   Hi All,
   
   Im back for the first time in age's for those who noticed i wasn't around.
   But my reason ive been away is i have been working hard to get money together to try and get my Euro plans together.
   
   Instead of buying things bit by bit i have saved to buy all my parts at the same time and fittings.
   
   Plans
   
   16" Kerscher Carmona
   Smoothing Vtr kit to body
   Smoothing Bonnet
   Smoothing Boot
   Removing Spoiler
   Lowering 45mm
   After Market Back Box
   
   
   Interior
   
   Dash Fabrication
   A choice between new seats or Leather Retrim VTR Seats
   Door Cards Re-Trim
   New Stearing Wheel
   New Clocks
   
   
   Engine
   
   Advice Needed
   
   Well thats the plans up to yet and i have £2000 which isnt quite enough for the work to be completed yet. as for the engine i have no idea what the best thing to do would be as i cant afford a vts lump so what mods could i have to give my engine that extra bit of umph?
   
   Cheers All
   Adam

   hey mate plans sound goo, but if i were you id look at getting 15"wheels and slamming it instead of just a 45mm drop. as for engine mods just do the basic, induction kit, manifold, and exhaust, youll still have change out of 2 grand easilly so id get a bit of engine bling under the bonnet too.

   Plans sound good mate.Ad go for 15s tho and smoothing the vtr kit only leads to trouble if you drive fast and hard like most ppl. Also DIY ur clocks using the LED guides and save some cash for the engin lol
