    Winterhalder reacted to jimgreen83 in Bilstein B8 & Eibach Pro (& other suspension options)   
    Sorry for the belated reply, that was me and seems like a long time ago now! I had quite a bit of work done and then took it to Snetterton the day I collected, it was a completely different car due to all the work completed. I opted for the Bilstein B8’s with Eibach Pro Kit, so thank you for the opinions above. The shocks cost a bit more than originally planned due to stock shortages but I am pleased with the ride. It seems slightly firmer but more controlled. I also used STi top mounts.
    Other bits included the Rogue headers and tune, AP Racing front brake kit, shifter spring, brake stopper and TRD door catches.
    How is the Harrop?

    I thought it was a great day out. I’ll try to make Castle Howard if I can. This was an interesting wrap.

    Would love to come but have a full house with the kids and some commitments this weekend - it's a 90 minute drive for me.

    Yes they have smaller losses but the kit doesn't fit as nice/look a snice in our eyes that why we use the Harrop kit, regards R&D can you enlighten me please what Cosworth have done over and above what Harrop had done please? I presume you referring to the engine work they did in regards engine loading.
    , exactly them same as Harrop did when they developed the kit , they have had a GT86 Development car for a long time.

    There was an issue with the earlier Kits that have been sorted , I being a HKS dealer and a well known tuner wouldn't be selling something that isn't

    Sorry about the sale (I would be gutted if I sold my GT86).
    I'll take it, will want it shipped to Chelmsford (Essex) - how do we move forward?

    I have the Perrins. They work well, still subtle but make a difference. Bought on eBay from the US.

    I'm in for any numbers of days and can "man" for one of them (preference depends on which events I may wish to attend).
    Does anyone know about accommodation? Or, should we expect to drive off then on overnight? (I have family that is close).
    VIP tickets looks tempting - is that for one day or the whole event?

    I think its probably unlikely any large events will go ahead prior to June 21st (although who knows), but looks like Simply Japanese at Beaulieu (July 25th) and Go Japan! (Sep 26th) should get enough interest.
    I will check with organizers whether we would be allowed to have club stands. Assuming yes I will put both events provisionally in the club calendar.

    I was recently thinking about the next meetup - this post is well received and I am in for any of those.
    How about the Museum of Power (Car and Coffee) as a warm up?

    Winterhalder reacted to VAD17 in 2021 Club & Social Events   
    Now, with a number of Covid cases going down and vaccination up my be its time to think (or dream) of when we can have again our club and social events and meets again. I think 1st half of the year is probably a non-starter, but according to the government 4-step plan we should be back to near normal from June 21st.
    So, here are some suggestions:
    Tunerfest South (Brands Hatch) - Sunday, June 20th
    Tunerfest Show – South – The Ultimate Performance Car Event
    (I know I said June is probably too early, but Tunerfest was always one of my favorite events (and the 1st ever I attended with the club 4yrs ago) - would love to do it again this year as 2020 was cancelled)
    Simply Japanese at Beaulieu - Sunday, July 25th
    Simply Japanese Rally | 25 July 2021 | Beaulieu, National Motor Museum
    Good event for entire family, can be combined with New Forest weekend. I am usually away around this time, but if I stay in the UK due to travel restrictions would be keen to do it.
    Go Japan! (Brands Hatch) - Sunday, September 26th
    Go Japan! – Japanese Automotive & Cultural Celebration
    I think it was probably the only "official" event in 2020 where we had a club stand. Even with social distancing it can be great fun.
    Autumn Action Day (Castle Combe) - Saturday, October 8th
    Castle Combe Race Circuit (castlecombecircuit.co.uk)
    Halloween Action Day (Castle Combe) - Saturday, October 30th
    Castle Combe Race Circuit (castlecombecircuit.co.uk)
    Castle Combe action days are not that popular with the club, but we have done them few years ago and also joined couple times Weekend Racers club.
    If you keen to attend any (or suggest any other events) let me know. If we have enough interest I will organize a club stand (and muffins for Tunerfest or Go Japan! are on me for all attendees on club stand  ).
    ... and subject to restrictions being lifted I hope we'll do couple social meets and drives 2nd half of 2021!
    Look forward to seeing you guys in the coming months.
