My car has gone......... :-(
« on: 12 May 2008, 10:57 »
BUT..............only for a few days :laugh:

The long wait is nearly over and my car has gone in for some much needed mods.

Just as a refresher ....with a new addition, here are the mods going on.

1. Eibach coilovers - lowering 35mm
2. Autotech front and rear 25mm lightweight ARB's (felt them today and they are really light!)
3. Rear hubcentric spacers to fill the arches.
4. APR torque arm insert
5. Forge Twintercooler (sprayed black with black hoses)
6. Autotech fuel pump upgrade (they will look at the lobe and bucket for wear at the same time)
7. New addition - Autotech uprated injectors - JBS are going to put these on as well to see if the car gets any benefit from them. If it looks like it doesn't and the turbo is nearly at it's max capacity, then they will remove them and obviously there's no charge.
8. Full car specific custom remap to suit the mods on the car.

I'm getting just a little excited now :laugh:

Roll on the rolling road day :evil:

Only 3 mods left then:-

1. Brake upgrade to the TAROX 10 pots, which I've been told are on their way back from Italy with new bell housings :drool:
2. New alloys and tyres for those special days
3. Quaife ATB LSD.

Can't wait :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool:

Nice, Going to be an absolute animal when its finished. When the brakes are on you'll be embarassing some serious machinery on track days.
