Bibo - Green filter element, boost gauge, dawes (not to increase boost, just to stop over boost), knock link, 4 pots..... thats it

Moley 06 January 2008 05:47 PM

New shocks/springs, Anti-lift kit, and brakes all going on in the next few weeks (getting ready for Brands on 22nd Feb), then probably new engine after it blows at Brands!!! :D

If it doesn't blow i'm getting some bodywork sorted (rusty arches) and rear tints, and maybe some carbon goodies.

After that i've been told by my fiancee we're getting getting our own place this year, so the mods will be on hold for a while. (about 25-30 years i think) :D

Cornelius 06 January 2008 06:11 PM

Hmm, don't think Ross is the only one? :wonder:

After foolishly getting on a set of scales recently, Have decided it's time to improve my own power to weight ratio, can't stand the idea of a diet, so it will have to be more exercise. But before i start, had to mod and upgrade my chosen method of pain infliction (exercise).

Fitted a lovely set of XT shifters and a Georgeous Charge Spoon saddle today, just need to sun to come out and a bit of motivation, and i'm on the road to slimness! :rolleyes: :D
