Were you any chance at the Ace in the red RST on the 24th?

I was talking to Carl with the Flint Grey Saph and you come over and started talking to him, just I think you were the same person?

Nice work! Is there more vibrations with the new mounts? Guess, if the old ones were completely knackered, there will be hard to say?!

Those mounts don't half change the way the car drives. Plus you won't rip your cv joints apart now. Car looks spot on too

update time again

gave the car a good clean today as i wanted to try my new dodo juice diamond white
and whilst i was at it Darren (f99 rev) came round with his rear seats and doorcards im having off him so we swapped it all over just the front seats to go now





















im really happy with the wax my paintwork is pretty crap but it gave it a fairly decent shine.

just waiting for my group a coil and loom then will order my fan and fuel pump loom etc.

took the car for a rolling road setup last night, 1st run showed 259bhp so we upped the boost but only raised it a tiny bit the 2nd run saw 265bhp but was running lean top end so that was sorted and we did run number 3 which come in at 262bhp @12psi so all in all very happy with the results so far
