+1 to that

Im not a fan of the 4WS and ive always been driving about with it disconnected, but i hear thats dangerous so im just going to take it out. Also to save weight and so i can have the rear arch sitting a tad over the tyre

Yeah that is true. Well, you just won me over

Now, another problem. Last time i was talking to Solid-Fab about a custom manifold, he mentioned that he would require the standard manifold to work from. I live in N.Ireland and that would mean taking the manifold off and sending it to him and then him sending both, custom and standard manifolds back. Thats going to cost me extra money and a lot of hassle.
I would get a manifold made over here, but everyone i have asked have said they would only do exhausts and everyone just buys DC Sports one which are sh*t

Put a post up in wanted section for a mugen/fujitsubo/RSR manifold.
Great off-the-shelf items.
