Cheers. Id honestly say there's not another Gen2 in Aus that could rival its condition.
My enjoyment is building the car, modding and tinkering, not so much the completed product. I'll tinker and mod a car right up until the day I sell it.
I sat down and calculated a cost of what I could realistically part the car for, what I know I could sell the parts for and Id get about 12k so thats what Id sell it for, but I dont think Im ready to sell it just yet......

I'd believe you on that as well after reading the build.
You surely have to be happy with the product of your tinkering though, it's amazing.
Yeah that's fair enough, it owes you a fair few hours of labour by the looks of things as well.
Anyway, torqued to spec is just the manuals way of saying 'we couldn't get it any tighter, see if you can'.

Oh, you wouldn't be doing it if you cared about the time taken.
I wish I had tinkering abilities as well, too scared to start taking stuff apart incase it won't go back together haha

White would look pretty good with all the black I reckon? or Maybe another grey?
