Thanks Liam, that's a useful post! Good idea on going to the manufacturer, I might try that myself, you got a good deal!

Thanks mate, I presume it the unstripped non weld?

Took a trip to GSM in Nottingham on Monday to try out some seats and see what fits, such a great facility to try all the different makes out and see what's comfortable.. I'm 6ft2,140 kgs and long in the back so choices were always going to be limited. In the end I narrowed it down to a recaro...

Hi mate, sorry to bring up an old post but what option is this? I presume its the stripped interior version?

Our plans are so similar! Car is looking great.. how often is there a sprint in Curborough? I'm only 20 mins from there.. looking forward to hearing more on the yellowspeeds, they are part of my winter plans

Thanks very much, its appreciated! wow 290 is cheap! must keep an eye on the sales.. A bucket seat is first though, cant be falling out of the seat in the corners but sounding good on the straights lol

Oh happy days, Bedford is one of the strictest.. Thanks for the explanation on the exhaust layout, really helps, looks like I've just missed a sale on the oreca website.. just to make sure it is this system... Haha I do like a few pops when pushing it on!!! I plan on the v6 airbox too, would...

Your car looks mint! The exhaust does look a little low but more that manageable.. Yeah I heard it weighs nothing, being a single exit will make a big difference. Have you had any issues with noise on track days? Sorry for all the questions, is the cat built into the standard manifold or is...

Thanks Lewis, How low does it hang? I will be mainly tracking it so more worried about kerbs that anything.. I will probably keep the standard Manifold so will hopefully sound good The light weight is a great bonus, helps offset my love of food

Thanks for the info guys, might guy with a standard mani then, I am considering the oreca system from the mani back, anyone on here have that setup?

Just read this from the start. Cracking thread and such a lovely car

Did you change Manifold or modify the standard one? My flexis don't look in the best condition but no blowing yet.

Yeah I have one in my nova rally car, awesome around corners!

An LSD is definitely on the list, will probably wait until the synchros need doing again though lol

Thanks all, I have to say it's a long time since I loved driving a car as much! Would love a little more power but is seems expensive to get any real gains.. How much difference does a remap make, I know I'm not going to see much of peak power increase but is there much a difference in feel?

Hi all, Said I'd introduce myself and my 197. Picked it up back in June, 80k service history and more importantly recent belts and 3rd/4th overhaul @beaniesport with receipts It was standard apart from a set of grams springs and 20mm spacers. I then picked up a set of team dynamic rims and...

Looking forward to the update and pics

sweet that will be mega, its a conversion i've thought about for a while. Best of luck and i will be following with interest

Hi Mate, just stumbled across this, really interested to see what it turns out like! are you keeping the standard clocks etc?

Thanks for the reply, unfortunately not, when I rang back this afternoon the lady told she had just taken a deposit. I will find one soon but I'm in no rush, I live in Birmingham but I'm in Scotland for the next 6 weeks with work so there's no rush. i will keep my eyes open though, this forum...
