All right, all right. Have you guys seen my youtube channel?

That was meant as a distraction. I do have some time on my hands in the coming months, and a fresh perspective. I have read numerous books and articles, and been saving hard.

I have ordered an alloy radiator and it should be here this week. That will get the build restarted. From there it will be start-able and I can get it to a dyno to see what power it puts out. Then it will be time to fit the new coils, highflow turbos and so on. I will be talking to Simon at Morpowa about buying and tuning an aftermarket computer, most likely a Haltech.

Bryce from APDA has been in touch and is hooking me up with a set of his Intima Type D pads at cost for the Supra calipers. I'll try them next time out. These are the next step up from the Intima SR6300s I have been using with much success. The question will be: is the higher temp range suitable for time attack? I hope the answer is yes, as they have a bit more bite on offer.

Last but not least, I am getting back to the dreaded fibreglass work. It is time to get started on the mould, and then knock out a front bar or two. Eyeing up the doors I reckon they will be less work than doing a custom front end...I mean the door is there already, I just need to take a mould. How hard can it be...
