Thats the thing we were packing up the tent, put it all away they were there one min then gone the next so i think each of us thought they were in the other car then when we were just unloading the car there no where. its a bit odd someone might have picked them up thinking it was rubbish or something.

Hey guys one of the ppl i was with has lost his shoes, they were in a white top man bag and the shoes inside were DC white and black. If anyone knows where these are they would be great, we only had them until about 10 mins before we left, so not sure where the hell they got to. Any help would be great Cheers Elliott

Just got in after a rather fun drive home. with quite a few jap cars :) Had a really good weekend, even though most of it spent passed out LoL Sorry to the ppl i didnt say good bye to and i'll get my photos up later on. Nice to meet some new faces and the old lot too. Thanks for a great weekend and roll on next year :)

We'll be a clackets as early as possible give me a ring when you know what time you'll be there dartford is going to be like a flowers petal, with bee`s buzzing around collecting beautifull nectar for their honey

Depending on revs from 200 degrees up to 700 had it at 800 but was ragging it a little LoL what does your run at ?

We had a manual pump last year but as we pumped up so many bed it broke lol, i think Dave is bringing a motor one this year

The lead investigator is probably now a "Sir" LoL

Well its 8.30am and in brighton is jolly well chucking it down, proper rain this not some pansy shower, and to top it offf my dads sun roof exploded on him yesterday so his pretty newish nissan xtrial is out side with a sheet over it, and hes gone to work on my scooter all the way to crawley Heheeheheheheheh Any weather news from anyone up ti north ???

What is the toyota village ??? im ready to get

A four-leaf clover; Indian head penny; hot blonde majoring in Applied Physics—all things that you don’t come across often and extra special when you see one. Now we can add “Alyssa” to that list. This black beauty started her life in Japan as a 35th anniversary Nissan Z-car and never looked back. Canadian resident Alex Yao took Alyssa on a journey to the US that has transformed her into the 420Z that she is today. No, that’s not a typo directed at our hemp/car enthusiast readers- the Zed is powered by a 4.2L (actually it’s 4.24L, but who’s counting) custom built VQ. When you give Alyssa a cocktail of 100 octane race gas and methanol injection, she won’t hesitate to put out an amazing 760 rwhp/713 ft-lb torque at a mere 18psi of boost. Oh yea, I forgot to mention Alyssa is carrying twins; both named Garrett. Move aside 1977 Topps #207 C-3P0 Error trading card: you just got served on the Rarity dance floor! Alyssa’s tech sheet seems to come straight from of a Grand Am race team: Darton sleeves, custom 90mm crankshaft, port & polished heads, custom valve train, Cosworth bearings, and the list goes on and on. The plethora of engine components easily places this build as one of the craziest non-corporate builds we’ve ever seen here at JTuned. JTuned: How does it feel to drive something with so much power? Yao: It’s kind of like having a high maintenance girlfriend. It’s best not to ***** her off. JTuned: So is it like Rodeo s*x? You know, where you’re with a girl from behind and then you whisper in her ear that her sister’s boobs feel firmer and have to hold on for more than 8 seconds. Yao: … Alyssa’s current state of supremacy wasn’t exactly planned from the beginning: a prior attempt at a built VQ35 ran into problems that forced Yao to seek professional help. Some might have said the help would have been better used for his psyche after the engine mishap, but Yao trudged forward and didn’t give up. They traveled to Southern California to GT Motorsports in Rancho Cucamonga for the fix and ended up with an extreme makeover. JTuned: So Alex, why did you choose to go with a 4.24L build rather than try again at 3.5L? Yao: Well, at the time GT Motorsports just came out with their new stroker kit, so I thought I might as well give it a try. JTuned: Do you have any regrets? Yao: A lot actually. I wasted a lot of money on parts that I couldn’t use any more-- it was a big learning process. JTuned: What was your motivation behind Alyssa? Yao: This is my first RWD car, the first “built” car I’ve owned. I’m in it for the process, not the result. Every time I drive her, I want something new. Whether it’s more power or exterior [modification]. I want to create a personality, like watching a kid grow. Alyssa’s exterior physique developed nicely during her seven-month rebuild. The front lip, side skirts, hood, roof, both A and B pillars, rear hatch, and rear underbody diffuser are all made in carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP). The subtly Magnetic Black painted front lip and side skirts reveals the CF under skin ever so stealthily. The interior got the same carbon treatment: the center console, gauge pod, racing seats, instrument crown, kick plates, shift knob, and rear strut bar cover. Shall I forgo the need to report that the engine bay also has all the factory plastic replaced with a CFRP counterpart? Hmm..indeed I shall. “Hello? Oh hold on a sec-” Hey Alex, it’s NASA calling. They want their carbon fiber back to fix the Space Shuttle! Something that I’m none to familiar with called “Ice,” apparently lines the entire trunk area. There is this giant round plastic object that tends to displace a large amount of air in a low frequency repetition. This is what I would call a “thumping” noise. Next to it is what looks like two amplifiers supplying power to this object. Luckily for me Alyssa’s shoes are quite noticeable. Red four-piston Stoptech calipers call each corner their home as they hover over 355mm cross-drilled rotors. Both are neatly tucked behind a set of 19” Volk Racing titanium gunmetal GT-S wheels wrapped in Toyo T-1Rs. The diamond-cut lip is mesmerizing with a mirror-like reflection of the calipers. The illumination from the fender well is even more breathtaking when Alyssa is in action and on a roll. JTuned: What’s your favorite part of the car Alex? Yao: Honestly? I think it would be the rear emblem “420Z TT.” It’s custom made. “Custom made” seems like an understatement. The shear extreme level of this build is what makes Alyssa so unique, so rare and special, that this JTuned author truly thinks that there won’t be something of this magnitude for quite some time. If you find yourself on the same piece of pavement as Yao’s hot and classy Z, I suggest you take some time to savor the moment. As soon as the boost kicks in, Alyssa will leave you in the dust muttering in awe what those little silver letters on the hatch spell out: 4-2-0-Z-T-T.

this is me on the right, had a bit of a hair cut since then though LoL

hole shizer man when i read the title i though you had proper smashed up the car, glad your ok you still better be coming to JAE even if you cant get them fixed in time LoL Did the driver stop that forced you up there ??

nasty are you doing it friday and saturday night, think you'll need a good massage when you get home LoL

Not sure where your driving from John but i'm sure we can meet up along the way. I was at brands hatch today and left at around 2 there where already delays for the dartford crossing, so maybe leaving a little earlier. What do people think i'm not bothered with what time just not to keen sitting in traffic for ages

Yup M11 john sorry thought it might run lower than M25. Barry, yemgi clacket lane at 3 ish does that sound ok ???????

Wops sorry ahmet i didnt know how to post up the videos from youtube so they play in the thread like this, so had to go and copy one of matt sleeping in another thread then looked at some of your vids on youtube must have got muddled up with all the copy and pasting LoL I was filming its a bit tricky at time lol linked up the boost gauge today pulls up to 0.4 nicely and now i can see when in vacuum and boost Yippy :) Still got a smile daz you bringing yours to JAE ???

i would have thought round the up the M23 then round the M25 "round the up the m23" :lol: i will give that a miss i think we went up the m11 last year i will just leave it to tom to lead the way ps ellz: ive got your no. .....if it ends 416 ? thats the one fella i meant up the M23 and round the M25 lol Barry where would the best place to meet you if we we're to ???

i would have thought round the up the M23 then round the M25

What and waste valuable drinking time You can still drink in the cinema :P dont waste your time i wasnt that impressed its sooooo over the top a little like how brucey is a little over the hill lol

All are in good order lol Sam did a new map on mine not done it on other cars before, the FCON is doing a feed back loop to always look for the optimum A/F ratio, thats why coming off boost when i tinker the throttle its still adjusting slightly (i suppose, i guessing now LoL) as it doesnt do it at any other time. I'm having to feed back to them at the moment it all seems good.

Either Pease Pottage or Clacket Lane. That's the only services I know on the way Thats cool i spoke to doddy today, his work are messing him about a bit but if the worst comes to the worst hes going to phone all his jobs up and book to monday LoL so looks like around 2-3 ish will be good. Im cool wherever we meet. Barry have you got my number ?? I think i've got yours, i dont really no any other barrys and theres only 1 in my phone book. Is janey bringing the MX5 ??? Is there anymore for anymore ????

Cool oil seems ok then, i try not to boost until i see the oil temp gauge move off the 50 degrees which takes a while, but its worth the wait. In the first video just going along the bypass, the spool of the turbo is soooo much louder in the flesh you'll find out at JAE. The car is really impressive in 6th gear, after the Vtii at 4200rpm the needle just keep moving unlike the standard where it really does struggle xMwXCtm35Zc This vid you can hear the car popping a few times as the FCON trys to figure out the right A/F ratio V7SIL1Ts3Hw This vid, dunno what i was doing with camera out the window LoL J-KmInIc7VE Dave not sure what oil was put in i'll check in the morning all the stuff still in my car No worrys TDi i emailed shaun about my ***** up with the sticker (dam wind) if someone could bring another one along to JAE i would be most greatful. Also found out why the boost gauge wasnt working, the vac hose is the wrong one, the one plumbed into the BOV is the correct one, so going to swap that over tomor only take 5 mins. Cheers Elliott

My livers starting to shudder at the thought of this weekend LoL
