looking fantastic gary. I love the feeling of a fresh build.

I was looking at those ram effect induction kits, are you concerned about water getting in there ?

More details! This is my equivalent of the GF's 'soaps', and I won't be short-changed!

Not a brilliant video as the camera decided to zoom itself. Either that or some hand fisted plonker mucked it up. This was early in the day as I mucked the camera up all together after
Note the Subaru at the end of the vid

:: northloop.co.uk :: we're not playing games ::

The car feels very well poised. Just the slightest hint of understeer and oversteer only when I want it. Needs a quicker rack but that's not the end of the world. Brakes were great once I set the bias in the correct position.

Power wise I was again amazed. Stock engine, been to the moon and back with just a good service to it. I had two runs down the 1 mile straight with sub 1000kg golfs with circa 200bhp and we were neck and neck. So the old girl must be pretty light. You can see one of these runs on the video too.

Very pleased.
