  1. only way to be sure is take 1 wheel off, do dummy build inside wheel with brembo disc and caliper and see if caliper touches wheel

    possible do it tomorrow first thing but if wheels dont clear calipers, you got brake fluid, brake lines, caliper bolts, are the bleed nipples free

    its a long walk home,if it does go to plan

  2. before you start

    will your whells fit over the brembos, starndard wrx wheels wont, some after market wheels wont due to off set

    in worst case you could fit new discs and calipers then your wheels wont fit over the new set up

  3. oh BTW

    make sure you dont hit anything

    last year one of the group i was with had a mr2 turbo with 450bhp in it, drove it all the way there, started his first lap of the ring, managed 5 corners and engine bay fire, gutted the rear half of the car, he parked it on the side of the track, they came put out fire, recovered car, cleaned grass, redone grass and charged him a nice 1700 euro's to be payed instantly

    and another person on track clipped the barriers 3 times in a big sideways spin, he got charged 3700 euro's for damage to barriers, grass and kerbing and recovery

    i managed just over 140 mph down the longest straight and will being passed by the big power boys like i was in 2nd gear

  4. no worries davie

    as far as i remember from last year, he bought a 4 lap card, when he came in from 1st lap, they barred him due to the exhaust noise as cards are non refundable, he had to sell his card to someone, but never got all the money back and he was there for weekend, and this was friday evening session

    i am at spa f1 circuit for a trackday the week after you lot go to the ring, then i am off to the ring after that for 4 days, should be intersting, got new spoiler for rear for higher speed stability

    got the camera ready for car, will be fun to go flat out up au rogue in the scooby

  5. We saw no-one being tested for noise level when we were there.

    We had made sure that our scoobs were not too loud. (you don't want to be driving over 1000 miles with too loud and droning exhaust anyway)

    You should be ok providing you take it easy in the parking lot and que and don't rev your engine too much.

    The official limit for the ring is below so if your exhaust is excessive you takes your chances.

    Vehicles which do not comply with the noise threshold values entered in the vehicle registration papers with regard to the noise emissions from stationary and moving vehicles shall be banned from driving on the

    track. Furthermore, the noise threshold value is not allowed to exceed the level in accordance with the near field measurement method (95 dB [A]) and the maximum sound-power level (140 dB [A]) stipulated by

    Nürburgring Automotive GmbH, measured when the vehicle is driving past. Nürburgring Automotive GmbH conducts sound measurement surveys on the course, and reserves the right to exempt vehicles from

    the tourist drives if they exceed the above noise threshold values, even if their noise threshold values do not exceed those stipulated in the vehicle registration papers. Vehicles with defective or illegally altered

    exhaust systems shall also be banned.

    was there last year, roughly same dates in september and there were random noise testing and there must have 6 cars in total barred from entering the ring that weekend

    plus saw spotters at the vantage points taking notes

    take your chances, long drive for nothing if caught
