Just picked up the keys to a small industrial unit near Newbury :)

No more working on my car in the rain, no more working underneith my car on cat poo infested gravel and no more pissing off the neighbours.

Also means I'll be able to offer more services (like fitting electronic devices, engine management, SAFCs, AVCRs etc)

No pictures yet as its empty and extremely unimpressive, but I'm pleased :)

Just fitting my VEMS AFR/EGT gauge ( www.h-dev.co.uk/site/egt-afr-gauge.htm ) :Plug: and its great not having to roll around in cat poo infested gravel :hurl: losing parts every few minutes...

I've had a look at the S12 ECU - looks pretty straight forward to be honest. I just don't know anyone with an S12 to test with.

Looks great, Jez - I'm jealous :)

Now you just need a few tuning part posters on the walls like the units in Fast and the Furious :wack:

Oh, and some heaters for working in the winter :nod:

Good stuff, nothing worse than crawling around in mud/gravel/puddles/cat shit. Do you mind me asking where you found it and how much it was as i've started to have a look but can't seem to find what I need (PM if you like)
