The Orange One

Hi

Love what you have achieved, I to have a harrop BBK fitted in Jan organised through Dave Dee. Tried to attach a photo , yellow brakes, black M3 GTS wheels and white E92. Cannot wait till March when we have our next track day at QR organised by Dave.

Enjoy!

Tell me more about these, are these a track only tyre? I'm looking for something just for the track but it would be handy if they were the same width so I can rotate. I was thinking 265's all round. I also have to take a 19' due to the rotor's.

There are 18"s that will fit over the Harrop BBK, I'm pretty sure their car has 18's with 275 semi slicks all round. You can contact Heath at Harrop or I can find out for you.
I know they ran their car at PI just over a week ago for some testing

Hi Guys

Yes 18" Apex Ec-7 rims work with BBK and their are others, much better range of semi-slick tyres in 18" and cheaper. Dave I will have my 18" on at QR with the new brakes.

Yellow on white looks great! I wasn't sure about the sides either I was going to take them off if they looked shit.. took a punt and they look shit hot in person.

Last piece I think will be that duck tail off the yellow thread I posted.

Here's a pic from todays drive...



... 2 weeks and counting till the SC!

Very nice build, congrats!

The car looks amazing Chris and the build is a credit to your commitment. Going back to stock from SC was a shock, you get so used to the extra power. I can't believe how lifeless the car stock is compared to SC.
I think the term blown away describes the feeling of bolting on a SC very well. It will be the icing on the cake
Looking forward to meeting you and the other guys too and the photoshoot.
And BTW, the exhaust system will sound different, a much more aggressive idle and a bit louder.

Yeah getting better, did a 58 on the short which is the best I've managed. Need some tyres though, I'm all over the shop on the twisty bits.
