ahh, there only seems to a handful of people you like them as much as me. I think they look really good, i like the sharp lines.

I fitted the new rad today, hopefully it'll run abit, ill get a pic up of the old one at some point. Im thinking about some new front springs, the current ones must have sagged but i like the current ride height so was thinking -50mm springs would give a simalir ride height. Has anyone heard from dai yet?

I replaced my rad on friday, so new rad, new shocks, new wheels (with painted centre caps) and new spring cup. Im now thinking about the clutch. When i release the clutch it makes a squeaking noise as well as having a high ish bit point. New one? if so where do people get them?

I could just go down to my old garage but I wanna know if people know of anywhere cheap

High biting point is a trait of 300s as far as my experience goes.
Squeek is probably the clutch release bearing? All of the 300s ive owned have made a noise from in there. Rumbling, squeeking etc. Depends how bad it is I suppose.

Is the clutch actually slipping?

If not, I'd wait till it is. If its funtioning as it should, leave it alone.

Thats just my advice though dude.
