The roads were clear around here yesterday but judging by the imminent freezing temps forecast, I imagine the roads will be caked in poison by the end of the day [emoji17]

Isn't something they can choose or control? Wtf?

I drove mine today for the first time this year on a special excursion with a special guest; it was great! Even just to pootle around in, the car never ceases to plant a smile across my face.

A good read Jay [emoji41][emoji106]

Loving that! [emoji41]

How much are you thinking of selling the front Brembos for Richie?

They definitely help to keep the engine bay clean. I don't think they have a real world aero benefit as they're too flimsy but they do help to control the airflow across the engine from the viscous with the pressure difference at the back helping draw the air across and out. The forward undertray helps to guide the air across the radiators, preventing the airflow from bypassing the matrix so that one is also beneficial to have installed. The side sections of the undertray are part of the forward section of the inner wheel arch trim so I assume they're still in place(?). They house the naca ducting that draws out exhaust air for the intercoolers so they are also important. You probably wouldn't notice any difference by not having them fitted, but collectively you could be slightly down on performance with potentially heat soaked intercoolers and with an already hot engine bay not being cooled as efficiently as it could be, the thermostat would have to be further open, meaning you're potentially closer to an overheat situation. Keep them all fitted I say.

They would be awesome if the PCD and offsets were compatible.

I love the design but I'm a bit of a snob when it comes to wheels. The fact that they're cast, imitation split rims would stop me buying them. If they were a genuine forged split rim (with better offsets) which unfortunately would cost 4 times the price, I'd be dribbling!

Much better [emoji106] A great addition to the OEM wheel those GZA emblems.

Keep the 'tache [emoji41] It's a great looking car, really liking this project.

Z badge is upside down dude [emoji41]

Neat arch work [emoji41]

It's my car, randomly with Mondo's wheels photoshopped on. Not a pic I recall seeing before but they do look pretty cool!

I feel to need to go and check my garage!

Simon is talking about the bulbs in the '89 spoiler mounted TBL Andy. I'm not sure if they're the same bulbs as the perspex strip mounted TBL just in case anyone gets confused with which ones are compatible.

Happy Birthday Darren [emoji106]

PICS FFS [emoji13]

You're Australian?

Those OZ futuras are bloody lovely!

One of the bests shows of the year, I'm in!

Congrats Stephen, that sure is some winter works! Hope all is well [emoji106]

It's a lovely looking car.

Good stuff [emoji41]
