Lovely car, bodywork looks good! In my opinion another 10mm or so lower would really give u a perfect stance 8)

Got the car back today, oh dear me does the clutch feel nice!!! I love my car once again.

He didn't have time to fit the short shifter, so I'm going to do this myself on the weekend. Should have absolutely dialled transmission when I'm done 8)

My clutch theories were correct also. The garage that carried out the work previously fitted a cheap kit, that's why I was experiencing issues with it!

Short shifter went in today!!!!

It took me about 2 hours to do, it was suprisingly straight forward. the Pivot rod is a right bugger to get out though. All went smoothly apart from I damaged my handbrake handle putting the trim back on :(, so will have to get another.

Took it for a test drive and it's absolutely amazing. With my brand new clutch, reconditioned gearbox and now short shifter, this is the best my car has EVER driven. Couldn't be happier 8)
