So is anyone making any "special" preparation to their car for this day then?

I`m busy getting the front bumper sorted...my car has no front at the moment and is looking a bit fed up in my garage LOL

Piston perhaps on the way out?

Only kidding..
Does everyone know that Prosport will get you to sign a disclaimer?
If it goes POP on the rollers it will be at your own risk...

Bumper is being rubbed down and strengthened, and I`m doing it all myself to save some money.
Nige is kind enough to let me use his place.

Wah, you could have done without that....
At least the engine is safe now.

Chaz, have you gone power mad?
Dont forget the clutch in your budget...
A slightly better one set me back ££380 fitted... and that was cheap.
