got bored so thought id try lightening the bonnet a tad, noticed this as i was doing it - so left it here - also thought id check out where the oil on my cambelt cover is coming from, its been leaking since oulton last july so thought it was about time i checked it out - its either the...

needs must haha, got these for a very good price at anglesey i did yeah, 2 brand new ones pretty much down to or just above the wear markers haha, still got a full dry trackday at least out of my R888s on my RS4-spokes and a good 3 or 4 on these on the Pepperpots as the 2 R888s are near new and...

so i gave it its yearly service today with these items - new wheels i got the other week only for the tyres - due to personal reasons i cant make the trackday on the 2nd march so ive got a refund minus 15quid which wasnt too bad, ill be looking at doing trackdays from like april/may...

fcuking hero

good vid, 350bhp at 9psi is bloody awesome

daym haha, will do, defo doing it around march time when the cars back on the road, probs mid-end of march with the hope that there is a oulton trackday on then thats around 150quid or less! yeahhhhh get t' fcuk! haha joking, have fun mate!

tbf if it was a february or march winter trackday at that price then yeh defo cos itd after christmas and we'd see the weather getting better, but this weekends too soon and that price is too steep imo sorry for letting the team down jon, iirc you were a close second, youd be well n truely...

i know he is, i told him about it haha iv already got plans tho and not paying 155quid for a winter trackday

was close to seriously thinking of breaking this the other day then... i thought id start it up, first turn of the key after not touching it for nearly a month. drove it round the block, really wanted to take it onto some national speed limit roads to kick its head in tho, miss the noise, just...

love it leave it stripped, wack a cam in and some twin 40s instead of shitty bike carbs and win, shame your not looking into using it proper for a hero car tho

today i gave it its final wash of the year - then did this for the first time since owning it - decided to take it off the road till march, use the money on upgrading my van rather than insurance and tax on a car i'l hardly ever drive and not doing trackdays anytime soon, plus keep it...

brakes bled up and tested properly... they're savage now, crap before they've got abit of heat in them but miles better than ds2500's when upto temp! also gave the car a quick wash since anglesey!

bled the brakes up and the car was pulling to the left front slightly/sign of why the old left front brakes were more worn than the offside, so i got new refurbed calipers 2 weeks ago, then found out they were wrong, one was meant for a solid disc and both i couldnt fit the retaining springs...

New discs and pads arrived... so, old DS2500 pads, lol - and the nearside disc from where the 2 pads are down to metal came from, 2 cracks - the offside disc wasnt cracked at all, dont understand how the nearside is braking more than the offside... down to the bleeding maybe?.. as they...

cheers again mate! ah dayymmm, at least i know for next year haha shall do :)

yeh standard innit haha would go bigger but that would mean new wheels, tyres, brakes, arch work, less camber, larger rear springs... and anything bigger than 13s look daft on mk1/2s imo im kinda suprised ive kept it 2 n half years tbh haha the future, just maintain it, nothing else to...

awesome pictures!

not necesserily theyre still only 240mm brakes, so 16mm smaller than yours on your zs with nearly twice the power haha

I dont class them as a fault as the pads were low and the discs had faints of cracks in them already so i knew they'd need replacing after the trackday, so its just maintainence and now i going to upgrade them... Just ordered some Ferodo DS3000 pads, just need to pick which discs, might go for...

epic pictures niall :D nice one!!
