Of course its still happening.

There is no reason it wont be going ahead.

I dont think ill be there the way things are going.

All due to sh|tbox cars like snowys, irish & handbags.

Ash you don't even have a car. It's just a myth.

Yep this day is all about fun. Bring any car, run it, no pressure.

This is true...Ash has a mythical car...only comes out in fantasy land...only joking...lol

Whats up Ash?...You offered Paul your driving services.....plus it will be great to see you.

Trust me...I am more friendly in person.....

Scotsman...if thats your car on the avatar....we are going to look like twins when you see mine...

sif Scotsmans car is fast. I'm looking forwards to this day just so I can beat him.

kw's FTW! :dry:

:banana: Not much skill involved here, hey snowy :)

Question is can you get a better time than Chris, if he was to drive your car :)

**Just stirring the pot, buddy.............only said in light jest ;)**********

I second that, Tekin is a great guy in person, shame you weren't at DECA. :P

Have never taken my car down the 1/4 so will be interesting to see what it does.

LOL

Actually I will probably have painted my CF bonnet QM1 white by then. Getting sick of the crappy quality thing with all it's cracks and poorly laid carbon. Makes the car look cheap.

Thanks Alan,

I was just discussing the other day, there should be a sarcastic thread.

I would run it...lol

Anyway look forward to seeing you there.

Oh...goes for the rest of you too.

LOL

I heard the best thing to do is to sand and clear seal...like the UV coating applied on some rims.

Must see how much the panel beater couple of doors from my work, will charge me...lol.

Take care

    • Well, in 2007 he must have been charging about $1800 an hour. He only looked at the car for 5 minutes. And another 4 to write the report wrong, and another minute to correct it. Mind you, this was for a car that was: Stock engine, fmic (hole in drivers guard), all alloy intake and custom air box, 3 inch turbo back exhaust, lowered, and a set of 17" Advans (255/40/17 rear and 235/45/17 front). It was nothing crazy. The blue slipper wanted the "hole in the guard" engineered. But that was because he got the shits that I wouldn't "relocate the battery from the boot, back to the factory position in the engine bay"... In an R33 GTST...     Also for emissions, E85, and don't go wild on timing. It's amazing how the closer you get ignition timing towards max torque, the last couple of degrees really throw NOx counts right up. And for the huge increase in emissions, it's only a small increase in torque.
    • He'll be looking down and swearing about "the damn apprentice" for trying to convince Duncan to use percussive maintenance... 😛  
    • I swear at my GKTech ones every time I have to take them apart and replace a spherical. But I wouldn't swap them for anything else. They absolutely slay every other option, at least in terms of how they actually work. You sure you don't want to live with bearings? I mean, they don't have "ball bearings". They are rod ends and sphericals throughout. Tough as nuts, even though I have found more than one way to wear them out.
    • From when I was looking at getting the 86 engineered for the turbo, the joint said to put in a few euro 5 or 6 cats, then tune the car on a nice clean E85 tune When I was looking at a turbo for the MX5, it was basically the same thing, a couple of cats and a nice clean tune Although, it will depend on the year of the Jeep IRT emmisions standards required, and what mods are done, especially if it has a newer engine installed that requires a higher Euro
    • Yeah - but it's not actually that easy. There are limits for HC, CO, NOx and particulates. Particulates shouldn't be a concern in any petrol engine unless trying to comply to the very latest Euro standard. But getting a tune right so that all the others stay within limits AT THE SAME TIME is not a trivial exercise. You couldn't possibly get it right by just guessing at the tuner's dyno, unless he had a 4 gas analyser up the pipe, which is not often the case these days. It used to be. Every decent shop that did "tune ups" (as opposed to tuning) would have a 4 gas analsyer. Perhaps there's still quite a few of them around these days. But most "tuners" are only watching O2 and power readings.
