Heres some good progress, not enough time to get the bloody head off

So the gearbox is partially split gearbox and then couldnt get the bolts off for 5th gear. So removed the front suspension from car.

Will get back at it tomorrow night!


June has come and to be honest going as fast as possible....eeek

Depends how you drive it and how well it is set up.

With out traction control it will be a handful around corners, but fun
