yeah knew he took the exhaust out;
interior ... fair enough; including the "plastic bit around the gearstick :troll: "?
suspension, yeah I'm still pissed about that (took us a day to get them swapped over, then he called like the next day lol)

strutbraces? as in they put them back in? (i took them off and sold seperate)
gearbox.... f**k hope not. :?

As far as I know everything is there. Stock exaust needs some work, gearbox service and I think the rear engine mount is moving a little bit. Does that cause the car to vibrate quite a bit? I just put new tyres on the front had them balanced and had a wheel alignment, driving much nicer though still vibrating..
