After much waiting for me to get a 2nd car, i finally have one! Hence i decided there was nothing stopping me from stripping the hybrid.

Loads left to do - will be a slow process because of low funds at the mo. Planning on full cage i think. Buckets, harnesses, carbon fibre rear door inserts.

Not sure on what to do with the carpet though - as i like the front with a bit of comfort and not wires showing everywhere. However, this might not be an option if going for a full cage.

I'll be ordering some 3 point luke harnesses in blue tomorrow from demon tweeks.

Anyhow, some pics:-

The car definitely feels alot quicker - it just picks up much more from lower down the revs. The noise though - it is amazing!!! I nearly wet my pants when i heard it first time - sounds like a rally car when booting it properly!

Need to tidy the back up somewhat, and remove all that sticky shit which i ain't looking forward to!

You're tempting me to rip the rest out now! Don't think the mrs will be too happy, as she drives it as well! However, she was well impressed with the gains last night!
