Hoping to be middle of september. Then if that all goes well a trackday in november is provisionally booked at snetterton so fingers crossed all goes to plan.
Few more bits on way. Dad found some sort after suspension bushes for the rear end. Unfortunaley due to noise ive had to ditch the itb's and go to a normal manifold. But in normal snodhurst fashion its no normal manifold also being fitted with a 75mm throttle body. Race fuel tank and swirl pot already there so may have a bit of a quite spell for a few weeks then it will be full speed ahead.

Yes, would be shame. It's a fine looking example too. A rare car on the road these days.

I test drove one before I bought my Civic and really liked it, just couldn't justify one new.
