They do hide their weight very well, I've not driven it on "normal" tyres though just R tyres so hopefully doesn't annoy me to much and makes me buy some more wheels [emoji1787]
Need to concentrate with the poverty gearbox lol
Knockhill on Thurs, keen to see how it goes on trsck with its updates as on the rosd it was a big difference
I can't remember what the full code is for them in the Megane, PK04-18 and - 19 IIRC for thr lad and non lsd box?
Bearings are w**k in them though, Loads of guys having to replace boxes or rebuild. Seemed to be a bad batch in some of the newer face-lift cars as well
It was built well over 10 years ago as a drift car [emoji23] he was one of the first original drifters around tbf, He's well aware it looks gash and he can't wait to bin off the s**t kit etc now
Has a Tomei stroked CA in it that's been solid for a long time as well haha, but the drift scene has...
MK3 Meg rods seem to be very reliable at 350lbsft and pistons are good for upto 500hp, Some fancy term for the pistons that the name escapes me, Hyper something maybe
Yep, the only real "traffic" was between Stirling and Ft William on the first day and even that wasn't much really. Even the A9 isn't hugely busy and I drive that everyday
Would of been the cossie, runs stupidly rich [emoji1787]
I'd recommend booking in advance for any accommodation, loads of places are well booked up and some havnt even reopened
Depends what your after? Tourist stuff or just drives
Loads of decent places in Ullapool for eating, we stayed in Bungalow500 which I would recommend to anyone and we will probably go back again
Tbf I've done it in the daily with 75hp [emoji23]
Doing it over more days is a good idea though. I only really seen what views I had out the windscreen when pushing on so missed out a lot this trip
Had a quick chat with a few boys, One in a 275 Cup-S and the other a GT86 they were loving it as well. Never caught them as we ended up heading towards Achmelvich beach for a stop before heading back to the digs in Ullapool

Breakfast time for some fuel for myself followed by a quick stop at the only Super Unleaded for miles round to fuel the cars before setting off on todays route.

We were going to go clockwise today but...
From here we dropped back down the Glen for a quick Fuel stop as I know the A832 from Kinlochewe that goes round the coast through Gairloch, Poolewe then out towards Dundonnell and passing the Corrieshalloch Gorge gets really fast, Couple small sections of Single track road on that loop but the...
Leaving the village we headed up along the coastal route, Squeezed by the local Hairy coos that like to use the road as a bed and a quick stop for some photos looking back down and over to Skye and the Cuillins

Weather wasn't great as we headed up the pass and the Cyclists doing 1mph didn't help the run up. Although I've always said the road up the pass isn't that good really. You do that for the experience and views over the actual driving. Coastal road is a far nicer driving road and once you get to...
Thought I'd stick a thread up with some details and photos as I kept banging on about it. Didn't actually take that many photos in the end and still have to trawl through the GoPro and Drone videos
This originally started out as a KH trackway with a couple days blast further North as a...
You've got the wrong helmet /size if it gives you headaches tbf, I went to a full face as needed a new one for HANS and can wear it for pretty much hours on end without issues
Yeah that's fair, AP seem to cater to a certain type of client, have you seen their Megane splitter [emoji1787]
Martin is another of the good ones to deal with, If there's any possibility he'll sort it out.
