Here's one in the meantime

Sounds even better under load! You've got yourself a bargain there mate - they are great cars, absolutely love mine.

I know a fair bit about their upkeep and modifying now so feel free to friend me and PM me anytime if I can be of assistance

Thanks mate, first question then, what's the single best mod you've made that you can't recommend highly enough?
Think I'll be looking for more power soon though;-)

Depends on budget but get your suspension done first, everyone does power first but good suspension is even better.

Of course... NOISE is awesome too! A Good Stainless exhaust and a K&N intake will make it sound very rude indeed.

Cheap Mods - 1: strut brace, 2: braided brake lines

more expensive: 1: polybushing 2:IPD Rear Roll Bar 3:Billstein dampers

lightweight 17" wheels will help a lot too.
