I'm surprised more people haven't commented on this, given Mark's experience. I'd certainly like to know the results of the testing too. An awful lot of BS around when it comes to springs and dampers, so would be nice to see some data as it's an area that people often overlook.
I can't comment...
It's all relative. £35k is nothing to a lot of people.
Plenty of ways to get into motorsport for semi sensible money. I always thought the ktec championship looked a bit expensive. One make series which use control parts always risk being like that though. The production class in the Tricolor...
Apple have always been about clever marketing and pushing people into expensive upgrades. This is just another example of that.
It amazes me that they're as popular as they are to be honest. Just demonstrates the power of marketing. I doubt this story will have much impact on them.
I bought one in the group buy and had no problems. Ended up selling it on though, as my plans changed. It's not the cheapest thing in the world but, given the fact it's made in relatively small numbers, it's no great surprise.
Only done a few miles so far but it doesn't seem to have made a difference. I have heard of people having problems on VXRs but there are a few Meganes running like this and they seem to be ok. I'll see how it goes though.
I feel it's time for me to get involved in this topic. I stopped by a valeting/paint renovation type place to chat to them about my Megane 265 and he gave me a couple of rough prices. I'm looking to have the car given a going over as the paint is a bit dull and swirly, then some form of...
Surprised you have had trouble with Torques as they have helped me no end. Have you messaged them through eBay or emailed them directly? I tend to go direct as they usually respond more quickly.
Yeah would appreciate the numbers for those. I like a nicely executed door pull!
Interesting to know about the paint. I did my Escort with a gun in white. It's fairly durable, but I hate using a compressor and white is a nightmare to keep clean, so interested in other options for my next...
Never seen this before! Nice build, all very well thought out. Couple of questions though...
What door pulls are you using and what are the surrounds from? They look quite neat.
How did you get on with this paint? Does it go on ok and how durable is it? Does it resist scratches and stains...
Looks great with the ride height sorted and the splitter on. Shame there is no video.
I suspect I have missed this, but what's it going to be used for?
If this is the case (if being the operative word of course), then it will soon be solved. It may well be that they can just revise the head machining process to leave a bit more material in place. At worst, a revision to the block/head casting will almost certainly be possible and that will make...
Yeah a lot of them have the time to do the content because they don't need a proper job. I see that a lot in car journalism too. A lot of them have money anyway so can spend their time making YouTube videos.
It's frightening really, especially given the crap some of them post 😂
How do you even go about setting up? Got any useful links? Would be interested to read them.
