As stock, the ECU will allow some gains until the fuel trim gets out of the preset limit (ie you will get more power until it runs as lean as it wants to). Then on it dials out gains. You can now (well new to the UK) have the OEM ECU reflashed and tuned to make best use of the mods. This will net you maybe 20BHP, but gives a much nicer torque curve
I only do a little stint on the M40, but Cherwell is right on the route
Cherwell services prior meet + greet
R800NER (Booner or Richard) - Kuro black
Chris`I (Chris +1 Ben) - GM
I'm up for stopping at Cherwell. Dont know what time yet, its dependant on how early Rob wants to get there as he was there before the rest of us last year I think, having to get there and set up.
Is Rob coming up on the Tuesday too does anyone know? I'll probably PM him, but I think sharing with him and Becca is the best option for me and Amanda given the extended stay.
Glad to see Rota are consistent
I suggest you go with JV-Z as at least you know he has the actual wheels on a Zed with Brembos so you know they fit I run Rota GTR in a 8.5F/9R and find it handles well.
Lets do names and nights, might make things easier.
Probably travel up on the Friday , staying for a couple of nights.
1 ) John & Patricia (Fri, Sat)
2 ) Chris & Amanda (Wed, Thurs, Fri, Sat, Sun)
Think thats right!
Cherwell Valley Moto Services (M40 Jct10) would be better for some of us sotherners. I'm taking the A34 which goes the other side of Oxford to the M40. Cherwell is where you turn off the M40 to head up the A43 towards Silverstone. This to me is the best meeting place
If looking for correction, I agree, but it just trying to get a good finish after a corection, I find SRP is great for burnishing the paint. It only has a slight cut, but most importantly fillers. On a car like mine with a few swirls left, it leaves a lovely finish with a bit of filling
Very dusty though, but can be aided with a quick spritz of QD
Make no mistake guys, ANPR can read any plate in any format within reason. As long as its using a standard font on the white plate it will be able to read it whereever it is on the front of the car. The OCR systems these things use are no simple, they take an image and get the plates from them, they can find them anywhere in the image (I did image regocnition and OCR at uni). And I see these systems purely as revenue generators as Chris rightly points out. They do not stop terrorists or motorists commiting crimes, except for those completely inept to understand what they do. Cloning plates is a piece of pi$$ in most cases as you can get them off the net. Unless a copper stops you they wont know its not legit unless they lookup the postcode of where it was made. Its all about stinging Joe Bloggs when he makes a simple mistake Although I do appreciate it takes compelete retards who have no insurance or tax etc off the road.
Don't think so Chris, its John Bradshaw's car who currently runs Project GTST up at the pod. This is his latest project.
Maybe give him a nudge in this direction if you speak to him, sure loads of members would like to see it when its up and running
Dealers can possibly bed in proper high performance pads for you. You need a clear road where you can do about 10x 70-10MPH stops and then drive around using the brakes as little as possible for 10mins without stopping on the brakes. Theres no way you can do it during the day. Do it yourself and you know its done properly
If I hadnt seen Martin with his roof down with the Nismo ECU, I have pointed at that!
Does the flashy light give any sort of sequence? I'll go look in the Service Manual and see if it mentions anything.
