Looks tidy, don't lift off in the corners. If in doubt... flat out! The words of a true legend |

Probably the reason it is a bit twitchy is down to the wheels, 7x13 at a guess and with a big offset. These will not be helping, however I'm guessing you like the look.

Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:
Yep I agree with TD........ |

also check the front subframe mountings, its worth ditching them for non rubber ones. On 28th Aug, 2011 Kean said:

I bet my first wank came quicker than your first mini turbo These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder. On 15th Aug, 2011 robert said:
