My GTA is currently undergoing an extensive engine makeover, hoping to complete this over the winter months. First major job done today was cleaning of the aluminium cast parts. Opted for blasting as it has proved difficult to achieve a factory fresh cast finish with cleaning agents. Very...

Having covered a considerable mileage for any car, let alone a GTA on standard suspension, my SW now handles like a boat! It wasnt a complete disaster until recently but having had a new ARB fitted about 7 months ago the front has started knocking again and I think my rather worn original...
