Well in that case I'd recommend supercharged without doubt. I've had a lot of turbo cars and one supercharged mini Cooper s. Power delivery is great with supercharger and has an amazing addictive whine sound
If you have limited driving experience supercharged lot better
Being belt driven I'd say it's very linear. Not much adjustment. Maybe I'm wrong.
I know what you mean, I wanted aggressive delivery too, then was imagining agressive delivery mid corner in a rwd car on a dewy Sunday morning. :eek: could get caught out.
Then again with a small turbo and...
Nice new pics! Looks amazing.
When I was looking into boosting my mx5, I would have gone for supercharged. Supercharger in your would be good due to weight, with its smoother delivery. Turbo could be bit harsh coming on boost in a light rwd car like yours.
I'm sure you'd still have more than...
My first go with my new Das6 pro. After some nighttime rain, I woke up to this.
Finished with 1 layer of just basic Mer finishing wax... will finish the bottle before buying more wax.
Sounds great to me. I had a mk2.5 mx5 with that engine in and it's not too shabby! And your car would be much lighter than a mx5 too. It would be quick enough I'd say! What's it weigh roughly?
Supercharging would really make it fly, I was going to supercharge mine but sold it instead, have the...
That looks a fun bit of kit Is that an 1.8 mx5 engine? Engine bay looks lovely. Like it a lot. :cool: Would love a kit car.
Think my s2000 is the nearest I'll get to one of these for a good while yet.
Omg. That garage is well dodgy. Always sells sporty sorts of cars to lure in young lads. VXRs ST etc. I've been to view a few cars and test driven a few there. All have been tatty and mistreated with parts missing. E.g., badges, glove box front missing, scrapped alloys, broken and cracked...
Haven't noticed really.
I can get genuine ren one from Adam Renault for 163.
Not sure what to do. Renparts 2ND hand for 50. Refurbished for 95. Or new Renault for 160.....
Hmmmm
Thanks for info. Oils on side of engine where the pumps situated. Belt looks to be free of oil.
Garage have had a look today and said leaks coming from pump itself. May be the shaft seal same as your mates.
Going to fit new pump and belt. Gonna end up costing about 230. Plus it's due a...
Power steering failed on way home. Just a few miles from home luckily.
Could smell oil and thought was someone else as you usually do, until I was only car on road and realised it must be me! :eek:
Steering started to feel odd, then just as I turned sharp bend into my street the steering...
After driving through some flood water/puddles I noticed this hanging down from behind bumper.
No idea what is is and haven't been able to get under car to inspect yet.
Anyone know what it is? Doesn't look important really.
Good thread. Just had a read through.
Looks lovely. What sort of mileage is it on? Always loved these. Used to have a mk1 focus years ago, loved it and always wanted the RS. Still want an RS.
Nexus 5 is good. My wife has one. Battery is nowhere near as good as my LG g2 though. I'd highly recommend g2. Cameras amazing!
Do prefer feel of nexus 5. Has nice soft feel shell. If your buying outright they sell for 300. Which is a bargain!
I used to have the Astra VXR washed by local poles. Im never taking a car to them again.
The t film remover they spray on is toxic. When I finally got round to giving it a proper wash n polish myself after a few months of them cleaning it I was shocked....
I couldn't even apply polish to...
Cheers for the invite. Im hoping to be at download that weekend too. Will be my first festival :)
If I can get any mates to come that is.... I won't be going on my own :p
Is that the pioneer x6600 by any chance? I've just ordered one for my Clio. Any good? Looks nice.
Like the CS stickers! Good choice. Can you upload a pic of the full rear of your car? As I'm looking to fit Rs200 badge soon and don't know wether to leave Clio badge and fit the RS as you have...
