Gorgeous mate!
How much did the new brake line set up cost? Do you have manual control over the bias?

A few hundred quid for all the fittings and the bias valve. Bling stuff is NOT cheap! One day I went to earls and bought one fitting and it was £18!!
Yea I have a bias valve too so manual control...
The spraying was done by SGM, the same guys that did my roof. They always do a great job and their workmanship is second to none. I got them to do a lot of work at once so it wasn't that cheap, but then it wasn't expensive considering the time it took, how fiddly it was, and also how well they've done it.
Hope that answers your questions!
Oh I think I need coilovers for the front too to lower it more. I like the back, but the front needs to be a *touch* lower I reckon.

Few hundred ain't bad considering it will last forever!
Did you fit them all yourself? Easy job?
Also where have you hidden your wiring loom?

Yea I refitted the cage and re did all my own brake lines. It is kinda easy when you know how-this is the first time i've done brakes!
The cage was an arse to manouvre back in without scratchin anything though-hard work but worth it!
The wiring has been finished tonight actually, it's as invisible as I can make it so far...i'll get pics up tomorrow hopefully.

the quickshift is a TAS one that I polished myself using tools. I got it from GMC about 3 years ago now when I first bought the saxo brand new!
