    Yeah, but it comes painted black, I've got mine back to bare alloy now and just need to clean up the arms to the trackrod ends.

    Which reminds me, must go get some trackrod ends today :D And some balljoints!

    Once my engine builder fits the APR bolts and metal tensioners. It'll not take long then to fit the short motor. The rest will follow, but i need a new lamba sensor and go knows what else then!

    Looking awesome Keith, spoke to Rich the other day, he said the colour looks fantastic in the flesh... can't wait to see it!!!

    So, you just strengthening the standard engine, any mods? I'm not an expert, but I'd imagine 200bhp+ in a Nova is probably enough... ;-)
