Nothing much atm. Front cut by easter. RS will get that motor and the Leone will get the RS motor to get it on the road then big bore WRX heads and 2.5 crank. Oh and a gearbox not made of glass.

Thanks for the comments guys the car broke down on the sydney - newcastle freway the other day. Towed and fixed in 1:15mins. Alt shit itself bigtime.
