contact andy and have a Base map put on the pred so you can nurse the car (completed) to him, get him to map it for full power then drive it back home. surely that's the best option. or is this not road legal anymore?
was thwe original plan but am getting price for a package from gmc. i have an email to write to john.

why port it and have cams i will get 270+ bhp then i dont want that much. waste of money id just use more boost it i wanted more power.

trust me ive driven 200fly power car and it was enough, my estimated 200whp will be epic...

i will be running 1 bar via my charger. thats more than some do on their turbos. the difference is i go on track regular, 10-12 times a year, not fanny about up and down the roads showing off to mates and generally abusing the traffic for a short burts.

i need a engine that can take a proper 20 minute beating not a half arsed 15 minute session at fcs once a year by some novice...

on a + side ive just got off the phone to hispec. i have a brand new set of calipers coming next week once they have been made

That lad that built that silver charged saxo with the orange wheels was running 200bhp at the fly and it was seriously fast round track. All the Honda boys with there turbo'ed B16's were getting dicked on. 200bhp at the wheels matched with your driving skill... I dread to think what you'll overtake!

Good lad taking it to GMC, John will sort you out properly. Shame they're in Scotland but it will be worth every penny.

ferrari 360 moderna 450bhp



i drove this arround donington few weeks ago. epic moment for me. instructor let me give her the full beans, car drove amazing but was let down by traction control being on. it feel made the car understeer more than expected. amazing N/A power....

instructor said i was scruffy and that with half an hour with him id be going somewhere. i may get some instruction for the future lol

thought it would be worth a mention on my blog.

guess what... IVE FOUND A FOOKING DOOR!

I found this on ebay located in hull £40 but i knocked him down to £35

de-locked too


my old knackered door. i also need a wing.


door off, gave the hinge area a clean too.



door fitted along with glass and mirror.



the eagle eyed may spot something in there thats new???

old hispec brakes 283mm discs and yellow grade pads.



new ones...





with carbon lorraine rc-6 pads, fooking amazing stopping power. i had run ds2500 in past and was impressed but these rc-6 are mega aggressive. beware they kick out a shit load of dust.




behind the wheels (road/wet tyre combo r1r) for sale


the old kit off the car...


and one shot of how the engine bay is looking...


i have cadwell this saturday and then fcs at donington. straight after that this little bugger is going charged... ive had a few calls with john @ gmc and have decided on a few things.

I've run that brake combo for a while now and wouldn't want anything else.. The stopping power is incredible.
How much did you pay for them and where from mate? Been too long since I ordered mine haha

I was hoping you were going to end up racing in Northern Saloons. Shame you're going for the charger IMO
Good luck with it, and keep going with the videos!
