It's ok it'll be in a bonded storage unit until the import duty is paid and then it'll be on it's way down to Leeds for the necessary prep, VOSA test and then it's down to the DVLA to register it.
I know how rare these wheels are and how much a replacement new set would be, around £3000 inclusive.

Thanks Simon, as long as he keeps the Somali pirates away all will be good.
My carbon fibre mud flaps, Hella Supertone horns plus the red Samco radiator hoses have arrived.
Just the red Samco engine ancillary hose set to arrive, plus I'm trying to source a quality set of front and rear strut braces - some from Summit Racing or Ultra Racing should fit the bill.

They are about the best on the market along with Summit Racing, I got a good deal and trying to find used was proving impossible.
Well not too long, and at least GTA 5 will help pass the time.
Thanks Simon, as soon as I've got it back all completed I'll have to pop down and see you.

It'll be having some poly bushings to tighten it up somewhat and replace what are likely to be worn / perished bushes given there likely to be 11 years old.
If I can improve upon what I know the S202 is capable of, I'll be very happy indeed.

I'm thinking more of the subframe, diff carrier and chassis related mounting bushes with uprated poly items.

That's what I'm thinking Simon, although all the suspensions arms are the uprated STi pink items (not even the Spec C models had them as standard), so hopefully it'll just be a case of getting new bushes fitted if required.
