It was on the cheap

I've stopped using 300V as well. Every time I put it in one of my cars I seemed to sell it the next week. Happened with

DC2
S2000
Evo
Sti
NSX
DC5

Some of those sales I regret doing so soon after acquiring the car, so I've switched to Castrol

Chris.

Liking this thread.

You've got a good few ponies under the bonnet now, want a pax lap or 2, to see how much difference there is from stock.

I've done the brakes, Dixcels, I did Rockingham a few weeks ago, the international long circuit, which is very heavy on the brakes and they were faultless

Ordered and paid for KW V3's at end of January and they're still not in the country yet think I'm going to cancel them and get Nitrons, recommended to me by Tom at TGM.

Have to say, after owning an early model the later model felt soft and numb on the road, that was the reason why I ordered coilovers, but on track I was very surprised, it come alive and you could take more liberties with it than the older model.

I'd be interested to see you rank that list, in terms of favorites / most cherished. I know the Evo will be near the bottom, hopefully propped up by the STi

Barry, glad the Dixcels went well and it's good to see Mark enjoyed his visit to CG.

Get the brake brace fitted, though Mark, even I managed that without mucking it up and it only took a few minutes!

PS - Chris has a Cusco front upper brace available for £50 if anyone wants it (new) Same as the one I now have.

I need a new one as my old faithful spoon one doesnt quite clear my intercooler piping


Could you post a pick of yours fitted?

cheers

I see Chris & Jayne have finally started renovations on the new office / customer waiting area.

Is that your turbo kit - I see in the background - next to the washer fluid?

Mark, you need to get yourself a good camera ..... and learn how to use it.

This is what bling should look like:
