Interesting ... does the sensitivity adjusment alter the time delay i wonder?

I decided to go for the Eagle F1s, they are one of the more expensive tyres usually coming in at around £80-90 per corner, I got a full set fitted for £300 which worked out quite well. Havent used the car since so I cant tell you my experience but I think from a looks point of view they are great.

I guess I should take it easy on them for a while :( Haevnt been for a blast since Xmas !!

Ive just replaced my 17,500 mile old contis with a full set for F1-GSD3s, apart from the better looking tread and the fact Ive only just got them I dont know if they feel better. I agree with the feeling harder comment as I thought the same, maybe they just have a little higher pressure in em...

You might also be able to get polished wheels as an option to the mk2?

I was quoted £800, elephant, london. This was about £200 more than a quote for the 172.

This is real easy as you can jack the whole side of the car up from the front, I did this to swap my fronts with rears.

Sounds fun, I love it when people seriously mod these beauties. Have you had it rrd? presumably thats where you got the 250 figure from, what kind of torque are you getting?

I dont want to decat as that will cause MOT problems in the future hence going for the sports cat, however, if the hidden pipe doesnt cost much and does improve airflow then I might get it. At least I know I dont need to get a new tailpipe now :)

:o No problem, cant believe you got told off - LOL

Im guessing there wont be any point in buying a K-Tec exhaust with hidden tailpipe over using the standard one would there?

I quite like the hidden tailpipe on the 172 with the standard bumper thats why I was asking, thinking of getting the sports cat with some induction to go with it.

If I have the sports cat fitted will I have to have a new tailpipe too?

Is you mate called Bobby?

Im replacing all my tyres for F1s, best quote I got so far is £306 fitted at Kwik-fit. LMK if you find any cheaper.

Ah, thought it was banging during acceleration when the wheels arent spinning. Damn :(

Im going to get some Goodyear Eagle F1s fitted soon, Ive heard good things about them.

Put me down too. Dont think I have it, but I get the banging during wheelspin ?

That a star wars reference? Guess youre on about my grammar?

Yup, 16D the 172 is.

How do you know whether you need this or not?

Cool, will do that :)

Blimey, maybe Ill find out a price from them.

Might have to try and find a supplier near me that can do them.

Hmm, for me they seem to be £80 each plus £10 fitting which is £360, if I could get them for < £300 I would. Anyone know anywhere in London ???

Was there not a dash warning light or anything?

Hehe, not quite a tight ass, but at twice the price of other tyres that makes it go up to near £400 :(

Hmm, dont fancy the contis again, any other options?

Arent the rainsports a bit naff in the dry?
