well i spent a good few hours on it todayi thought i would attack the exhaust, it will be removed in a couple of weeks for a nice stainless one coming but gave me the chance to renew the rubbers and clamp.
here is what it used to look like:

and here it is now all tucked up out of the way (crap pic the flash didnt go off but you get the idea)

took the front wheels off to swap with the pulsar ones, as one wheel had a real bad wobble on it, to be honest i think i opened up a can of worms found CV boots gone, drivers side shock leaking, lower ball joint gone, the list goes on.

i have been busy in the last week or so, mainly collecting loads of bits, you can pick up loads of cheap stuff from ebay and i suppose i will be a regular at GSF :? here is a pic of my stash also not pictured is a stainless exhaust and decat and also a K&N filter.

last week i thought i would put it in for its MOT just to get a list of what needed to be done, well the tester kept shaking his head he wasnt happy, and not only that he missed a couple of bits, which im getting it sorted.
amoung some of the bits that need doing is the drivers side shock has litterally exploded and squirted all over the inner wheel arch.

so the strip down and repair has started.

will have more interesting pics soon.

i havent really done anything to my cars over the past couple of weeks, been abit lazy, spent to much money on bits, so have slowed down on the spends and got myself a budget per month.

so today got on with the breaks, got some redot discs and some ferrodo DS2500's, also fitted new shock absorber with lowering springs and goodridge hoses. only done one side so progress is slow at the moment.

still loads to do, will be lucky if i can get this done by the end of the summer at this rate.

keep up the good work dave, im really missing my pulsar now and keep thinking about whether to go down the evo route or just buy a cheapish road/track car like you've done!
