I spent £1400 on a uprated box around 2003 and with the ALC it certainly shifts, 361bhp at the hubs,12.94 1/4 mile,184mph in 1.25 miles too,it ran at Rockingham and did 174mph on the banked circuit,also had Sport 500 tubs,555 inj,big SMCs,bloody mental it was,was running a JWT chip but blew two engines,last engine i had it on dyno only to find that the JWT was running lean as hell top end rpm,soon got rid of that and got a JD one:D Tony:)

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/733323.htm Yes it was mine:D nice to see Rav done the works with the body,jesus looks nice,tempted to buy it,and what the ad dont say is all the other goodies on it and the 30k plus bills that me and John Newcombe spent in total.Jesus i'm tempted:cool::cool: Tony

Sure is,was mine(twice:D)I would buy it today if i had not got another a while back. Tony

Nice pics KIM,nice to meet you too.was a good day,no rain,warm and sunny,(me had slight redness to face:D)Good to see more new faces,and put faces to names off here:cool:Took off the Targas for the journey home,now i know why i love these cars,70 mile journey with the wind in me hair:D going at a fair old clip and having fun with M3 drivers;) what more can you want:cool: Tony

Me to.:(

I have not watched F1 for about 5 years,i wonder why,oh yea,a fookin circus run by a wealthy crusty old twat thats so greedy its beyond belief and proped up by a Nazi lovin fetish lovin old shithead.Silverstone fooked over(fook all to do with the track and services either!)Even the head man at Donnington has now thrown in the towel,what a fookin cock up there too.A shower of shite the lot of em!:rant: F1-Fook Everyone Tony(fed up with waiting for 30mins in a fooookin long que this mornin to post 1 fookin parcel surrounded by fookin people that dont speak English)

More of the same i feel,stunts dont look too bad(can spot the cannon pipe under the motors tho),acting a bit wiffy,cars look ok,anyone spot a Z! http://blog.cardomain.com/blog/2008/08/official-fast-a.html Tony ps,if you click on right hand side web links "NISSAN" some twats smashed up a new GTR!,nice write up tho on the road test.

Idealy zero back pressure is optimum for a Turbo,around 4" or even more especialy on high powerd cars around 700bhp or more,but the noise is going to be awfull,and your turbo has to be up for it as the seals will soon allow oil passed them,so 2.5" to 3" best suited. Tony

mmmmm sure are:cool:

Looks great,tho shame about the Strosek,i had the same problem,would not make it pass the path to drive to garage,even if it had the wide arse on it would not go into garage either.

Happy Birthday mate,:cool:

Me allso,looking forward to seeing it all spanking and finished,think this is going to be something else when all other work done too,nice one mate.:cool: Tony

Nice one Vini looks a stunner.:cool:

Use a fine wet and dry, p800 ok,lightly rub the area as to blend in the laquer edge down to the painted area then polish back up the area with T-Cut,Scratch X etc.

As you have a good low profile sidewall you will be ok at the pressures Dan says,but remember that tyre pressure increases when they get hot on the track,so in reality the pressure will be cold 36 psi,hot around 42-44psi,if you find that after a run its a bit skittish drop them around 8psi to give you back the cold value,tho with your tyre size you should be ok,if its dry conditions.If you have fairly new tyres drop them down 10psi or more as the block tread will get very hot and the grip will be rubbish,to be honest all cars are different,especialy on track days,whats good for some will be not be for others,trial and error in most cases.The cars weight,geometry,handling,etc etc all come into the equation too.Looks like the Z should be well suited to Croft as its got 3 good straights and only a few twistys.Have fun :cool: Tony

Well i have driven both,and i do prefer the auto,tho it can have quirky moments,(and if memory serves a ALC will hold the rpm better)i find that the best way when having fun is to have the O/D off,forget the power hold it comes on anyways when you WOT,and if you can do it when all around you is chaos,keep ya foot on accel and use the brake pedal to slow when needed,when you take ya foot off does the mother fly:D Tony

Welcome bud.:cool:

You should have it now. Tony:cool:
