My name is Martyn and have had this GT4 since 2007. I have updated a few bits, between the times. So far, it has not let me down and still love driving it after all of this time. The starting point In the sales pitch

Big welcome to the club lovely example of a ST185 you must be very pleased with her , seeing your other post the new wheels look excellent Thank you Bob. The first thing to be changed was the downpipe, which I got from a member of the GT4EC, who bought it for his 205 but did not want it. As that part is interchangable. Initially I looked into fitting it and even started taking off bits, only to find out I wanted to drive the car more. Apologies about the picture quality, my excuse is it is a phone picture. I got so far as taking off the cooler, alternator snorkel, heat shield and getting the Lambda sensor off and onto the new downpipe. I even managed to get the some of the bolts off the existing downpipe, but not all of them. In the end, I put everything back together and asked Ian at TR & D to fit it when it was in for the service. It got fitted and I wish I had a picture of the old one off the car. He did have to nibble a bit of the head shield for the lambda to fit Next up was the Samcos. On the next post

As previous, I got some Samco hoses, both the turbo hoses (From the air flow meter) and the radiator hoses. At the time, I chose red for both, but now I think I will change the turbo hoses to a different colour. I managed to fit the intake hoses myself, The easy option, I know. Again it was about service time, and the coolant needed changing, so the hoses got changed then. Before After I also got a dump valve and a replacement Cusco Brace, and fitted that when I did the intake.
