I couldn't be arsed to take too many. Kind of got bored taking e30 shots en masse a couple years ago at Satans Poo.

Gordon got feck loads. Give him a chance to seperate the shots for his 'personal collection' from the ones he'll upload and I'm sure they'll be posted. I caught Gordon taking some sneaky candid shots, the deviant.


No shots of any of dem bredren 'diffin'?

32mpg for the whole day including the run on the rollers! :cool:

I bet it did cost more, but it needn't I know you could beat 200bhp all day long with a basic 2.8L build, remember mine was built and paid for by Adam too, I'm only bearing the development cost of my new 2.9L/3.0L M20 which some of the cost will be recouped by selling the old engine, and don't forget its still on the log manifold and fuelling is all over the place. 250bhp N/A is the goal. and I think its achievable. 5 bags deep and nearly ready to assemble.

Anyone got any pics of the convoy? I saw a few people crouching in the middle of the road with a camera before running back to their cars realising everyone on front of them had buggered off.

Like I said in my PM, I will be in touch though I'm unsure wether I will go for a remap on my unichip or go for a new Uni-Q install. Shepsevo thinks he can remap the unichip very well, if I sendhim a copy of the map when you post it he might have a better idea of whathe can do and what my best route is.

I'm not shy of spending money!

Its a bloody weapon now, can't wait until it works properly.

Cheers Dave. So the key to the run is at the bottom of the page, not the reg and name at the top!
