    you are allowed to remove rear seats but you have to remove the seatbelts as well I think. Its only legal if you then go to vicroads and have your car registered as a 2 seater.

    fitted new strut tops, which (finally) arrived 3 weeks after buying them off one of our forum members!!!

    Was going to drop the front a tad more for SEDF, but bahhhhh comfort over looks won, besides there's a few other changes on the beast since DOVW anyway....

    Got the coil replaced, and wow! what a difference a propper spark makes (yeh, I know, stating the obvious )

    Much better throttle response now, crisp.
