Clicked the pic & it's asking for a private album password.

Good one! Was that the first time on the rollers? I remember my first experience being quite stressful having spent so much on the car engine, I didn't want it to go bang! I've got a clip of my 100R on the rollers in Photobucket somewhere, I'll have to try & find it.

The fear is only heightened when you sign the disclaimer first to say that if they kill your car then it's down to you!

Standard it's was only 99bhp (1.6)
But on here it made 115bhp, which ain't bad for a 10yr old car
