It is finished :)
The Motons will be coming off for a rebuild soon but thats just general maintenance , apart from that I plan on just enjoying it.
Since the weather is nice its back on the black wheels with Cup tyres, as the contis can struggle for grip in 2nd.
Well picked the car up from nine excellence today after its 9e30 conversion. All i can say is WOW .
The car is totally different from the previous K24 set up ,with the power delivery now being so smooth .
The 500 mile drive home had a mix of weather from sun to tropical style downpours so...
Old vs new
New discs and pads all round
New wheels on and fogs removed will be getting ducted for brake cooling.
Have my first trackway in this car booked for tomorrow night hope it stays dry so I can get the track wheels on with A048's
Well somehow ended up going online to buy disks and pads for a trackday , and ended up with a short shift and larger lower boost pipework as well 😂 need to do as much as possible to keep up with the clios on track.
Few changes on this recently , i have removed the side skirt splitters as after fitting some B14 coilovers they made getting even a low jack in a bit of a pain.
I have sold the K sport brakes and went back to standard for now but these will be getting uprated disks and pads soon, still havent...
I run 315's on the LM's and 305's on the ch-r's but the cups are like a lot of track type tyres and are actually wider than the measurements suggest.
Scary thing is it already use to try and spin up in 2nd and 3rd in the wet , and after these mods I could have upto an extra 100bhp lol
I love the look of the forrest green GT2 , very rare car :cool:
Dropped my car off in Chorley on Thursday 500 mile drive down and was actually surprised how comfy the fixed back seats were , even more shocked that it did 31mpg on the trip.
Was good to get a look around some of the other cars...
Yip the turbos had the same wheel as the C4's but were lighter hollow spokes.
The gt2 had the same style as well but were a 12" wide rear and were solid spoke.
I think the new wheel will grow on me , just use to seeing it on the LM's.
The LM's will be going back on justnow as new Cup tyres and wet greasy roads don't mix, get wheel spin at 2500 rpm in 3rd as soon as it comes on boost.
Thanks i do like them from a side profile but from the front they stick out s little too much.
Still not done any track days in this yet but it's been a ideal daily , still tempted to put some BC coilovers on it to smooth out the ride and allow adjustability for track.
