Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM

[cully]

Im liking them both but for different reasons
terrenis cause they look cool
pro3's cause they have epic tyres with a smaller tyre size which increases the acceleration pull

Top ones look ten times better, the bottom look small & I dunno, just not right.

[mr_fish]

I like both, but sway towards the Pros for some reason.

Couple WIN sets of wheels though

[jammapic]

I'm a sucker for a 5 spoke...

[Eeyore]

As I said on facebook, speedlines ftw.

[Kezzieboy]

Both look sexy, but I've always loved Pro Race 3s

[Dum-Dum]

I prefer the look of the 5 spoke ones but they look too small. you need them in 16s to make them perfect.

had an epic day today at castle combe

[attachment=18971]

then we had a few steady laps

[cully]

so that was the end of the first session
so i then reduced the front and rear tyre pressures to get some more heat into the tyres
so out to the second session
theis was a good run tyres heated up and were excellent

some pics into quarry

Oh how did i miss that! lol. Were lucky not to do any damage. Mind, was your splitter already fooked up like that?

[cully]

yes the splitter was already well twisted need to do away with it and find a genuine 6 one

[Toms306]

Agree'd, 'guna splitters always look crap anyway.


What tyres were you on? I assume they're the track tyres if they needed to warm up?

[cully]

track was cold at 1030am tyres are yoko A048's

bianca has thrown a hissy fit as ive got a new car!
she has decided to play up by breaking the window regulator system in the drivers door.

on investigating it it looks like the previous owner had grafted a non std part in there which I couldn't match for parts
so for the last week she has been living with wood chocking up the window
until I could visit Dangti6 to pick up a STD assembly to fit,
which i have now done
I must say the STD rivets that hold the motor is a pants idea but Rivnuts are a excellent invention which i highly recommend

need to get the window grommet to finish the job but it went back together well which makes a change

got bored at home today so have had a go at destroying a throttle butterfly Rocker sold me

i roughed it out on a lathe at work a few weeks ago and today i attacked it with a flap wheel and dremmel need to enlarge the opening a little more then need to match the inlet plenum chamber

Looks a beauty there mate, fancy doing mine?

[Piggy]

Wow I missed the offs. Camp is fricking quick corner too! Scareeeeeey!

[cully]

Today was a bit of a milestone for the six
took her out for a run as shes been a bit neglected recently, since the purchase of the new daily 

today we filled her with momentum99 and rinsed the whole tank!
no cobwebs left in the girl and she still maked me grin

she has hit 130000 today
bought her in april 2013 @ 122700miles

so ive done 7300 miles in 20 months of owning it, 1500 miles of that was the trip to the nurburg ring Germany 

she has a lot going for her and has plenty more to give roll on the new year

Quietly steve

Did the spliter bent back ok ? Got many trackdays in mind for next year?another trip to the ring?

[cully]

splitter has seen better days and being a gooner one it looks well sad on a six,
Im not going be going to the ring in 2015 as ive done that now, I maybe will go back at some point, but for 2015 we are taking a family holiday to the sun somewhere and maybe a few track days in this country

[cully]

its the wifes birthday today so we booked a table for lunch in Lynton north Devon
so we filled the car with fuel
and rinsed 1/2 tank in 130 miles

had an epic trip and found wind rain snow and glorious sunshine
Bianca is very dirty now and will take a while to get back to clean

[cully]

have decided to show the car some love  
so have decided to give the paintwork a bit of a birthday as it was looking a little grey
ive been down through the drivers side now with the buffer and polish and she is looking a lot better,
ive also removed the side stripes stripped them and re painted them so they look a lot fresher and arnt showing big flakes of missing paint,

just the top front back and the other side left to do
sorry for the crap pictures someones nicked my good camera from the drive!

Looks really good mate

Is they any sounds or performance differents after you machined out the throttle body?

[cully]

umm   no cause ive not fitted it yet, should really do that

[Piggy]

Is there any performance difference with the rebuilt shiney engine?....

That's also not fitted ;P

[cully]

seems to be a pattern here

[cully]
