Car looks good Marco, lots of effort but it looks well worth it. Can't believe how well that digger bent that 306 shell!  Is that some kind of arm rest in the finished pictures? |

SO little update Fellas,There has not been much news on the car i was just happy to be back in the 6 , and i enjoy it every day. However now that i have a job locally i do have some more funds to invest, so today i got this from the UK  A set of BakerBM solid rear beam mounts and the special offer for the gearlinkages and shortshift. Also my car wasn't idling properly lately sometimes going up to nearlly 2k rpm  so i ordered an ICV from or HongKong mate cesnathan. Wat makes me go mad is that the exact day i got the ICV my car stopped idling like a b*tch :dry Now i Need to see when i have the time to put them goodies on the car. Thanks for looking p |

Have you got any more photos of the air intake? I'm thinking of modding the standard intake below the bonnet to go to my Pipercross viper instead of through the fog light and interested to see what you've done |

Cheers, I saw it and thought it looked quite interesting with the 2 pipes. Are they both 76mm? Do they join together before going into the k&n? |

Don't know if they are 76mm they are the ones that come with the K&N 57i Kit. They are kept together by cable ties. They also don't go into the k&n as it's an open filter not an enclosed one. So they are only pointed on the filter. If you plan on going for an enclosed one you should check carl chambers BTCC 6 in the projects section, the flashing green/yellow one. His setup looks really smart and is morre the type of thin you are looking for |

Those seats really do look fantastic in there, really well suited to the interior. Looks like a standard setup, which is a hard thing to recreate with aftermarket seats. Wonder if there's any K10's in the local scrap yard... |

Hey Fellas,another small update yesterday i was able to pick up this little package :  Actually i was a bit disappointed, as i bought it as A Bilstein B12 Pro-Kit. So i was expecting a nice big box saying B12 Prokit. However i'm curious to see how good these are. |
