    Not sure on the 2-lap at the moment, my mates brother should be there with an RA40 though. I was just looking at my calendar and there's a twilight hillclimb at my local track the day before.

    Did the dickhead who bought your Datsun stop harassing you?

    They fit surprisingly well. Good stuff. Suit the Micra better than the RX7.

    w00t now have 15" wheels thanks to Toddski, also picking up some 13" hotwire-ish alloys hopefully thisafternoon. Am considering some 175/60R13 Advan A050s...

    In other news, I have found a joint in the UK selling LSDs and 5.1 final drives as well as dog gearsets, proflex coilovers, AP brakes etc etc This could end up worse than the datsun lol

    It would have been cheaper to keep the Datto!

    Supersprint yesterday at Wakefield, couldn't be fucked changing wheels when I got there so did the first session on 155 street tyres, did a 1:25 but felt pretty good considering the lack of tyre.

    Then put Toddski's old 15s with dunlops on, front guards chopped the tyres a fair bit but grip was awesome, only had to use brakes 3 times on each lap. Ended the day with a 1:20 which is what I wanted to do.

    A fun evening with a heat gun and a scraper - I so enjoy that task...

    Well done to you both - respectable times!

    I'm telling you - it was the amp! Pull it out for another second off your lap time.

    Shame I didn't get to watch you go around - how'd the car feel around the track?

    From memory I did a 54.28 for the first lap and a combined time of 94.9, some 7 seconds off the pace for the class...

    Forgot to ask, did you end up sorting out a panhard rod?

    Car looked better out there than last time. Did you chat to the other Micra driver at all? see if he had any secrets?

    yep got whiteline panhard rod and some old stock rose jointed adjustable swaybar links off a guy on the micra forum.

    Yeah the other micra driver is a mate of mine, I think the secret is to drive faster
