Quick update. Got a bit stupid at the EOYB with the WRX club, ended up breaking a CV joint on the rear shaft. Was trying to get it sideways with the r-comps on the skidpan.... never again!
Here's a quick snap of the brief enjoyment that was had:

Car is now back on the road thanks to the boys at STechnic. Also got a couple of spare shafts that I will take with me to future events.
This year I will probably look to get a harness and harness bar in the car, and see what happens. Going on a big trip to the USA in June/July, so most of the spare funds will be going towards that for now.
Still yet to get the Vipec waterspray sorted, but will no doubt be dealt with quickly with a visit to ASG.
I should also add that my 'overheating issues' are actually fuel surge issues. I have sourced a cheap surge tank through a fellow member, but will still need to section off the boot properly and find some decent fuel lines and fittings to rig it up with.
