I was pleasantly surprised, yes. And the noise! The garage where I bought it reckoned they were stock pipes. I think not - it has heads turned 50 yards in front as I burble down Ely high street.

Need to get the rear shocks sorted, but apart from that, it's a good 'un. ANd he gave me 2.5K more trade in for my last M3 than I paid for it... :lol: :lol:

I will just as soon as I replace my camera (nicked last weekend).

More details:

1997 4.2litre AJP Speed 8 engine, remapped, uprated ECU and exhaust, with, we suspect around 380bhp. Rather super AP Racing brakes with Cast Iron discs at the front and regular drilled ones at the back.

AVO Suspension that is about to be replaced by GAZ coilovers with custom spring rates and adjustable comp/rebound damping.

O-60 in about 4 seconds dead, and 0-100 in around 9.5, maybe a bit quicker. Standing quarter would be around 12.5 for a stock one, so maybe a couple of tenths quicker, but you'd have to get a great start.

But, and this is the good bit - it only weighs 1100 kgs, not the 1670kgs those lardy Skyline things do.

Nice.
