Will update as and when, cheers guys!
Nice.
Re: Solid Fabs: I didn't go there for mine (exhaust mani/downpipe only), did it all via phone/email. Alan has lots of templates I believe, and you know the quality of the work is excellent. I just ordered it and had it sent to me

I like the ATR steering wheel and the seats in the Prleude.

That's good to know Benny, it was your dope build that alerted me to his work; originally thought i'd have to take the car down there to ensure it was a good snug fit but if he's able to produce from a template it might just save me a long journey + a day or two off work:D. Either way, it's gonna be a few months off so will investigate further and get a scheme together
Cheers man
Word of caution, my subframe needed a little bit of notching for the manI to fit, but thats because I THINK Alan used an ATR jig to make mine. I'm pretty sure he has done lots of ludes, so I'm sure after a quick phone call you'd be in the know

You're already further along than me by a golden mile - I've only changed the stereo and added a K&N filter

Have a look at my profile thread, there's some pics of the 'notching' etc required there.
That said, you may well not need that, if you do go down there or if he uses a different jig?

Was nice to meet you yesterday Edd, car is looking rather nice as it is, so cant wait to see it when you have all your goodies fitted and sprayed up, hope your journey wasnt too bad, you had decent weather for it. I ended up browsing ebay/Pistonheads for a cpl of hours yesterday afternoon!!! But refrained from making a purchase, all your fault
