All 195/50/15: 2 x Avon ZZS with about 2-3mm £30 2 x R888 with various tread across the tyre from 0.5-3mm £10 2 x Rainsport 3 with around 3mm £10

Got a load of cheap part worn tyres to sell now though, AVON ZZS, R888 & Rainsport's etc.

Yes, yes I do! :grimacing:

Aye, these will now be my road and wet tyre replacing the Rainsports. Should be a much better all-rounder to use when I can't use the Toyo RS1's.

Yeah I stared track days with a fully standard car and built it up gradually. It's part of the fun for me with the buzz of fitting something new and not knowing how it's going to change the car. Just recently upgraded to slicks so really excited to get to use these.

Just ordered a set myself, for fitting Saturday...unbelievable price really! https://www.kwik-fit.com/tyres/search/details/yokohama/ad08r/t1016246

Thing is you will have learnt the cars behaviour on the limit with those ditch finders in the wet, best thing you could have done as now once you get decent tyres you will be able to really push on knowing the limits and more importantly how to control it on the limit.:up:

Car is coming together nicely. What tyres where you on at Donington?

Just managed a very untidy 1:23.401. I've defo got half a second in me. So much better on stable set up as well.

Whatever you go for get something with a metal intake pipe as that's what makes the fatty sound so good as it resonates, bit like the AEM gear for the CTR.

Bigger cone? My fatty is now louder with the new ramair cone as its about 20% bigger than the last one.

Have you found replacement springs yet? I use FK which are much cheaper than AST replacements and lots of variety on lengths and rates.

Nice upgrade.

Ended up purchasing the Fabia splitter. This does look good though, just not sure its for a road going track car though.

:fearscream:

Will do mate, hope its just that. Looking logically at it I best get it replaced before Oulton if it is starting to go as running slicks I can seeing it giving up quickly and spectacularly being on the NSF!

Cheers mate, will whip the hub off and see if Carl can fit the new bearing for me. It's gonna have to be after Oulton now though as I'm not paying for alignment twice as I'm in at Clear motorsport on the 13th for Corner weighting. Lets just hope it hold up :grimacing:

Cheers mate, would you just replace the one or both?

Got a MOT advisory for slight play in the NSF wheel bearing so gonna get it replaced, should I be replacing both or just wait until the OSF gives up before replacing? Also best place to purchase a good quality item without paying £82 a pop from RPD?

Nice, should be able to mount a challenge on this now.

I hope I can get the option of a stable set ups on PS4 as this Caterham on loose is madness! I'm literally sideways more than 50% of the lap, lol.

Mine is where Carl recommends and I have no issues adjusting once strapped in. You'll find once you get a setting you like you'll keep it there anyway. Mines a quarter turn from soft, anything firmer and it feels like an arm workout. Tried it on no assistance at Oulton and nearly binned it at...

£30 ECP AMAX specials...:smirk:

Monster truckin on OE springs...ignore the daft yellow wheel!

Would anyone be up for a online CS.net race series on PS4? I can set it all up and maybe do a race or 2 once a week on a day and time to suit everyone. Getting really sick of the general lobby muppets now, and the communities are way, way to serious!

Cant for the life remember where mine is located, lol. Sure its replaced one of the wheels for dimming or headlights (green dot below). @bloke can you remember?

Whichever decat it'll be good for 10hp and 15ft/lb at EFI :wink:

@Aydon182 ^ something you may have a clue on :tongueclosed:

Final thoughts on this irrespective of figures. I'm happy with the car and the results that matter to me, which is purely track progression. It felt like a different car last time out due to more grunt coming out of the bends and down the straights. For me though It's how it's delivered and the...
