Righty ho, after having the engine fitted at the weekend, i thought id start a progression post so you can see just how much my car has changed since i brought it in Jan 2006!
Here it is completly standard when i brought it, with 51k on the clock, and a tiny bit of rust on the back arch
Then i started collecting bits, brought the skirts and arches at FITP 2006 lol!
Then i borrowed some wheels, and it confirmed my thoughts of white wheels! I think these are on marks poooma now
Sooo i picked up these for £90 on ebay in brizzol
Then they went white, and wrapped in yoko a539's
Next was some fillering (damn car park dinks!!) and fitting the arches
And what it looked like when it came out the bodyshop
Some muchly needed suspension...spax 35mm
And the difference.... (plus wheels on!)
Before
After
New plates
The splitter for show
Had to wait till finances allowed, but then came this....2ltr
Some new parts
And finally the conversion piccies from this weekend, massive massive thanks to jam and terry for their huge amounts of hard work

The stripped 2ltr
And the superstars
