    Mate well done!! That is such a tidy unit, great paint, tidy steelies and nice lowering make it look pretty much perfect. I wish mine had looked that clean.

      Sorry yeah its is more of a bluey sort of smoke.

      Dont think its fuel bcuz I only got one injector

      The car has been using a bit of oil but there has not been an oily residue in the exhuast. Car does not have any external leaks as as gaskets etc have been replaced and engine bay is pretty dman clean if I do say so myself

        It could just be a tired engine mate, I'm pretty sure mine does it, a few others on here have it. Dare I say it's expected with cars our age they're tough little things too, so I wouldn't worry too much about it.

        No need to worry about hitting your head on the clouds now either!

            im a fan of the textured tops! steelies work against that silky silver and yes, a lil lower up front for a more aggressive stance
