As you know Trev, white is so last year. Black is the new white for 2010.
Totally agree it's the only way forward:iagree:. Bring on the stealth mode:D

That Sierra is looking pretty damn good! The front end looks great and the new wheels certainly complement things.

Typical that I've changed the V5 for Betty to say 'white'!

We'll see what happens. Just seen the price of 888s :eek:

Shame 1Bs are allowed this year coz' I'll probably be on 1As.

So come on Logan, get some of those wheels & tyres in 'For Sale'
What Turbo is it running Gerry?
What suspension has it got?

I would if I were you get booked in somewhere to get all the ATC bled unless you have paperwork to say it's all been done recently.

They are going to do a Group Buy on the MLR soon for 888's!

I may have a set of Evo 9 rims that you could purchase? No decent tyres tho.

Looking forward to getting it on a track Dan. No 1/4 miles though, not before the clutch switch is replaced :D

Look better in black Stu. Is this turning into a 'best colour' thread? Thought they were banned.

I know very little about it Logan. It has a turbo but not a clue what it is but it looks quite small.

I will probably speak to Gary quite soon to get the thing checked over and make sure it's running safe. There are no guages or any monitoring atm. Not goood for a modded motor.

I know sweet FA about Evos and even less about what's interchangeable between models. I need to pick your brains and sign up to MLR for starters. If the 9 wheels will fit, how cheap are they :D

Sounds like a good plan Gerry, best to make sure it's all working fine before driving the nuts off it!

Think the Evo 9 wheels should fit, see 4's with Evo 8 wheels on before and they are the same offset and width.

So, after all the abuse over the last 2 years you like the AYC?? Do you feel it's a bit weird to start with?? I had a play on a deserted roundabout when i first got mine and kept getting quicker and quicker and was waiting for understerr but then the AYC kicked in and kinda tilted the rear up a bit to make the front point inwards to stop the understeer, was well weird....now I just don't notice it!!

That's what I'm hoping too :D

Can't say I've noticed it doing anything, the car just corners on rails with no sign of understeer. Yet!
