Meetings, gatherings, parties etc / Re: 2018 ABS monthley cafe meets

« on: 16 January 2018, 21:48:56 »

After the meet,Rob and myself gave the V8 and my 3.2 a bit of a workout going back down the A12,that V8 doesn't mess about......totally out accelerates the 3.2 even on a side by side 50 mph+ rolling start.Going to have to get it up to a Thunder road meet and put it up against the boy racers...and maybe my VXR8 which is now running 640 bhp.

Omega General Help / Re: Where have all the 3.2’s gone?

« on: 09 January 2018, 18:22:55 »

I still have two 3.2's and a 3.0 and I'm not planning to get rid any time soon,as I still enjoy driving them and never really think about their value...if any.Although having said that,I think I wouldn't mind getting a clone of Robsey's Supercharged V8 Omega estate...absolutely mental

Omega General Help / Re: So I took the cill covers off the 3.2.....

Correct Dr G.....BUT! my head has been turned towards the Holden Senator, of which I spied the two that Elite Motors have in stock at their Christmas meet today. Rob's supercharged 5.7 MV6 estate  created a lot of interest amongst all the Monaros and VXR8's.....this one's going to kick some serious arse

I took my Elite to Speedweld at Farley Hill, Berkshire,he's not cheap,but he's a fabricator and does ground up restoration work,he likes all the lower interior fittings removed including all carpets.He did a really thorough job including removing the seats....as I say total cost £1500,so not cheap, the other 3.2 is booked in for the new year with only a minor repair to do,looks like I'm keeping them

 0-60 is supposed to be around 4.5 secs,but I don't abuse the car as it will tear the tyres up, and tyres are well over £100+ a pop and also I'm still throwing money at the three Omegas as well,so I just drive the car steady without drawing attention to myself....if that's possible in a car that's bright Lime green.

Ooops sorry about the previous post....pilot error. I was just about to say that my VXR8 has just had a little tune up,and it's now running a little north of 640 BHP safely.don't think I'll be buying the Mustang anytime soon.

Omega General Help / Re: Jim Bean wheel alignment equipment...any good for an Omega.

All mine have been done over the last couple of years and were well greased at the time and, iirc I still have a dozen or so brand new bushed half sections somewhere in one of the sheds,so should be OK on that score.
