Little update,got another load of bolts back today from Ross after zinc coating along with some more parts back from the powder coater.
Also my roof vent inside sticker showed up from japanparts.
Sent off the last lot of bolts with Ross today and my fuel sender unit for some an unions to be welded on so once I get that back with the last round of powder coated parts there will be nothing stopping me from starting the task of cleaning/ rebuilding it all which is a lot harder than it sounds due to having everything in custom locations with braided hoses etc.
Oh and I got the engine loom sent off today to Tim@JTinnovations so he can make a custom loom adding all the wires needed for the extra sensors coming back to the toucan.
Seriously getting excited about how the car is going to look now though!!

Try buying an STi Quick Steering sticker of you want to buy an expensive sticker, it's tiny but coats about £23.

Cheating the tax man.

It clearly states that the value of the goods is 600 Yen. Terrible behaviour.
