2tongues OK its back this morning we collected the car after a 1/2 car respray. The original paint had many flaws and colour miss matches we decided a re-spray, also the wheels are now colour coded to the car - looks far better in the flesh you can't see the pearl effect on the photo.....

Racing Dynamics made the wheels, they were diamond finished but the winter salt/snow etc damaged the lacquer so colour coding was the best all round option. If we had another diamond finish the same would probably happen again.

Has it had the headgasket replaced with a rev3 one? You won't be getting near 300bhp without that!

Yea it has a metal one, the 300 is only if funds allow, not that important, she flies with the power she has already!!

£15 MBC, job done :lol: You'd need to be at 1.15BAR for that which will be severely pushing the CT26! Plus you'll need an FCD. That's probably all though.
