Welcome back mate.
Nick's car is a beautiful example, and has always been meticulously looked after. Nice buy.

Nice buy mate!!

I wouldn't be doing FMIC if you're still running the TD04 . . . more lag for minimal power gain

I have the straight vut gearbox from that very car in my GC8 now. I also have the custom Cypher FMIC and linished pipework sitting in my shed. If you are interested in the FMIC PM me. As it happens it will fit exactly as it should seeing as how the front bar was cut for it!!
