Thanks Jesus ;) (never thought I'd say that lol) Eibach Sportlines & Koni Yellows bud :)

Bit of a delay with the pics but here we go..... Got some of these and some of these and these, followed by some of these, and mated them all together with my Sportlines

I'm pretty happy with how the Monaco is sitting now, keeping it pretty simple :) The colour definately comes alive with a good polish and some sun, agree? ;) She's now sporting a full set of AD08's too :) (not shown) I personally think it looks a tad lower than most 1*2's running Sportlines...

As above, I bought a couple to stay legal whilst getting some money for a full set of AD08's, under normal driving conditions they're fine but if you want to go for a "blast" they feel a bit soft in the sidewalls. Maybe its just because the last couple of sets have been track biased tyres...

Drunk? lol I would probably have thought "who lie hells this guy?!" Lol ;)

Wheres the fun in that? :rasp: Another not-so-stealthy way is sticking a C4 to a truck and driving it towards the outpost and bailing out, when they come to investigate, BOOOOOM!! I prefer stealthy personally, until the s**t hits the fan anyway!

That may have been me on P.O.W, I was on the way home from a mates ;)

Parked next to me when I came out!

Its not that bad I just notice it when initially pulling away when its been stood but it seems to sort itself out. I'll clean it all up anyway to eliminate it. One thing after another lol!

I'll check them and clean them up over the weekend, I have noticed if I don't drive the car for a couple of days and I pull away one side of the handbrake drags slightl. I've tried it with 2 different sets of tyres, but I've got 4 new ones on the way too.

I don't have a manual adjuster on mine, only the little adjuster wheel for the dash light brightness

HID's direct also have several "temperature" (colour) options, I think the 4k ones are closest to standard, thats what I went for anyway :) Not sure on that one mate, never looked at Cup ones

What do you mean "rear suspension adjustment" ? First I've heard of it too lol

I also got some from HIDs Direct for £15pair and have had no trouble whatsoever and they look O.E, but for the price of the expensive ones @ £60 each you can get 8 pairs of the cheap ones, is that not a no-brainer? lol

Had my tracking and camber setup on Monday ready for a track evening, it handled perfectly and tracked perfectly on and off throttle and when braking. All evening it was fine, even braking from 110+mph, didnt once squirm badly or kick the rear out.... Now suddenly after refitting the front...

Re: Ph1 172 Coming along nicely, I bet it feels so much better to drive with all the fresh suspension components and RSR's on now :) LOVE the mk2 Fiesta too, I bet that causes a stir on the road!!

http://www.negative-camber.org/jam149/technical/alignment.html Have a look at that page bud, I used this method last year when I was experimenting. It also includes the maths thats needed to work out angles relative to wheel size etc ;)

Young lady driver, anyone here? :)

Surely something a bit harder, along with harder springs will reduce the amount it rolls over? i.e doesnt roll onto the outside of the tyre. Its always gonna be hard on that tyre though due to the nature of the track. Maybe I should slow down a little, or adjust my driving style ;)

Were you on track? There was so many Clios there lol! Where you uploading to mate?

Its to do with the coolant temp sensor IIRC, if it doesnt quite get up to the set temp, I forget what it is, it uses a lower rpm limiter. There's basically a "cold limiter" before it allows the full 7200rpm!

Just been round Snetterton this evening, had an awesome time on track :) But, Ive noticed I'm getting some serious wear on the outside edges, even the top of the sidewall tbh. Now I know Snetterton is a fast circuit and can be hard on the N/S front tyre, especially when carrying alot of speed...

Fair few clios on track this evening, mainly 1*2's but a couple of 200's too. Unfortunately didnt get to speak to any of them but had a play on track :)

Lol I was putting mine on at 3am in Thurrock services! gutted I can't make it this year.....I'm definitely going again though!

I'll meet up somewhere in Norwich if others are game :) got any A048s on the van Lewis?? lol

Mine's goosed too, was like it when I bought it! :(

That sounds awesome, lovely throaty noise :)

Likewise, any parts Ive bought from there have always been as described. Put it down to bad luck, although I'd still be pretty pissed off as you say :( I have a pair of wishbones I no longer need ;) Ball joints need doing though, but they arent bent

As above ^^^^ obviously dont "aim" for the plastic, and possible with those little blow torches wiith a flame thats only 5-6mm wide.

Perseverance usually pays in these situations lol A combo of heating, WD40/Plusgas, twatting it multiple times should budge it eventually :)
