    Just ordered some Solid top mounts

    They're fine on the road Some people say theres a bit more noise (road bangs) through the suspension when you hit bumps but I don't notice it Saying that I've got no interior and a 99db exhaust so I probably wouldn't notice it lol

    Official Brands Hatch RS day Pics

    Possibly one of the best pics of my car so far :D I love how the front tyre is barely still on the alloy lol

    MBP RAM question.

    Screws shouldn't stick out - they didn't with mine Is yours a unibody? When I put 8gb in mine it was insane - every app opens in under a second Also if you ever do any video/photo editing - 8gb is a life saver

    Just ordered some Solid top mounts

    Ditto - was one of the first to order the full kit and it's amazing. Transformed the B14 coilovers I had and the turn in of the car Also the feedback through the wheel is better Did a full day at brands hatch last month with the setup and it was absolutely spot on!

    Upgrading the 500D 'kit lens'

    Sigma are such a huge hit or miss There QA process is appauling - most of the lenses under/over focus I found out you can send them off for calibration and they come back a month later pin sharp - but it annoys me they don't do that to start with :(

    Upgrading the 500D 'kit lens'

    50mm 1.8 - move closer and further away as required ;) Honestly after you've used a canon prime lens you would take a sigma/tamron and smash it to pieces

    Official Brands Hatch RS day Pics

    Legend The video is 30mins long and I'm pretty sure youtube has a limit of 15mins - so not sure what to do with them :(

    Anyone got a Canon 7d?

    You don't need IS (it won't help) you need a tripod if you're using a zoom lens Done some video with a 50mm and it's fine. Awesome with a 28mm Anything at a distance really needs to be tripodded

    Anyone got a Canon 7d?

    You obviously haven't taken any shots at cadwell park or at the WRC The cars virtually run over your toes lol

    Just ordered some Solid top mounts

    Ditto - felt much more positive on track, better turn in, more feedback through the wheel Well worth the money

    Anyone got a Canon 7d?

    From what I've read - if your doing stuff like the DTM then DEFINITELY you'll love the 7D AF system I wouldn't keep a 50D as a second body - it's too bloody heavy and a very similar camera to the 7D You could sell it and get like a 450D or something lighter as a backup body As for the argument...

    Anyone got a Canon 7d?

    I had the 50D - and now have the 7D The AF system on it is fantastic - I did BTCC with it this year and left it pretty much in servo AF and auto select points - every single photo was in focus It's mind blowingly good The video is brilliant - and the 60fps slow motion video is awesome. I don't...

    172 Cup - Lincoln, Tritton Rd (YC52 ---)

    Dunno - that's not far from my house If I was out in the clio it would have been doing a stupid speed and being driven like a t**t. If it was - it was probably me lol

    172 Cup - Lincoln, Tritton Rd (YC52 ---)

    Mines the cup with white 2118's, buckets and a rather obvious white cage welded in lol

    You clearly did ;)

    Cup racer weight ????

    ^^ I've got the palmersport 2118's and they weigh a ton. I'm looking at selling over winter and getting Ultraleggeras

    September Photography Competition

    I spent a while thinking about it and in the end just really couldn't be bothered Busy month and an awkward subject I'll enter next months

    Cup racer weight ????

    Do you have any idea how annoying it is reading your posts? The OP asked how much cup racers weigh AND what the lightest car was on here. The replies stated how much cup racerss weigh and a few other people posted the weight of their cars YOU then started ranting about how they were dreaming...

    Cup racer weight ????

    Crikey that's impressive with the cage too I have no idea how much I removed from mine - I know i must be 80-120kg of crap came out Like I say though the 2118's weigh a ton :(
  24. Cup_Phil

    Cup racer weight ????

    That's probably about right The 172 cup is 1021kg - I've removed about 80kg from mine (and there's nothing left in it except a seat and dashboard) but then the cage add's weight back in - and the wheels aren't light :( You'd be struggling to get a 172 lower than 950ish

    Fastchip - No more Clio 2 downloads?

    When you go to add it to your cart - if you choose Clio 2 it knocks 40euros off - making it 55
  26. Cup_Phil

    why don't you like cups?

    I fail to see the point in the 182 cup The 172 cup however - easily the best RS Clio made :)

    KTEC's Cheap Coilovers, But Cheaper...

    No I know it's not a good situation to be in - but the response I got was "maybe this week or next" and in reality it was over 3 months before you had any more to sell With that sort of long-term stock outage I would have pulled it from the site. Stock levels on websites (or even just a delivery...

    KTEC's Cheap Coilovers, But Cheaper...

    This is exactly the opposite of my experience I bough a bilstein kit from kamracing on their website - it said in stock I then got an email saying it wasn't in stock and they'd let me know As I needed the kit ASAP for a track day I rang them and got a very grumpy "I'm trying to get Bilstein to...

    KTEC's Cheap Coilovers, But Cheaper...

    That's fair enough - and what I'd guessed had happened. It's preferable to have a reseller rather than deal with customers direct. I just think most of the people on here viewed you guys as the evil monster in the whole scenario lol

    KTEC's Cheap Coilovers, But Cheaper...

    I don't really want to get involved with this as I've used K-Tec in the past (including sourcing next day a Bilstein kit for me) and they've been fantastic (Sean is one of the best people i've dealt with while building my clio - couldn't have been more helpful) - so I'm not jumping on the K-Tec...
