Hey chaps, I've been through most of the best photos from yesterday. As I said before, I was there for one main reason, with the guys at burpspeed. So my attention was mainly focused on their car. I did take a few snaps of other cars too, but I can't guarantee I shot every car. If I didn't...

I'll admit mine isnt fully stripped, but it's not too far off either! I have to disagree with those points. It doesn't bother me at all, not even on our euro trip which was over 2000 miles! Ask anyone on the trip, no-one complained about the car at all. Yes you cant carry passengers....but I...

Nice seats! When are you going to strip it then?! ;)

Brembo HCs are £45 delivered atm from Brembo Direct!, theres a link on here somewhere. Doubt anyone could beat that.

Awesome. Ive just realised that when you pick it up, I have a few trips on at work. But we'll sort something out mate.

Looks mint mate! Still fancy getting together at some point for a shoot of this maybe?

Whereabouts are you based Justin?

Hopefully they'll have some better ones tomorrow ;)

Tony, get them wheels sprayed white ASAP! ;) Looking very mean chaps, tomorrow will be interesting!

What?! I thought you were doing this one?

Quite a variation in those bodies! What would you want it for? And for the filters...again....want would you want them for? We cant tell you to get a filter without knowing what you would do with it.

How about black and white instead?

No

Woohoo! Where's our copies Neil!? ;)

You keep forgetting this is a 182 vs 197 AS A TRACK CAR. Yes I am slightly biased towards the 182, because I can speak from very good experience after what I've done to mine as a track car. But I can't think of a single reason why you would choose a 197 to turn into a track project: - They are...

I think 2 would be better for the 'between the legs' I have my lapstrap points on the floor pan, a bit further back to where you have marked 3. Just drilled holes through the floor :)

I think he tried to compare a 197 and a 911 turbo. Words fail me.

Take that weight out of the 197, it will feel totally different! Thats a lot of weight!

Ditch the 197, get a 182, or better yet, save more $$ and get a ph1 172. That will be miles more 'raw' and fun on track than the fat heffer that is the 197.

^ If you're referring to the pic, it isnt his car. Open the thread.

For me, the only time it gets a bit loud is 70-80+ mph. Around there you do have to almost shout to have a conversation! I love it though, I can get my bikes in the back, and I can fit all my photography gear in too. Couldnt do that when standard :)

lol thanks for that :rasp:

Pretty much.

That's not really stripping the car. That's just tidying up the area where the seats where. Why do you want to do it?

This is what mine is like at the moment: (but the door cards have also gone since the photo) It's not quite my daily, but I use it a lot. Doesnt bother me in the slightest. Comfort and practicality mean f all to me tbh, hence why I did it....as well as it being a track orientated car of...

I've go no worries anybody knowing the price, it was £1700. That was for the full kit inc top mounts, re-valved, built to my spec, and the whole car corner weighted. Might be a lot, but I have no regrets. The car handles amazingly well, everyone who has been in the car has commented on it...

lol cheers mate :) Do it!

Spend it on handling/brakes instead. No risk and a much wiser choice. Im glad I didnt go down the SC route, trust me!

lol everyone's doing road trips lately ;) Nice read, looked fun! :)

Would help to give a budget :) I would say a D300s, or even D700, but I have no idea what your budget is.
