I'd say it makes sense for when my car is here as I will have temporary license so I will be able to drive it.

But get it organised, really amped. I'll probably bring your CAS at the same time.

Thanks okes.

Yeah it was the cars first trip to killarney. Saturday was a very interesting day of racing.

Wynand came 3rd again in the second race didn't he? I saw how he battled to keep traction between 3 and 4.

Shot for helping me out with that tool, great thing about the sx guys is they always very helpful, proud to report the S14 is back on the road, new studs and all lol... I reckon you guys should get quite a bit of business and best of luck! (Hopefully I get a good price when i bring my 14 in for its intercooler lol)

Car is looking good also, loving how low it is!

You are more than welcome bud, bring the 14 round, I want to see it.

And if you still want to sell it I may know someone interested.

Yes, the wet race was no fun on slicks. 2nd race was fun, from 8th to 3rd. U should have had a good view of the white BMW losing it in turn 4.

Yeah I saw that, the spur e36.

Update...eventually

So I did the first drift night here in Cape Town and found out very quickly that Killarney race track needs some more power to drift. I was clutch kicking in 3rd to keep the car going coming out of the main corner, and I was running out of revs in 2nd.

So I need power and to replace the clutch I was slowly finishing off:
Lightened flywheel with new ACT clutch plate:

Fitted:

Whilst I was there, short shifter:

And the important bit, boost controller set at 14PSI:

What a difference 2-3 PSI makes

So this Saturday I will be testing it again at Killarney race track.

Some branding for my business and some meet pics:
