Was great catch up again.

Sorry i didnt come in for a beer but my son got bored sat in the car as it was bloody cold!

Bob i swear the whole of the underside of your car is now touching the ground!

I'm up for that if i'm not on shift! Plenty of carpark/dogging sites in The Forest too (apparently).

 

Could be tempted then

 

 

Lowering the tone again!

 

It's a 240 mile round trip, much as I love you guys there would have to be some fringe benefits

 

In all seriousness, I have missed loads of meets lately for one reason or another so if I'm free I will be there

Not met many of you guys yet and BBK didnt scare me too much!!

Where are you trying to order from? I know that Toyo have reduced their suppliers, plus it's the start of the racing season and so racers get priority (although I doubt there's too many running that size).

Looks like Demon Tweeks are my only option at the moment,but they are bloody expensive!

Welcome along

Gold Dust???

245/40/18.

Everyone says they are on back order!

I would say that this is the wrong time of year to run out of track day tyres mr toyo!!!!

Look nice!!

hey andy love the car im the guy you were speaking to at gurston down on sunday, abosulty awsome machine man total sleeper and the jet noise it makes just makes me wana charge my car so much. just a quick question are you still running the standard suspension on the z and what splitter is that you have? its look awsome..

Alex

Saw 3 forum menbers last sunday!

The splitter is a stillen one.

Still on standard shocks at the moment but intend to fit BC coilovers in the future.

The car is going to Abbey next week to fit the smaller pulley on the supercharger which hopefully will give a good gain.

Next up will be the Syvecs s8 which Mark is working on right now,and that is probably as far as i can go with the car on stock internals.

Nice!!

If Tamara was looking to buy me a birthday gift!!!!!!!!!!!

I use 888s and they are awesome!

 

Massive improvement in grip compared to the other tyres I have tried and you can stop quicker on them, they do wear fast I now have 2 sets of alloys one for track one for road.

 

They are however not so good in the wet especially when they are past half worn.

 

If you can afford a set try them I don't think you will be sorry.

Do you think the bigger sizes would be ok?

I know there has been a lot of chat regarding these tyres.

I am currently running Yokohama AD08s which are probably one of the best all round tyres, but the lack of grip on track days and

Sprints is letting me down and i am losing so much time due to a lack of traction.

Also sizes are not quite exactly as standard (225/40/18 front 245/40/18 rear) or (235/40/18 front 255/35/18 rear)

I dont do many miles so wear is not an issue.

Feedback from anyone who has any experience with these on a zed would be appreciated.

Andy

Welcome along!

Welcome along!

Went there the first year it was done. Awesome event and location. All in aid of a good charity too. However I believe that Whacky Will is on a temporary hiatus from the forum.

Looked like a good chance for a few on the south coast to catch up.

See you at Japfest!!

Its run by a mate of mine Jay Broom,

 

said if the club wanted a display area to let him know.

 

We were working at Chelsea Auto Legends last year it was a brilliant event as well.

I know its a long shot but summer could kick in by then!!

Great venue

I bet your well pleased!!

Have fun!!!

Welcome along Chris

Take a look at the Abbey Dyno Day last year.

Most standard early Zeds were putting out around 250 at the wheels.

Well done guys!!

You make "Ground Force" look like a bunch of slackers!!!

Look at Z store in the US.

Pricey but good quality.

Have fun boys!!

If you get low on doughnuts let me know.

Have fun boys!!

If you get low on doughnuts let me know.

Have fun boys!!

If you get low on doughnuts let me know.

I will be coming along with my long suffering son who i keep telling its good practice

to take many pictures of Z cars to enhance his college photography course!!!

So sad too young.

Never had the pleasure to meet him.
