As has been said above thanks all for coming. Impressive turnout and goes to show as Chris said don't be out off thinking it's not worth it as only 3/4 are going.
That is literally the understatement of 2013, we were so close to death. Bloke pulled out in to the fast lane when we were about...

Plus there's usually about 3 or 4 others turn up so should be an okay turnout
Bermuda Park Fayre & Square pub.
St Davids Way,
Bermuda Park,
Nuneaton,
Warwickshire,
CV10 7SD
at 19:30 mate.
Will meet in the car park and then make way into the pub.
I'm not sure how I'm getting there yet so won't guarentee I'll be in the car park first but I'm sure you'll spot who the...
Don't really want to say as I'll probably curse it haha, nah I'm HOPING to pick it up on Monday afternoon, ready to go.
I'll drop you a text tomorrow, let you know what's happening and if it's not ready (then watch the news for someone jumping of Beatties haha). Only joking, I'll let you know mate.
Think he is but only till either 12 or 2 irrc. Make sure you speak to him as the other lads say they can do a price that's as good...then don't even come close.
Really glad to see this is still going (reasonably) well for you mate.
Shame about the calipers but at least you have peace of mind now (and a big box of spares) :)
Pffft what a hard life, can't afford a posh tv...I can't afford new socks this month once I've paid for my car repairs lol.
Sounds about right but you'll need a Aux belt kit too which is about £60.
Adam at Renault Willenhall on 01902 439264 will sort you out the best price without doubt and will deliver.
Was partly that (pain in the arse on the drive with 2 axle stands) but also the fact I now don't have the use of the drive and couldn't afford to rent anywhere big enough to do it. Least I'll have piece of mind.
Ahh glad to hear you're getting there. If my cars sorted by monday then I'll bring the jump leads :p
I know the 'don't have the money' feeling. My cars at BTM and I'm struggling to find all the money as it is lol.
I'm sure autocar said that they had a Veyron at 100-0 in 3.4 seconds and a Clio 172 in 3.9 which is pretty astonishing?
edit: Can compare the results here. The last bit is obviously the braking e.g 911 Turbo takes 4.25

Very true.
Just re read they don't fit under 15's anyway :(
Was going to give them a try in a few months if I've got the money for brackets but 15's > fancy brakes.
Can anyone that has the brembo kit measure up so we know what sort of offset is needed.
I've got a friend with a set of calipers that I can have off him when I next see him but don't want to have to run massive spacers to clear them, iirc my offset is about et37.
Nice one Dave :) That's probably partly my fault as I sent the wrong date at first and sent a second message to change it.
I'm hoping I'll have my car for this one, really hoping.
I had to buy a battery the other week :(
I'm sure you'd rather hear that you don't need one but if you do the battery I bought was a Bosch S5, really highly rated but expensive. However I found it on ebay (brand new from a shop on there)for £56 delivered. Seller was brilliant too.
Good going Ash, always makes me smile seeing things going right for you.
I'm literally gobsmacked at how much better the wiring is now when compared to that done by a professional *ahem* motorsport company.
I'm not sure if the biggest improvement in this thread is the car or yourself?
Seems...
Fair play mate, I was just curious if the lip Nissan said they had included on the alloy was overkill or not. If it's a tried and tested alloy then you can't say fairer than that :)
They look absolutely awesome.
I remember on TopGear something along the lines of the alloys on a GTR being designed with a special rim to hold the tyre on during hard cornering. Is that not a concern with the new alloys or do you not intend to track it etc?
Hopefully be a good turnout.
Dave has said it's sometimes busy so I'll ring up and reserve a table closer to the date if people confirm attendance. I'll reserve a few extra for the people that decide last minute too
Nice one, be good to see you. It's been a while.
By the way, save me texting you our kitchen is arriving in about 3 weeks. Can let you know when soon but are you still up for the work?
