Removed a wood panel ready to start insulating inside of it. Then realised I had other things to do as we are having friends over tonight so had to stop.

Thread is missing a few pics in the early stages as I've moved them about and not fixed the links. But from page 21 onwards is all the recent work I've done.

I got more power from my transporter by gapping the spark plugs closer. Possibly 40bhp.

Bought new brake pads. Has these on my old Evo and was impressed so thought I'd give them a try again.
