Well I've had to spend some money on Evo. Firstly the suspension was knocking so after being quoted stupid money for replacement OEM struts I decided to go for the BC racing inverted coilovers.

The 45000 mile cam belt service was pretty close to being due and the clutch seemed rather high up the pedal so the car was booked in with APT for the service and an Exedy twin plate clutch.

Wednesday it went into Autotest for 4 wheel alignment and the ride height to be set as myself and my dad couldn't get it quite right on his drive as it's not very level.

Yesterday the car went into Supreme in Lowestoft (where the Scoob was resprayed) for a full valet and machine polish.
Today I have fitted some 18" Rota Force wheels in black chrome that I bought off a guy on the MLR. There are a few marks on a couple of them but it's not really noticeable when there on the car unless you look up close. When the tyres need changing I think I might go for 255's instead of the 235's that are on them.
