Thanks all, looks like we have enough of us soft jessie southerners to make it worth while ;)

I'll call Austec back and see what their diary is like, and what their charges are like.

I'll be back.......

Dont worry ANT, although mine is a turbo it hasn't had anything done to the engine, so it looks like we gonna be sitting pretty.... at the bottom of the list!! :oops:

I've never even been on RR day before, I just hope my engine doesn't blow up! [-o<

I did ask these boys what I need to check before going, but nobody seems to care.... maybe they all just want somebody to laugh at. :cry:

I've never been on one either but from what i understand as long as your cooling system and clutch are ok you should be fine!!!

I just hope mine puts out at least standard power, otherwise i'll have a very red face!! :oops:

Still, should be good fun-i'll be filling up with super and injector cleaner before i go...........(every little helps!!!)

All you need to do for preperation really is check all the ignition components are in good order and that the tyre pressures are correct.

Thanks Mark.

I think my rocker cover gasget has gone, cause my spark plugs are swimming in oil! :cry:

Everything seems to be running ok though, may have just been loose rocker bolts.

Hopefully i'll get it sorted before the RR day.

Any news on a date?

I'm an RR virgin too :)

The previous owner got 241 at the flywheel a few years ago, so i'll be hoping for around that figure!

Hi I would also be very interested in attending this too. Never been to a rolling Road before and I only have a NA, but as was modified by pervious owner would be interested to see if it has any more bhp than a standard car.
Sorry to ask a novice question but are low body kit front bumpers likely to a problem.

Right, just waiting for email back from Austec.

If we have spaces left over, does anyone mind or see a problem with inviting a few over from www.mkivsupra.net ? I've now sold my Supra, but still post on the forum, be good to see a few Supra runs :twisted:

Be in touch 8)

Okay, I've heard back from Austec.

Minimum of 5 cars, maximum of 15. Price is £30-£60, so I would imagine 5 cars is £60 each, 10 cars is £45 each and 15 cars is £30 each. I certainly wouldn't want to spend more than £30, so we would need to get 15 of us, but I don't see a problem.

They could do December 17th, but that's a bit soon for me TBH, my mods aren't finished #-o

So we're looking at January. How does this sound ?

Hopefully all the mods sitting in my bedroom will be on the car by then, plus a few others :twisted:
