Hi All,

Since I bought myself my first 6' the other day, I figured a should probably make another project thread - and since I am due to start an intership I figured I will go all out and not skimp, hence the title!

First of all, heres how I got her :





And heres how the plans go:
[b]
Good Bits: [/b]
Camblet done 3k ago.
New front brakes
immaculate interior
Cost £1100

Bad Bits:
Engine has a light tap Sad

So, the project "Backlog" or, things to do - in order:

1) New head to sort the tap out, and maybe some new cams
2) Lift it off the deck a little, up to -35mm ish
3) Possibly remove the tints
4) Sound Deadening / FLI-Comp6 / Pioneer Headunit
5) Refurb the alloys
6) Maybe Maybe Maybe........ S/C....... Cool

So, off to decide if I should do the head myself - or pay someone else....
