Well halve the problem with buying a car unseen is taking great faith in the honesty of the seller and i can say im very happy car as described and personally like to thank Bombfish. no nasty surprises which is great, cars start hot n cold and no excessive smoke at all.

There are numerous small jobs todo before presenting for mot and and couple of biggies....need to get a clutch pedal as its on the floor and lighting doing some funny things.

Its dirty and tarnished due to be sat but a plethora of quality parts.

pics tell the story i cant do much till im fully fit but i manage a quick wash.





get some autosol in here and lashings of wd40.

haha yep all printed out for you! There is probably a very grubby old diagram of the new improved "rats nest" hoses in there.  Make sure you dig it out and take a digital copy for reference as I dont think i have one any more, and you might struggle to find much info on it.

Yeah will do. Gotta remember how to work the apexi as well.

Hi Jon, Welcome to the FD community  :-\ If you thought your pockets emptied quickly with the RX8's, watch out now you have an FD  :D

I've attached Apexi Manuals (I hope).

Just curious, I have seen some one using aftermarket PowerPlantFrame on their FD´s. And I remember Grant saying that original is crap... Anyone has any info about those aftermarket parts? Chris, Clive, Bobfish...?
