na i should've taken the camera with me but typical me i didn't
well.....
rear sway bar fitted
drive shaft checked (coupling is making a rubbing sound on acceleration)
hydraulic handbrake plumbed in
center console to be fitted
tacho wire hooked up
acc wire found
front struts removed for slight mods
cold air box templates
gear boot to be made
seat mounts to be made
clutch resovour fitted and bleed line
flywheel inspection plate made
there's probobly more but can't remember so its just little things really now
may have to fit another resonator in the exhaust its quite loud but it's got a nice note to it but i'll see what the cert man has to say about that first
is it worth me putting up some pics and video or should i wait for the new forum

go for it man....post away your pics
its EASY as to just copy and paste your posts/pics back into the DOCNZ forum when it comes back.
Id be more than happy to play with your wiring lol.
why do you need a flywheel inspection plate?
dont think your allowed a hydraulic handbrake for street cars?
hit up either Chris or Grens partners for a gearbox boot lol....I know Erin does.....and I think Grens missus does too....not sure
