Getting there... unfortunately I had a "mishap" and destroyed the throttle body :o the throttlew bodies on these are year and tramsmision specific, and there are not many late spec manual TTs about.... (not many as in I could count them all on the fingers of both hands lol)

Luckily thanks to the good people at Toymods I have managed to source one from australia :yahoo:

Its veeeeeeeeeeeery close now :D
