For £250 you could probably find a VF35..... Just a thought. no need to map to within an inch of its life either then as a nice safe map would show good gains.

Coilovers are by far the best mod I have ever done to a scoob, totally transforms them.

Kosta if I knew you was after this kind of stuff you could have swapped some bits of my old car (was no good for the spec C). It had the full whiteline/AST catalogue and was used for 500 mile before I sold it, cost a small fortune
