David, how much are a set of AVOs? Are they supplying you at discount or are you buying them brand new?

Ill see if anyone round here is interested in your headers - should be an extra bit of cash.

Also, you must have some extra bits in the garage you can sell!!

TOTB2 looking forward to it

One of his runs before elvington is discussed on GTR if you look for it, he ran 212mph at brunters but has run since elvington.

David, a friend has a set for Ł350 IIrc, he has picked up a set of Teins since then and will be taking the AVO's off in the next couple of weeks. they have done about 2-3k iirc

200mph seemed like a good target... I'll be the leggy has better aerodynamics than a impreza and weight is less of an issue at high speeds!

I expect my new skyline spec (should be circa 580bhp) to hit 200mph (though not as fast as Ronnies old 670bhp engine did), I know of a 415bhp skyline which has hit a proven 194mph (though it took a while, compared to the big power cars!).

Cool

For Style, it'd have to be the Legnum / Galant. Evil EVIL looking car.

2.5Litre Twin Turbo V6 as standard...good for power......but big power? Not sure I've seen one of these running over 350bhp yet!

Legacy: Got to be done. If you build it, they will come.

IIRC, Ronnie did 209mph on the 1.4 mile runway at Elvington, a few weeks after TOTB last year.

It would be interesting to know what distance the JUN car ran when it achieved 309km (193mph ?) I suspect it was over more than 1.25 miles.

Mark.
