Fair enough. If that happens - and I will try to make it happen, you have first refusal.

I think I can sadly report that Blade is not 100% on selling his seats!!

He has the Spev V recaros in his car at the moment in place of the standard ones...I have email out to Iain in the suspension and splitter and shall chase the grand master of GTR tuning...Tony you know the standard Recaros sit too high for you and the support is just not good enough!!

Dibs are yours. As soon as someone brings out a better car for me it will be up for sale. Right now I can't imagine what that might be or who could make it, so I'll be keeping it a whole.

My reasons being any replacement would have to be.

Smaller
Lighter
Faster in every way
4wd
4 seater
Turbo charged
Technologically more advanced
More economical
Lower tax bracket
From a non flashy marque.

So, what are the chances?

R36 might tick a few of those boxes in a few years??

And looks great by the way mate

Lovely set of tasteful mods so far

I'm of to see Iain on the 13th. Just for the 18 month service though

Looking good, I agree entirely the mods you've gone for are the perfect road car setup, I'm off to see Iain myself on the 11th for my stage 4

Had no idea the stage 4 was so popular. Am not used to a car of this performance without the compromises that come along with an aftermarket ecu. The ecutek is so impressive I just wish it had been around to this level on all my previous cars instead of going through the hassle of trying to fit something generic.

It's such a well rounded package it could be fresh from the factory. My previous cars were making noises, I was priming oil pumps, waiting for forged pistons running clearance to stop slapping as they heated up and checking gauges constantly for any sign of engine failure, probably due to the big end bearings!!! I was paranoid about every noise.

Now I just switch on and drive. For the upgrades to be done in a day with no down time?? I just can't believe it! It woulmine more believable if it was tamer than my previous cars but it decimates them all.

Make no mistake though, I will get those turbos!

Problem is I have been losing weight so am sitting lower now and have got used to it!

It's slipped down the list thanks to Adam taunting me with his mods!

To be honest I haven't got the time to do anything until May. Then the car will go to Iain for a makeover to better Adams

[QUOTE=Adamantium;1605356]So, on to my last modification for now.

Last time I visited I happened to witness the purchasing of an Alcon brake upgrade at the hands of another forum member - Turbotwo - hello graham if you are reading this.

Problem is when I know someone equally as passionate and exacting as me (i.e. you) then I have to listen to you waxing lyrically about the mods. That in turn ignites my passion and excitement, which is unfulfilled as I don't have the same bits or same experience.

I fear this is an expensive road as when I get new bits, they are most likely going to appeal to you and you will get them and vice-versa!!

We may end up with two very nice almost identical GTRs that look amazingly "stock"!
