Quick video chasing my mate Dan who's car is basically identical spec if achieved through slightly different brands of components and ITB's instead of RS2. Nothing in it really now which is mint for a dice up on track.
Mint day at Cadwell park chasing my mate about in same car. Weather was banging and despite still having some brake issues car went well.
On track photos to follow when javelin release them
No mate not actively, had few offers but can't part with it, may change when I need a deposit for a QV after I steal @Cub. for a blat at CFS later in the year though .....
Not updated this one in ages either, car passed MOT earlier this year with advisory for ARB bushes but I've collected whole genuine OEM suspension refresh setup so that'll go on along with powdercoated subframe etc later in the year.
For now it's SORN and stored in a unit for the year whilst I...
Cadwell tomorrow and totally forgot that the battery was just zip tied to the PMS gearbox mount and flapping about like a 80 year olds ball bag, so quick go with the Bosch drill and boom, 'fabricated' a battery tray.... That'll do pig, that'll do

@Autolaca82 check my project thread or the RB thread and you'll see plenty
@Tez. Nope, all original apart from standard service items when required
@Mbeau knowsit, 1/4 million mile trackday coming up
Annual update, rust is worse, refreshed suspension with new cup shocks all round, eibach sportlines and new wishbones/bushes/track rods etc etc. Driving a peach now and back on scene wheels too.
Oh it was bonus time at work last month too so despite trying to hard to resist buying something completely pointless....I caved... And by God is it a lovely piece
Yeah all about servicing really, my 182 has had oil and filter every 6k miles since new along with all other servicing as and when. Also same as above, engine and gearbox never been rebuilt or opened.
So to fix the fuel leak I've ripped the aux tank off, split fuel everywhere and found more rust, plus the cap is now the phase 2 one from the grey car as they changed the design between phases so I'll need to paint that at some point.
Okay quick update, already done one trackday this year and I've put the odyssey into storage to concentrate on using this thing more. So first one was Donington last month and car was superb, couple of niggles with brakes but since then I've flushed new fluid through and got new rc6 pads to fit...
