Post Cosworth days, I've always put an Alpine HU in all my cars, as i like the way they operate and always sound very good.
Like Rob above, my last dabble with more extensive car audio was a pair of Eclipse 12" subs and Eclipse AMPs in the back of an Escort GTI when i was 19.
I think the...
Only thing with doing these is dicking about running cables to the doors and crossovers. I can’t be arsed these days. Would probably also be worth adding some sound deadening while you’re there.
That would be grand. I had the snowfoam literally turning to snow on Friday. It solidified as it was running down the car. I ended up connecting the pressure washer to the hot tap in the end. 😅
I think considering the rest of tat out there £8k is bang on for the miles/condition. I certainly hope it achieves it too as i only helps to bolster the prices of decent 172/182s. Good ones are getting seriously thin on the ground.
No you cannot safely use a 10mm slip on with a Turini. The Turini has a 6mm chamfer on the rear bore which means there isnt enough material left on the hub to safely centre the wheel.
Eddies graph above between 3500-6500 has more torque, than the RS2. Even when at the redline its only just below what an RS2 is making.
So to me, the stock plenum is better for a road/sprint/hilclimb car and the RS2 only really sees any value in outright bhp on track. However if that was your...
Absolutely dire from what i saw mate. Im not talking photos either. Im talking had it in my hands and looked all over it, inside and out. Parts not finished, parts missing, threads not dapped, holes not drilled, the carbon finish is shocking too. The best bit is the Jenvey bit as that's high...
The RS2 torque curve is completely flat, so yes it has a little more torque than stock between 2500-300rpm but it loses out everywhere else at the gain of some bhp right at the top or the rev range. Pointless unless you're on a circuit where you're at 7k all day long. For hillclimbs & sprints...
I don't know anyone that's run one but agree they look decent and if work well, would be a nice option vs a PMS.
My reservations would come from their previous history with parts/quality/support etc. They're not based in the UK either, so if you have any agro, its not like you can take it there...
I here ya mate and agree.
As said, it was fresh, untouched snow, less than 5 hours old, not a foot of hard pack that had been sitting there for weeks on end. I could have blown it off with an airline. lol
It was only going one way, off the rear of the car in a light mist, which as you can see...
At before 6 in the morning, why would I take it off? It’s not coming forward is it and living in the arsehole of nowhere, it’s wasn’t affecting anyone else. 🤣🤣
Mines on 132k miles now. Most of it is less than a year old though.:)
Condition and history are everything on these. Miles only matter if you're putting it in a bubble to appreciate.
Weird one, but I had to take some pics.
This started out as 3” of soft untouched snow before leaving home, 25 miles later.
Anyone racing a Clio, this is how the air path moves over the top of a standard Clio with a Cup spoiler.
Interesting to see it hugs the body at the screen tips, mostly...
Second time ownership of mine and used as a daily with me for 7 years.
Frankly, there’s nothing this side of £20k I’d enjoy driving more every day. Yes there’s MUCH better out there in terms of luxury, build quality and creature comforts. Faster, more reliable blah blah.
For me, they’re pennies...
I love snow more than anyone else I know when I can be in the mountains playing. But salty snow on the Clio gives me nightmares.
I think the neighbours are getting close to calling in the men in coats! 😅
