Both sets of wheels look amazing, how have you got it running so much power? Is that not putting strain under the engine??

Thanks, no strain as the motor is quite strong. A Revo K04 Scirocco on P3 made about 35whp less than me on the day.

Thanks. No rubbing, I am running 3mm spacers in the rear and my fenders have been rolled and pulled out all round.

Thanks for all the kind words guys  :cool: The car has run 235km(true trapped speed) from standstill to 1km on a local track when it had less power. I am aiming to run 240+ now on the 1km.

Thanks, how I wish I could fit a BBK but I can't due to the fact that my track wheels are 17inch. I have upgraded the pads, lines and fluid though.

brave man, having had a car with some Alcon 370mm 4 pots on last week the stock ones are shocking

worth considering the porsche boxster upgrade as they work with the stock 312mm discs and i think fit under 17s
