A little something for FCS

[cK]

Andy @ GDI has kindly sent me some pics of the progress on my car so far.

Expecting to pick it up this Saturday (20th May).

A lot of work has gone into this and it's looking really good. Parts removed, smaller parts put in/replaced. Cambelt, aux belt and tensioners have also been done. Can't wait to drive/hear it.

Providing everything is running smoothly (which i'm sure it will be) you'll be able to see the car on the GDI stand at FCS06. I'll be somewhere around still perving over it...

Don't ask power output yet as it's obviously not finished.

Anyway for the pics...

Are you having anything done apart from the ITB's? Will have to wander over and take a look at FCS.

 

[cK]

Well my car is already modified but apart from the itbs, omex, cambelt etc and a suspension tweak, no. Nothing else being done. Can't afford anything else lol.

My cars supposed to be going on the GDI stand. Isn't yours too?

Would like to to track and 1/4 mile but have no pass for them.

Can't I just buy a 1/4 mile pass on the day or something? I'm sure Andy said something about a free track pass but not sure.
