It is better, but still not a fan. Will talk about getting a complete respray down the line.

It is actually called Gulf Blue I believe, from the famous colours of Gulf Racing fame.

Sorry Steve, back on topic, I would like to see some more shots of your car, or are you waiting for the shiny brakes to come first before a shoot? I would be overly excited if I was to get some of those Brems, I had another look at them on ind fark they are expensive

Gulf Blue doesn't quite work without the Gulf Livery - for me at least!

Steve hasn't mentioned what he's getting with the calipers...

Don't mind threadjacks, especially I mentioned the English car.

A photo shoot is not quite worth it at this stage. .

One of those went arse first into the wall at EC last tuesday, a real shame, they are a nice looking car in the flesh, i would definately like to own one, but seem to be a massive handful on the track, even more then a 1M

That's a shame, very sad to see nice metal ruined. Hopefully the driver was okay.

I think it probably wasn't setup very well. My few test drives have been extremely balanced and lovely - the car is very manageable - I found.

Mine had terrible tyres on that had hardened so had a few lairy moments but the car let me know!

This came in today! Now, I can flash mine back to stock and see if I can get things moving trying to down load the ECU with the BT cable. .

Just a precaution. Ess took 15 to flash last time but not sure how long to flash back to stock.

Also will take an hour to reload the stock file for ess. Thinking of charging between each flash.
