Nice set of vehicles! A good variety, for sure. :) Any drivetrain additions to the Pajero? I'm an offroad guy myself, too. I was thinking about posting a thread similar to yours depicting my slightly modified Jeep, but didn't think it'd be well received here. That Galant is pretty cool, too. I dig t...

I've run the exact Goodyears in staggered sizes as you've referenced, with taller profile up front (245/40/18 ) and shorter out back (285/35/19). As long as you maintain a close-to-stock overall tire diameter ratio front-to-rear, you'll be okay. Regarding the Goodyears themselves, I would vote again...

Thanks, Gareth. Nice FD as well- I have a few mates that are FD enthusiasts, one of which I've been helping with an LS1 swap that is in the car and running now. They're wonderful cars.

On the full 4-500 hit you're planning on running, I think you'll have zero trouble getting into the mid nines - considering that 4 link, 9", and Sportsmans. I have faith that you'll go 9.50 or better on your very first pass on a full shot. Although, I didn't see a wheelie bar.... While I'd love to s...

Thanks, Daniel. I wander between Norwich, Thetford, and Bury often, so if you're in Norfolk, it's quite possible. Nice R32 there, also, Bryan. I've seen the car around- I get a kick out of the screamer pipe exiting from under the door sill. 8)

Oh, and about that user name... :twisted:

I am presuming you reside at the base at Lakenheath.
Thanks, but I can't say that I do. That is indeed a presumption I often hear, though. :nod:

Incredible. Should be an absolutely solid car, for sure. The detail is fantastic too... you don't usually find cars with show to match that much go. Love it! 8)

What are you shooting for, e/t and trap wise? Gotta be aiming for at least mid 8's at over 150 I'd guess.

Was at a ScoobyCity meet in Norwich with my Bugeye WRX awhile back, and there were a few Skylines that happened to be along as well. I believe one wore a BigPower.co.uk decal, if I remember. I eventually asked somebody about the site, and many moons later, here I am.
