Looks nice, although the DV doesn't appear to have a vac line attached to it?

It does now. I have re-routed all the vac lines and bypassed the rear bcs as they wernt connect in the right places. It was only boosting to 5psi but now its boosting fine! Also changed the plugs too Iridiums as the car had corsa plugs in it..

Nice, similar spec to mine. Apart from the bodywork is better, and mine has a ATB and phase 3.5 custom remap.
What did set you back? if you don't mind me asking.

Cheap £2k. Diff bearings need doing in the box and its over-fueling like mad, So box rebuild with diff and think it needs mapping
Cheers Nath!

I don't think I would ever sell mine as a car, and break it. 2k is dirt cheap.
