    PCI diffuser fitted! I might cut slots just below the muffler edge and tip so I can raise the rear of the diffuser. Don't really like the gap between the bumper.

      Love it!

      I agree with cutting the slots to push up the diffuser.

        Made it to my last Circuit Club track day for the year.

        Not a whole lot done - just trimmed the rear bumper and lifted the trailing end of the diffuser and clipped some redundant wiring in the rear of the car. And some new / refreshed vinyl.

        No PB, did 1:11.9 - unfortunately had an off track excursion when I hit some fluid (will upload a video at some point). Result of that was a slightly displaced bumper, crack splitter (yay plywood) and a bent bracket that we fixed with a BFH.

        I reckon I'll have about two more track days on the AD08Rs before I switch to A050s.

              I can't believe how far your car has come... it wasn't that long ago that it was road registered.

                Yeah...there is a tinge of regret. I should have kept it stock and restored it like you have Pete. If I had really thought about it, I should have bought a VTiR and stripped it.

                That said, starting with a DC2R made it a lot easier too...and I am enjoying it very much!

                  Long time since last update! I'm getting the car back tonight. Had a hotdog added thanks to the noise restrictions at Wakefield, 5 point harness added for passenger and a couple of other little things...like R-spec tyres.

                  Importantly though, I had the ramps extended to 3.5m on the trailer. Got sick of dicking around with wooden blocks and add-on ramps.

                  Almost as long as the car! They stick out ~20cm from the back of the trailer now apparently...haven't seen it yet. All set for HNats!

                  Can't remember if I posted this before but the car weighs ~950kg now, and if I can scrounge the money together, I'll get polycarbonate windows.

                  The aluminium exhaust has held up well. No holes but it did have a bit of a bend probably due to a combination of an off track excursion and heat expansion - it's quite solidly mounted at one point.

                    So I finally did a K-swap...

                    Well, not really. Bought this - single owner, 2007 FN2R. Mint. Not pictured is the GP front. Has 108,000kms. No wear on the seats at all. Mate owned this but bought an RS3.

                    First mod will be a "downgrade" to 17" rims.

                      Nice one Bryan - what made you decide to add a FN2R and get rid of the Turbo MX5? I would have thought having a FF and FR car in the stable would be a good mix!

                        I'm guessing you bought the FN2R for daily duties!

                          Indeed! Also trying to shrink the garage a bit - sold the MX5 and will sell the Outback when I get back from HNats. So now I have two red Type Rs...

                              Haha we went different ways! I went b. You went K.

                              I've got a few parts lying around namely one being a brand new oem timing chain tensioner!
