its being preped for an engineers report, im currently trying to get some holes patched up and some intercooler piping made up, (going no holes).

then i have to fix up the front doors ( i couldnt unlock the car before :S and the windows didnt stay up (going electric) passenger seat needs to be bolted down properly, adjust fuel pressure, prime the oil and crank her over (hasnt been started in months maybe a year now) get some tuning done for 660cc injectors and a bigger AFM (the ones i have now are to limited) and then get my report and head on down to regency,

being me unlucky and all i keep runing into other problems and this is why its taken so long, with tax money hopefully ill have the hole done soon and the piping :D wish me luck :D
