    Been quiet around these parts. Have had a few things cooking but nothing worth writing home about.

    Completed;

    Upgraded headlight bulbs from 45/40W to 100/90W - Oh what a difference!
    The door cards have been refurbed with new JOM chrome handles and all the good bits.
    Decided to sell the winter wheels
    Bought some ATS Cups that are currently getting some attention at Neales Wheels
    Found that the rear end clunk was the bolt holding the strut in on the passenger rear - oops
    New plastic bumpers arrived from the UK and look tits
    Fitted the open single headlight grille and it makes a world of difference to the cooling effect
    Picked up a 24mm front sway bar
    Installed remote rear view mirrors driver and passenger sides

    So that still leaves a list - with a few different items added;

    Custom intake pipe and breather diversion to catch can - Alex will sort it
    Front tow hitch (76 models dont have one) - Preeny said he will make me one
    Further guard flaring/rolling so I can get some tuck - Alex will sort it
    New and stiffer gearbox mount - been slack and not done it yet
    Paint some components under the hood (cam cover, strut brace) to tidy it up a little
    Possibly remove and replace the tints
    285mm brake kit upgrade - waiting on them to ship from the UK
    Source the front sway bar mounting hardware - from whiteline when I get time
    Order new golfball gear knob

    I am looking into some semi's for the 7" wheels for the track/everyday use, but, I think that this might not be the wisest thing to do. Still weighing it up.

    Was doing some more TV work a week or so ago too...

    I learnt about o2 sensors today. Pretty pleased with the results from my education as well.

    Interior should be completed over Easter.

    Sounds like its a lot healthier in that clip you sent me.. Nice work dude. Glad that's sorted out.

    I have access to a basic o2 sensor too if you want to give it a whirl instead of my Innovate wideband.. It's a sensor and analogue display type.. My Uncle told me he has it today.

    I'll send those plugs off tomorrow. I was going to do it today and then I got hell busy.... Sorry mate.
