There is a neat RA, been for sale on here, which looks just like Flat's. It has a cold air intake as a hole in the Morretti headlamp conversion iirc. Dark wheels (the best) and carbon bonnet etc.
Maybe that is the one on eBay?

Kev would never sell; he's havin' so much fun, just like you and I Mark.
I'm so bored at the mo (no racing for another 4 weeks) I even fitted my boost gauge.
With the 20g it climbs so fast I can't see the max boost reading before snatching a gear

think you might be refering to Peccy's car, does look identical apart from the facelift bumper (watch this space )



commander will store the peak boost if you ask it too, along with peak readouts for everything you have on the monitor screen

Yes, but do you think I can get it to do it?!
Other thing is I want to see the peak and at what revs by gear also.
I think I get 1.4 to about 6500 in first/second, then i get the fall-off in 3/4th.

Laptop will be the next step.....

With the commander you can get it to display boost and revs on the same graph, do a WOT run thru a gear, then qickly press pause after. then you will have your boost v revs plot.

Just don't turn off the ignition

Though you had dissapeared....
My mate's Smart is now 50mm lower, adjustable roll bars being engineered.
Fan assisted TMIC being engineered. Chipping done.
He is confused bt the injectors...are they off a bike or are they really Merc Benz designed?

About to start a new Sti thread, Stage 4 about to commence..

Nothing to report. Spec is working well so dont intend on changing it anytime soon

New gearsets are in. Dont know of the suitability on the strip but they work well on the road. Gears do whine but we should all be used to that from the other gender. Ended up costing a little more than anticipated, although a better solution in the long run (one hopes).

Need new tyres and car is idling a little rough. http://bbs.22b.com/cgi-bin/ultimateb...c;f=7;t=000821

Think that covers the lot

bit of an update: only thing i've done is repair that crack in the rear bumper that's been there since day one other than that i was driving in the Tuner GP@Donington last weekend in Mikee Singh's car, had a great time, got that competition bug now though

also drove my car in anger for the first time in ages today, first time with the stiffer roll bars etc. fookin ace it is took my favourite back road to Matlock to see a client, not one car got in my way of a perfect run, managed to blow the plugs again though, it's started to misfire in 5th gear at high rpm

you just get a constant misfire, ulmost like a juddering when on WOT at high rpm, they're only the used plugs simon stuck in when the previous plugs were found to be knackered when it was mapped, so were due to be replaced anytime soon, NGK pfr6's i think so not the best plug for my car
