Yeah I can't wait to get it on track tbh, sprinting it this weekend at a local sprint track which will be fun as traction is questionable at times haha
Yeah he did say he was gonna book on soon with the kermit mobile
So headed off to RS tuning this morning after a night shift.
Steady drive up thanks to the 50mph average speed on the M1.
So got there and the guys were a little behind but the banter kept us entertained.
So Paul got the car on the rollers and we got the injectors swapped over and Paul set...
So at the weekend I thought I'd bang me matte black sunstrip on.
I dunno why but I like the look of these and the makes them look a little more racey ;) also I hate having sun visors down!
Here's the out come
No bubbles, creasing or swearing which judging my track record is pretty good...
Honestly mate you'll be asking yourself why you haven't done it sooner, I know I was!
You don't need to spend millions like some do to have fun, most of the people that seem to do this are to scared to use them in anger.
You'll often see the people having most the fun at track days are in the...
Yea cause your safe to take it on track, end of the day the organisers will stress how it's not a "RACE" during the briefing. It's normal fun to have a little tussle with other drivers but it's nowhere near the level you would when competing.
Majority of cars on track days are people's...
Yeah I guess it's just a case of the quality variation between them.
Paul says mine will be limited at 300lbft which will be more then enough....... For now haha
Yeah I tried to book the 6th but speccky said they were rather busy.
I've got to get there for about half 12 to bang me injectors in so he can start mapping at 1.
He says it takes a couple of hours but most people I speak to said it's much quicker
So got a few updates, been a bit lazy and only really been updating me RSmegane thread.
So first off I got round to replacing the front discs
Soon stripped the old knackers off
Gave the hub a bit of a clean
New disc in
And all went well other side and are nicely bedded in now.
If...
So little parcel arrived today. The rear brakes had really seen better days when I bought the car especially the discs anyway.
So after reading a few reviews online and speaking to some friends I bought the rear discs from MTEC performance sport brake discs.
These came with bearings and...
So earlier today I was in a bit of a hurry to get the geo done with being back at work and not knowing when is next get chance.
I usually use the assistance of @NorthloopCup or me mate Pete at centre of gravity but with me being in a hurry I didn't want to be putting folk out.
So after...
Yeah, gave it a clean this morning although after today it's a different colour!
Still can't get over how much of an improvement the smf conversion has made and how the down pipe has made the boost delivery!
Now just for for injectors and map beggining of March, will give me time to get some...
Well sorry for lack of pictures but it's been rather busy past few days with a few wedding plans and the car.
So it's finally back together, biggest issue that slowed the job up was just how poor the exhaust fitted but it's at a point where I'm happy now and just the odd tweak once it's all...
Well what a mare we had yesterday.
The car came to pieces a treat and it was safe to say the dual mass flywheel was well and truly fucked! Not even covered 50k since it was fitted by Renault under warranty and worse still two of the bolts were finger tight! Nice one Renault! Also found the...
