    Steering wheels done, had some more stickers done for it too. All I need to do is sort the seat out and it's good to go

    Next stop Donington in the 14th Dec. before then I've got a clicking cv to sort out and I've scored a pair of 888's for the front.

    Probably do a lot better moving from those wheels to something light and around 15in with 888's. I bet they weigh a ton.

    Some 15" wheels do fit over them but it's tight

    Better sticking to 16" with them even some 16" wheels are tight
    Would get better tyre choice with the 15's thou

    This is the cold air box I made to keep the hot air in the engine bay away from the air filter
