Indeed Chris! Running 2118s with an et43 offset and 25mm spacers each side on the front, I reckon you'd be alright with the Ultras if your not mega low and run similar camber to mine (3 degrees negative). A little 'modifying' of the archs if not wouldnt be too hard! :)
Currently got FK...
Dodson - Front cambers set to 3 degrees of negative, cut the bumper to be different and not make it like a parachute aerowise. Will make air pass under the car a little better.
Ali - Nope havent lost any of the induction note, if anything the air filter in an almost enclosed heatshield has made the induction noise a little louder by reverberating in that area if that makes sense.
No there's no back to back figures for it, true you would still get cool air through the grills but also all the heat from the engine/exhaust manifold. The heatshield gets air fed from below the passenger light/bumper area. It probably doesnt make that much difference but some gain is better...
Extended runner length by 50mm Dan, given more peak power and a good chunk of mid to high rpm torque also.
Not sure what you mean, if you talking about the heatshield then it just has a Pipercross air filter with a heatshield around it for cooler air inlet temperatures.
Its a longlife system Naith, little bit rough round the edges but after a few trips back to get it sorted it does teh job nicely!
Not sure whether its still a prototype or not tbh, think quite a bit of people were put off by the extra money for not a massive gain. Only 3bhp more but an extra...
So another update and probably the last one for the year.
Finished the first year of trackdays in the Cup doing 3 full openpit trackdays and 2 track sessions at car shows, here's a few pictures from this year...
This has definately giving me the bug so next year i've...
Few average pictures with the new coilovers/spacers etc etc. Also could apply for dirty car comp as well! ;)
Also a few of the RS-2 Xtra, still think im the only one in existance that has the Xtra now! :cool:
Project thread link also -...
Should of sold it to that company for £4500! As everyone has said, just get some Cup replacment parts and then flog it on to that stupid company that'll pay over the odds for it! Hell I might offer them my car!
They dont seem that savage really, obviously you wound run them like that on a trackcar but as Englebert said any advantage...
Clio Cup video looks savage!
So, drove past this earlier.... The car itself didnt look too bad, will have to arrange a actual viewing though. Though beside it was something rather 'choice', Mk2 clio with a backbox mounted on the outside rear bumper sideways. :dead:
So can imagine the Mk1 may need a little love!
I dont believe you that you'll turn this into a trackcar, you've been saying this for as long as i've been n CS! ;)
Please prove me wrong though and come on some trackdays with everyone!
I've found with the Whiteline its made the car a litte more lively, but only in terms of better turn in and more adjustability. I ran it on hard with my Vmaxx coilovers and its was vastly better than without it! Really depends on your driving style as to how much oversteer you'll get, if your a...
