I have to say the two cars are chalk and cheese I can find nothing to compare at all, I was and still am totaly surprised.
Sure the TII goes very well (rebuilt engine open zaust and a few other things) BUT this is like wow, that said the FD is\'nt exactly
stock either OHLIN fully adj. susp. mmmmmmm gos round corners
on rails, Blitz fmic and induction kit,boost controler,remote oil
filter,5x greedy peak hold gauges other bits I cant even remember
OH and did I mention the FULL knightsport body kit and twin
headlight conversion this has been a weekend I will never forget.

The FD is very quick although in a calmer way, it seems more sure footed,my FC seems to rush forward like a child running down a hallway but the fd seems more like an athlete on a track
I dont no if thats makes any sence....
STILL grinning Paul

Andy, a remote filter is where the filter itself has been moved from the OE location via some parts to an easy to get to location.

The kits are quite expensive, but can be made up fairly cheaply.
