In addition to this, the Rant Per Word Ratio was much higher than any of my efforts...  commendable!  PS - Guess who's only getting 319 bhp at the mo'? - Yep, no wonder yours felt quicker! - I've ordered a (gulp  ) new clutch plate, cover and thrust bearing from Simon, which will be fitted and bedded in ready for Rockingham - (ah f*ck it - what's one more loan eh?...).. Anyone wanna buy my old one cheap, and get it reconditioned/re-surfaced?  On a positive note, those S14 brakes are f*cking awesome mate!! Also checked with Simon - I've now got a Garrett GT 3071 Roller-bearing turbo - Anyone know anything about this model turbo? - I'll be happy with it if adding the new clutch gets my power back, but just in case, wondered if anyone's got experience of one? ...Did a few drag runs at Rotorstock (complete with slipping clutch), and was getting an exit speed of 115+ mph (Only a few of the really big hitters were getting 120+) - I'd bog down at the start, or alternatively slip like f*ck, but once going I'd almost catch up (and in some cases, overtook) the Skylines, etc.. that I was up against.... MOST annoying, but i'll nip back there in a couple of weekes to get my launches rigght, and to see what a good clutch'll get me! (If my diff don't chew itself to bits first! ) - Anyhoo, those brakes stopped me a lot quicker than I'm used to, and I'm well impressed mate!PS - My mates told me that the commentator announced that he could see that my car should be getting MUCH quicker times, as he could see by the way that the thing really took off once it was going! - I should have mentioned the worn/slipping clutch on the entry sheet, so he didn't think it was all down to me! PPS -Whoops - Sorry Shaun mate - Think I'll have me crown back with this post eh?... PPPS - Don't suppose you've got enough bits to make up another of those modified LSD's *just* in case mate?... lol! Roll on Rockingham! ;-)
