    I received a notification on Friday night telling me my car is being built! 
    I'm just a little bit excited.
    In other news, got an email from RRG telling me they will have a demo car in for the beginning of November, so I will be first behind the wheel. I really hope it's as good as it looks!

    Subota Boy reacted to Luke in All about Initial D   
    Huge fan of Initial D and the MF Ghost series and I really like the detail they go into about the cars handling characteristics and driving styles.
    It got me hooked on JDM cars and wanting to improve my driving skills.

    Been to Wales twice and the Lakes once in the last month, desperately needed a wash, in and out.

     
    Still scrubs up ok.

    The guideline is 6 people from 2 families can meet. Then qe need to call Owners Club and Drivers Club as the families to be legally meeting.

    Very sensible. Anything north of 300 is a risk worth avoiding. Cosworth suggest 280 to be safe and has been extensively researched by them.

    Watch this video to know more Martin

    A couple of people have asked me about fitment.  Going from 225/45 on 17" to 235/40 on 18", both ET35, has increased overall diameter from 634mm to 645mm.  The tyre fills the wheel well by 5mm more.  Testing it against GPS yesterday shows that my speedo is now almost spot-on, over-reading by 1mph at 70.  Gearing is very slightly longer, but it felt just the same as before.
    Poke is 5mm more and so is inner distance to suspension, so it's safe.  Although the fronts look to be barely clearing the arches, there is no scrub on full lock.
    Scrub radius remains the same, so the alignment that Abbey Motorsport did for me remains good.

    It's just a small thing, but I like my wheels finished with the proper manufacturer's logo.  I found these very good quality roundels from an eBay vendor in Portugal.  They are 55mm and fit the XXR centre caps perfectly.
