Early risers can get there for 10, that way the later risers might still be able to leave with us @10.30

Yeah H+R's are well known springs, looking at the last few posts recently folk that have fitted eibachs have only seen a 10mm or so drop , might leave it and get some avo's yet still undecided.

John, sounds like (if you're keeping the car) AVO would be the best bet.

Fully adjustable ride height sounds mighty sexy innit!

I dont know what you do for a living, but with all that money it sure makes me wonder why I ended up in Construction Management!!!

I think I might go back to school and learn streaming (whatever that is).

Saturday looks like it is going to be cold...hats and coats the order of the day.

Chris...nice to see that you have caught the "bug"

See ya all later, MD.

I can give u a hand fitting it if you want, its real easy..like you say though you're gonna need a boost gauge before, makes life easier if (unlike me) you get one that reads psi. Steve (Terzo) had a smart gauge in his, they a pi55 easy to rig up also.

Cheers

John

Wot no answers?

Mega, are you outside working on your car?

Are you still going on Saturday even though you have boost prob or are you putting it back to standard?

Chris, have you got your spoiler on yet?

MD.

MD, I turned the Dawes down quite a bit...Its running a tad over 15psi peak and about 14.5 held, seems happier now

I'm going to try and calm down the mods a bit now, we'll see for how long though hence the golf to try and calm the mind

See you all Saturday

Just a qiuck post to say I won't be able to make it to the petrol station, and might not even make it to Bolney as somethings just come up.

if I do come then it'll be around lunch time.

so might see you there, then again, maybe not.

"Calm down the mods a bit"...as my daughter would say, "YEAH RIGHT"

We will see, what is 14.5 psi? (I think it is 1.0bar)

Golf...mmm I keep saying I will have a go, lots of my mates and my brother play, I even have a 9 hole field thing up the road from me.
Not really any excuse I spose, but given the choice I would rather empty the bank account on the Scoob.

Chris, good to hear it, spose you have been driving round boosting and listening to that induction kit...am I right, am I ???

I have been popping and banging all the way home now that I have found out how to "on demand"...when I have saved enough pocket money I will get the ss centre for the exhaust...flames (?)

Red car Andy, Hope it all comes together for Saturday...look forward to meeting you.

M.Chicane, dont worry too much about not making it, there will be many more oppertunities to do it.

Looking forward to it but...my car is not going to get washed

See ya all, MD

ps. John, You will find boost differences with ambient temp change, I am just ok with mine (1.28bar) in this weather, anything too cold and wham! OVERBOOST! Turn down the evc and all ok.

Nice to see you lot at the Bolney meet, wow nuff cars.

It certainly made me feel discontent looking at those Skylines and Supras on the way down the M23

But after we had the spirited drive home all was well again

John, (Mega) your car is not slow ! I was having trouble catching you in some places...a good engine for sure.

Chris, Your face was a picture after we had that "run" down the M26, bet you didn't think we would get such a clear road (?)

Steve (Terzo) and Nigel, nice to see you both again, and wow nasty bang on your wing, dont like seeing things like that.

Andy (STi), nice to meet you, hope the engine is ok, reckon you burnt the oil off it now ? You can start to open it up a bit

Cheers all, Moles Dad and Mole.

Edited to say that we now have FLAMES!!!

Totally agree, twas a good day out

MD, FLAMES.........no ****!! how do you get yours to pop all the time like that??

i did enjoy that blast BTW, i wont publish the speed but is was kin quick, my passenger was in shock for a while, made me grin though as you noticed.

i had to back off behind you and mega after we got onto the 228, i got savage brake fade for some reason, needs investigating me thinks.

anyway, off to scotland in the morning, will be back online next weekend.

nice meeting you all again, and for the first time, andy with the (rather quick) red sti.

chris

Yup was a good outing
Had to check the front of my car after MD flamed me going past on the M26 to M20 slip

We'll have to sort gathering to PE for a roller session, I wanna see what mines kicking out now, she was feeling strong down the bypass on the way home

Never been, anyone know how much it is for a session?

John

Well, a good day out!

Nice to meet you all again, shame some of you had to leave bolney early (you missed all the rain...luckily I took my armbands!).

Thanks to Andy (red sti) for an "entertaining" drive back from Brighton complete with flames & powerslides!

Chris, I'd be quite happy to go to a R/R day, so count me in!

Regards

Steve.

It was certainly a good day, I think they should sort out some trade stands or summink so that those who have pocket money can waste it on something for the car

Chris, I get the pops from full decat and the HKS ssq dump valve, double blipping on the loud pedal chucks a load of unburnt fuel into the zorst...bang

I have not long had my car on the PE RR, I think we will still be up for a Saturday outing to join you lot if you do it.

I think if you get 30 cars you will get a reasonable discount, also we need to organise bacon rolls and tings cos its a long day.

Keep us posted please, MD and Mole.

Chris D,

Let me know if you ever organise a Medway /Maidstone trip to PE for the rolling road. Let everyone laugh at what my almost un-modded Scooby chucks out.

Stuart
