Chip, I'll give you a call later, we may be changing our trip slightly now, and head down on the Friday for a few days instead, as the closed trackday only has 2 spaces left and there was 5 of us aiming to book it, Ooops!

We struck lucky last year for the trip, fingers crossed for this year aswell.

8th is the closed trackday that we are attending, traveling down on the morning of the 7th and hopefully be out on tack a little in that afternoon. Ill give you a nudge when we are there if I don't see you ;) We are taking both cars, the Clio and the Focus.

Chip buddy, mildly off topic, are you going for the Nurburg 700 on the first weekend of October atall?

It might be handy if you said the colour of the car!!

Doing well buddy, wilwoods were a great upgrade for our car aswell. I didn't have enough confidence in the standard setup even with DS2500's all round and decent fluid/lines at Combe, but the 4 pots gave me a great feedback level and even clocked up 19 laps of the ring on a closed trackday, no...

our 182 was just to be a cheap car, one that can be abused, throw anything in it aswell as the dogs, doesnt matter if it gets dirty. abused on track, abused on the road, and it just keeps going. perfect size car for the misses when im at work, and allows the better car to stay in the garage for...

They are cheap because they are flippin' ugly and can't sell them anywhere else!

Local enough for me, but trying to find out what offset they are. Ive asked but the response wasn't answering my question, doh!

If its the one I'm thinking of, it came along to the breakfast meet at the Five Bells in Chailey last weekend, it was simply gorgeous and I'm not normally keen on the V6's, but this one particular car had me converted :D

unless im being daft, i cant find them on the ECP site, even inputting the cars details :(

its only the rears that need to be changed. cheers for the reply :D

Fred, can the ABS rings be changed over from an old set of discs/bearings to a new set come replacement time? Cheers.

Lip shockers are made/manufactured by QH, so I'd imagine it's just a direct replacement from a local motor factors. Should be of a decent enough quality tho, but I'd hazard a guess that they arnt updated items.

May just be my server, can't fully open the link so I'll try again later. Is this something entering the 2012 UK TA series?

Thanks mate ;)

i know your not mate, i can see your location, i just took a chance it was you. cheapest i ever found was from Graham @ Car Part Express, hes a good guy and looks after the FRS guys

just gone past the mid 30's. 182 cup specced, all mods declared, even have the misses on the policy and shes 7 years younger than me - £430 59 plate FRS, all mods declared and running just over 400bhp - £510 4.0 Jeep cherokee, standard vehicle used for a tow vehicle, dog vehicle and general...

Cheers buddy, it's a step in the right direction ;)

H&R Springs are lovely, i found the ride and feel of them to be great on both of my old FRS's, but daftly on the second one i then changed them for the KW V3's and spent weeks trying to get them set up correctly, for a long time i felt like id stepped backwards with the cars ability and...

are all of the 15" OZ F1 wheels of the same offset? by that, i mean there wasnt different offset options across different models or years? cheers :approve:

i got my extra BHP by collecting coupons on the back of a Rice Krispies box and sending off for it. works a treat. im not going to lie tho, mines 385bhp..... because i say so, lol :eek:

Only just spotted this.How are you keeping buddy, still got it and loving it I assume? Looking as good as always ;)

Reading different posts across alot of forums I have noticed that alot of the Scottish guys tend to write 'ma' instead of 'my', and 'a' instead of 'i', along with other simple words like that. Ive politely asked why they don't spell things correctly, not to be funny towards any individual as...

Yes only the RS500 came in black, and they were all matte black wrapped.

Focus RS500 came wrapped in 3M Satin Black.

Orange was the focus ST. Focus RS came in Frozen White, Blue or the best colour being Ultimate Green ;)

This green? And satin black wheels?

I'm assuming your on the wind up?

It's a simple task to change, takes a mater of minutes (after you've allowed the battery to spend a while disconnected) The task there in is getting the dash lights turned off.
