Well finally got a few pics of her. (sorry lads, camera is broke and don't own a smart phone)
Arrived at the port May 19th after 2 months at sea. Dead battery and to make things even better, blown fuse. Made a make-shift tinfoil fuse and started her up after a charge. (HEY IT WORKED!

)
Had to wait for a transporter as was empty of fuel, dusty as hell and zero insurance so wasn't riskin anything.)
Got it home safe and begin the debacle that is the VRT process. Took another 3 weeks for VRT to sort out figures for it as i had proof of lower C02 emissions. Over the course of visits tot he office, i managed to get insured by Aviva through QuoteDevil.ie. Nice lad there Damian went back and forth to get me the cover. Great lad! Wasn't too pricey either!
When i finally got it on the road (Mid June by now), i noticed some stuttering when idling in traffic and overall, it didn't feel right. Enter the timing belt/full service fiasco. Japs really do look after customers

. I'd like to note the previous owner hasn't answered any mails from me since, so be weary of
K Trading in Japan. Not that i mind too much as i expected to do some work on it.
What needs doing now:
New tyres - Have narrowed it down to
Toyo Proxes C1S. Anyone experience of these? They seem the best bang for your buck in regards wear/noise/wet grip.
New Front Grill - The grill is pretty worn and needs a replacement or is it possible to refurbish them? All the chrome has torn off from...i don't know actually.
Mesh - For the lower grill in the front bumper. Nothing there at the moment.
Gauges - Thinking of adding Boost gauge and knock analyzer. Any recommendations? Necessary for an auto?
And finally - Pièce de résistance
