Hey mate thanks for your comments!

Yeah it has had an eventful life! Funny thing is, I have only driven it probably 150km in the 4 years I have owned it!! I love it anyway, spent so many hours on it now it feels like its part of the family :-)

btw, I am working on a mod to make uploading images easier :) in the mean time I suggest uploading them to flickr and then just putting a link to them :)

Updates!

Brought 2 boxes of 12at gear the other day, lots of spares now and most of the little things I was missing! (like the wastegate actuator...) yay!





Ends up the turbo is the earlier 160hp model, but thats no problem as I have a good 165hp one too :D

The red car' front fender looks soooooooooo nice right... If you lived in Sweden I would've been on my way to it allready! But seriously, this just can't go wrong :)

I dont know if you are able to do this but:

Could you measure this length for me, please?

Seriously you dont want to know... :| I need to hire a logistics firm just to keep up with all the shit I have!!

Thats only half of the cars I have wrecked!!! (more pics to come :P)

The prob in NZ is no-one wants HB's. When I buy a parts off people they tell me to take the rest of the car with me! hahaha
