I love the thing, but it's for different reasons than the 182. It's a better car 95% of the time. But, for those times when you're on a great b-road, it's less fun. It's more stable/composed, so you can't get it moving around in the same way as a 182.
Yes and no! It's so good in so many ways, but compared to older/lighter/cars made of tin foil and garlic, it's not as much fun. Had a blast in a cup, 100% glad I didn't go for a cup. Shame Renault don't offer what I feel would be the optimum setup, non-cup chassis with the quicker cup steering rack.
You really wouldn't! I ran a race but with the cat left in, at motorway speeds was less boomy/drone than a normal (ie not supersports) ktec stealth. I did loads of miles with the rear stripped, was quiet enough to use bluetooth wiithout any issues@80mph.
Not true in my experience. Try some properly tested and engineered stuff. I've been in a few cars on kw v3's. On the meg 225 they rode better than a standard 225cup, and handled brilliantly. Ditto the v2's on mine, rode better than a 182 on eibachs and it's the best handling clio I've ever...
I've just had a text from a mate in the states, can pick up a new alpine headunit uber cheap. Will it work over here? Ie are the connections all the same?
I don't agree! There's no reason why you should get more understeer, especially if you manage pressures and know how to drive the thing. For me trackdays are about fun, not ultimate speed. R888's offer more grip, which wears suspension parts and brakes far more quickly, and doesn't really make...
Yes, they work well tbh. The reason I like the rs2 though, is that it's a road biased compound, but the still sidewall gives you a much more responsive feel without the over-grippy feeling of a true track tyre. All road tyres will go off imo, the RS2 works well when hot and cold.
t1r's. The pe2 doesn't go well when hot (in my experience), only issue with the toyo is the soft sidewall. I'd probably stick the toyo on front, pe2 on the back, and replace with hankook rs2 when they wear out.
I've got both on my iPhone. I was a massive copilot fan, but since getting tomtom it's been deleted. Tomtom is massively, massively better in a few respects. Hd traffic is way ahead of the copilot system. Very accurate and automatically offers a quicker alternate route if possible.
