Afternoon Chaps,
On saturday I have a 7/8 hour round trip to do on the motorway, But the last couple of times I have tried, My cruise control has nt been working.
The button works and clicks in place and the light comes up on dash..
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Josh
My bad... Does sound awesome though!
I think I may need to get rid of my oz F1s and get some 2118s and change my exhaust...
Brilliant day out, look forward to the next!
So today was a good day.
@SimpleJoee organised a local cliosport meet, 6 clios and a fiesta turned up, we went from Merthyr, to Brecon to Llandovery over to the black mountains then back to ystradfellte falls and home.
Brilliant way to spend 5/6 hours, just over half s tank of petrol and...
I'm a big lad so it's on the cards anyways [emoji23] look at it for car weight saving reasons might motivate me more haha
Do you have to pay to put it on one of them? Don't mind if I do, just not sure what to ask or do, might pop to the one in sirhowy tomorrow and see if they'll let me when...
I think we are planning to leave around 10:30 from Merthyr, I think cyfartha retail park.
If you can't make this, the next one we do I'll drop you a PM, any excuse for a nice drive and some pics.
That would be nice then, all about power to weight in these, maybe I should get it on a rolling road and weighed and see where I am before I get throttle bodies.
I've not weighed it, it's on my to do list, it's completely stripped out, no carpets, door panels etc, fibreglass buckets.
I'd like to think 900kg? I plan on polycarb windows, lightweight battery etc to try and offset the weight of the cage. I may also diet too and try and lose a stone or 5.
Ah cheers dude! I may have to pinch one of them off you :)
Few of us are heading over black mountains on Sunday, me and @SimpleJoee and his mate with a 197 meg conversion and I think one or two other with 172/182s, offers there if your free :)
Cheers bud, first car was a saxo VTR which I done a 16v swap on, then crashed it. Learnt my lesson, got this and tracked it. So much fun for what they are.
Mines the JP4S which is supposedly 125bhp standard, I'd like to think I'm around 135/140bhp mark and eventually I'd like to see it around...
I'm booked back on for 17th October dude!
Funny enough I was gonna PM you to see where you got the Llandow circuit stickers from but they've now got them for sale so will pick one up on my next day!
The cars obnoxiously loud, but it's hilarious, the pops and bangs are nuts, the chav in me loves this, but I couldn't do it daily again.
I'm 5ft9ish, but I'm a big lad at like 19st haha! The pedal box is small coming from the Clio, but it's not too bad.
Yeah saxos and 106s are the same. 90%...
Thanks mate, just checked my tinehop and I owner it a year today!
Haha which bit of the plate?
My mates say it looks like r****d or turd haha
Car people normally see TRD which is Toyota Racing Developments.
Paid £300 for the car, currently owes me around £2k at the moment. Unfortunately £400 is paintwork because it was f originally gonna be a second car.
I know it's only a 106 but the cost doesn't bother me, I enjoy building it and love driving it.
Since the last update I have done another track day at llandow, The difference between using T1Rs and R888s was insane, Taking corners much faster and also give me a lot more confidence, The satchshift is a brilliant bit of kit, Worth the money and the effort of fitting it.
Ive done 2 track...
I polished and waxed my car last weekend, looked great, give it a routine snow foam, wash and dry yesterday, then meguairs quick detailer after to get any water spots etc I may have missed.
Is there a better QD to enhance the gloss? It looked just as good yesterday as it did when I waxed last...
Why people would buy a cheap suction mount is beyond me, I've got the genuine go pro one and have no doubts it will stay on the side of a car at ridiculous speeds.
I made a time lapse a few weeks back, first I've done, set it to 10secs a shot which I think may have been too long?
^ that.
I've missed the last couple of runs out that people have organised but as long as it isn't on 17th October I'll be there.
As that's a track day :P
