Re: i Sold my rwd escort cosworth 400bhp to get a clio 172 ?? did i do the right thin
I'd have rather had that than a tin can cobbled together by some garlic munchers!
Today Team Gaz ripped the heart out of her, in the snow, as you do.
Used some mechanical engineering lack of care and brutality to get it out, the "1 Hour" job that took a few hours by the time we'd got the loom free and everything loose :rolleyes:
Not a lot left on it now, mainly the...
"God it must drive s**t" etc etc.
Funny thing is, not everyone wants to be able to **** the rear wheel in the twisties. Different strokes and all that.
So I don't listen to feedback?
If not, I'd have had the Nissan on your favoured BC Coilovers, but thankfully I've been in enough cars to know the damping was bloody horrendous on them, so avoided them like the plague.
Brakewise, I could have easily spunked money on a full set of K-Sports all...
Because still buy the genuine stickers, caps etc which is still money in their pockets.
The Regas are discontinued, so they can't be bought new. My Meisters, yeah I could have bought them new but TBH for me that's madness when I can refurbish wheels properly for nothing. They'll need the...
There's functioning "fine" and there's functioning "as well". Slipstreams might have functioned fine in my example, but they wouldn't have functioned "as well" as the Regas. That to me is the reason I buy the proper thing everytime. That's not just wheels, that's decent branded suspension...
The offs, nothing more than sliding across some grass, gravel or maybe a bit of tarmac.
Most UK circuits don't have ridiculous bumps, besides bouncing off them doesn't tend to be the quickest ;)
I've said this countless times but when I smashed up 2 Regamasters it was enough to crack a...
I still love how Ant's Rotas spend more time on track than the road, like that means they're somehow taking a massive beating. You driven our roads recently? More likely to damage wheels on the roads than on a track.
They used a KV6. Far better than the 4 pot K series.
SAIC who own MG don't have any other of their "own" engines available than the 1.8T K series AFAIK. Would be suicide if they think it's going to launch the brand but who knows, they may have something else.
The 6 runs a 1.8T K series out of the Rover 75. I would be very surprised if they used it, couldn't see it lasting a full race weekend.
Why do 888 need an MG engine? Hell I've read a few times that the RML Chevys run the same old lump that was in the Cavaliers back in the day. Hardly a dealer...
