Was wondering how people are getting on with their mods as we get to nearly a quarter of the way through the year. Completed already, changed plans - adding new ideas or ditching other ones ??

For me - brakes done, and talked a lot about the whiteline bits & required items for 340bhp but not done anything with those yet.

Was looking at when my 6month oil/water change was due, and realised the cars has done a whole 1200miles in the last 6 months - ooops, if going to spend the money on it better use a little more !!

Thankfully it was a great price secondhand i should hopefully be able to sell my apexi power fc, apexi avcr and z32 maf for more than i got the simtek :D

Well I was thinking off selling but have decided the RB5 will be staying since I got bored between crimbo and new year and bought a few very expensive parts rolleyes.gif I have the engine now all I need is trasmission to cope and I will hopefully have a RB500 biggrin.gif The car will also be going off the road for a few shortly while I get rid of the rust and give her a full respray wink.gif

I have actually stuck to the plan and the car has come off the road and this is how it looked this morning
