i think this is going to be quite a slow moving project as the snow has come back and i have been quite busy with work and a lack of funds and time to get stuff done so its not lowered yet.
but imaway to go into my 3rd year of my apprenticeship so i should have a bit more cash throw at it.
my plans for this year are to eventually get it lowered maybe a hydro handbrake.
possibly get a bit more steering lock depending on if i feel i need it or not
and go to as many drift days as possible
then maybe go for my BDC lisence either this year or next and start competing a bit ( if funds allow it lol)
so ill post up plenty of pics through the year of it in action hopefully and ill update it as much as i possibly can
so bare with me 340pw

but i did manage to get a hold of a reclinging bucket seat for the passenger side for £10 :mrgreen:
from the mechanic at my work and he also offered me a set of bbs alloys for £20 with tires which will do for sideways abuse
if they fit. he says they are from a rover but i think they fit onto his mk2 golf so they should fit.
anywyas
pics!!!!!!!

and the white was awesome untill i had my way with it as i had to get the rear arches flared to fit the wellers i got the panel beater at my work to do them ith a hameer and dolly and he made a reallt good job but it was a bit bumpy so i filled them and primed them and never got around to painting it so it just looked battered for a while lol and the front valance was mangled lol
