Looking good John.

How did the car get on?
Did you have the 2 piece discs fitted?
How did you find these compared to the other set up you had before?

Car was great on the day and it didnt blow up with all the torque its got.
showed a few thats a quick on the straights and round the bends, but the track was very slippy greasy and a lot of FOG which ended the day early.

I did have my brakes fitted in time which are slightly different to yours willy, they are 325 mm by 30 mm so i didnt need any extra mounting brackets to fit them.

they worked really well and no fade all day they got hot but cool dow quickly cupracar was checking the temps on his single piece and mine and couldnt believe how quick mine cooled down after a good hammering

Vid courtesy of Jonnio xD was a lot of fun even though I didn't rag it as much as the others about.

Shame there wasn't really time for passenger rides :(

New clean car pics :D

Ive been outside in the sun for the last 2 days cleaning my car
after the winter months and alot of salt its had a full clean washed and then a full car clay bar so the paint was smooth and tar free, my arm is only just holding on after 4 hours of claying but well worth it.
Then polished up and waxed on top to seal it all in. cleaned all windows and rainx'ed then cleaned inside

Most likely at work
just read through your thread, loving the car mate! might steal the vinyl wrapped roof idea though :p

didnt realise the actuator made such a difference!if you hybrid your turbo, does that come with an uprated actuator?or would you have to get one seperate?

and one last thing, my car is running stage 2 and the boost peaks at 24psi but drops all the way down to 14-16psi in 4th gear, seems low to me, what could it most likely be?
