Is anyone interested in my HT autos front splitter and upgraded grille.
Prefer the look without the splitter and I am reverting back to the original grille.

open to sensible offers.

PM me if you are interested

Hi again, here is the brace fitted, it's a great bit of kit and only takes 30 mins to fit ;-) well worth the money!! I had Abbey motorsport re check the set up after and all was good. I noted that Litchfields have added a strut brace to their handling pack so it must be good LOLCheers Ian

Not 100% certain as to whats caused it yet I've had 12,000 miles of trouble free motoring with the forged engine, could be a a crack in the head/Headstud failure I.E overstretched over a long period of time but thats unlikely to be fair but cant rule it out.

It's not overheated it sat at it's highest point of 94 deg c when sat idle and when on the move a steady 88 deg c but its throwing water out of the expansion bottle and looks quite murky will pull the motor and have a look and see why.

I think that is my old car!? I have a wee lump in my throat looking at it.
I love my GTR but still miss the hatchback.
I would love to know if it was mine and has gone to a good home.
