Here's mine, all 760 BHP of it. Is yours standard?

Mine's standard at the moment but has the ceramic brakes so I figure I should treat her to the power to match the braking performance (700bhp) by the time I go to Le Mans next year wink

I have the ceramic brakes on mine, too, you really need them with the weight/power, I've got a second set waiting to go on mine (first set lasted 50k). Who are you having map the car? MRC Tuning in Banbury know these the best. Sorry for the thread drift.

That is mint! My flatmate should hopefully be taking his S13 200sx if it ever gets built before then

I'll be taking my R32 GTR down there with another, and a VW transporter in convoy.



My mates is a cracking one, but I've nicknamed it the glitter ball!

Hopefully staying on houx annexe

So when is the 'stickered up for Le mans' thread going up???

Well we'll all be equal at 130kph because from what I've seen on previous trips you'd be nuts to go faster wink

I heard they are getting more strict with those stretching that 130 kph. Havent been in 2 years but last time I went, that 130 was stretched by some way with no trouble at all.....maybe I was lucky

I think that's true. I'm in danger of taking this thread way off topic for the second time but there are a load of tales of woe from the last couple of years on here.

I didn't go last year due to the ill timed arrival of my beloved 3rd child but on the way home the year before I had a chat with an RS246 member who had been stung for several thousand euros (3000 I think!?) and had only just manged to plead for them to not take his car. He'd been caught doing 140mph+ and was dreading going home to tell his wife the holiday fund was now being spent by the French police!

As said, you'll keep up easily as I'll be sticking to the limit, or thereabouts, as will most people. I don't fancy any sort of fine before I've even bought a beer!

Saying that, my plans might change and I'll take this instead



If I get my finger out and get it sorted that is!

My friend has the same issue between his A8 daily and his S13 which is in bits. The 200 will be more fun but considering it is in bits that are spread between 2 different properties and 2 different parts of the country, it is looking unlikely.

Was going to take the Integra again but there's only four of us going now so we're taking a CMAX instead.
