Car is back from Wal and has been for compliance test.
Failed on rear brake balance and exhaust leak.
Wal will be here tomorrow to weld up the exhaust.
And I'm 90% sure I fixed the brake balance today. :grin:

So will take it back in Monday morning and see if it's all good.

Also cut the spring perches off the Z31 struts today, ready for the coil over treatment.

Looking for hubs to suit now... anyone got anything?
Also some 26mm thick skyline or z32 discs and calipers.

I believe some news is to be shared?
