Gareth, I have 'Proper' alloys myself, and they are 18s. And they are in the silver, the proper colour for alloys

Wuz, are you or are you not looking to put your standard brakes back on? You must be the only person I know who modifies back to oe Youll also find my cheap oe alloys are speedline Why would i be p155ed of russell, I am pushing more bhp than you

Does anyone know if Gareth Allen has got the BRD turbo off his MY99 and if he still wants to sell it?

Someone has to know - Gareth, I would like to talk business

All thats left to do is remap (and hopefully buy Gareths Turbo off him leaving a VF28 for sale) and all will be well

Since when were the AP's and Godspeed discs standard (DOH!)

Your just P####D off because your "cheap" wheels can't fit proper brakes behind them (HA,HA,HA,HA,HA,HA,HA,HA)

Craig, Russell is running his standard MY97 chip 208 bhp, with a standard exhaust.

The MY00 (mine) is 215 bhp, plus TSL Decat centre section, scoobysport backbox, itg panel and optimax. I am etimating 230 to 240 bhp.

Martin.

11kg a corner with diablos

abot 7 or 8kg with the 16s. So yeah it will accelerate faster due to less inertia and rolling mass. all the drag boys run as small a wheel tyre combo as possible, as well as the lightest.

If i rember correctly, I arrived first at the old mill inn

Not making excuses craig, but after an ecu reset months ago, it seems to have lost its sparkle?

Maybe it will come back with a couple of mods

At the moment the standard ecu is back in the car (has been since the engine rebuild) and so Martin is correct at the moment about the power output (but we both know that this is not for much longer don't we Martin)

The Godspeed discs are fried at the moment and so the OE items have to go back on until the replacements arrive (NOT THROUGH CHOICE! Martin, you know what the Ap's were capable of as your wounds inflicted by the seatbelt on your body testafy to!

Ecu reset lost its sparkle! more like its due to the 3tons of hifi you carry in the car! Kenwood! PAH!

See ya eventually (could be 8 weeks B4 I get home)

Rus, yes thoughs APs are monstorous. Doesn't stop you trying to over do it coming into kingswells though does it

Its not just kenwood, there is also alpine and infinity in there as well. Besides more weight over the back = more traction saying that craig has a stash of hi-fi gear n'all.

As for the 'sparkle' it just feels if it is holding back for some reason. It does not feel the same as when I first bought it. maybe its just me

8 weeks wtf going on there then Rus. You going to Angola with it then? or got to do your stint on the labrador first?
