Default 1 YEAR OF SAVING - RESULTS :-)

Hi. Thought I would share with you guys because I'm very happy. Whole last year I was saving money (It wasn't easy. I am a father of one 3 years old and another baby on the way :-) ) and getting new parts, one by one. That's what I managed to get so far:

- Exedy Anti Judder 230mm Pink Box ( Lateral Performance )
- Lightweight Billet Steel Flywheel 6Kgs ( Lateral Performance )
- WALBRO 255 fuel pump ( Lateral Performance )
- Whiteline rear Droplinks ( Scoobyparts )
- EIBACH P1 Springs ( WOODBUTCH on here)
- Front and rear Grooved discs ( Godspeedbrakes )
- Front and rear Kevlar pads ( Godspeed )
- HEL Braided Hose Kit ( Godspeed )
- 4 pot calipers ( EBay ) - Refurbished by myself
- Stainless Steel caliper pistons ( Subaru Solutions )

Now what I need is, to book a few days holidays and fit all these parts :-)

Good job mate it's nice to see that some people still take the time to save for the things they want rather than chucking it all on credit
