I went to check up on how my car was doing with the engine out and gearbox sent off to the gearboxman and found that both of the cats were rattling and had come away from edges so I need 2 new cats as well *sigh*
Since the car is apart I think it only wise to do as much as I can and was thinking that I should get all the coolant pipes replaced and the uprated fuel pump installed (is there somewhere else I can get this and the wiring other than noble mods from which i'm getting no response?) and perhaps the front turbo air intake repositioned.
The clutch is OK but can anyone think of anything else that I should look at/change/upgrade?

Might be worth checking all the space frame for any sign of rust or the paint/powdercoating peeling.
Lot easier to sort out with the engine out.
