Good to see that you've got it running well.
What are you thinking with regards to brakes, X308 XJR Brembo calipers and disc though not cheap would fit?
I had AVO lowering springs on my XJ40 3.6 manual, they are 25% uprated so made a good improvement on that, tightened things up nicely...

Indeed Brembo (or in this case DB7 V12) front callipers are going on, re-running brake lines through car and getting custom discs made up.What are you thinking with regards to brakes, X308 XJR Brembo calipers and disc though not cheap would fit?

AVO shocks already made, just waiting on springs
Front subframe has been polybushed and solid mounted, and more weigh has been chopped out
She's very close! First race in April on the 1st @ Snetterton. Hoping she will be ready

Yes that's my business, thank you for spotting. Always trying to find decent well cared for Jaguars, and then trying to stop ripping them apart to make them go faster

Agreed! It really does look cracking. You'll have to do a video of it at some point, I bet the sound is immense! It'd feel like sacrilege in some ways but my X308 R is getting a bit rough in its old age, I had thoughts of stripping it out completely and playing with superchargers just to see how fast it'd go maybe one day
a great weekend, i didnt get time to say goodbye or congratulate you on your success, too wrapped up in the Euphoria of Michael picking up silverware in your previous steed................so, congrats mate, on your success
thoroughly enjoyed the weekend and the club seemed to be well run with plenty of encouragement and support from "rival" teams. ..............im off to strip out me XJR 40
