Properly jealous! How did you get your hands on 2 sets of Superleggeras, I only want one set but finding it mega hard to get a set :(
Turbo looks sexual btw!
Fair enough, as said never had any problems when they were on my car. Its not like it turns it into a pig to drive, only when your on the absolute limit of the car or an idiot of a driver behind the wheel something may happen. Makes no odds anyway as Andy (the Op) has 2 more R888's that were...
Lol, because 106's/saxos are cheaper to modify! I've got the best of both worlds, i've got one of each! Though that could be worst of both worlds... lol
Remember most of the weight is over the front wheels and most of the pressure when driving hard is over the front also, I never had a problem when I had them as long as your sensible. If there was a 50/50 split in weight then i'd run similar tyres front to rear.
Wheels look great Andy, silver...
Notorious_Nick, I like it! Lol, can't even remember tbh when your fell over. You were on the floor a lot though to be fair :) Must admit feeling it today, just soo tired!
Brentacre for me, there quote with all my modifications declared was £50 cheaper than a standard insurance quote. Updating modifications is easy as well, give them a quick call and it sorted straight away.
Do it! If someone offered me a mint Williams 1 for my Cup i'd swap it all day long. So much more fun imo and it feels so much more special when you drive it! Having owned a Mk1 16v I can say that there not unreliable at all, if looked after they'll be fine.
My gosh thats awesome, the turbo looks huge! You not going to have any problem closing the bonnet as it looks like it will hit the turbo!
Fair play though on the build, would love to have a 20v Mk1!
Got the gearbox on Tuesday Tim, going to get it refrubished just to be safe! You should have seen the packageing that it turned up in :rolleyes:, just a cardboard box with a little bit of polystyrene and the box was falling apart! Wouldnt even think about purchasing anything from that Steve79...
I must admit i went for a little kickabout yesertday outside, much better I think! Though will have to do it earlier as it still gets dark around half 8!
I reckon with basic breathing mods (decat exhaust system, matched inlets, decent induction kit and a Fastchip map) with a bit of weight stripping can get you to near on 200bhp per tonne. With them modifications, mine has got me to the 180bhp mark so only need loose 100kg tops which isnt too hard.
