I havent got thosands 2 to put into the engine just yet so i may do simple and easy stuff 1st. When i do the engine mate nothing less then supercharged or hot cam would be the best idea. Im under 25 so insurance is hard already so i think maybe later.

HeyHey
Nice car, well looked after....
If your looking for suggestions of new things to do...
(I could be biased cos im a spray painters GF lol) But i reckon a new paint job, the paint you've got looks in great nick, but nothing makes a car stand out more than an awesome paint job (eg look at my ride... before and after pics)
But if your more interested in keeping it original SS colour I compleltely understand.
sometimes completely changing colours can be a pain in the ass, we did it for mien and it involves painting in the door jams, boot etc. Another option is getting a pearl overlay for your white, you can get some pretty awesome looking stuff theese days
ANYWAY all just something to think about :D
Cheers
Tara
