No mate, picking my Bravo Bravo Sierra's up  :smiley:

I'm sure Alex will eventually talk me into DPF delete and Milltek but I've said not just yet  :ashamed:

The Trinny's look awesome infront of the Brembos  :love:

Wouldn't of gone to that much hassle to paint the bolts personally  :grin: But they look good!  :laugh:

He, cheers Pete

It's cause the car isnt garaged.  If if sits in the rain the studs slowly go orange.  I just scrub them and give a light coat of copper slip  but they where driving me mad, looked discusting.  Hopefully this looks better for longer till I can afford some nice longer nuts.



You did well mate. Better than being rusty and orange.

You started off fast in the first session then appeared to be going slower, i thought you had had a scare round the back of the circuit.  :innocent:

Today I fitted this;

Clicky here


Another mini update;

I retro fitted large display clocks.  With some help from EddieNl.  They worked perfectly.  I then fitted new MFSW buttons as mine where faulty.  After fitting the new buttons, I cant access the MFD menus at all  :fighting: :fighting:  Tried allsorts.

Unplugged the buttons again and also tried the faulty buttons but cant get my menus back  :sick:  Which delays getting Polar advanced :-(

I doubt he would get any gains from it tbh so cost wise it makes no sense to splash out and get nothing from it.  Its already rapido anyway  :driver:

Would make sense on a long term maintenance basis though as Alex maintains his car

With all the special items fitted i would believe that REVO SW would be able to get a bit more out of the items as the APR is non adjustable, just my 2 pence  :happy2:

Over the top mod list ;o)
