My old clio was 6.7 secs on average 0-60 and 5.7 secs 0-60 after I fitted itb's - this was on a G-tec performance meter, so probably not hugely accurate, but a good improvement non the less

that is top of my list at the mo actually lol hmmm interesting, cheers for the input :) for the record the only car iv found ebc stuff to work on well was one of my classic minis

What discs do you use out of interest?

Agreed Danny, I have to say I prefere grooved over drilled, though a standard set will be going on the back now, iv never felt the need to go uprated on the back :)

Small update, got my wheels on :) Still a bit high at the back, but it has helper blacks on the rear springs, so need to pop them out and have a look at some point Knew about one crack, but didn't know about the other! Nice camber at the front now, not over the top:

Yeah not worried mate, will get them changed over next week :) Glad to here you are all ready to go!

Hey Mick! You ready for the move yet? Next job on the list, new rear discs - was checking the car over today and found one of the disks has cracked from middle to edge! Car must definately been driven how it was supposed to ;)

Yeah it's about time i pop back up to see him - wonder if we will randomly end up there at the same time again lol

Lol you like them im guessing then dude? (I got your text back but i didnt want to reply and bother on your hols - i didnt realise dude sorry! PM'd x )

It's your money wasted at the end of the day matey, just remember it will cost more than a genuine RS to insure (classed as modified) and will be worth less when you come to sell.

To be honest dude it would be so much cheaper to buy a CS - they are very affordable now.just trying to help :)

Cheers mate, info appreciated :)

Lol.Dude, speedo accuracy usually decreases with speed, so at 40mph being 3mph out, at 100mph it will be about 7mph out, so at 120mph id imagine around 10mph out.Being 3mph out at 40mph will not give the same degree of inacuracy at higher speeds just so ya know :)

^^ Ben will find it :) if it's any help I would have suggested loom damage - Mk5 Golfs can suffer something along the same lines

117 gps or on the speedo?

To be done properly you would be into 5 figures. Thing you are not looking at though is the structural integrity of the car - it would be a pig to drive, and imo a waste of money - id rather have a 500bhp Evo which would be just as quick but handle 100x better and be a lot more fun :)

lol bear in mind how accurate you HAVE to be when mapping, how much of a skill it is, letting just anyone map your car is madness mate! Paul is renound as one of the best Renault tuners in the country and has the most knowledge and research of the Seimens ECU - to have the best work on the...

lol it's not that far!

No one better with the standard ECU :)

its also an 8 hour trip for me dude but as i have had first hand experience with RS Tuning i can tell you its worth it! iv fact iv done the trip twice! lol

Id be looking at wishbone bushes mate, thats what it was when mine was doing that

RS Tuning is in Leeds mate and worth the trip - Paul knows the standard Siemens ECU inside and out

^^^ go see RS Tuning! (Hey Paul :) )

it can be tough to route correctly - the first few i changed i found i had to adjust and play around to get them routed right

I was just about to say it must be non genuine, or a routing problem

It was mapped when the cams were fitted, by Henk@ fastchip - one of his custom maps where you record a run through a gear, then e-mail him and he tweaks the map I believe.

Cheers Steve, thats the only thing at the moment, it pulls well but flat at lower revs - im thinking a remap is needed

We get this alot, people coming in asking us to replace air mass meters then complaining when it doesn't fix the fault - 'well thats what the fault code reader said' - oh that makes my working life such a pain lol, you imply cannot explain to a retail customer that something else may be bringing...

People often wonder why we charge for fault finding at work (VW) but as Mick says we have paid out near £9k each for our test computers,(we have 4) plus the licences for updates etc - we find the fault first time but we need to pay for these machines some how
