Whos up for this then on the 16?

we could maybe use a different meeting point in a similar area if somebody has a better idea?

We're stuck between Milton keynes and the Halfway house Lennie

Isn't there enough local interest to start something new

Theres others in hemel, 200sxer in Watford etc?

We could go on the 16th

formula
02-10-2003, 10:23
count me in also...

fed up of sodding conferences..

meeting at south mimms is perfect for me for the hwh meet, but happy doing a more local one if someone has any ideas..

Ha, Twas I on Tuesday evening, cramming in a full tank before the petrol prices didn't go up on wednesday :cry:

Thats a smart looking blue S13 if it was you with your misses (oops see you have a 14. who owns this imaculate looking 13 in a area)

Have I seen it parked up in the Broadwater road area ? (forget that then)

formula
02-10-2003, 11:37
well.. i filled my tank without realising petrol was due to go up.. lol.. thought i'd been lucky like the petrol crisis..

i completely filled up (something i never used to do) at midnight the night before it all went tits up.. had loads of petrol throughout :)

Cos he's a goof :smash:

*sorry James* :p ;)

I'll prolly go too, if I remember:rolleyes:

02-10-2003, 12:24
I usually use Esso SUL but I was at Tesco at the time, and thought I wouldn't have time to fill up before prices didn't rise.

That Esso one off Broadwater road shuts early?? and I was too late.

Now have full tank of 95 :cry: Only usually put 20-25 ltrs in at a time

formula
02-10-2003, 12:37
usually put esso normal in it, but its a standard car other than the suspension running standard boost, so gain little from sul or optimax..

imo..

*waits for flames.. bring it on you pussies..* :)

02-10-2003, 12:44
You need some more boost, when we meet i will take you for a spin.

You will be phoning bren the next day!

formula
02-10-2003, 12:51
you bastid..

went out in johns car and the next week i was spending 400quid on suspension!!!

this really doesnt help my quest for a clear overdraft..

james

02-10-2003, 12:55
My suspension bits arrive any day

Whiteline anti roll bars, pineapples etc.

Bank account :cry:

I think between my parts and your phil parts all we need is a fmic, rims and a fuel pump and we would have a badass s14!

Alloys in the spring

Lennie

Lennie

archenemy.co.uk
02-10-2003, 13:36
Rims good

Tyres OK to last winter £100 maybe I'll put two new ones on, as I'll be using them next winter.

They are the Jap spec so 7.5" width all round.
Not fitted yet

200sxer
02-10-2003, 13:40
ZX rims were also designed to flow air onto the brakes and are side specific

Do we want to meet @ 7:30 or depart @ 7:30?

If departing @ 7:30 are we going to meet @ 7:15?

I'll be there by about 7 hopefully, so see you there :)

yeager
07-10-2003, 13:41
Can I also add...

Lets all stick to a sensible 80 and stay in a nice group. A convoy looks great when everyone is close together. Blasting off at 100+ causes people to get lost and gain points.

archenemy.co.uk
07-10-2003, 13:47
80s a bit quick for me

I like a nice steady 60, any faster and my pipe tends to fall out of my mouth

Lennie
07-10-2003, 13:57
I think a steady 70, with a few "slower" blasts.

Defenatly NO racing :D

formula
07-10-2003, 13:58
last convoy was perfect..

any quicker than that and my rear wheels would have bounced into orbit..

i'll bring one of the old shocks for some comic relief.. :)

james

archenemy.co.uk
07-10-2003, 14:02
when I had my shocks off the other week they required quite an effort to push / pull them up, they have 44K on them.

I can bring some old oil to laugh at if thats whats you do on such evenings. :confused:

Lennie
07-10-2003, 14:07
Im gonna bring some boost

JackaL

got your springs eh

you'll be needing some whiteline bushes for the rear. Get them before you get it aligned

More than springs mr mono.

So its 7.15 then to leave at 7.30

If they arrive at halfway house at 7 we'll be late but only about an hour, they'll still be there right?

I'm not familiar with S Mimms should I just head for the main car park and see you all there?

All this is assuming my non start / battery problem is fixed.

Lennie: I fitted my pineapples at the weekend, boost valve and densos still in the bag. No Exhaust yet, plans changed, will have to wait to go north for a fitting.

formula
14-10-2003, 09:30
people will be there all evening.. no mad rush to get there..

as for south mimms, just head into the car park.. we'll try to wait where we did before, you should see us when you pull in..

if you're not there before us :)
