Thanks man!! She has come along way but alot more to go :) wheels are 19x8.5 running 235/45/ tyres. Theres about 10mm each side of the tyre in the rear wheel arch but no scrubbing issues unless you go up curbs on the angle. Actually picked up the wheels on ebay brand new with tyres shipped to my door for $1300

MSD universal leads set came. Must say what an awesome kit it is. 8.5mm leads came with the little tool to cut, strip and crimp the leads and it all worked so perfect. Ive pretty much been threw the whole engine bay wiring neatening things up. I haven't had much $$ latterly as im going on a holiday next month so all my funds have been going to that and ive found out its 4 week wait on K-frame spacers :( Good timing I guess tho.




Also gave the interior a good clean and scrubbed the carpets down. Its surprising very clean for a x tradys car

I like my stickers :(
I used the brackets mace supplied in the intercooler kit but customised them abit and ran a earth to the block. It pretty tight down there as you can see but kinda hides them away when looking from the front
