He’s taken some lovely period forged lightweight wheels off, and fitted some heavy cast fakes. I don’t get it.

Yeah, and have a check on the loom for it as far as you can, checking for nips or breaks.

This, they're not coded though IIRC, so you can chuck a second hand one in.

Ok, I’ll put it another way. Given that you’re in some low power NA ‘shite’, carrying speed is very important for you. [emoji16] There’s more deep red on your slower lap, indicating you scrubbed more speed. But this isn’t racing telemetry here.

EFA.

You’re getting a taste of ownership already!

Consumables are astronomical by anything you've ever even thought about before. :LOL: I use mine on track, and it'll happily do 5MPG and empty the tank 4-5 times in a day. Brakes, terrible, big brake kit a must if you go anywhere near smooth tarmac. Drivetrain, I've never ever launched mine...

Whatever it's up for, put that same amount aside again for year 1 maintenance; if you plan on actually using it.

So I put some different wheels on and hit Brands on Monday.

Most sound like wet farts.

Hero. Needs a full exhaust and a terribly mapped idle to win completely.

You can say that about a lot of things on my 'list'!

That looks lovely.

I've got an i9-7980XE here that's seen light use, I've benched it to 4.5 GHz and it's all good. CS price is 1000. (y)

It'll be s**t. They haven't made an interesting car in years. Evo X included. :D

:)

Both brilliant in their own ways. I remember the Autocar front page from the RS2 release: FASTER THAN A MCLAREN F1* *0-30mph

You can use a calculator, but AD08R are massive. Even if you placed them next to a different 195/55R15 tyre. On just lowering springs, you should be fine.

Pretty sure that's a 32 in drag.

They run out of fuel on a standard map, let alone trying to accommodate for more boost! The steering on a Corsa VXR should be enough to preclude anyone who can drive, from buying one.

Haha our driveway looked like a Luton production line too. :D

I blame my old man, countless 8v and red-top Astra GTE's, GSI3000 and Lotus Carlton's, etc when I was a youngster. Good times.

I used to quite like these when they were new, I reckon a black one wouldn't be a bad daily. The VXR was basically the same car underneath AFAIK, with a bit of work on the engine and turbo bits and pieces. I do tend to have rose-tinted specs for hot-Vauxhalls though, mostly late 80's early...

My buddy's one, when he used to drive it properly... phss-silverstone-oct-16-2 by Adam Lister, on Flickr phss-silverstone-oct-16-6 by Adam Lister, on Flickr phss-silverstone-oct-16-5 by Adam Lister, on Flickr A very special car that deserves every bit of praise.

There’s an echo. Echo. Echo.

Might even get a bit of change from 100k, maybe. This dude in Tokyo runs one as a road car (R30WRC), mega props. :love:

A mate of mine bought one at 20k. Git.

Hard to believe I sold that car 5 years ago!

2118's need spacers... Renault Clio 172 Cup by Adam Lister, on Flickr Renault Clio 172 Cup by Adam Lister, on Flickr :D

How good is the psu? If it’s at the value end of the spectrum it may well have fried the board. I had it a few weeks back with a customer who wasn’t ups’d or surge protected, a rapid on/off of power a few times within 1 second took the board clean out.
