    Martin @ MB Automitive had removed the engine for the new forged parts within an hr of it being dropped off & shown me some welding issues that was to be tidied up.
    so whilst the engine was out, an ideal time to crack on with a few other bits like a bay tidy up.

    this soon went a little like plague in over the whole car...

    Alot of prep work done I made sure I was involved taking days off work to travel an hour to the car everyday. Stripping parts, cutting, grinding, sanding, flatting & help from friends too with the spraying, polishing & masking off. I shouldnt have done really as say 5 days of my time @ 350.00 per day at work has not taken anything off the bill at all.

    Fair play, from the fucking nail you started with it looks bloody awesome.

    Pretty mega spec, serious spend, but straight out there at Lydden so 100% fair play to you, as that's what drifting is all about, err, drifting, lol.

    Keep up the good work.
