Been a while since the last update,

Haven't yet painted the spoiler, but installed an ST202 Toms magic lip (already super white), It looks a bit funny being for a 96 st202 bumper, but matches the lines of the sideskirts, Will get photo soon.
(Actually considering hacking it up and turning it into Toms splitters lol)

Car is encountering problem after problem, My superstruts are worn and making noise while cornering and my front shocks are busted + a few minor issues.

And it randomly smokes like a chimney People reckon it's my turbo seals but there is no sign of fresh oil in my intercooler and compressor outlet, and sometimes resetting the immobiliser or punching the throttle fixes it. Neither my oil nor my coolant are mixed either...
