For amusement Steve, the VERY first time i drove Mark's grey car, was at Scoobyshootout 2005, and on the very first run i ran 10.92, car was kicking out 555bhp, on bridgestone SO2's.

When steven drove my car at marham he said "I can't get the best out of your car as that B&M quickshift is no good" Basically it was making him not be able to be as brutal as he normally is due to gearstick positioning, so the quick shift is getting taking out by paul and my original STI quickshift is going back in. Hopefully I won't miss as many gears as well

Paul is unsure now if it is the injectors??? I need more fuel pumps and a swirl pot. H e was then going to do some testing and see if it needed bigger injectors. He reckons I will be unlucky if I need more fuel pumps and bigger injectors! Just call me mr unlucky

Up the Jap Show at Santa Pod today. Eureka and I were on Total Impreza Magazine stand along with 2 Skylines?
Great day, huge turn out.
Photo's being posted here tomorrow by Eureka.

Sy, Madhammer, Steve, good job you were not racing today, the queues were the whole length of the pit lane all day and sometimes three abreast !

Clive, there was a white road legal classic with green writing on doors (TA Racing) ?? I think ran an 11.059. Do u know him? Smashed 2nd gear to pulp.

In exactly the same boat myself Steve, 850cc injectors running high IDC's due to a pump that can't keep up with the demands of 3.8 bar base pressure and 2 bar of boost.
I am going to try and under bonnet located 1 litre swirl pot with a Walboro in tank and a Bosch under the bonnet.

Best of luck !

Steve: woundn't the Bosch motorsport pump be a good option opposed to the 044, or are they similar power?.

Matt C informed my that they are hand built and ultra reliable, as in my anti surge kit. They run those on the GS.

Yeah, nice weather and some great cars. I think that I've still got pieces of rubber stuck up my nose from watching the drifting for too long

I didn't just take pictures of your water-dog, I took a few pictures of your engine bay too. It wasn't until I'd walked away from the car that I realised whose car I'd been ogling... I think that you're going to need a bigger sign to list your mods soon!

It sounds like a swarm of bees in my fuel tank when I turn the ignition on.
My car is pretty loud and on tick over I can still hear the pump.

If any of you guys use Youtube or suchlike, download "Google Chrome".

Using Google Chrome type in Youtube then watch it. It's much faster and the footage is generally much better.

Fastest on the net by a mile

Scooby Sprint Championship

I will be back at the pod on 4th July with my new drag wheels and a little weight taken out Deffo trailering this time too to run as little fuel in the tank as poss.

Nice pix Steve.

I notice a large chunk has been removed from the 3rd picture down.

you have either cut out that four ton PR girl walking around in basically nothing OR the somewhat embarrassing moment your drunk wife dropped them, and had a dump in public?

mmmmmmmm
