Go L series mate =) mine has a 1600 in it and hammers power to weight wise, ca18 is a death wish I rekon haha.
What kinda orange u going for? If ur getting the paint mixed up proffesionally I suggest you look into lamborgini orange. Looks really good =)
no way, 120Y starts to be fun at 150kw, I only ended up with 165 I reckon 200 would have been perfect.

nah man thats market value for 120Ys :p I have 2 good 120Y bonnets here that might be going in a skip bin in the next few weeks. Not sure about keeping the death proofed bonnet for sentimental value though...

If you bought whitegoods recently you may well own my 120Y!! It was fun while it lasted but it was never a long term car. I will always have a soft spot for 120Ys though and I am keeping some mint bumpers stashed away in case I ever find another decent one.
