Its been such a drain in the funds department and the car still haven't seen the road yet.Been spending and buying loads of stuff just to get the car finished!

The new rear lateral bar are on thanks to Paul@Zen for pointing it out that the previous ones were wrong.Cheers mate.

And finally for the now...the clip of the engine running with the Front Mounted Turbo.
The engine is sounding sweet and there are just a few snaggings to fix before i get the car back for doing the running in next week.

Looking good peter, well worth torque marking the nuts on the lateral arms so you know if the nuts loosen be prepared for the front drop links to start banging very quickly, I am thinking of looking for an alternative on mine because of the noise
