Indeed !
Engine has been stripped and is being rebuilt by my engine builder at Racetec Performance who i have been going to for over a decade.
it will get a tune at Springy when i get a new car, so no don't have a car yet but will have a built engine to bolt into one, that should count ;)

Sounds a bit like you are bored and need a project.... I am sure there are a few about that would like to have your skills and knowledge as to make theirs as good as you last with the minor issue!

I asked the other day about lowering my My12 Liberty and they pretty much said due to VDC there isn't an easy way at the moment. Bit of a shame would like it to sit how you old beast did.

What are you plans with suspension and do you know if this really the case with late model Gen V's?

Mine still have almost 5yrs of warranty so can't do too much at this point and being a NA isn't as many options apart from looks and handling... I will come back and have a look at the tuning that some have done on the NA's but how safe would it be do do this at this stage???

Thanks man, yes and yes, i like pushing boundaries and i itch for it. Those that have embarked on big builds know how passionate and consuming it can get. It runs in the blood and keeps me ticking. I'm an avid speedhunters fan and love all things with oil and speed just to give you an insight.

To be honest i am not too familiar with the Gen V's i'm sure others would be able to dispel those myths pretty quickly.
