Looking good. White wheels nearly always look good on red cars.

What have you changed / uprated under the bonnet?

Not a majour amount under the bonnet.
3ltr cams, 3.8 bar regulator, miltek downpipes, remus centre section, 71mm throttlebody, modded inlet manifold, blanked egr, ram air induction kit, Unichip.

Suspension wise
KW coilovers, poly bushed all round, brand new components all round and whiteline rear arb.

Brakes at the mo are 308mm fronts with std calipers, but got a set of 4pot Brembos here tomorrow.

I like that a lot & the spec list has ticked all the right boxes.

Well done.

[edit] I like your wheels but they wont fit my Nova, so you can keep them!
