Was a really good show and one to definatly go to again next year.
I was shopping with the big boys yesterday and made my list of bits avaliable for the club.
Forged pistons.
Choice or Group A, Group N, extra tall for high compression and extra recessed for big valves
£500
Cams
Kent, Catcams & Blitz both had some lovely stuff. Catcams had some light weight flywheels avaliable apparently aswell....
£650 for pulleys and verniers.
Gearbox's
Sadev and Quaffe had some lovely stuff avliable if your wallet was big enough. But a LSD would have suited me.
£1000 for LSD £6000 for a race spec cracker
Coilovers
Too many companies to mention. But nearly everystand had some of some dscription.
£600 plus
Brakes
Made some good contacts and found a company to rival wilwood in design and style. This might be come a group buy.
£300 - £500 for a direct replacement service
Carbon fibre
Was a company there that would make patterns of your original parts. Didnt get chance to ask the price but they looked dear.
Throttle bodies
Omex and Emerald were lusted over.
No deals to be had though and i came away without any carrier bags.
No price as i forgot to ask.
Tyres
Trackday tyres were out in force .....pitty no discount was avaliable
£90 each
I found it hard that they dont do show discount anymore....whats all that about !
