Consumables and minor fixes

It's been a hell of a year but now the car is slowly beginning to scream for some consumables. The list looks something like this :

- front tyre replacement -> ADVAN A050 (M) - Cost AUD$1000
- front brake pads -> PMU LEVEL MAX700 - Cost AUD$200
- front disc rotors -> DIXCEL - Cost AUD$150

As far as work on the car goes :

- Replace the engine cover gasket to eliminate a minor leak
- Align the suspension to eliminate an increasing pull to the left
- Overhaul the starter motor to eliminate the crunch against the flywheel
- Clean the air filter unit

Nice to haves are as follows :

- An oil catch tank
- A racing lightweight battery
- Complete removal of the air con unit (no gas in it no point having it)
- A roll cage and a complete strip out of the interior
- Still sitting on the idea of an upgraded final drive and an LSD

Lots to do...
