I have so many different plans.

Option 1 (most unlikely option):
Get red carpets, red mats, red centre console, get the roof flocked in red and get some red Recaros (like the one in the NSX-R).

Option 2:
Get a proper exhaust (2.5" all the way through plus a SF manifold). Fit the ATR brakes.

Option 3 (most likely to happen):
Do nothing to the car.

Step 1: See how MOT goes in February
Step 2: Depending on MOT result, either (a) sort the little problems and fit accumulated parts to car, or (b) buy another one and fit said accumulated parts to that instead.

:lol: I even had a giggle myself! :lol:

Hopefully I will. Japfest is always too soon, but if I set my goals for Japshow this year, who knows it might be done by 2015! :roll:

Just going to be interesting finding time to work on the car with the little one here now, but it has to get finished! I have everything I need now bar a couple of Honda seals, etc. I think I'm gonna park a few ideas to get it done and dusted. More go, than show. So let some of the cleanliness and finish slip - it's just an engine bay and will be my track toy in the future.

We shall see...

Any of the same 'unfinished' group care to make any bold statements too? Nath, Phil??? :P
