Should be smooth fronted by the weekend!  :happy2:

Ran some data logs for the new DriverMotorsport's K04+ tunes in pump and race fuel. I have older versions...so these are just the latest versions of the K04+ line.
It ran solid the first time out with the pump file...we just gotta make sure all is OK before running the race file with 110oct. I won't know any more results until after both files prove OK and I get to the track and/or dyno(rolling road).

Fitted front discs and pads  Went for EBC USR1386 discs and DP1517 pads.  Put new hangers on as I had them painted ready to go. Bloody hanger bolts took some getting off. One ratchet broken as I hit it with a 4lb lump. 4 BBS CH fitted with Rainsport3(lowering springs?) and a wheel alignment next
