Alrighty folks, today was the NI TGTT Summer Meet at ECC for a rolling road session!! and what a great day! some lovely EP examples on hand and some seriously impressive other harware both inside and outside of ECC to drool over...can anyone say 1200bhp Evo???? Or Silver Shadow?? mental!!! anyways, on to the festivities. mine before heading off: PP Gaz's utterly evil looking PS13! this thing just looks savage! and what a gent to talk to!!! this is the scooby that hammered me coming out of work the other day, turns out he does work with me, and he did the same as me..."oh ho, i see gauges, play time"...the reason i lost is because he has 400bhp!!!! ah well, if your gonna loose it may as well be to a monster! Alan_e proving once and for all he loves it dirty!!!! JJayokocha's mrs's car!!!! would love to see this on the rollers one day soon!!! I need a Mrs with a skyline! First up to set the tone was Jay: Followed by the 4wd antics of a certain weejohn! Nerves got the better of me so I chucked mine in next: Smokey and the Bandit came to town: JR's animal!!! Fogdoggydog's new Corolla Compressor: I aint a Honda guy, but this thing is a work of art! aesthetically and under the hood! and this was the most uber run of the day! this wee thing was awesome!

thanks lads!!!! i was chuffed as hell!!! and for some reason when i turned round i noticed that every fecker there had come in to watch my run, i reckon it was raining outside tho lol!!!! the boost is sitting at 0.85/0.86 bar or so, altho i saw it creep up to like 0.88 the other day, odd. she holds it solid as a rock when she peaks at the 0.85/0.86, it doesnt budge! obviously we could screw the actuator out a bit more, but tbh, this is perfect for the daily commute and hunting fools who annoy me!!! Phil.

Too much talking in here and not enough pictures. I fail. So, today was the NI TGTT Summer meet at ECC, I will post pics in the Meets section for all to see. I am very happy to report that my car rolled 163.4Hp/6286Rpm with 145.6Lbf/ft/4895Rpm in 3rd gear! I couldnt be happier with that result! I wasn't expecting anything like that! I only wanted it to be plus 140hp!!!!!! I was nervous as hell!!!!!! I would like to extend my thanks to all those at East Coast Customs in Lisburn, very pleasant staff, and a great venue! But especially to Jay for getting the car to where she is!!!! it is his hard work that has produced this fantastic figure!!! i am over the moon with 163hp!!!!!!!!! Now, pics of the recent updates: The refreshed Speedlines, which are away with Paul_Glzv for some brand new Rainsport 2s!!!!!!!!!!!!!! should have them back on monday so fitment will be tuesday evening or so. Updated engine bay with WEPR hot pipe and smoothed rocker cover: and again: "i'm your turbozilla!!!!!" and before heading off to the RR day today, Mark kindly lent me his Momos: I also need to thank mark for his role as "official engine warmer and theft preventer prior to entering the rolling road booth" today, cheers bro! Phil.

interesting isnt the word. i wont steal Joel's thunder, i'll let him reveal his figure himself, but i have photographic evidence of his graph for all the doubters and haters and "oh, optimistic rollers ye??" goons that will ney-say. Phil.

very nice dude! keep it up man! Phil.

really sorry to hear this sad news my friend!!! RIP dude. Phil.

sweet project buddy! perfect for the task at hand!!!! all the very best with it man!!! Phil.

rear lip and a duck tail. would be nice to see a duck tail in red. Phil.

the strange reverb-wah-distortion noises I've been making for an hour...feeeeeedback! Phil.

u never know what the universe has in store. maybe this yr badgers will roam the english countryside. maybe next year automotive badgers may be spotted rambling on dusty highways the world over. maybe one year there will be a badger at Bonneville. maybe one year a badger will sprint the hill at Goodwood, or lap an SLR round Kirky. or maybe, just maybe, badgers will never be spotted on the mainland shores for a decade or two. maybe they will emigrate to Tsukba. Or Nashville Tennesse to drink sour mash. Or to amish country, PA. but where ever u go, whatever u do, always watch out for wandering, roaming badgers. Phil.

since Glanza_Love introduced me to Speedhunters i have been obsessed. i spend every lunch time in work reading the daily updates. it is the greatest thing since sliced bread (after UKSC of course!). just a feckin amazing site. and yes Liam, that RX7, saw that on Speedhunters the other day, that is the thing of my dreams right there. Phil.

Megadeth - Rust In Peace...Polaris Phil.

who?? me?? at JAE??? why, u must be drunk my good friend. i dont drive a white supra, nor am i the originator of the 2007 JAE saying "its not gay love, its man love" Phil.

i will only comment to say: "no matter where you go in life, no matter what you do, ALWAYS watch out for roaming wandering badgers". Phil.

as soon as I can get them to Paul and back they'll be fitted, way too early in the season for winter wheels, but needs must thanks to shitty contis. they are lush, but not nicer than the Rays. Nothing is nicer than the Rays. Evar. Phil.

mine and Joel's from a few feet away. as u can see, Joel's is a much more aggressive angle than mine. mine is horizontal and angled to the side, Joel's is angled vertically and off to the side...if that makes sense lol Phil.

Meat Loaf - Original Sin. Phil.
