Looks great. Always loved that colour. What happened to your other one you had? The one with white 2118's? It was stunning tbh!
How do you find the H and R's? Im currently looking into coilovers for mine.

I bought it for a very low price. Turned out quite a few people wanted it, and a lad offered me a lot more money than I payed for it 3 weeks after I bought the car myself. He came the same night and bought it off me.
The H and R's are good. I would get the Spax RSX full coilover kit though if I was buying new or Bilstein.

I see. I was thinking about the bilsteins, its just while I was doing some reading, quite a lot of them need rebuilding at 6k!
Got anything planned for this then?

Began to clean up the inlets/plenum and detailed other parts ready for its big detail. Will get a video of the induction roar at some point. It sounds very nice.

im surprised you would want a VTR and this as a road car, wouldnt the fuel efficient, softer VTR be better as a daily?
It looks great though mate! i look forward to updates.

As with all your cars, looks outrageously clean! I like it. Plans sound simple yet will make a big difference!

Simply stunning Harry I've never been a fan of cups as I'm sure I told you when i bought your wheels but they are really starting to grow on me and yours is a lovely example.
Cool track pics too!
