Thanks for offer matey but tbh i've come across a few sets of rather nice old skool type rims so should be 8)

Small update.

Ordered a pair of cusco camber adjustable top mounts through greenline.
Bought an fia approved seat.
Bought fia approved single seater harness.

Just waiting on delivery for the above now.

Also been spending some more time tidying the inside, removed the rest of the sound deadening throughout the car and started wire brushing it back to metal ready to respray the inside white.

Its been a hard messy job but with the help of stella artois and an ipod the time flew :-D

ok bit more done, finished wire wheeling the whole inside and given it two coats, will let it dry, then a quick 800 grit rub and another two coats tomorrow.

Have also decided to focus this build more as a track car rather than drift.

piccies :-D

I have to say that looks like enormous fun. Interesting to see that you're veering away from drift Paul. Is that due to the car that you have chosen or do you just fancy having a fight with the Sierra

Do you have an ETA for the next time you'll be using the car in anger?
