HNY to all of you, hope it goes well for you.

What plans do you have, car wise, for 2007?

Might change the Monaro, probably wont, will probably do some upgrades, maybe headers, & brakes.
Will be looking to change Mrs N's Puma for something newer, she can't make her mind up so that may take a while to happen.

Would quite like to do the Nurburgring in the Moaner too.

Well Ive just fitted the Fast90 with Nick Willams 90mm throttlebody. Was a pain but done now.
Going to need a new clutch soon.
Ill be sticking with what I have for a while. Longer term plans include a stroker.

How many of you guys are going to go for the 4 door Holdens when they arrive?

I am considering a CV8 for 3 or 6 months followed by an S2000 for summer.
Has anybody else considered www.thecarrotclub.co.uk/

A CV8 for £600pm is not cheap but I love the swap every 3 months alternative.

Exhaust (hopefully the loud/quiet jobby) and maybe some brakes or suspension - but little else on my tiny budget!

Monaro - fit new engine and all the bits to go with it, drive it fast (and crack 200mph)

Skyline - swap out good bits from old GTR to new one, drive it fast (either a sprint championship or Time Attack again)

Note the common theme laugh

Ah, wouldn't be able to do that w/e unfortunately as is Mrs N's birthday and it wouldn't be fair to drag her around Germany (could leave her behind I s'pose )

If you end up coming to Perth I'll see what I can arrange. I have known GT since he was racing karts, his Dad used to help with my race car. Also friendly with the local HSV dealer manager (he is a commentator at Wanneroo)
