great looking car. only thing id pick at is the front end the small private plate looks great, though it'd look miles better without the standard plate surround

Thanks, I agree . I really need to get my finger out and get that changed ! Just bought a 4 pot kit for it . Its on at the moment just having a tiny hicup with the left caliper but will get sorted this weekend or before hopefully. Try get some photos up.

I replaced mine with a us spec rear and had it re painted. You could smooth and paint the standard one in the same style without the smaller plate size.  :happy2:

....If so, what fuel pump does she have?

Could be time for an APR, Loba, or Autotech internals (installed in brand new OEM pump being recommended).

It was something to do with the map we think, we changed the spark plugs and cleaned the injectors  at the same time so cant be sure, but seems to be ok now. It was a autotech internals in a new pump that was put on it mate  :happy2:

^^^^
Then with aftermarket pump internals it should handle the demands of your remap.

Random/intermittent fuel cuts are typical of a pump hesitating in meeting the ECU's demands, that's why I mentioned it.

I hope it stays ok, Graeme  :happy2:
