Nice... sorry Poizn.. for some reason i thought you werent going to be making them anymore?? .. yay

Id just like to tell everyone.. i had some work done to my manifold to make a greddy fuel rail work, sent it too Wheelcrafters in Durban ... OMG the work was not only shocking, it was expensive too. R500 to weld on 2 bolt points onto the alluminium manifold. they were put on skew, and looked like a dogs breakfast. Luckily ... Poizn then took the manifold away.. and sorted it all out.. it looks 100X better and i feel confident in the welds strength ... i will NEVER go back to Wheelcrafters!

.. so Poizn ..does this mean you gonna make those water/ breather tanks for the public?? im sure there'll be some interest in them!

set the timing to 16 deg.. took it for its first drive in 6 months.. didnt take it over 3500rpm.. but its already driving excellently.. smooth responsive.. cool and very well behaved .. just purrrs along.. even with the hole in the exhaust..

next its off to have the BC cams, Springs and retainers fitted... then its play time.. weee

some pix... just ignore the 6 months of dust. kouki Tailights are the cherry on top for me :)
