    Got the bumper brackets straightened back up, closed the shut gap on the bonnet, repaired a couple of broken clips on the grill.
    Now I just have to wait from a suitable amount of cash to show up for a ecu and my coil overs.

    In the process of changing the shifter bushes. I think they're over due.

    I actually didn't think it was too bad. Its fairly safe to say it will be a whole lot better tho. Ebay special mate.

    Very easy to change brad.
    take one of the links off, undo the top nut, take off the bottom clip and slide it out.

    the factory ball is soft and has lots of give, replacing it for an acetyl ball makes a huge improvement

    Sorry Brad I miss read your post, as Stiggy said it was pretty straight forward. I got the whole kit, the only thing I haven't replaced is the ball and seat for the shifter itself. Tightened the whole thing up with only a little play. Awesome!

    So this is my first post for a long time, my car has been off the road for way too many years.
    The urge hit me a few months ago so I got back into it.

    With the dash out, it's a good time to re tape the ****ty foam areas in the heater system.

    I split the heater from the AC, it made the job a lot easier.
    Up next was the wiring, I sorted it all years ago but failed to label well, but I got there, mostly, I hope.

    I threw the dash back in hopefully for the last time and that where it sits at the moment.

    Links don't work. Let me know if you need any spare parts.
