So then, got the car taxed last Monday, everything was fine, drives well, no problems except the shit exhaust that is on it and doesn't fit properly catches everything and blows badly.

But on Thursday I had to go to where I'll be starting work tomorrow, to fill in forms, got the end of the road of where I was going and could smell a really strong petroly smell, about 200 yards away from where I needed to go I carried on, then it started misfiring bad, pulled up and it stalled, luckily where I had to park, anyway ran inside because I didn't want to be late and there was petrol everywhere, got back to car phoned AA, got towed home, and one of my injectors hadn't been fitted properly by my dad when we put car back together and had popped out, so a new seal, popped it back in and it was fine.

Anyways next weekend, it'll be coming off the road for 3-4 weeks as I don't get paid until end of month and due to being out of work I can't renew my insurance... So I'll be putting my 50mm springs on, manifold and exhaust and my omex rev limiter.

Will also be respraying and getting new tyres for my vts alloys when funds allow, any ideas on colour?
