Lauren

Let us know how you get on. I've never really been convinced by changing brake lines to braided lines, but I guess you'll need to feel a difference for the review! Yes, the blasted Primacy tyres do last a long time. Used to get 14K out of a set of rears. Half that now with the Yokos.

Already got the stainless exhaust. You can keep your Mikunis, who wants obsolete technology?

I'm still up for this. Who else is? 1. Lauren 2. Mark (AE86- possibly) 3. Neal 4. 5. 6. 7.

Yep, it's no different, but no surprise there.

Welcome aboard, LFA's old car. I saw it out at the track a couple of times when Ed had it. For checking the oil pressure, think you have to check it after running and let it sit for five minutes.

I think the trouble you'll have running in a completely stock class is the relative lack of grip with the Primacy tyres. But, maybe give it a go, see if it's competitive.

It's a mistake that seems to proliferate in many for sale ads for some reason. But yes, well spotted, stock 17x7's on that. As are all Giallos.

Welcome aboard. Will's cunning plan sounds like what you need. Only you can decide of course. Do your research, speak to as many people as possible. Usually the best way.

Good stuff, Bob. Mine has done three years worth of the Toyota Sprint Series, been round Alps both clockwise and anti-clockwise and also been out to the old 'east' of Germany! 90K miles and it's been utterly reliable. I'm guessing given you will be competing in it, a few upgrades will be happening?

I'll have a look at coming to that, bit of a trek for me at 50 miles away though. Would be nice to see the RA28. Maybe I should try and come in the AE86?

I may well pop along to this on Sunday. I've been before it's an alright little meet to go to. Details here: https://www.facebook.com/events/1658247834424947/ Botany Brow PR6 9AF Chorley. Meet is normally 1pm till around 4pm. There's food and drink available there. Let me know if you're interested.

Well, the weather is brightening up, the rain has stopped. See you all there later.

Pretty much everyone swops out the stock exhaust. If you want it to sound nice, swop out the exhaust and add an induction kit. Makes it sound pretty good at 7K revs. Though it still doesn't come close to my AE86 for induction noise.

Easy. Red and white.

I tell you what, Kev, there can be no lengths too far to go to, to get away from the ginger. Well done!

The deal with the two clubs is simple. Four of us approached the other forum and suggested that they turn it into a not for profit club so we could fund events for the members. This was declined as the other site makes money from advertising with the then owner not having any particular interest in the cars and running numerous forums, solely for that reason. So we decided to setup a not for profit club so we could support events through revenue generated by traders and membership. The other forum banned the four directors of this club when we registered the company. This is why we have far more events because we are able to use the club to pay and book events etc. None of us have any issue with the OC, rather their issue is with us. As for the Giallo, it's a limited run of 86 cars, so they don't come up that often, but more will do so as the car ages of course. It does seem a high price mind. But if you love the yellow, then it could be for you.

Cars will always be noisier, on drive-by. Induction noise, wheels etc. A static noise test just measures the exhaust.

Nice, welcome aboard. Any plans for the car?

I've had Stoptech pads on the for the last year. I compete in the sprint series and do the odd track day. They've actually been pretty good. Of course it depends how you drive on track. If you just slam on the brakes on the approach to every corner, then not much will cope. But if you have a degree of progression to your braking and are sympathetic, I find them absolutely fine on track. I'll tend not to do more than five laps or so at a time, just for the sake of not murdering the car and oil temp and all that, but they work well enough and there is no squeal at all. Given their price, it's a win-win situation.

Look at your manual, details are in there. But 4th year or 40K is the same as 2nd year/20K.

Just checked, all these leather seat options are fitted at the port of entry (Portbury docks), there is no such thing as a 'factory fit' option, hope that clears it up.

I'm sorry for being a 'know it all'. Google is quite good if you're not sure how to spell a word, I find.

I had a pro-install with a slightly different set of Focals, but my understanding is the plug and pray ones are not hard to fit and use existing mounting points and wiring, so it's just matter of removing the old ones and plugging the new ones in. Rob fitted a set for another member. Have fun in your car when you pick it up. You'll certainly enjoy those back roads.

Great pics as always, Will. Cheers.

Pics and price please Mark. This isn't ebay you know.
