Bluewater is a good venue, they used to do them at Medway by Nando's which is also a good shout but there is no cover if it rains.

There's nothing cool about a Renault lolol would of man but by the time I'd finished talking and was ready to leave it was 12, and I was supposed to pick the mrs up at 1030
Lol ops. She should have come to the meet.

Custom FMIC, back door entry
Custom Radiator , moved over to allow FMIC back door piping.
RW developments Manifold
RW developments screamer
RW developments downpipe
For those that don't know making a manifold for a td04 11b is no easy task, custom flanges and countless hours of mocking up. The proof is in the pudding guys it spools up quicker than a stock ct9 and is so much fun.

Good price mate would love another set of Cusco's

How did you manage to cook WMS's?
Not the 4 pots only the standard 110% discs and pads.
-
Glad it's up and running, really like that turbo setup. Do you have a power graph from mapping?
You don't cook calipers..
What pads were in it? How new is the fluid? How much were you braking? There are a lot of variables to brakes, the last one can be more of an issue than people think.
Standard Calipers... Only the WMS 110% heavy duty discs and ds2500 pads. Nothing special. Had a few people set brembos on Scoobs on fire ;-). In terms of me cooking the brakes it was a general term as in they were defo not slowing me down.
Pretty dissapointed in them so far but my rear discs are still not working so nice rears and pads and a good bleed and they should be okay.

BIG BIG UPDATE :
Right I've been mad busy prepping the car and also Abbotts car for the Ring, now I'm home with the old girl safe and sound and have sorted some bits it's time for an update.
Well after coming back from Deans and Abbott and Halifax helping get the car ready I went to Ed @ Fusion motorsport for a nice safe road map.
We set off and I bought the car on boost ................. Clutch slip, so to cut a long story short I went for a nice CC Clutch and fitted it along with a perfect condition flywheel, new rear crank seal and new drive shaft seals. I also Installed a set of Powerflew mounts, HT Leads and also my Greddy Oil cooler.
A massive thanks to Abbott for letting me have the oil cooler and not paying for it, of course I will one day ;-). The clutch is lovely and car now runs like a dream. Pics below :-).
Once the car was back on the Road it was off to a mates for a quick Geo setup new track rod ends, unseize the rear calipers and fit the rear panhard rod, also a general check over before heading over to the ring for my Annual trip.
Fitting the cooler.
All back together and a clean and polish before going to the Docks on the 1st of May, It has always been on my hit list to take the Starlet so I thought hey I left the P1 tucked up in the garage and took the Starlet.
We arrived safely at our usual Hotel and had an amazing amount of fun on the way down with the rest of the guys, the car performed amazing. I managed some quickish laps but as soon as it dried out and I pushed I killed my WMS brake upgrade as Abbott was behind me and all he could smell was brakes, come round a few more corners and saw me indicating over. Like a good mate he drove past laughing :-).
Anyways so next year I'll be upgrading the brakes and also the suspension as mine is now knocking it's tits off.....
Some pics of the trip.
Adjusting panhard rod.
