Nah guys, my cars not low, the manifold will never get near the ground and it's not built to be rallied.

jpsaxo 10th October 2010 21:39

Just been down to brands hatch and back in the mango today, feels much better with the manifold fixed, especially the mid range :)

jpsaxo 20th October 2010 20:27

Proper update, pics will do the talking.

5th points on both harnesses.



Wheel cover

josh, seen a few of the CF plates recently, are the legal then?

adamskiTNR 20th October 2010 21:45

Those cross members are to die for. Structural carbon fibre is just porn

Haha true true!

They technically arent legal because they arent reflective, but if you dont act and drive like a dick then you should have any issues tbh...

Yup yup, its really hard to get mango to come up reflective, id go as far as saying the car is now as clean if not cleaner than when i had the PFC mag shoot a couple of years back.

Tom has done a cracking job thats for sure!
