Thanks Don, you will have to get upto santa pod this year and run the rx down the track!
there\'s no way you can get a series 1 to sit any lower and make it driveable so im happy with it just want the new shocks on it now!

about time :2Rolleyes

tell me about it, i got a promotion last year at work which just means more work so finding the time has been hard,
hardly gonna set the world alight with it but should give me a little bit more umf!:3gears-rh

[t2rew]

should sound pretty good too

[mpk490p]

yes might even go for a large jap style back box, the noise level is just right at the mo though so it could be a gamble, like the look though

been busy shopping just ordered some angel eye headlights, these should help me see at night now as the orignals are preety poor even with uprated bulbs, these use xenon bulbs so that should help and it also has a sidelight bulb (as shown)
toying with the idea of fitting a sleepy eye switch also (i know its not to everyones taste but its got to help with airflow and i think it will look good with just the angel eye ring on)
also ordered a new back box, one of these universal ones but with a removeable silencer which should help as ive a feeling it will be v load without!

[Don Pamponi]

I gt a can like that but slash cut.  It IS loud without the baffle!

Where are the lights from?  I\'d like to upgrade from standard, had been thinking of ditching the pop ups in favour of the bubble type.

[mpk490p]

i have seen a kinda bubble type will have to do some digging!
the ones i saw were a double light with a perspex flat cover,
you can get the ones i brought pretty much anywhere as there just a standard 7" replacement i got mine from the US as they worked out cheaper

i will find the recpit if your have trouble finding some:Thumbsup!

Yeah, sounds like what I saw too.  My car goes off to RX motors this thursday for the steering conversion.  I\'m kinda nervous.  I think i must be Tim\'s most difficult customer!  I\'ve been nagging a bit I think (" and make sure you paint this bit, polybush that, save me these bits".....)
