Well these turned up today Nankang NS-2R's I managed to get second hand off eBay for a total of £120. Basically brand new so will get these fitted before the cars mapped -
Any idea's on how to fit an air filter to my top mount kit? Space is very tight coming off the turbo next to the power steering pump. I've removed my ABS so the perfect place to put the filter would be there. Thinking a 45deg off the turbo, and then onto a 90deg alloy pipe then onto the filter?

First of the few updates came today! Innovate oil pressure and temp gauge! Thought it was worth while investing in one of these! I've also ordered a sandwich plate so will fit and wire up everything this weekend -

Managed to get some time to spend on the car over the weekend! Finished wiring and plugging in everything to/from the engine and filled her up with fluids! To my surprise there was 0 leaks! Cranked her over and got oil pressure but soon after my battery died! So I've stuck that on charge, and will hopefully have her running next weekend! I have ordered a few bits which should arrive early next week so I'll update when they arrive -
Glad it wasn't anything major bud! Car looks the nuts on track!

Went and purchased the innovate dual oil pressure and temp gauge in the end!

Little bit of progress today, picked up yet another bumper just because it was the correct colour and had already been trimmed to fit a large intercooler. As my intercooler now has a rear entry it required new mounting points so me and my mate set about making some new brackets. All mounted up nicely, just need to cut a small section away so the rear entry pipe work will fit and connected onto the turbo. Then we got the bumper mounted up. Love it! Unfortunately it's a different shade of white so i will get it resprayed at some point or maybe get the hole car done depending on the
