I'm sure autocar said that they had a Veyron at 100-0 in 3.4 seconds and a Clio 172 in 3.9 which is pretty astonishing?
edit: Can compare the results here. The last bit is obviously the braking e.g 911 Turbo takes 4.25

Very true.
Just re read they don't fit under 15's anyway :(
Was going to give them a try in a few months if I've got the money for brackets but 15's > fancy brakes.
Can anyone that has the brembo kit measure up so we know what sort of offset is needed.
I've got a friend with a set of calipers that I can have off him when I next see him but don't want to have to run massive spacers to clear them, iirc my offset is about et37.
Nice one Dave :) That's probably partly my fault as I sent the wrong date at first and sent a second message to change it.
I'm hoping I'll have my car for this one, really hoping.
I had to buy a battery the other week :(
I'm sure you'd rather hear that you don't need one but if you do the battery I bought was a Bosch S5, really highly rated but expensive. However I found it on ebay (brand new from a shop on there)for £56 delivered. Seller was brilliant too.
Good going Ash, always makes me smile seeing things going right for you.
I'm literally gobsmacked at how much better the wiring is now when compared to that done by a professional *ahem* motorsport company.
I'm not sure if the biggest improvement in this thread is the car or yourself?
Seems...
Fair play mate, I was just curious if the lip Nissan said they had included on the alloy was overkill or not. If it's a tried and tested alloy then you can't say fairer than that :)
They look absolutely awesome.
I remember on TopGear something along the lines of the alloys on a GTR being designed with a special rim to hold the tyre on during hard cornering. Is that not a concern with the new alloys or do you not intend to track it etc?
Hopefully be a good turnout.
Dave has said it's sometimes busy so I'll ring up and reserve a table closer to the date if people confirm attendance. I'll reserve a few extra for the people that decide last minute too
Nice one, be good to see you. It's been a while.
By the way, save me texting you our kitchen is arriving in about 3 weeks. Can let you know when soon but are you still up for the work?

Re: SUPER 1600 REPLICA based on 172, CLIO WILLIAMS Tribute, CLIO WILLIAMS IV (Austra
This project is stunning and the reate of progress is just astonishing considering you seem to be doing it in your spare time.
Hard to believe little over a month ago it was a standard flame red 172.
