Managed to get the axle back on tonight along with my Gizfab panhard rod not properly adjusted yet only by eye will get a full geo setup once it’s back on the road Then moved on to the rad had issues with the original grommets fitting the half rad fitting kit so took some advice from @Claymore and sorted some other out cheers bud! Haven’t attached the hoses yet as I may get a different fan for the rad instead of the ones that cable tie through, also fitted the RW developments expansion tank -

So bit of a bigger update as haven’t posted in a while.. managed to source some livesports wings to fit the new wheel width still in gel coat yet to be painted also got the gearbox casing welded up where there was a crack then managed to finally get the engine in! Feels a shame to be covering up the ORC clutch & fly 😭 gave the gearbox a clean and sprayed it black then mocked up the turbo and manifold, also fitted the new catch can and lines along with the Cusco brake stopper now that the abs & p/s are out the -
Another update, Bought some Reflet rear tail lights in from Japan. Happy with the condition, gave them a good clean and then polished them up. Only change I had to make to the bulbs was to put orange indicators in. Came out really well and make a great difference to the look of the back of the car. Also bought a replacement 96 Glanza front grill badge made by a lad on one of the facebook groups to replace my original that I had a go at refurbing. I thinks it looks great, really good to see people reproducing discontinued parts.

Heres some pics from Japfest at Silverstone last weekend. A good turnout of starlets, It was good to meet and chat to a few of the owners. The car drove the 300 mile round trip faultlessly very pleased.
