all caused by this wire routed round the intercooler

after 2 weeks of searching for the looms i came across rtoc, and got the dash loom and o/s h/l loom

dash going back in

dash mostly back in, but had been ripped apart by previous owner, most clips are broke, so new dash will be next after body work

ive just re sprayed my front bumper myself, fixed cracks, filled the holes and 2b fair it dont look half bad.... at the end of the day if it turns out crap atleast you`ve given it a go and can always get a propper sprayer 2 do it at a later date. :agree:

thanks, i didnt even know if it ran, but as it was a car ive wanted for ages, and i was on the look out for a turbo car, when this came up raider ment nothing to me, but knew it wasnt just a standard spec one

yer i have no clue what wheels they are ethier! tho be nice if i can find 16" or 17" ones of them


then i think im going to have it lowered,lower it at the back with the bar, and 35/40mm at the front hopefully get something like this
