I agree, but I've never got in an r26 and thought 'I need this' the way I did with a 250/275 or a 197/200.
20k in a track car is mental lol!
I am drawn to the lazy appeal of a turbo mind.
Guilty.
And Hero lol
Don't talk to me about megs, I've had this open in my browser for over a week just looking at it lol

The want for one of those...
As if you can get headlights from Ecp
If you find someone with a clip, they might be able to turn the cornering lights on for you.
They were a bit of a novelty at first but I miss them when I'm not driving the Clio
Partly thinking out loud here and I've been trying to put off posting this, but the more I think about it, the less I think the 197/200 works as a daily driver.
Think for a second that you're not an enthusiast... Or even that you're not in the mood to drive the car like a massive yob (for a...
Honestly, it looks like an alrightly modified teenagers car with a front end respray, awful black badges and badmanz alloys.
The advert looks like it's not been written by a mong apart from "not to be mistaken with the cup version which has far inferior features"
Id wash it first to make sure it's not picked up any crap in three days. You don't want to be dragging crap around under the polishing pad.
As long as you clean the pads, they should last ages. I had a year and a half out of my pads with fairly regular/heavy use
They're holograms left by the polisher by not buffing out your own marks.
Your steps are right up to the end
"My steps for application are speed 2 to put it all in on 2 passes, then speed 3/4 to work it in nice for another 2 passes then 5/6 speed working til it's pretty much gone for 2 passes"...
Although I'm not a photographer, I'd say straightening the photos would be a good place to start.
Horizons on the piss don't look good.
Although they all have the same gradient which mustn't have been easy to achieve.
Rule of thirds and golden mean etc for composure.
Photography jargon.
Giving it a good decontamination and cleanse* will bring a lot more depth and gloss out in the paint too. Then a wax/sealant to protect and accentuate the finish.

It only really happens in the high revs, how bad is the crunch? I've heard of people running them for years with a little crunch with no problems.
Learn to heel and toe now before it gets worse
Win. Great spec too
I really really want a mk3 Meg at some point.
I know exactly what you mean about it feeling just like a 197, you hardly feel like you're in a different car when you're pressing on.
No bother :) glad to help

Hi and welcome :)
Good tyres, brakes and suspension are all you need.
Have a search on here for coilovers and tyres and speak to @George@RTR_Parts for brakes.
These are very capable as standard and fairly potent when lightly modified.
I used a bit of plastidip at work to see what it was like.
Would not trust on bodywork.
That said, I put it on an awfully rough door (many poor coats of spray paint) so if you do use it, I'd make sure the paint was immaculate first.
I thought my girlfriend bent my phone by sitting on my lap earlier... She's not a heffer, honest.
Can confirm these don't bend.
Does anyone know how to get the photostream back on my phone? iCloud and whatnot are all switched on.
