Few little things I got done after work today, Lowered the rear, can't really see from these photos which is a bit of a wind up. But sits a lot lower. Preload I didn't touch. Also as a few of you know my waste gate decided it didn't want to be part of the manifold anymore, after welding it back on I took that shocking eBay heat wrap off, looked terrible and went brittle, not nice stuff. So now she's nice and bare again apart from a bit of titanium heat wrap around the collector as there are a few water lines very close. Gave the runners some love with a Brillo and wa-la. Also a quick

3.5 v8 is indestruable, only weakness is if your crossing fords etc it in, but even then that can be solved by a silicone glove filled with Vaseline then cable tied over the dizzy. Always gonna be juicy, obviously will be better if it's on a newer LPG system. Old mans had loads for work and play. LPG on a run see's about the equivalent to 28mpg I've seen these engines first hand, abused to death, and running mint on well over 200,000 miles

Cheers lads, yup it's a spec 6. Was told there were more hassle than there worth, nightmare. Bled the clutch through a lot and it's defiantly got a lot better, going to grease up my linkage today and see how it feels then. And yeah I need to get the setup done properly, there's a guy a few use round here's who charges 200 quid, but like you said people have said it's a night and day diffrence. Cheers lads

Full boost is still below 5000 just have to get used to driving it, no big deal And yeah just a bit over that

Yeah what Adam said Still, not as laggy as I thought,either that or my td04 was set up really really badly

Same as me near on Phil, I get 1 bar at 4600rpm. After that it's all a bit of a blur You'll love it

You only live once, and you want to spend 20 years of that sitting in tesco? No thanks

Sweet mate, I'm defiantly going to be looking into all that stuff very soon For the minute though there's just one problem that's starting to get a tad annoying. So I bled the clutch again tonight, got some air out, feels a hell of a lot better, can quick shift all the gears fine etc....,but when trying to select into second when moving (say anything over 40mph) it feels like the box is delaying the change? Almost like when you try to go into first whilst moving quick. The box won't allow me into second quickly unless I blip the throttle or wait for a second or two? Any ideas?

Yeah but I like company Only around 60 quid, look on JJC race and rally at heater matrix's

Does it? I've taken everything out minus the loom and it still looks and works fine. Only thing I've had to buy separately is a race heater so I can demist the windows.

No not yet, will one help that much? Front hardly lifts at all at the minute mate. And the tracking as far as I'm aware is 1.8 degrees negative camber, 0.4mm toe in and caster is all the same? Something needs doing, also clutch was dragging pretty bad in 2nd / 3rd last night, going to give the clutch a good bleed tonight, if that fails I think I may already have a box slowly dying Why didn't I stay td04....

Everything minus the loom

Pm sent

Have 2 sets of pistons here, rods, cams, springs and valves

Been doing loads of looking into them mate as I really wanted to order a set soon, I think they use the same pads as a small set of 4 pots brembo make. That was the only thing that was putting me off buying them ( if they discontinue the kit the pads will be a nightmare to get hold of ) Minus that, I'm gonna be getting a set soon, the discs look sexy as hell. I hope they work as well as they look to be honest

Cheers Phil, to be honest I'm seriously considering putting it up for sale soon, love the raw power delivery! But 2nd and 3rd are pretty much un-useable unless your going in a straight line....not sure I might just be overthinking it. Gonna get some new tyres then see how I feel Hahaha, they didn't even attempt to strap it down properly I was pretty scared at first :/ No problems always here to help And Gheeeez that's cheap!

Not too sure mate I just found them on Facebook, all the ones I've seen of you I've tagged you in Thanks mate

These the ones on RHD with floating discs?

Yeah I know man, sorry I didn't have time to talk you could see I was in stress out mode And 217bhp, was spinning even in 5th , guy gave me my money back in the end!

Cheers mate and I'll have a look now? If your saying there bloody amazing I'll consider it

Saw that video man, left more rubber than the drifters After seeing the R888r's Sunday my minds set, just no way am I paying full price, I'll get a cheap set one way or another haha

Few pictures from the weekend. Only update from the weekend is me getting prices for a set of 4 R888r's. If anyone can get a set of 4 for less than £418.00 then please let me know Oh and credit to the people that got the photos

Jf2 was a bit of a flop, ended up getting pretty stressed out in the morning from all the parking problems, then to top things the gear linkage snapping on track. minus that, car was pretty spot on, video of what happened on track here, also sorry to all the people who came over and tried having a chat whilst i was bodging the car so i could get home.....wasent a happy bunny at the time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mE6XXb__5uU
