i got the carbon bits from scoobyparts they are local to me and i know the lads that run it so i get a good discount. The rear spoiler is also carbon but with the sides and base painted white (evo style), im after a carbon chin spoiler to cover the bottom part of the fmic but cant find anyone that does them under £450? also i have some carbon mud flaps on order

The brakes are porsche 6 pots (brembos) with AP 355mm discs, had to space the wheels to fit the calipers, so then had to space the back ones aswell to match a right bugger to fit but make your eyes bleed when you want to stop quick!!

I thought I reconised them but was not fully sure, one of our local gang has a set fitted on his ra as well.... he has said he need to put a harness in the car as when he brakes he finds the belt uncomfortable so your not the only one finding the stopping power of this set up. 
very nice indeed

Nice car, are you running the the original 2.0l and close ratio box. As with fitting the 20g on a two litre there quite laggy and you would be better off with a roller bearing Vf 34 turbo for better spool up. As for injectors I'm not aware of a 650cc side feed injectors made for your perticular fuel rail as there are top feeds. 550cc injectors with a adjustable fuel pressure regulator and uprated fuel pump would be a better option.

My 20g is not laggy at all, just keep it above 4500 and you will make use of those brakes...
2 litre 20g and a few suspension bits on my hillclimber:

Who was the old hillclimber?

Love it! But I may be a tad biased owning a scarily similar beasty (95 sti type ra, 20k on the clock) even have the carbon spoiler on its way and Im painting the sides white too 
Whats the rest of your spec? Going for the 18G/550's though when I can, only aiming for ~380bhp and I think the 20G will be a bit too laggy?

Stunning RA mate. Very nice.
Not sure on the STi8 scoop, looks a tad outof place, but as you say, you have a FMIC fitted, perhaps not refit a black painted oem scoop?

Marshy;
This is my hillclimber, 20g and all that with a real 380 bhp not estimated.
Lag? No, just keep it on the boil, ie over 4500 and she will be ballistic.
With the right support bits, what a turbo, big and gutsy on a 2 litre.
