here is the catch can in question, i imported this one in from the usa and it really is a gorgeous piece of kit, it has its own dipstick and proper R & D into it, take a min to read this, its really interesting and just look at the design of the unit itself..... overkill.... probably....

couple more engine bay pics..... (cant wait to get this thing out sunday)
added billet dipstick for some engine bling.
During winter i havent spent much time on things really and it sat under the cover bar a few sunny days i ran out in it.... most time has been spent on general maintenance, the new baby as kept me busy really but it came at a good time when the car was away anyway so im finally getting round to normal life again :-) The last time i drove it i was genuinely shocked by the power in cold weather, it was nothing short of balistic, 1-3 are wheelspin :-)
next stage of this in 2012 is to drop some serious weight and just enjoy the thing really.... its been a joy to own for sure and i continue to love and enjoy her... except now iv got a little boy to share it with.... so excited about the times ahead...

Thought id better update this....
The car was uncovered and out strutting its stuff at a recent sprint event....
Shes running absolutely perfectly and ran all day in 30 Deg C heat, never missed a beat.....
In the year this hasn't been updated, the car have competition 3 way Kw dampers, uprated bushings, competition Vt engine mounts, RTAB limiters, Braided clutch lines, and quite a few different bits that i cant remember.... life has taken over so havent been getting out to much... this car is constantly referred to as a show car.... its super clean but used and enjoyed properly on the nicer days :-)
here a clip of her getting off the line, this run was aborted due to the poor time!!

Amazing car
But why the hard top on a dry sunny day?!
i always leave the hardtop on during trackdays or sprint days...... with the roof off the drag slows me down too much.... looool!!But why the hard top on a dry sunny day?!
its off right now however during normal weekend use....
