Looks great :D

Phill sent me picture of it yesterday. Will be great with the bluetooth adapter in the old CD changer port.
Yeah Phill said you are a good knowledge on that so will promptly go out and sort one. Then I get the 1990's look with modern features!

Plus funnily enough this OEM headunit sounds better than the aftermarket head unit I had in this car originally. Exact same audio setup.

Update. Put pack on the stock hot pipe as well, with the genuine Greddy cast alloy elbow piece to Greddy IC. Also added Murray Clamps (thanks Phill :wink: ). Garbage picture but hopefully will take it for a drive soon with some better pics.

Philosophy behind this is to have a very clean, easy to work on MR with some period bits where appropriate. Some things have been modified (some hardlines removed etc), but in a non invasive and reversible way.
