Hi all,

Introduced to the board by a friend with an RX7 who knew some members here...

I bought a 1999 GPvR aero spec. And its going great for me so far. Car is immaculate and bought straight from an importer. pretty standard apart from tien springs and exhaust etc.

just ordered a cambelt kit from camskill, and some denso iridium IK22s on ebay.

Welcome!

Tidy looking model, especially in the engine bay! Seriously clean in there! Might want to turn your oil cap the right way up though... :wink:

seen you the other day, think it was monday you were on the m50 and went up the blanch exit. I was behind you in the work van, flashed you but dont think you noticed. Nice car, nice hummm out of her too. Happy motoring

hey karlf!! No I never noticed yah, but that would have been me heading up N3 exit alright.

Still getting a feel for the car so no doubt I was just tipping away.

Jesus man thats one clean engine considering the sh1thole you've parked the car in! :wink:

haha... the car don't live there thankfully, thats just my mates tyre garage. I was getting tyres swapped as it came in from japan with ICE gaurd snow tyres... not good at all for these roads :lol:

yeah, I dunno what they clean the engines with? anyone any ideas? wd40? STP son of a biaaatch? it was certainly spanking. After a week on the M50 I can already see a nice little residue of dust appearing. might try and keep her clean though. give her an ould rub every week or two
