Hi, thought I'd introduce myself now that my car is on its way to earning its okc stickers...

I'm James, I'm a class 1 vm in the army, and I am pretty new to rs ownership..

Bought my rs in december and have been doing random little bits to it like soundproofing the interior with flashing tape, bonnet lifters, and whatever brakes haha..

I am using it as my daily driver so most of the changes I've made are for reliability..

I gave jano my car to be converted to EFI and running the basic cossie management setup .. And here it is as it is now...

Next thing to be done (once I have the money) is mk3 mondeo front brakes, rear disk conversion and abs removed.
After fitting new tyres : )

Why does it need to be in the project section? It's still my daily driver, just trying to improve things where I can : ).

James it wasn't a dig dude. just in my opinion even when we use these cars as a daily they still become a long term project :wink:
