Paid $568 to have the rear main seal replaced so it would pass safety inspection.... but, as they say on TV, "I'm still feelin' it".

Only if I have coin left in the budget will it be done... However, it would save cost if it was previsioned into the new loom now decisions... Have a 4.8 diff to install (and pay for) as well as WTAC entry fees etc... More than likely I have negative budget

Always welcome to call in and say hi. Not sure garage allocation yet but will be in the same garage as Takumi's car (#82).

I've only had my NC for a few months but just lately I've started doing stuff to it.

Last week I had MCA coilovers fitted so I've being playing around with the ride height. Pretty sure its going to stay where it is now - 340mm front and 350mm back. The difference this has made to the handling is amazing, its like a different car.

This week I fitted a new coolant expansion tank - a black one from DaveFab in England. It looks good.

And I've just ordered more stuff for next week - a Cobalt tower brace and Delrin door bushes. The brace may or may not improve handling but it will allow adjustment of the coilovers easily. And the door bushes, I dunno might be good but I guess they won't hurt. These are all coming from Moss in England.
