  1. both anna and nat. can you possibly ask for more ?? should bring the boys flooding down lol
  2. cool nige, how many kids on the front of that book ? and where they popular ???
  3. it seems im fighting a losing battle here. an expert put tyres up against the wheel looked inside the arches did lots of calculator tapping and said no to 888`s they cost more than the t1r`s ??? so i really dont know if it was the wide wheels or the fibreglass wings or relating to the camber setting. i just dont know!!!!! if you have last septembers the golf magazine have a look at how it sits at the front, that may explain things . or try awsomegti.com click rolling road and see the top ten cars,click on vr6 turbo and you can see the car on a video when it was just completed (running 42
  4. right here goes. please let me know if or how many would attend a sat or sun in the next month or so while the weather is good to SUNNY SOUTHEND ON SEA. to be exact shoeburyness east beach in the afternoon then southends famous seafront in the evening. east beach is a few miles past southend but very easy to get to (im sure some vr6oc signs can be put up at turning points to help. it has a huge field (grass) that has road to one side and down the centre,so not too bad for low rides, also a huge beach that when the tide is out allows you to walk right to the edge of the famous maplin s
  5. ben, i thought this too but my odd size wheels and silly low arches would not allow the 888`s that would fit the rim to be used. (27 mm taller) the first thing i asked for was 888`s he did lots of calculations and said no. i take his word as he is in the tyre buisness for 20 odd years and races at pod in his own car for 15 years. if he says no then who am i to argue.
  6. ghettovr you will lose 3rd gear soon, im sorry but it will happen. get a replacement gearbox asap and fit it . £150 now, against a whole lot more + headache later.i have broke 2 boxes and its no fun. do it now pal. i use an apexi boost contoller and have many settings mainly 3 (0.5/1.0/1.5 bar) it was all set up for the smaller housing so i need to play a little to suit my needs. if you cant afford a peloquin or quaife lsd then there is a company called obx (usa) £299 and there good for 700hp,(see fleabay) the dollar is silly weak against the £ at the mo so you will get a great deal.
  7. thanks all for nice comments. got new toyo t1s today. after a long conversation on triple 8`s only to find they will not fit my in my arches ,then toyo t1r`s being too hard a compound. but i went from 195`s to 215`s (stretch look to mass overhang) big traction i hope, but only done 4 miles home so far , 50 more to scrub in and i will feel the benefit. pics to soon come. one love
  8. hoping for 3 pod dates, a few north weald and maybe this track night thing at snetterton. as for how to get the power down. gently very gently lol.
  9. mate stay well clear. cheap crap. speak to c2 motorsport on here and also take advantage of the very weak dollar. garrett turbo`s alone cost more than that kit . dont go cutting corners with anything over 350hp you will regret it. do it right the first time and you wont look back look in parts for sale on here. someones selling the majority of a high end kit for £1600 proper gear too. fuel pump,mapping,injectors and intake fanni mold are your big bits left to get but all that will see you over 400hp
  10. lcp4 mulbery highline . allways wanted this colour. now i do. 440 bhp vr6 turbo.
  11. just sold my dragon green vr, but to a friend on the dub scene,so not all bad. new vr turbo to play with now
  12. hi all, im back on the road with my vr6 turbo. after breaking two gearboxes, now i have a super strong strenghtened and shotpeaned o2a box (thanks to sparks) , and the poor old turbo gave up the ghost too. so taking advantage of the very weak dollar i got a brand new garrett gt3076r sent over, the original housing was .63 the new one is 106, so 43mm bigger, all the boost comes in very late due to this bigger housing taking so long to spool up, plus points are it is now a very user friendly drive,very graduall untill your going too fast allready then whack, it just takes off like a jet.
  13. hey kie dub, just did my turbo bits with wrap,if you want all the bits and down pipe and manifold you will need 2 x 15 mtrs. and dont worry when it smokes for a while . it burns off in 30 mins or so, but still worries you that the pretty wrap you put on with so much effort starts to smoke and change colour, its ok. just thought i would save you the heart attack when it happens. ps my turbo is on the road again. 2 g/boxes and second turbo but im back.
  14. what about sunny southend, the seafront west can take 1000,s of cars. we need a show of strength with all the japs about on a saturday night. thoughts anyone ?
