So I've been driving this about on the road since Saturday. Absolutely deaf as a post and shook to bits, but went to Tullow today for a few cheeky skids to cheer me up. As it stands to get it through the nct I have to raise it up and quiten it down a lot, but everything else should be good to go.
A shot of three of the Drift Shed cars at Tullow today

Have been getting this thing ready for it's NCT as of late, and generally farting about on the roads avoiding checkpoints and scraping the exhaust off everything, and complaining about the lack of cup holder for my coffee. The exhaust was clearing most things until I fitted an ECV which spaced the exhaust closer to the ground by an inch or so, which mean't I had to raise the car up a bit at the front. The car looks shit now so I may sort something else out. Maybe one of those Y-pipe divert valve things? I had to fit the ECV just after the car because it's the only place on the exhaust with a flange, I have heard it'll be more effective if I fit it further down the exhaust, but that would mean having to get two flanges welded in somewhere.
I have a roof spoiler and series 2 rear lights on the way for the car, and hopefully will be getting some form of colour change done pretty soon.
What do people do for door cards once they fit a cage? I re-fitted half the back seat which has cut down the amount of road noise a bit, and door cards make a huge difference so I would like to fit some.
Random pictures...

I forgot to put up the photos that Awesomesauce took one evening. Stephen turned up expecting to take pictures of the car when it had grey bits and 527's on, and found it tarted up and with 526's on. I think he was disappointed. lol
Here's a couple of samples and the link to the full album..

Much left to do for nct greg
Not really. Quiten it down, raise it up, make everything secure as in the kit, front indicators, stuff like that.
Nice let us know what they say about the cage
Do you have door bars welded in? Think thats the only issue as far as nct and cages go
Yeah, it's all welded. Your man in the local centre said it would be fine once all the welds are good and the cage was built by a professional.
Haven't updated this in a while, but did a quick one on DW, so just copying that here, so some of the info will be old news here. :)
It's been a while... Kind of lost interest in updating forums and stuff, specially since all the Prodrift pictures went arseways for some reason but here's a load of updates... Mostly pictures.... some writing..
Basically, I've spent the last few months tidying the car up mechanically and getting it through an NCT. Never really bothered completely fixing the bodyork, but did bash out the quarter, painted bits grey, then black again... changed wheels, lowered it, drifted it, and generally drove it about. Flirted with selling it for a while but it's hard to sell it really as it's quite hardcore for the road. It's currently parked at home looking sorry for itself while I change more bits. Anyway, pictures...
