More upgrades incoming thanks to @Danith . He is selling up and going back to a boring German car so removed some bits from his car (y)
Nealy new Brembos and pms brackets, some budget pads but also some Mintex m1166 pads. Also included are some braided brake lines. A red RS start/stop button...
Been a while since CSF and only just put some of the in car stuff on youtube. I forgot to swap batteries later in the day when id had a few hours out. @Big Steve - Raider in the pax seat near the end with a brief bit of @andybond too
Similar, these are threaded on the part that goes through the hub. Some places list the wrong ones....... I have 2 that I think are space ones here now. With a notch in the side?
I've seen the ones that look like a big G clamp, I'd be tempted if I was doing them regularly.
Just for @andybond .....
Finally got around to fitting the bottom ball joint. Decided to do it the driveway built way and with as little effort and removal of parts as I could. So here's the method if you don't want to remove the complete wishbone. To get the wishbone out you need to drop the...
buy a meg 2 and map it to 270 (maybe a bit long in the tooth now) or buy a meg 3 and sit at 300 ish (y)
Both of you options are at wildly different ends of a cost spectrum tbh.
Right where did we get too? so oil and filter were swapped out a few days before CSF. Car was driven there, beat and driven home with no issues at all. Temps were great though if I'm planning on doing more track days I should try and get some more camber dialled in up front. I modded the strut...
you were flying out there, went very well.
Im just starting to get used to the mk4 platform on track and absolutely loving it, CSF was the first time ive tried it with all the aids turned off
Epic Day, epic people, Big thanks from myself and all of TurboRenault.co.uk
Was good to meet everyone, even those who's names name I can never remember :ROFLMAO: (BIG NAME TAGS DEFO NEEDED)
Despite the drive it was the best event I've been too yet. Friendly, organised and super chill with...
Got mine out of the bin from work, got 2 actually. Dell precision 7740 i7 🤷♂️. Slapped a battery in one and 64gb of ram, run VSDC free. Seems ok. My other laptop just cooks itself when I try doing anything video related.
Edit scrap that, just checked ebay
I am now tempted to replace both wishbones completely (all new rubbers and joints then) just so its all fresh (y) at 106k I'm sure they are still the factory fit parts, that said, they look in great condition if so.
Picked up and fitted the track rod end today, never in my life have I had it so easy. Cracked off the locknut and the old one just span off by hand. Fitted the new one then wobbled everything again. I thought I heard the same knocking noise!!!! Was adamant it was coming from the the ball joint...
