Not really an update, but FCS tickets arrived today and I booked the car back in the body shop to get a couple more bits done.
Only plans before FCS is to space out rears by 12mm and fit a double din headunit. After that progress will slow a bit as im moving next month too.

no spacers on there at the moment, but I have some 12mm hub centric ones
goin on at the weekend. and before you
ask no they don't rub without spacers, I've got about 10 mm gap between wheels and inner arch.

Sure thang:
Linky
They do SFS hosing which is a bit better than unbranded, but I got some from "JS" hosing which Ive never heard of haha. I got 1 bit at 60mm and another at 120mm for £15 including postage, which isnt toooo bad for some silicone bits. Cheaper than what I found on eBay anywho

I don't remember if I've ever said before but my god I've got a lot of love for this mate! The wheels have made my panties very moist!! I loved them when they were on Sam's Venetian and you've done a really good job with the colours!

thanks mate, VTS engine will never happen.
a, everyone has one or wants one.
b, I don't need the power.
c, if I had the power u couldn't really use it apart from on really really smooth surfaces because of how low it is.
I will however put a fast road kam in the R and then get it rolling roaded and a remap. ( just so I'm a little bit different from a standard r)

haha cheers rich. clearance is good now I think. the road seems to have worn away what it needs to lol, but it a chunky bit of metal so there's no risk of serious damage. and what
you mean you got forced
to go 16v?

That's good to know mate. I was originally going to turbo my furio engine which was so reliable without a problem but all my mates kept saying it would be easier if we put an s engine in which they did with me, I wouldn't of done it if they didn't offer lol.
