Update on car, well shes 110% mechanically bang on, wel I dunno if you'd use that term, maybe cowboy would suit better haha but I hav'nt been this happy with that end of things since brought car home from being ran in & mapped end of 2010.
Suspension wise I'm at bout 95%, happy with that also (last piece of the jig-zaw) for the mindriftworks poly bushes for hubs where toe arms connect to
having bit of trouble getting them in, so popped them in2 warm water
Then had bit luck, in ya go
Plan to seem weld the car in winter along with upgrading the cage so still in 2 minds bout this expanding foam, sure I might do the subframe anyways, time will tell
The car needs new brake pads so gonna try take out the trolley during the wk
All criticism welcome lads, like ta know where I'm goin wrong, thanks

Update time, suspension is now 110% sorted too. Wasnt as lucky as others wen fittin subframe, it was jus slighty hittin the body but nothin the nissan hammer or sledge wouldnt sortthink il get new anti-roll bar bushes & for drop links. no point cuttin corners at this stage
As was saying badly need brake pads so
New uprated PBR pads all round (was gonna go EBC redstuff but no matter what pads are there the hydro wont be shy bout lockin the wheels so there 100% !!)
New Brembos discs drilled & grooved all round!
Massive thanks to Steve (SC86) for help on this 1, absolute gentleman to deal with & very helpful!!
