Almost 2 year ago, christ !!
Updates ? ... pretty much just giving it a thrashing !!
Competed in a couple of Sprints with a local motorclub earlier on in the year, ended up with a few bumps and scrapes after hitting the tyre wall, not to bad tho.

Sourced another engine for it, just a std one with about 90k miles, started to strip it, fitted a new front panel due to the old one having a couple of cracks where the IC mounts, tidy'd up the engine bay abit, then decided to 'freshen' everything else up on it.
All the running gear / brakes were removed / blast cleaned / repainted / re-assembled, new ball joints, front dampers rebuilt, re-undersealed the new front panel / arches / floor pan, fitted another set of ultra-sonicly cleaned injectors and a new Bosch 044 pump just incase those caused it to melt !
The cars still sat in the garage with the rear beam / fuel tank off, just needing to underseal the rear 1/2 of the floor pan & arches, clean the beam and tank up, bumpers are away getting painted, still need to get the tailgate re-painted after the tyre wall incident, then it should be all sorted.
Then its going up for sale !!!
