Awesome photos!!
:dance: :dance: :dance: lol. Gary Sinise (forest gump, Crime Scene Investigation my mate tells me. I dont have a Tv, just a laptop permanantly on forums!) is the one on the left, not sure who the one with the badge is. As for the mesh, I bought this particular car because it looked like it was set up with plenty of safety lee way for driving at its limits, so think I'm going to leave it without mesh. Put some new pirelli P zeros on the rear today hmmmmmmmm nice. Would like some uprated brakes, possibly intercooler, but everyones got their shopping lists so I think I'll just enjoy going fast for now. Got oil pressure, oil temp and exhaust gas temp gauges going on tomorrow so I'll be able to see exactly how shes running when pushed hard. Then I can decide If there is any need for better intercoolers,etc. I love the way it looks but love the way it drives (fffaaaassssttttt) even more. Dave ps if anyone wants photos done, my mate said I can pimp him out! :dance: :dance:

Turbo failure?????????
Just a bit of a random one ,but thought I'd mention it. Have you checked things such as wastegate connections and the like? I doubt both turbos would go at the same time and surely one turbo would still produce at least some noticable pressure in the manifold. People seem to jump to the 'my turbos have gone' conclusion but its often something less drastic. Yours wild guessing ,Dave

Throwing away your porn...?

Octane booster
Does anybody use octane booster. Was thinking about getting some for the track day at castle combe on the 15th aug. Wondered if it was worthwhile, figured it would be good if I was pushing the car hard. But does it matter that the car is not normally running on that octane level (mapping,etc)? Dave

Awesome photos!!
That'll be the gimp that hangs around down there. I had to chase him away. I'm actually good looking by the way...... Hmm they look a lot better on the prints..honest (so do I.Not) Whoops forgot this one earlier, I like this one the best. Maybe I'm getting a bit too excited over this.... :dance: :dance:

Awesome photos!!
My mate just brought back the photos he took of the car. They are incredible. I'm absolutely chuffed with them. I'll post them after dinner as he's done a cd copy as well. Dave ps :ttiwwop: edit: ok here they are. They look better in very hi-res and printed. edit2!: Seems to be best if you save them and open them on your own computer ,they dont look right through my browser. Very jerky, but ok when right click saved and opened up again! strange.. :dance: :dance:

Clarkson finally gives back his GT40
I looked at it last week and it had a query at the bottom: 'should jeremy keep his gt40?' Must have just changed. F**k what a thing to have to give a dream car back for! I wonder what he would say if he reviewed again on top gear. I've got a DVD where he calls it the ultimate car. Guess he should of got a Zed.

Query?
Cheers tony, didn't want to keep phoning you and asking questions! Is this just on certain gears or something as it has only done it a few times and reguarly give it some welly (just in the interest of research,obviously!). Must admit I didn't realise I should have been changing gear before this, it pulls so hard all the way through the range. I wasn't planning on JAE as I'm going to castle combe on the 15th (jtuner, newera etc are there too so hoping for some phots). But JAE is so big and popular that maybe I should just for a weekend out. Maybe I'll go and check with the long haired boss, see if she fancies it. Thanks again tony, Dave ps My mates developing some photos at the moment, if they are good I'll post them. :dance: :dance: :dance: edit pps - just noticed the car used to be leather (autotrader advert in history). Did you put the new seats in?

A Complete Miscarriage of Justice
Signed this the other day after seeing it on UJCC. Completely agree with you. There's no way the fiesta would have been a match for the nissan and the fact that the fiesta was ahead of the nissan when it crashed proves it for me. EVERYONE should sign this.

Will post answers later!!
Unfortunately April the 13th was a friday and all the assassins break free from their room and kill everyone. Much to the amusement of the photographer who captures it all, who then spontaenously combusts while developing his phots due to the raging fires in the room next door.

power steering leak
Theres an faq in that section for when someone removed their power steering pump and found the leak,etc. Dave

Query?
Not safety boost, running a little under a bar, the car hit about 5.5k at full boost and jerked like it does at rev limit and lost boost pressure due to this . But a second later was back to its perfect running self, with full boost on acceleration etc. Its only happened twice but I'd like to know what it is. Other than that the car is sweet as a nut. Will try some diagnostics if it ever starts doing it again. Don't think anything will show up normally (vts for instance) though as its only happened twice. Maybe its just a dodgey connection. Just thinking, doesnt the e-01 record the runs on memory stick or something? gonna have to read the destructions! Cheers for any suggestions. Dave

Did some polishing today, please congratulate me!
Bucket, water, sponge, maguires shampoo, followed by maguire's scratchx (just because it was knocking around and thought I'd try it, took 3 bloody hours!), and then triple wax polish. Hopefully it'll last for 6 months as I can't be arsed to do it again.

Did some polishing today, please congratulate me!
He told me that he used to have a 'nice' car but someone went into the rear. He didn't get any money from the insurance though cause it was worth less than his access (must have been REALLY nice. Don't know how he worked that out if someone went into his rear?
