Figured it's about time I updated this thread (it has been inactive for two years now!! Laughing )

Anyway, my overall plans for the car have changed slightly. After telling myself that I was never going to modify it I've found myself caving in as things have needed to be replaced.

The shagged out Monroe shocks and Pedders springs that were in the car when I bought it have been replaced with some nice gear from Whiteline.. The worn out drivers seat which was causing me hip and back pain after driving any reasonable distance now makes a nice cosy bed for my cat in the back-yard. Keeping me cosy in the car is a fixed bucket seat, which is very supportive yet still much more comfortable than I'd imagined it would be.

The long term goal now will be to turn this into something of a street-driven track car. The interior will be stripped from the front seats back (weight is the enemy of thy 4AGE) and I'll be looking into options for roll cages to stiffen the chassis up (hopefully a design that will allow me to still fit a mountain bike in the back Confused )

Engine-wise the 100kw 4AGE is going to stay. I'm not going to try and chase any ridiculous power outputs, but some head work and some slightly nasty cams are not out of the question either. Hopefully by the time it gets to this stage (if it gets to this stage) I'll have something a bit larger that I can tow it to the track with, while still being able to bring it out for the occasional squirt on some enjoyable roads when I desire. Very Happy
