Very happy with how it looks, tho its in "4x4 mode" with a huge arch gap, so im hoping it will seatle down once its driven - otherwise ill have to get myself so decent lowering springs as a quick fix till i can get me some loverly coilovers.

Thus i fitted nthe final touches to the engine bay - the clutch and power steering res's so now theres nothing more to add!

Over all a very productive day and a happy one!

Day 13 - I didnt get anything done at all!

Day 14 - Decided it was time to get the dash sorted out once and for all. So after sorting out alot of wiring and adding an extra 12v cig lighter socket (to power my ipod) and some kill switches, the interior is finaly completed!

As you can see the interior thats going in, is now all in - it needs a darn good clean tho! and the cf sun visors need some "trimming" to make the work properly, but all in good time!

I also re-fitted my side skirts, and fitted my black JDM spoiler with 3rd brake light - this was originaly on my old VTi - thus why its black, but i quite like it in black it "goes" with the white/black combination so it might stay black :)

I also fitted the battery and got to test some of the sytems, like the lights, heater controls, the alarm,imob and fuel cut controls etc and so far it all works fine - which is a good sign! I couldnt "test start" the car as i havnt plugged up my oil temp guage thus theres a hole in the engine where the sensor for it goes, but tommroow is the big day!

Day 15 im getting my spoon cat back system back form my mate ben, im borrowing his Fuel pressure regulator guage so i can set mine up properly and ill get the oil temp guage fitted - so with some luck it will all start up and run! hurray! or it wont start and ill cry :( booo hisss

Sorry this is so short and to the point only my sister and mother inlaw are both over for the week so im not getting much chnace to get online or work on the project + getting dragged to the shops all day by 3 women isnt my bets idea of fun... but we guys will struggle on eh? ;)

Ill will update tomorrow night with how it went tho!

Till next time!
