Collected Deb's 1300 from its MOT. Which it passed, so I don't have a huge list of stuff to do at the weekend.

Ordered 2 x 360mm phaeton front discs with pads and two oe fag front omega wheel bearings, from Allgerman parts. Good old Jason he's quick fire on them phones isn't he :o

All at a good price delivered, with oof discount too. :y

Should go with the Mahooooosive Brembo 6 pot front calipers with braided lines that hopefully will end up on the mv8. MWAAAAAAHAHAAAAAA ;D

Most people make it go before they worry about the stopping part ;D

Should be the blocks when it's done 8)

Put some Aquapanel in it, just to keep that DTM fella quiet :P ;D

Had a new alternator fitted today at a cost of £250, after breaking down on the A30 in Cornwall  ::)
Also realised I've still got a Monaro to deliver to someone next week, slipped my mind  :-[

"Stopping" is going on mine first, possibly with some very spangly "suspending". In preperation for the arrival of the "going".

Stopping is relatively cheap and easy to fit. As is suspending.

Going, however, is being a bit fiddly, and at this rate wont be going this year. :(


...I am also aware I'm quite good at the "buying" and bad at the doing. :-[ .... realisticly only get 3 days a fortnight to remember what I was doing the fortnight before. ;D

Topped up the oil after the warning flashed up. Exactly half a litre.

( terribly sorry old boy, I am a little tired ) I really should change oil and filter soon ::) (sigh....)


Yeeeahs I know, boring as f*** but its the best I can do. :P

That reminds me, especially as I have, unusually, all 3 cars here at the moment. None abandoned anywhere in town

Found out that the VX dealer would have done a burnout in it if I had left it there rather than wait  :o
