best comments ive read so far were you should fit 708s to a vtr

I have only got round to reading this thread and nominate anyone but me lol. But thanks for the nomination guys. I would tend to say avoid any one that is on here partly for a living. Such as engine tuners and tuning parts supplies. Whoever is picked it must be some one who really wants to or there is no point. Itsafasworld85 wants to so it I say let him. I think he would be quite good at it and not just take the piss.
