  1. LOL!!! Yer spot on with the age group anyway!!! :rant: :D :D :D
  2. Its absolutley essential to choose the correct bodyshop. and one where they have examples of Candy bodywork to show you. And if you think you have already spent a lot of money on your car you will soon find out you need to spend the same again to get a true candy done properly. I know, I am going down that route soon, but only half in candy due to the huge cost involved. Ask Luke at Z Centre how much his man Frank would be to do the work. Im guessing over £4000.
  3. SWB and LWB are different.
  4. thats almost inevitable.. Maybe you should call me and I will try and convince you not to go down this route.I have spent huge amounts of time researching and using this type of tyre on my way to becoming ZClub Drag Challenge Champion 01773 761238. Pete
  5. Personally I think you are making a huge mistake. the Toyo 888 is a road legal track day tyre which is legal to use on the road but is not reccomended even by Toyo. Quote from Toyo..... " Caution. Carefull attention is required on wet conditions due to limited aquaplaning capabilities. As this tyre is produced with special design and compounds for competitions, NO WARRANTY IS IMPLIED." my capitals. This tyre only has 5mm of tread when new. My Kuhmo V70s track tyres are similar. They are lethal in any sort of wet conditions. Im limited to 60mph in the wet on these, and thats with them on the REAR. DO NOT fit these to the front of any road car. my opinionis that they will be downright dangerous when its wet. Ask Madhamster, he has seen me loose it sideways on my similar Mickey Thompson ET Street Radials at 40mph. And that too is on the rear. Only fit to the front for serious track use. All of course IMHO. Pete
  6. Highest NA I have seen in the states only had about 300 horses. Without Forced induction or a huge shot of NOS with forged internals it would'nt be possible.
  7. TT and NA bearings are different.
  8. ill speak to Luke when he gets back from holiday. IIRC you cant book in advance. Last time we were there when the place opened at 12.00? and went straight in and got tables. Obviously no one else can pre book either so all tables were available. The trouble was in November we didnt know others had pre booked and we all stood outside talking. LOL! And yes... its looking good so far.... Anymore coming along?????
  9. Just renewed my subscription by paypal. Paypal is pmaczc@madasafish.com
  10. which will eventually fail due to the lack of adhesion of the resin to the plastic.

  16. just as David says. Luke is away till Jan on holiday. He works closely with a local bodyshop who can fit and paint all the panels you require. Frank is a top painter. Just check out Lukes own prize winning showcar to see. Not cheap tho. But quality never is.
  17. Right then! Its lookin good so far...... BUT no more off topic chatter please..... just a list of names etc.

  20. Well you are always welcome at Midlands meets, although we dont often come further south than Leicester. normally in between Nottingham Derby and Leicester. We havent got any official Midlands Organizer either, we just arrange stuff ourselves. We also have Z Club members and Torque Power members turning up too.

  22. "Used to " is now correct. They will make you any style you want.and as loud as you want You just have to sit there while they do it.All the tips are displayed for you to choose from.
