Got a new peice of the puzzle.. seen sw are making a subframe brace and wanted to replace my ultra racing one as its looking worse for were.
Here is the link and shout out to Sw as i ordred this on friday pm and it was here on Tue with a bank holiday

I dont think this is going to make a massive difference other than weight and it looks lodes better.

Quick clean today after the MOT I found my rear disks where a bit bad so cleaned them up and cleaned the car. 
1 post off page 3 what have I done.. suppose having the dog and an "almost complete" project car means things will slow down anyway my rear disks where looking a bit bad so.. thanks to Mtec 
Got some new disks and co-ord sport supplying the goods in the shape of some more pbs pads. No idea when they will he fitted but im just paiting them ready

That didnt work as it should took the car to work on friday and one of the rear calipers is sticky so need to fix that today also got some new parts inbound.. ive liked the idea of the bonnet risers so have bought the dark ice designs one instead of making my own because they also do a set for the mondeo which ill be getting and somebody was selling the subframe bushes new but 2nd hand so have bought them to but it might take a while to get them fitted.. but for now fix the sticky rear brakes..
Lol sorry buddy i supose you wanted the speedline tourinis ive just bought also lolYou got to the facebook £55 subframe bushes before melol

Booked a trackday at Donington had to do a midnight clean
Had a good sighting lap and 2 sessions.. here is my last one.
And the engine water pipe split
So i managed to get some liquidmetal on it and took it home and tonight have ordred a new hose and a service kit with a sump gasket as mine is leaking and getting worse.

Well what a lode of shi* this has become.. 
Got the sump all cleaned abd back on then painted the bracket.
Painted the bracket
Got that all fitted
Then today got it all back together and pissed water everywhere so took it all apart to what i think is a damaged new part i eventually sorted it and..... now the tiny pipe on the top of the rad is almost snapping off so im having to go and find a alloy welder to fix it. And Ive got a new pipe on the way
