Thanks :-)

Wishing I had a slightly nicer exhaust though, looks a bit pants the one on there at present. BTW, took some engine/interior pics but one of the dogs decided to chew my phone data cable so will have to retake them with the proper camera today.

I like the de-badged look. Did you remove the honda badge on the bonnet and boot?
wWere there any holes for badge pins or are the honda ones just stick on?

It's a Carbon Bonnet which if you look closely, has a long lip than the original so you don't need a grill piece. Sorry to say it was on the car when I bought it so can't comment on holes/glue situation. And yes, I like the debadged look to :)

Red lever/switch is a battery cut off switch. Mirrors were colour coded already.

Are you sure they aren't just Chrome covers?

It's just a cut-off switch, as it used to be a show car, so something else to ogle over.

Did you ever find out Joe?

Today Fasthands found that the fuel line was so loose it could be pulled off easily, so tightened that up. That was only real progress as the other tests only ruled out other problems. Gonna get it in to have the timing belt done (shame at only 31k miles!!), or at least retimed as we pretty much believe that is the issue now.

Means I will have a spare new TPS sensor soon most likely as I believe the original actually worked fine.
