Well after some major work on my GT4 its had/having its long awaited respray. had a busy weekend about a month ago where I changed the clutch and flywheel for a nice Fedanza/RPS combo aswell as a new gearbox (I fried the old one), replaced all the subframes with new powder coated jobies, replaced all the suspension arms, new KYB adjustable gas shocks front and rear so thats the handling/knocking sorted out.
Nice shiney flywheel
