Trademe rules require you to have possession of the goods for sale. Ads wouldn't do much to engender confidence. Good to hear it's a legit company although I don't see much demand coming from NZ.

Ha ha. That's what mates do.... Tell each other their performance discoveries. We are terrible at keeping these secret :-)

Not sure if I'll have Lola back for the weekend, what with Macca pulling rank on the boys time and you in there ahead of me with two cars taking up space. Macca I dropped my spare SRF off to Dean early this morning and your car was the only one in the workshop.... You must have done something right as it was being worked on first as far as i could tell.... Nearly took a shot to send to you.

By the way, I'm getting my brakes bled to flush the fluid in and near the callipers.

This will probably use up much of my spare SRF so if you guys want some spare on the SITT maybe you need to by a 1l bottle between you? If I end up with none left I'll go in for a share too. I have two original 1l SRF bottles (1 empty 1 being used) so we can share it around. (Sounds like we're sharing drugs ha ha)

Doug. Good to hear. Squatters rights (actually I think I own a few square meters of that workshop already LOL). I had rear pads flown up from Nelson yesterday and some fronts shipped from US and delivered to Dean today. These were fitted today and the car will be out of everyone's hair for a few days while it has Geo and the air con compressor looked at - then it goes back to storage. Just want to point out (incase it seems on here like Im being rude) that I had this space booked in over a month ago. I hate the car sitting around there for months on end like it often does so told them I wanted it in there no longer than a week. They started Wednesday with the wheels, a service and oil change and during the SITT inspection we made the call on the pads (Thursday) so it has been longer in the shop than I anticipated unfortunately but now there part is done. I trust it wont slow down your work too much. Sorry about that.

Yes keen to go 1/2, or 3rds or whatever on a bottle of SFR from SITT. Id imagine we are all using it these days.

Herman will be dropped in there tomorrow with his springs. The Turbo 3.6 is going home to the naughty corner.

Re performance secrets. I expect we'll see some sandbagging. There's more than one Steve Wong chip out there and track tyres are more prevalent than I expected as well. I'm taking the Z221s; two in the car and two being sent to QT by Mainfreight. Bring it on.

I don't think it was ever there. Certainly wasn't present at Pukekohe.

I love you too Macca - I will love you more when I can get a few bits that I am after off you. I would be nice to have them in for the SITT........

I'm glad your 993 is going down - will give me a chance to quiz you more on what you have done, I need to 'mini- mac' my car.......

Just paid the custom's clearance fee.

Looks like it will have to be after next Wed. Will be interesting to see what difference to times suspension makes?

The before and after on the C3 was 3 seconds.

I recon the 993 is only good for 1.22's at the moment.
