    Hope your getting the whole car done by Ben J !
    Been told by lots of people that, when ever you replace your compressor, you should always replace your expansion valve (tx valve) & receiver dryer filter.
    Also I've found the dealership gas to be pretty cool.
    And if you gearbox casing is cracked you'll see it, just have a good look top an bottom, but its probably as jmac mentioned.

    Oh and have you still got the ecu from your wreck ?

            Cheers to Ben for what was an absolutely fantastic job. The car looks great and would strongly recommend his work to people! It looks brilliant.

              Get some coils on it and call it a day aesthetically.

              Ben you should fly down to my house and do this to my car

                Thats the plan! Plus a fairing.

                But first gearbox and hoodlining need to be done. Money is kinda falling into it at the moment

                            Just found the ad for the 404's you got them for a steal if you paid asking price. Usually they're upwards of 2x that. Detail looks good, time for lows

                              paid a little less but after shipping it was about 200 hehe. They look awesome and came with all the manuals etc!

                              Btw, anyone have suggestions for redoing hoodlining in a sunroof car? Is it just a one piece board that comes out like the non-sunroof car? Or does the trimming have to be done in the car?
