Welcome back fella! Looks mint

Haha awesome, it's random how u get quality stuff in at work.. On a side note, look what we had come in the other day... track prepped e90 m3.. :-))

Quality effort on track was good meeting you also! Looking forward to the build mate and another tack session :-) cheers si

she should be fine For a good while mate, power is well within bottom end capability just keep oil up and keep it cold with a good ammount of fuel and you should be fine.. Oh and always cool her down properly after ;-)

X3 top bloke over the last 4years!

Yeh something in that region. .6 bar on hybrid so effectivly .8 on a ct9 so I should imagine 155-160bhp.. I think it's all down to how you drive the thing aswell, it was taking ctr's, tegs etc etc without too much trouble... haha that's the way ;-)

I know mate it's crazy, never had any sort of accident and going through insurance etc.. It's just ridiculous hassle. It's like you pay them all year or for years in my case then they make you do all the work out of cheek aswell!

haha you would have thought aftyer last time aswell mate haha thanks mate haha get on it!!! also shell's are cheap, so who cares if you crash haha! lol.. just dont take someone out lol! yeh he does seem abit odd... and haha, thanks mate, i only picked her up 2weeks ago and the spec is baddddddddddd haha.. stnd brakes for both of us then = total loss! haha! but your right i had no faith in my first session after brake issues but they were ALOT better in the second.. how random.... also on a side note, just read about your issues with your car on tgtt.. been out the loop for far to lo

yeh anything that is a degreaser if you want to stick something.. brake / clutch cleaner, halfords do a foam style degreaser, or just meths works aswell.

Update : Did a compression test tonight as the old girl has been using abit of oil.... a litre and abit in just under a week.. It appears not to be throwing it out the back according to several different people who have followed me and it is not leaking... it has baffled me a little.. anyhows results are as follows...... cyl 1: cyl 2 : cyl 3 : cyl 4 : They all apear to be between 150-160 which i am happy with tbh, its not the highest but its consistent and surprise surpise the cyl that was lowest was no.3! its not used hardly anysince since i gave her a top up after track..

Cheers mate!! they are my old ones from sham Thanks mate and haha im looking forward to the montage cheers fella, you ripped up the track well! and yeh true, it looks alot better, i.e how it did at japfest2 but hmmm we shall see what the insurance company decide to pay out.... if and when they pay out... and haha yehhh rip it out get your hands dirty and stick it back in!! lol. looking forward to another track day but up against you next time

Indeeed it is, my mate who owns a bodyshop has pushed alot of it out and it looks sooo much better as it was creased at jf2... It sucks and does ruin the car but she will get fixed ;-))

Love it mate ;-)

off topic...... Another 2 tone mk1. HERO! Lol ^^^^

cheers mate thanks alot :-) and ha I tried my best, sorry I screamed it around the wrong side of you throught the s-bend, was trying to shake of the ep3 I'd just passed on the last lap haha! Was good meeting you to mate :-) haha cheers nick, and lol it was jokes, them guys in that Rex cracked me up, "yeh that's properly sorted" pffft shut up mate it's pretty much stock lol. Will be good to catch up at jae fella :-)

Haha its a good way to be! and yeh they will come... power will come when i have uprated brakes, arb and some coilovers then we shall get the camera out!

Haha, if you crash you crash, thats the mentality you have to have, thats the last thing on my mind when out haha, im just "abit competitive" lol and i will take anything on haha nah mate, i think it was 7 cars id done before i reached the rx8. took 3 in the first bend, one of which was krissyb in his fiesta st lol... id forgoton about the rex and had my eyes fixed on that grey ctr that was pulling away from the rex earlier in the vid.. which i passed on the final lap down the straight after we both did someone round the outside on the last bend = result!! haha!

indeed mate, the spec is so bad aswell haha and its only got 160ish hp i reckon. I am abit of a nutter when i get into it on track ha! ( in a good way she gets pushed HARD lol )

P.S massive thanks to rob for helping me with it all aswell as normal haha! he was fortunate enough to have some time off work to get her ready!!

Thank you mate Cheers fella, its catchy isnt it! good to meet you at JF2! Cheers mate and i agree it is nice to be different... and just as mental as before, but this time track spec not drag... Oh and i wont be a dickhead and get rid of this one :-) lol ha!

Update : And now for some bad news..... Some penis reversed into the o.s.r qtr pannel going through her insurance so hopefully itl get something back towards fixing her... got her quoted at work today... £1500-£1600... uh-ohhhhh

Update : So when i brought the car, the collector had dropped off the manifold..... bad times.. so it was in two pieces. I took it into work and got one of the guys to get his "racing pidgeon" out and sew it back together haha!! And then fitted it the friday before Japfest 2... and gave her a quick clean after....... and added my lovelyyy 2x option & zep stickers

Thanks for the kind words guys She is abit funky lol.. i was toying with the idea of getting her painted deep purple as it does really need spraying.. but i think i kinda have to keep the oem colours

this was filmed from the guy who had the silver rx8... hes been at most shows on track and gee was up against him at the first japfest for those who where there.. skip to 11:25 mins and the commentary about the "starian or whatever it is.... no its called a staranza.. oh right yeh" begins on the sharp harpin before the final straight haha! i found it pretty hilarious....
