Funny that, I live just off the Harlestone road too.
In hind sight, if I would have known, I'd have slowed down and said Hi. I had the engine covers off so it would have all became clear to him lol
Definatly a lovely car. If I really had to play with it. . . . . Coilovers, nice set of OEM/motorsport looking wheels (I'm just not a fan of the polished M3 wheels), Rear rollcage and a nice set of buckets. Would make it a pure drivers car. . . . . . If I had the cash a HPF conversion would be epic!
Brabus must see people coming. I can't actually see how its physicaly possible to put 20K's worth of work and material into what is, by all accounts a cnc machined split rim.
Surely if the throttle is wide open but the revs are being held back by ignition cuts (like a launch control system can) it would start to produce boost?? I maybe wrong as Ive never owned a car with either.
Mas Du Clos seemed to be someones own play ground when a few of us had a track day there a couple of years ago. Was an awsome track too, miles beter than anything in the uk.
Lmao @ people slatting the driver. Seriously, its not a 200bhp jazzed up fwd clio. The bloke is throwing 1000+bhp through that thing. Its hardly going to be a pussy cat to drive. I dread to think what sort of castor/camber angles he would have to use to go through corners at that rate. Would be...
Sit right? . . . . . . these wheels are what the OEM wheel offsets were taken from to be fair and are much lighter. I would like a set of Comodora's but they are way too common now lol
I like the little Suzuki's. My missus has one of the crappy shopping cart ones (the non sport one) but in all fairness, for a 1.4 it goes like the clappers and makes good noise too. I'd really like one like yours for bombing about in.
Yeah I know but I can only put another half inch on the back at most. lol As much as I love the dub scene I'm certainly not going down the stretching tyre's route . . . . . . . . especially with the arches as dear as they are.:S
Me too in all honesty but these sort of have a little bit of Clio V6 history attatched to them which I like. My next wheels of choice after these would be a set of Rotiform concave Nue's.
After a fair amount of work carried out on them I have finally got around to fitting my new wheels. These were sourced from Renault/TWR and were used to test the V6 in its early development stages. Ive also got the other set used but I have something very different planned for those.
I do...
I was watching the US drift seires on tv the other week and it was utterly boring. This on the other hand is sooooooOOOOO much better. I don't know what it is about the low budget drifting but its definatly more of a spectacle.
Use a little more imagination. Go on racecarsdirect.com and take a look through the wheel section. Some of the best wheels you will ever find lurk on there and not stupidly priced. ;)
I can see why so many people go down the Rep route but in the end its all faulse ecconomy. They really are...
