Discussion
Down to Peninsula on Friday to get my car back.Richard and team have been tweaking it for me including -:
- 17" Detroit Mag wheels + Toyos
- Nitrons
- Brakes (F 4 pot AP's/310mm, R 300mm )
- Front splitter + mesh grill
- Quad exhaust
- Modwise bits ( Glove box/Boot/2 cooling/bonnet stay)
Play for a few days then into Jason at TVRBodyshop for a twin headlight upgrade.Now saving my pennies for an ACT,Sports Cam and Mark Adams magic tour!

All sounds good stuff!
Will be interested on more views on the light upgrade, when you've experienced the result - I have been contemplating it for a couple of years. Didn't like the TVR Bodyshop approach when they first did it - but I am going to have to do something about the two candlewatt at some stage!

In the near Future I want to upgrade my Brakes and suspension.
Also want to add a Roll bar( just in case) It stiffens up the suspension too. Dont know whether to do that myself as it cost about 1K to buty one and have it fitted.
As for the Brakes and suspension a probably looking at 2k and i would also like the Act plenum upgrade
and MA chip.
Sound like a kid in a sweet shop, ah well chrimbo soon.
What did the twin tail pipes involve Tiny ??

Detriot wheels? I'd love to see a pic of the car too!
BTW, looking at your profile, I can help noticing a similarity:
My cars: Griff 500, Range Rover Vogue
Wife's car: BMW 325 ci
What are the chances of that happening?! - Actually, on PH, probably not that unlikely.
I've modified my Griff quite a bit, and (is this a job ever finished?) now think the Avo's need to be swapped for Nitrons and stiffer springs, and the brakes could do with beefing-up. So I'd be interested to know how you find trhe car when you've got it back and had chance to play a bit.

Tiny, if you don't want to spoil the surprise - look away now............
Looks
,no?
Don't worry I'm not stalking you.
By coincidence my Griff is down at Peninsula at the mo', & a need for 4 new brake discs has brought forward the plan to go for bigger wheels & discs.
I told Neil that I was thinking about the detroits & he said "we're fitting some to a car now, I'll email you some pics".
Small world eh?

Is it only me that has spotted the magic "Wheel-less Flying S" in the background of this picture?
Didn't read my earlier post then?!
What's suspending the S though? I mean it's hard to make out, but there doesn;t look to be a forklift under it, although you can just make out a frame of some sort, but why the hell is it up there anyway?
