Right bit of an update
Car is now being slowly put back together, there was (as with a lot of newage and gc8 scoobs, so check yours!) rust up inside the rear arch right up on the outter part by the strut top! So couple of days spent cutting, making plates, welding, painting, seam sealing the rear arches so now she is completly solid shell!!
Then the whole rear end was put back on with the missing poly bushes, cleaned / serviced calipers, new ds2500 pads, diff guard, oh and the new wheels test fitted ;-) plus new goodridge braded hoses
Then was on to the front end, newage sti frame powder coated, plus arms, cusco arb, sti spec c quick rack, custom made steering uj, all new poly bushes so now completly polybushed!! Also white line anti lift kit
Next will be all the custom fuel and brake lines, engine drop in etc

No engine bay is staying like that now just clean and presentable
I didn't put daves name down for doing the cage ad spray as he said he didn't want to advertise? As I offered to have his name on the car also!

Dave doesn't need to advertise but its nice to let people know who done what so they can make a choice if they wanted the same work done
,,,at the start of the thread it states built by carandcustomgarage and that can be misleading with regard to the cage and spraying mate ,,I know dave wouldn't be worried mate but its just nice to let people know who's done good work

Thred also states it went over to Wales to have the cage and re spray done and I didn't want to splash some ones name over an open forum
When they said they didn't want to?

Sorry mate can't seem to see where it says its going over to Wales to have the cage and spraying done ,,, but if dave had a problem with posting stuff up on a open forum then its news to me as he has been fine with me doing it as you can see by the add on bbs,,,,,one of the reasons he done such a good deal for you and maz was so others could see his work as he normally only deals with rally cars not track cars
