Bob that looks the nuts mate! Correct me if I'm wrong but you picked that up from the Zed Shed after lunch today and managed to paint,fit and then post pics by 8.30 pm!! Legend!

Sorry to hear your thinking about moving on Sam. The sound of the Maserati is second to none at that price. What about we go halves on a Gallardo? Lol

Found the Hawk pads to be the best I tried with my Brembos Graham. Worked really well from cold so in the real world where you don't get a couple of warm up laps to put heat into the pads they are very good.

The 1940s opaque background in blue is the clue to the next mod!?....

I owned a white 4.2 fixed head for a while in the 90s(should have kept it) lol! Project 7 is the one that might give me a bashing!!

Sorry for multi posts!

Dissapointing weekend at Gurston dueto the bloody weather! Sat practice was a mixed bag of wet and dry runs so no chance to dial the car in. Sun race day practice run was wet from the previous nights rain so no fast times yet! First timed run on a damp track in 38 secs was better than expected as i wasnt pushing too hard. Second timed run was ten minutes away,track is now dry,car running really well in the cooler air and im thinking "go for it Jamesey this is your chance to break the 36 mark for the first time" It pis..sed it down as our batch lined up in the paddock and didnt stop all afternoon! I slithered/drifted my way up the hill with windsceen wipers on flat out,got two wheels on the grass ,pulled up in the top paddock glad to be alive! In the half hour or so i took to pack up the car the tow truck went up the hill to drag 4 poor souls cars back down with various bits missing or bent! Bank Holiday weather at its best! Brighton Speed Trials next Sat 5th Sept which is a fantastic spectator event with allsorts of cars blasting the1/4 mile along the promanade. Interesing selection of cars in my class!

Glad you've got the clutch sorted Steve. Bit worried about the dexter photo,hope he didnt launch under the car and fight Bob for the last doughnut!....

Looking good Bob!

Nice motor and a bargain for some lucky chap as some of us know what kind of investment has been put into your car! Cool brakes chap,pleased with mine!

Yer and you are due down soon Please leave suzi and Steve alone Sorry buddy We were a bit short on reinforcement in the largest cantilever pad foundation so Chis suggested we pushed Suzi in to save time!!! Lol

Arrived at work today and saw this beast in the driveway! "A Team van on speed", fab!! Didn't realise you could buy something like this from a dealer! Too frightened to bring my little Bipper tomorrow as this thing might eat it!!..

Bought a new E46 M3 drop top with Ac schnitzer zorst back in 03,now own a zed which again I've had from new. Still miss that M car now as it was one of the best cars I've owned. Putting to one side the technological advances made with cars since then this is my comparison( coupe) not conv. 1. Performance wise a standard Z wont keep up on track due to the power disadvantage but balance and drivability on the throttle they are on a par. 2.yes the standard brakes on the m3 are shocking! 3. Exhaust note of that strait 6 at 8000 rpm rasping away is intoxicating! 4. Interior/seating of the BM was second to none.but in the Z you feel your in a drivers car. 5. Looks are subject to taste as each car is classed as a coupe and they are both so different,( saloon based verses ,two seater) 6.If I was in the market with 6k to spend on either it's a tough call if you have no desire to modify. 7. Gonna keep my old Datsun till they put me in a box...

Welcome along to the forum chap! My other half comes from Fife, I'm sure you've heard of the Maclean family lol! She went to Saint Columbus school.

Welcome along mate!

My car made the same noise the day I picked her up from new! Nothing to worry about. Would like a pint of what Ollys drinking! Lol

Big cardboard box arrived today,not opened it yet! Will post pics when I've painted and fitted.

Fastest thing round there will be a Tesla! Lol

Welcome along mate from a fellow Zedder in Christchurch!

Looking good mate! Been looking for a not too Gay wing for a while and this looks sweet! No longer on the fence! Lol

Like the evil new nostrils Bob. Velociraptor springs to mind!

And there was me thinking a bit of fencing in the Back garden might keep you occupied while we were held up on the Zed Shed! ..............

Hope this is the last hoop you guys have jump through to get the show back on the road. Zorro and Indie are poised and ready for the re start.

Will be along on the Tarmac stand and have 3 track time sessions booked so looking forward to hustling round a circuit new to me. Got a spare seat as Buster is busy this weekend! Joking apart if anyone wants to ride shotgun they are more than welcome.
