Well I'm doing a bit on it this weekend, but its unlikely I'll finish much before Christmas as its not just the gearbox
(gearbox change/upgrade, new fabricated differential mountings, new larger front brake setup and maybe some more welding).

However I would like to know what my E24 is making so would dyno that. Or maybe bring along my dad's E-type as its recently had an engine rebuild/upgrade and is now rather rapid.

Just let me know dates and prices and I'll be there with a surprise car :roll:

Try looking at a Saturday at Northampton Motorsport. Did a dyno day there many years ago when i was rolling around in a 1.8 Opel Manta 8O

I'd be up for a few pulls to see what my car's making.

I'd be interested, my 325i is stock but would like to know what sort of power it's at currently. Weekends are good. I've inquired once in the past down at fritsbitz I think they said around £35ish pound does that sound about right?

Sounds good, where's it located? I would reckon a weekend would be best for people wanting to come along, or perhaps a "Zoner day out" sort of thing. Would be a good day out I'm sure :).
