I'll be there eventually :thumbs: :wave: :wave:
Looking like I won't be able to get to this one guys :(
The ***** is still not finished (not being started 'til Tuesday :annoyed: )
And I doubt she'll be ready by the 20th.
If by some miracle she is ready I'll be there

No way, sh1tter....
Does that mean your racing me to the British Touring Car Championship at Thruxton on Sunday in the Polo of doom.
Or catching a lift with me :)
Actually, cheaper if i go with you ;)

Yep, it'll be another 150mile round trip in the POLO OF DOOM for me.....
Shame it's so incredibly :sleep: to drive.
but it won't stop me coming to Thruxton, and a lift would be much appreciated! You can expect another 'grand' entrance at JC's too :thumbs:

Franco,
If you get the car back on the road and mines back from Abbey, we could meet up on the M25 or M4 somewhere. I'll be coming from Sutton down the A217 to the M25 and then round to the M4.

thanks for the help guys... well to keep you posted on the SX,Just passed all the wiring for the sound system.. hopefuly it will be ready by next weekend..Also have to do a service to the engine and fit the gauges i bought if they arrive in time.. got the sleepy eyes working in no time and the car looks good.. done the leaks in the boot.. just need to wait for the first rain storm... If it might help i found that it doesnt leak from the lights but from the centre piece where the reverse lights are... Now just need to seal the holes of the spoiler and spray it(same color at least :p ) :thumbs:

Hello everyone

That should be ok it's just down the road from me, I would go from there along the A312 (or Hayes-By-Pass to the Yokels) to the M4 then along the M4 to Reading.
As for times I have no idea, but somewhere about 7 is when I usually leave to get there & get there about 7.30-7.45 depending at what warp factor I travel at, but name a time as I am not at work or Uni so I can make anytime really.
Anybody else want to join in the convoy?

Probably can't make it now :(
Mrs McC has to go out and I'm left with Miss McC - might sneak her along early if I can ;) but at moment that doesn't look possible.
Jolly: Will you have Jez's super filter there? If yes, What time are you planning on getting there, if I can get along, it will have to be early.
I'll be there about 6 mate, i'll bring the filter. It may be for sale again if your interested :D
Jolly, are you bringing ChrisB with you?
Hello, how did you get on saturday!!!
5 girls and you ;)
Chris will drive up himself i expect
sorry guys, gonna have to drop out of this one... too much on :(
hopefully discs n air filter will be in place for the next meet though... and i'll rid my car of the giant bird turd that's currently covering half my bootlid... :D
have a good one
Hello, how did you get on saturday!!!
I'll fill you in later :) :confused:
Tell Chris I'm bringing his oil!
Anyone else who wants cheap Castrol RS, bring a few quid (£24 for 4 litres and a filter) :Plug: :Plug: :Plug:

I'll be there about 6 mate, i'll bring the filter. It may be for sale again if your interested :DDefinately can't make it tonight :( I have a superfilter, just really interested in the extra holes yours has drilled into it ;) Also I've got an adapter that came with it from a 180SX, a bit clueless about it but *may* be suitable to fit to Z32AFM.
I'll drop you a PM at the end of this week, perhaps I can come over & see the filter before you decide what you are doing with it... or could you take some close up pictures of the 'fitting' side - where the threads are to bolt it onto the adapter/AFM?
What sort of mods are you doin to your car for all of this?
Ally McC

What sort of mods are you doin to your car for all of this?None that's the problem ;)
The superfilter I bought from Japandy came with an odd adapter (photo's here (http://www.allymcculloch.co.uk/airfilter)) and I'm trying to fit the filter onto my standard AFM on the cheap :rolleyes:
The SuperFilter that Jez sold seemed to have extra threads tapped into the filter. I wanted to see how this was done, 'cause it might be a solution for me ;)
I doubt your filter would be suitable unless the extra threads that have been tapped in are in the right pattern to bolt directly to the std S13 AFM.
Ah! ok....
A K&N or Blitz LM is good and cheaper? So i take it mines been adapted to fit a S13 AFM then? Wanderd what the extra holes were for. Wish jez had said. The holes have been made by self tapping screws...

k&n is good for cheap/reusable usage but the apexi filter apparently came out tops but costs a bit more and isn't reusable. :)
apparently the k&n filter oils aren't good for the hotwires of the afm, but I haven't noticed my idle being off, and I recently cleaned mine.

So i take it mines been adapted to fit a S13 AFM then? I don't know, I assumed they were to fit onto the Zed AFM, but if they do fit the std S13 AFM, fancy swapping SuperFilters;)
The holes have been made by self tapping screws... that's what I wanted to know :) bit nervous about trying though incase I really bugger it up :wak:
Here's the picture you've all been waiting for........ (not)
This was taken early on in the evening, there were a good few more later on (including several S13's and an even another s14 (Pops!)
Sadly as Simon was no where to be found and Hingy was having a KFC I've had to substitute them both for a banana :D :wave:

No worries mate,
I kept an eye out for any new S13's but didn't see any so I assumed you hadn't made it.
Catch up with you at the next one
