As for the build i currently have to: 1. Get the side skirts on but need to raise it as i won't be able to get into my car park ha! 2. Thinking a complete overhaul with the front suspension as in wishbones, arms etc etc 3.Fancy another set of wheels 4. Paintwork is in a bad way since we had bad weather last month and the car was sitting for 2 weeks it got mashed by tree branches etc and scratches everywhere. 5. ABS is having issues 6. Airbag light is on for no reason 7. Need a guide on how to remove the steering wheel as i have a nardi snap off item but i can't get the wheel off the rack splines :(

Keeping both cars Stu :) Yeah looking at a fresh import from DCY Europe, Already been tuned and body mods, can get pics if anyone wants to see. Already done insurance and its £1000, which is odd because i got a quote on a R35 gtr for £800 hahaha with admiral aswell ! Yeah would like a bit more power from the Lex but at the moment its just a car for normal driving when im at home, No daily commute for me or anything like that.

Oh and before people think im a hooligan with a big exhaust its a HKS Super Silent Hi-Power so its very quiet but improves over the standard unit :D
-
Stu, Thanks man :) Yeah been pretty busy and still have a heap of odd bits in the cupboard haha The headlights are just a yellow film and thought it's a bit different :) Ride height is too low at the moment so gonna raise it sometime soon as it can be a bit much on bumpy roads ha! John, I actually have a TTE supercharger kit in my cupboard also haha / But i need info on the fitting etc as a performance garage i spoke to gave me a list of things i need to upgrade and some are a nightmare. When i first insured it, it was £1000, after the started putting mods on it peaked at £1400 I've recently got my 1 years no claims and it dropped to £600 haha ! Think being 23 and 1 year NCB helped alot :D Which is also why im buying an R32 GTR in February :)
