    Interlec - I was sitting in reception when you called, listening to mine being remapped.

    I can report your car was safely inside, not outside, looking extremely mean with those exhausts, vents, fins, calipers and wheels.

    They've had a bad couple of days, I don't think someone took they day off yesterday, but they had to go to Noble sports cars to sort out a problem as they make the engines for the Noble GTO. And their dyno is playing up.

    When I was there they had a phone call from an unhappy customer who had problems with a flamer kit ( on a Merc A class !?) Things got quite heated, no pun intended, and just as I left two cars pulled up and the customer stormed into the workshop with three beefy mates looking for trouble. Cue quick exit.

    Hope your car is alright.

    HA HA !!! thats Martin, from Custom FX !!! He has A jeep which look's really mean, so why he's putting it on the Merc, I do not know ?? I'll have to wind him up about that one tomorrow !! :-D :-D He's still got my old wheels in his shop. not a sniff of selling them.
    As for my car , when Steve said someone was off, I presumed he meant off work !! not just off the premises !! :$ :$
    your's all sorted now ?? I hope mine will be done for the weekend ???

    All Legnums look mean - yours just looks meaner than most - no its not OTT.

    I think mine is OK now - I'll give it a blast tomorrow. Bit worried because the broken piston was supposed to have been caused by an air leak - but they couldn't find one, and they didn't think it was detonation.

    Running at 1 bar to start with, but they said its getting enough fuel at 1.2 so I'll up it slowly. Hope I don't do it again.

    I couldn't possibly post how many £££££'s, I don't know who might see it, but it was easily enough to make me want to keep the car for a while.

    Oh dear!!!! :wow:

    I quite fancy the idea of picking up a cheap (3-4k) VR4 and building a killer engine (1000BHP) to slot in. I think it would shake up a few Skyline owners, especially if it was a Legnum! Full stripped racer style..................

    Anyone fancy a club project??!

    Yep, I fancy it - what about two, or even three engines? There is enough space in the Legnum, and with the privacy glass no-one would know.
