Hope to be going to that - need to check what else is happening - as it\'s mad season on party\'s and Christmas shopping :(
 
Cab is going well - not got the eManage plumbed back in yet - been to busy with decorating the house - so close now.  The eManage should see me close to 300BHP and I will be able to get that electric Volvo rad in and the larger secondaries :cheers
 
I just have to learn to drive it on the drag strip :rollin

i have now found a good price on new 48IDA\'s and even with a new manifold it works out about £60 - 100 less than the 51 i think this will suit my engine better as recormended first off!
one way or another we will be IDA next year!!!!

T11 coil turned up today so im going to try the direct fire set up, should be interesting other people have found better starting and smoother idle, some say they have a performance increase other say none but a easy upgrade non the less

Got some white dials the other day wasn\'t sure about them but they were cheap and i have 3 or 4 sets of clocks so i can always swap them back,
i got them fitted and quite like them, just a shame i my camera broke so its a mobile photo but they are brighter than the standard ones

just scored some Noltec top mounts, these should really help with the set up of the car for some track days (once i get the rear bushes sorted!!) these strut plates permit 20mm negative/10mm positive camber and 10mm positive/10 mm negative caster adjustment :Thumbsup!

red bump steers with blue top mounts on a yellow car???? *holds head in hands*  you\'ll find yourself driving along one day wearing a red pointy hat with a bell on the end, look to the passenger seat and see Big Ears yelling for more brap!!!!!
Everyone wants to be like ArchBish,
Cos the Bish is never glum.
Its hard to be unhappy

more new bits!
my new headlights arrived this week (would of been handy for the tunnel run)
i was considering HID\'s but cant justify £100 really for how much i use the car at night have just put them on and the difference is amazing, here\'s a shot with the left one being the new headlight. the light is far crisper and i would say at least 40 - 50% better one of the best upgrades i have done so far
