    Finished denibbing, and have started buffing/polishing. Finally the cars nearly there, going to take it for a drive up the road and back tomorrow so I can check my map out.
    Got the brakes done also, Diddn't end up getting the big brake kit, cause its abit overkill imo and also cause I got a good deal on these, There Znoelli 12 slot discs.

    A "Finished" project car is never finished until its been sold.

    If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

          Haha thanks man

          Painting should have been finished by now, but . . . after getting some more paint and repainting the bonnet and boot, I found the new paint to be the wrong color, so told the supplier, and he sent another 4.0L for free, But unfortunately it was also the wrong color as well, so have just sent a sample today of the paint I need, and hopefully will get the right color by friday
          Other than that nothing much else new, got most of the interior back together, and starting on the boot setup

            Time for another update.
            Have done a bit of street tuning so far, currently boosting 6.1 psi for now until I get a few km's on it. Have managed to get my A/F to stay around the mid 11's when in boost, sometimes dips down to 10.8 and up to 12.1, but still working on that. Currently boosting 6.1 psi for now.
            Its running open external as well so I'm plumbing it in as soon as I get time.
            Most of the interior is back together now, will get a pic up soon.
            And yay painting finally finished

                Thanks
                Haha, wet sanding not too bad started 800, then 1200, then 2000. The paint/clear is Lacquer so it will always appear dull when it dries until it is sanded and buffed, then it will shine
                As for buffing - this is the first car I ever used a buffer on, Not as bad as I thought but is is still easy to burn the paint/clear have to re-clear one of the wing mirrors cause I burnt it.
                Will get some better pictures, when the weather clears up, supposed to be raining for the next few days.
                Just took it for a ride to get some gas. Mmmm 2nd gear + rain and ease the throttle in = Wheelspin Haha too easy now

                            Its an OEM bonnet heat protector (supposed to stop the paint heating up I think)


                            Update:
                            I've plumbed the external wastegate back in, now I can actually hear the engine and turbo spoolin Made a front engine mount, And fitted longer wheel studs
                            Car should be certed by Friday then I can start driving it more. Will add some more pics once I've done the final buff and clean
