Thanks guys. Insurance, a fucking bomb but worth it in my opinion. I might buy a daily driver soon though so I can cancel this otherwise I will be skint every day of the week! Streetracer what you trying to say?

Update - 20th June 2009

I started off by fitting some brand new headlights to get the car looking a bit fresh from the front.

Previous look:

Then found that the easiest would be with removing the bumper.

Old vs. New:

Then remembered I got a nice new WEPR Intercooler sitting about, so why not whack it on I thought?

CRN grooved discs with yellow stuff pads, £118 well spent on ebay, very fast delivery. Sometimes they do feel a little spongy, but they are still being bedded in so can't comment much further on them. Fitting wise they are excellent and easy to fit.

Those 3G's look nasty but you cant call them shit you dont know how long they been on there or the usage of them!!

You just bought discs and pads for less than £120, can see a bit of "buy cheap, buy twice" coming on now. Be good to see how they handle over 200hp :)

The clutch is being fitted at my cousins garage tomorrow as I don't have the time for it, and the other goodies will be fitted over the weekend all being well, and I'll hopefully give her a service as well.
