ive got R888's on the trophy and £15 a tyre budgets on the DCI.
i get to work safely no matter what car i drive, yet im probably cornering 3 times slower in the dci and its moving about more! just need to adjust your driving to the conditions/grip available
completely disagree with that, i wouldnt spend £600 on r888 on my dci as i dont need that level of grip but on a 172/182 i dont see why anyone would want to save money by not having the best tyres they could buy. Unless they drove it purely because they liked the colour
"why do you keep an old clio in the garage, take it out, wash it and put it back in?"
"thought you were into cars? if so why do you drive that old thing?" - becoz DCI!
fair points tbf...
people keep saying they are to big and heavy? I thought it was the same size but lighter than the mk3???
i love our mk4 dci90 would like to try one of these my only problem is the quite honestly unacceptable sound quality from the stereo!!!
my car came with a spare pair of the renaultsport stickers but in 2 minds about sticking them on! Ive got a pair of the new ones from the trophy owners club too so I'll probably use them
they look brilliant didn't realise BG would blast and have them coated I spent ages rubbing mine down the other day so I can paint them after they come back from refurb but ill just get them to coat them! got a fresh set of stickers too! gonna stick a new set of hubs on it since everything else...
yeah frazers one, first gear it was obviously no good, 2nd gear sink the boot in the dry it would put power down pretty well although still rip its tyres, but if you were careful and progressive with the power it was fine! mighty fast though lol
yeah its my mate colin that owns it, hes painted SWR's escort cossie and their Accord touring car
saw a serious amount of work go into getting this all fitted straight and perfect too!
hes doing the front end on my trophy this winter and sorting out all the pink bits!
glad to hear your enjoying it. I quite fancied one after seeing superchips doing a 240bhp map for them! although we currently have a DCI90 Dynamique for the mrs and im not sure on it yet, had a few issues will see how they iron out!
As mentioned above I use Progrip in Larbert for all my alignment and servicing (on the cars I care about history, so don't do it myself lol) - Hes started doing mapping now with a franchise so going to get one of my DCIs done this week and see how it goes!
Used SWR for belts, although I just...
no headlight washers, no xenons and id bet £100 no arch liners either, thats definitely had a front end bang!
od tyre wear too id be getting that on a hunter machine to check if its had a detour off road and bent somthing
