  1. I'm up for this lads Don't dingey me though just cause i am in a GTR now..... Fai get your finger out and get the beast ready in time for this, can't wait to see it in the 10's mate.......... Regards ScottyB
  2. Cracking turn out guys, well done, great to see you winning the Best Stand award as well, even if you all skulked off early and weren't there to pick up the trophy................. Popped over a few times Bobby but missed you i spent most of the day hiding from the rain sat in the GTR reading the News of the World and enjoying my flask of tea.............
  3. First car was an XR4x4i in White.............. I passed my test in the Army at Leconsfield when i was 17 and it was my old mans car. Fair play to him he charged me top whack for it and made me pay every bloody penny. I remember my insurance was £2800 third party only and on a squaddies wage that was murder. I never went out much i just paid the car up, paid the insurance monthly and just about had enough dosh left for petrol and beer. I used to look forward to getting sent to s**** holes like Bosnia or Northern Ireland to get extra cash to pay it off...... Regards ScottyB
  4. After an email from IM i am lead to believe that Warranty claims for suspension are no longer being honoured. Worthwhile phoning the likes of Ian Grieves to confirm if this is still the case? It certainly was a few months ago when i was looking to claim for the rears on my RB320
  5. See you there Rossco, I am taking the GT-R up. Going with Ailz and the rest of the crew. Regards ScottyB
  6. I second that Geo knows this stuff inside out! Regards ScottyB
  7. Nice chap, just mis-understood.........
  8. Yes RA Dunk same guy Mr Donaldson St3ph3n - I would love to see a steward take him aside! After you gents i will hold yer coat!!! http://www.sundaymail.co.uk/news/scottish-...78057-21068064/
  9. Certainly Sir, Would you like me to "Rim" it for you as well......... Looking forward to Sunday, a chance to catch up with everyone again and for a great cause!
  10. Totally agree Scott the AP's on my car were the best 2.5k+ i ever spent, Kenny if you keep a look out in the For Sale section at the weekend i will be putting a full set of 6 Pot AP's 355mm front and 330mm rears with Black Calipers which have only done 500 miles all road use. Taking photos when i get home tomorrow night and will pop the advert up ASAP. They will be priced very fairly for a quick sale! Regards ScottyB
  11. Youv'e actually got a pal........ Drop me a P.M. and update me with what's happening with your beast mate...............
  12. Thanks i am unsure what to put them up for sale for 2.5k+ only 500 miles ago?? Yeah EXE-TC's seem the way to go. I have seen first hand loads of issues with failed AST's and am yet to hear a bad word about the EXE-TC's, some amount of settings to play with, gives loads of scope for finding the right balance. Hats off to you for clearly not settling for anything other than the best for your motor, you have obviously researched EVERY part before putting it on.........takes dedication and a deep pocket!!! Fair play. Regards scotty
  13. Just had a good read through your S Net thread, same brakes as mine but i have the black calipers! Great choice i am actually just about to flog mine cleaning them up as we speak and will be photographing them this weekend ready to post. Cracking set up on the car mate! How have you found Exe TC? I called them 6 seperate times when i was looking at a suspension upgrade for the RB and they never once called me back! There loss i suppose. Regards ScottyB
  14. Hi Paul, I called Young Dunc yesterday to let him know the RB320 would not be there so he is in the loop. Hopefully we will still have enough cars, i am getting a lift up and will be there to give a dig out being the tea biatch or whatever is needed. Anyone contacted Maxxed Ross, was he not interested at putting his RB320 on? Regards ScottyB
  15. Hi Skull Sounds awesome, are you still running standard brakes? What about chassis tweaks to help get the power down better and improve handling and control? You may have done all of this and apologies if you have. With that sort of power a fully supportive package is a must, rather than just the power increase. By the sounds of it you have a beast and a half on your hands there mate, fair play, imagine it in the WET.....
  16. Just spoke to John McCallum - Duncan helped him out no end when he had problems with his Litchfield Type 25. He has agreed to bring along his new R35 GT-R for the event and put it on the dyno. Please add his name to the list lads. Only 1 thing may prevent the run so please be aware. The car has not been run in yet and he needs to keep below 3k RPM no use for the dyno, he is currently at 850 miles and will hopefully have it past the 1200 miles needed and the first service done by the 14th. Will keep you posted when he has it all done. If needed i can always put the RB320 on to make the numbers up as well, totally standard though and being ex Forces quite happy to do a run just for the sake of it and to give some dosh to Charity. Regards Scott
  17. Robert, Put me down to help. Away just now and not certain of my movements from one day to the next but if i am unable to make it i will let you know so put me down as a possible for now and i will keep you posted. Regards ScottyB
  18. Scott totally agree with you mate! I saw your car the day it came from AVA and the big power hike was still a closely guarded secret, will be chuffed for you when it is back on the road mate. If it was not for Duncan both myself and my mate John's cars would have taken much longer to diagnose. As an example of how committed he is, i can't think of many garages that stay on until midnight on a Friday to get customers cars out of the doors fo a Saturday morning as promised. He also ran about like a mad man writing a failure report for my mate the very day he was due to go of on his holidays when he should have been winding down and relaxing (He doesn't know the meaning of the words!!!) That and Alex makes a braw cup of tea and the wee man knicks all of his banana milkshake every time we are up there and he doesn't bat an eyelid..... Hopefully he will also get a good turn out for the Horsepower for hero's event he is running all free with every penny going to the Jock regiments...........Hats off to the man!!!! I wouldn't care if i lived hundreds of miles away i would travel to let him work on my car!
  19. Speak to Gav aka Scoobyseller555 he will sort you out. Grieves in Falkirk where he works did my RB320 and it is a cracking job. Regards Scotty
  20. I would happily travel 200 miles never mind 20 to let Duncan work on my car. Enough said, he is a busy man. Can often be found working until daft o'clock to get cars out the door for customers. You will struggle to find anyone better. Will bend over backwards to help and you can always nick all of his Banana milkshake out of the fridge..........
  21. Yip another thumbs up from me, looks very nice!!
  22. Hoss, I have a spare RB320 alloy in my garage, just happens to be front left as well if you need it following your wee brush with a big feck off lorry....... Small ding in it which would be easily sorted If it is any use to you let me know? Not after any cash just make a wee donation of a couple of quid to a charity or something mate. Regards ScottyB
  23. Same recommendation as Gav in fact it was him who told me about them...... Details http://www.bitsuk.co.uk/falkirk.htm Regards ScottyB
  24. Yip and you have a few witnesses..........
  25. Just 1 or 2 then................ Best couple of hundred quid i ever spent - Road Angel Proffesional Connected. http://www.road-angel-gps.co.uk/road-angel...m?ref=googleads When you pass a van location which are all stored you just press the "Live" button on the remote so that all other drivers/users on the same contract know that the location is live instantly. You get 2 warnings a standard van location warning and also a live unit warning. The unit updates itself every 30 seconds to ensure you have the most up to date info. It has not failed to pre-warn me of a van location yet! It even updates to delete cameras that are now removed all without having to plug it into the PC which to be honest is a pain in the ar5e and the main reason people get stung because they forget to update their units! Users on the contract can add in new locations for vans/cameras by using the remote and it updates to the database, they verify it then it goes live. You can also fit a "garage door opener" for laser units. I know the North East is trying really hard to reduce the amount of fatalities from both car and bikes looks like they are kicking their campaign off in anger this weekend? Regards ScottyB
