After 5 years of happy partnership it is time to find 330 a new home. The T has done only 20k with me and 47k in all, much loved and usefully modified to improve power and stopping, and of course the sachs have been refurbished and all belts have been done.
The car has been amazing on track -...
My light is on permanently - until I plug in the reader and turn it off - it has no impact on performance at all. I bought the reader from K-Tech for about £30 as i remember.
I have brembo max discs and after a short period with mintex pads (poor cold performance) i have been using carbon lorraine pads for the last 2 years. I also have toyo r888s and have done 6 track days running for at least 30 mins without a break and we ran for 45 mins non stop at snetterton...
I have had the carbon lorraine pads with brembo max, unbelievable stopping performance, can be noisy, but incredible performance. Now onto my second set. Highly recommended if you want to do trackdays. Also, much better from cold than many others, particularly the Mintex pads I tried before.

yes they are 17 inch wheels, the ride is a bit firmer than on the OEs but as much due to the tyres I think, run them at quite low pressures - 23 cold 27 hot. no pictures stationary at the moment. I live in Aylesbury by the way. I can completely recommend the 17 inch option as it reduces...
Trophy was mighty at Silverstone - both in the dry and the wet, lost count of the number of times we passed porsches, ferraris, lotus and other slowly driven exotica - the DB9 was a highlight!
the 17s with 888s weigh about 1.6kgs more than the 15s but crucially the 17s have 40 section tyres and consequently a much stiffer sidewall which is essential for track work in a trophy. having tested the accuracy of the speedo with GPS to check the gearing I was surprised to see that at an...
well, I fitted brembo max discs, new fluid and mintex 1177s which was fantsatic on the track - unbelievable stopping power - however when the brakes were cold and under heavy braking you were never sure which way the car was going to go, sometimes a major correction was needed and I felt this...
Interesting question, apparently they developed the cams themselves and in fact there is a bigger increase in torque than there is in power and max torque is still reached at 5250 rpm, also they did not increase the rev limiter suggesting that all this would do is increase engine wear.

I have the morego conversion.
MIltek exhaust is included and sounds great, definite improvement in torque throughout the rev range, bigger push over 5000 revs, it definitely feels quicker - but didn't do before and after rolling road - sorry guys.
Combined withe the sticky rubber it was...
Yes I did buy it privately and yes it was the Trophy with the "off the wall" stickers on it. it has done 29000 but has clearly been well looked after. i still cant get over the way it corners on bumpy roads...
