Quick update..

Vernier arrived, so got the XE cam fitted at last..




A quick picture of how it looks with the morettes fitted




And finally, I've bought some new seats. Going to remove the rears and have these two buckets as I never use the rears anyway.

put it this way with the f20 in and a normal diff going down the straight by my unit which is abit sandy...it would lghtt tyres up no problems and wasnt even putting foot down, after i fitted the 6speed with the atb for him you still spun abit but it actually pulled away, diffs make a HUUUUUUGE differance to the way the car drives...it actually grips and goes

Ad you'll have to drop me a u2u with your number & I'll let you know when I'm out next.

Diff is well worth it, especially coming out of the corners.

Redtom - there's a few pics of my old disco in my garage. Not got pics of the new one yet, but pretty much identical.
