Well yes, the ride compared to my last soop on 18s was horrid, and the TEMS shocks are so tired too, the rear wallows about for what seems like ages after a bump in the road....

I got Tokico Illumina IIs, TEMs compatible uprated shocks, coming and cant wait! but sadly i doubt they gonna be here OR fitted for the tunnel run on Saturday!

Well although i have done a fsir bit the previous owner did a lot too, the body was stripped of everything looking for rust and none was found, then it was completly under sealed, the front and rear subframes stripped, shot blassed back to bare metal then primed and painted, thenthe suspension rebuilt with new bushes. the engine is only 3500 miles old from full rebuild and was dynod in may at 359.8HP but i found the timing was out retarded by 5degree so now it maybe a lot more, its got a stage two turbo technics hybrid, titan d/pipe, HKS high power zorst, Mines ECU, Friday it will have a light weight chromoly flywheel and the boost is going up from 18psi to 21 (1.5bar)
