But you`ll be at work today :smilecouncil: I told Kent you`d be eating baked beans on toast untill xmas after you pay his bill.

I`m hoping my brake parts and step son arrive today, the rear rotors, RB24 pads will be fitted to the rear and the 4 braided lines lovingly hand made by Howard will be fitted to all four corners and finished off with a thorough fluid flush and bleed.

Ribs are still amazingly tender so I need Tyson to do the heavy stuff. After sitting here all week with an internet connection and a Visa Debit I need to be back at work next week so I don`t wanna screw up make the tear worse.

Did you get any advice on how to treat the zf for the first 800 - 1000klm? Those first few klm's are crucial in making sure that's all the airs bleed out. I had mine set with as little boost as possible & a smallish limiter to make sure I didnt get too right foot happy. The gear changes will be very harsh during this period but when everything has found its place & the puter has readjusted for the extra packs (I assume they added extra to cope with the extra power???) it becomes as good as new. One flare can scorch a pack & you'll be back at square on. I'm just speaking from the advice I was given & what I did for those first thousand or so klm's. Do as many gear changes as you can. It'll annoy the crap out of ya but it'll pay in the long run.

hey, got the car fixed man its hard to get in there with the 2 fuel pumps right there. and now she is running, nah I didnt get an advice on the zf, it does feel a lil harsh on changes, and I use manual mode heaps, its tuned to 8psi and to 5800rpm, but I generally dont go over 4500/5000rpm. giving the engine a run thru the rev range. I'll post up some pics soon as I work out my new computer

Black rocker cover is that latest fashion accessory. Should have got an Atomic Carbon fibre coil cover. Its the sexiest ever most expensive add on that does bugger all.

I really want one :(
