Chris and Alana Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 As in the title. I fancy having my soop put on the rolling road to see how its performing and to check the AFR. I'v not done this yet since going BPU and should really have it checked out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris and Alana Posted September 16, 2007 Author Share Posted September 16, 2007 Hi angus, good to see your still around and glad to see your still enjoying the supra, you'll like it more when BPU. I'm running abit more boost now than when we met but I could still do with an electronic boost controller to keep it at 1.2bar in the summer. Hope you enjoy it. . . . You should pop along to some of the local meets that Liam keeps organising, it's a good way to meet others from the club and have a look at other car's (and get idea's for your own ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrivingTheDream Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Theres one at Boldon-Vsport I had mine on yesterday for a RR open day and it made low figures-Jurgen reckons it may not be 100% set up yet as he had one on yesterday and it too made low figures compared to what was expected. Btw mate my Dad works with your lass I believe... Its a small world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris and Alana Posted September 16, 2007 Author Share Posted September 16, 2007 Yeah she does work with your dad. I think I met your brother when he had your car, does he work in halfords? Why are you selling? It's a shame because it's a nice car. How did you find the Vsport anyway? did they seem to know what they were doing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on holiday for a fortnight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris and Alana Posted September 16, 2007 Author Share Posted September 16, 2007 There no sign of the next one yet, but I'll send you a PM when I find out. Going anywhere nice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrivingTheDream Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Well it was the first RR I had done but my mate who'd been to a few wasnt too complimentary. They did say that for £70 they would have an hour or 2 fiddling around to get the best out of the car etc. I've decided not to sell now-Its too addictive (as you probably know!). I was selling due to our 2nd child on the way and needing a boot etc as she has a 3 door Rav4 but I'm just saving up and getting her a 2nd hand Focus instead now.... .....She doesnt know all this yet mind lol, I'm waiting for the right time to put my plan to her.

Yeah they are addictive and great fun Glad to see your keeping it, I might see you about then, like I was saying to angus you should come along to one of those local meets Liam organises, there is usually a decent turn out, just need the weather really. Would you mind if I ask how much it cost for the session at Boldon and how long you got? (PM me if you like) I'll drop them an email anyway and see what they say.

Thank's Yeah I'll pop along to a future meet I paid £40 for a basic dyno/power run but that was discounted by £10-£20 quid for an open day. http://www.vsportonline.co.uk but its under construction at the moment so phoning would be best.

merckx Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 There's one in Newburn, I recall a member on here saying that he has used it. Andy Urwin Motor Engineering The Old Glass Works Business Units, Lemington, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Tyne and Wear NE15 8SX 0191 2670999 This is his new address, it might be worth giving him a ring to check that he still does this.

Gaz Walker Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 I think Andy Urwin got rid of his rollers when he moved premises-They were also rumoured to be very inaccurate Yep - believe that to be the case. I've never heard of V-sport. I live about 1 mile from Boldon! Gaz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrivingTheDream Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Yep - believe that to be the case. I've never heard of V-sport. I live about 1 mile from Boldon! Gaz. Fairly new place with even newer rollers-There on an industrial est past the pics, Bensham St I think, the postcode wasnt in my sat nav which needs updating....
