Why have a working car when you can have a broken car? Drove the car for 4 days in April and it ran better than ever before. I was cruising in 120km/h in 6th gear, put the pedal to the metal and heard a bang and a big cloud of smoke followed the car! What had happened was that the threads for spark plug number 3 had broken! 1 ignition coil and all plug boots need replacement! I haven't touched the car for months but now it's time, got the head back with new threads for sparkplug 3 and 4. Now I just need to get some parts and it will soon be running again.

Finally it's time for an update! It's been a while but not much has happened. I broke inner and outer left rear CV Joint. It was expected after hundreds of dragracing starts... I've changed them and they seem to hold on fine now. Got a MTM instrument cluster on eBay, the speedometer goes to 320km/h, just need some more hp to have any use of it I've dough out my treser-lights which have been lying in the closet, they look great on the car!

Have changed to powerflex bushes for the control arms at front and back. Mounted KW-coilovers, it lowered the car a lot! Drove the car for awhile without doing a wheel alignment which resulted in worn front tires and halfworn rear tires... they have been used for 2000-3000km... Nice with more things to buy... Did a wheel aligntment, improved the handling a lot! But the pipe that goes between the clutch master and slave cylinder broke so I had one custom made becasue it would have taken a week to get a new one.. Hope it will stick together! Mounted a stiff 4-puck sinter with reinforced pressure plate, bites fine While I was at it I burned the old clutch before chaninging it The car goes fine and i just enjoy it as often as I can.

The car has now been on the road for 1 month this year. Mounted new tires. Installed DLS Front speakers and Becker headunit, got a DLS amplifier and a Peerless sub lying around... Should get them in place as soon as i feel that i want to build a box for the sub... Have replaced the power steering pump at the price of 500 euros... Very funny! Replaced some bushes for the rear diff, have gotten some KW type 2 coilovers lying around, will mount stiffer bushes for the control arms and rear diff mount, and some stiffer top mounts that i have laying around... Fitted a HID kit, turned out really good! Better lightning, and great look. Have had some problems with them though so theyr'e been replaced a couple of times. Have replaced the lambda probe, spark plugs, oil, oil filter, air vent filter and rear brake pads. Have also replaced the clutch master cylinder since i wrecked the piston in it... Been down to skillingaryd a couple of days ago and fixed the aircon; changed a leeking hose but then we found out that the aircon cooler leaked too, so we changed that one too! But then the reacular switch on the aircon compressor were dead, sorted that out though, now I have a functional aircon, and 1k+ euros less in my wallet...I think that's all... Oh, yeah, the clutch has died, we'll se how that ends.

Haven't updated in a while so thought it was about time! Hasen't happend that much, changed brakepads, done some service and tings like that. Got it chipped but it's not running as it's supposed to. Except that I have just enjoyed driving. Now it just waits for me to get my thumb out and drive it in to the garage...

My rims that were 2 months late have finally arrived. It looks really good with them but the pictures doesn't do them justice. All i need to do now is to lower the car Have also bought a big intercooler... good for future plans! (now sold!). Have had som problems with the car... When approcing 0.4bar it started to *jump*, solved that problem with an improved bypass. Also installed a turbo boost meter... Also installed a Sony cdplayer, nice to finally have cd in the car Also installed a GAS frontsystem which i had laying around...
