Thanks for the positive comments, was a bit fearful of putting up since I loved my MG to bits, first day of doing the usual work run, lets see how this thing works/plays/handles
Ave got a wee shopping list for it already: - Refub Alloys possibly mid to dark anthricite grey
- New rubber shoes, as I have 3 different makes of tyres
- lowered on Eibach proline springs - 40mm drop
But in the longer term, will be doing the following: - Remap to around 280-300Bhp, which includes Exhuast/Filter/Front Mount etc (Proper not claimed!)
- Paint work (RS Rear diffuser, Poss RS spoiler)
- Polybush it
- Bigger brakes
- Leather Recaros

nice car, good colour, im sure you will have it pristine asap.
it is a good engine for tuning , trouble is as soon as you ramp up the boost you get the awful front wheel drive, turbo torque, traction difficulties.

Chris's ST kept eating driveshafts, never did hear what happened to it or if he even has it anymore. Last time I saw it it had some DC wrap going on as he was into doing the Modball runs.

Well not a major update but I nice one, Some of you probably seen my Facebook pics, but those who didn't here they are.
I bought these wheels from a seller on Gumtree and them delivered to me on Friday night, cheaper than refurbishing my own alloys and getting new tyres!!
Team Dynamics/RIMSTOCK Jade R (8.5J x 19") ET42
Getting lowered this week too, by 40mm!
