Here you go Patient Bear!

When Mk1 met Mk2... Shame it went dark!

New goodies included in pictures





And here's Ray in the daylight, with his newly painted chav-tastic blue calipers 'cos I'm actually 12!!



(Original wheels in the back for a cool lowering effect. I honestly don't think I'm gonna spend any money on springs... This will do fine!!)

Hope you approve James?!

Steve

Well I didn't so I guess you must have!

I'm being very gentle at the moment... Bad Lambda = EPIC thirst!

Oh, put a cone filter on it too, Mmm... Turbo Chatter

Gave him a good service too. Along with replacing the missing full litre of ATF...

BAD JAMESY!!

Granny matress?!

Cheeky sod!!

No, not put them on yet mate, gonna un seize the calipers first!! Lol

Think I'll paint the internal section of the discs too, always seems a shame to have lovely calipers and rusty discs

Just so you know, rear discs are solid on all 400s, the standard calipers won't fit a vented disc.
