Apologies to everyone but I think I might be a pic ***** for a few weeks so here are some more pics...Thanks to Rob (Flaming Monkey) for bringing the camera and his cup. No thanks to the dull weather as I have only caught a really short glimpse of the new paint in the sun and looked fantastic...
Sounds like you might just have a weaker one m8....they vary sooo much it is amazing. Has it been serviced recently? My m8 had a std Cup and it was due a good service. We went for a play and I set off behind him..from 40 -120 I pulled back the 4 car gap and probably pulled another 5 after that...
Cheers guys. Can't say how much it cost as it was a very special mate rate. The calipers are going to be arctic blue as is the 2ltr 16v lettering and I have got 197 renaultsport badges and the clio badge getting done in arctic too. Should look good when it is done...eventually I'll add some...
I had decided to get Cuppy fixed but thought as I was getting it done I would get a colour change. And seeing as it is 90% a track car I have just literally got what is visable from the outside sprayed.
Need to get a few little touches finished (badges and calipers mainly) but I think it is...
I used to think he just drove straight out of the junction but if you listen he does stop...then boots it out probably thinking the rear would step out but just understeered into the post. Think it was eid or something and they hired the car for the day...goodbye deposit!
A little something I...
True....although my m8s speedo was way off at higher speeds. He pulled up a hill here at over 120 (with 3 passengers) where mine would pretty much hit 120 and not much more...yet me vs him with no passengers and I past him pretty well.
Of course his ed30 with a remap when he gets it will be a...
TBH I had watched a few HD films a couple of weekends back and started to think 'is it that much better'. But later I put a shrek style film on normal DVD (Surfs up I think....for Abi obviously lol) and it honestly looked like a copied DVD...colours were no where near as striking and the...
I had numerous plays with my m8s Std Mk5 and no matter what the passage says if the 182 was trying then the golf was remapped. As std mine was a fair bit quicker (although tbh not as much as I thought it would be) but after the remap from 40-120 doo dahs I could just about hang on within a cars...
This is a short vid of mine with a low limiter (pulls hard all the way through to 120 now) in 4th/ 5th gear from just under 90 to just under 130. 90-110 in about 5 secs and even when I change early to 5th it seems to still pull ok. This is with a 182 mani/bmc induction decat and exhaust with a...
I remember when I first saw a vid of someone getting to test drive on in Stuttgart...the noise made it probably one of my favourite motors..F1 anyone! lol

TBF it does look shite but when ever my car is dirty there is always a clean bit on the side skirt where my leg catches (somehow). Maybe if they were red if wouldn't be as bad?
