    New Audi RS6 V10 Turbo

    Jesus. That will be insane.

    F1's or Proxie's

    Have F1s on the Clio and Toyo T1S on the NSX. The F1s are pretty good in every condition, the Toyo is good too but too much sidewall flex.

    My new carbon bonnet has arrived :D

    Not bad, subtle. Those orange side repeaters really need to be shown the door, and i would ditch those Dare V2s and get some racier looking wheels, then slam it!

    Was only trying to give advice though...i always presume people are at square one, that's all. If you haven't uprated the brakes then you should. Then think about suspension and an oil cooler. Slicks don't give any other benefit other than giving you a quicker lap time...

    But Bill you said it makes you quicker. My point is why would you want to be quicker? Who are you racing, your shadow? I know people get a kick out of beating Porsches in their souped up Clios but at the end of day it's just a trackday.

    I'm saying it's a waste of money. So you're saying more grip means you're having a better time? I'm saying having less grip will mean more fun at a slower speed. You learn more about your car and your abilities. Otherwise i don't know what you're chatting about.

    Well, modifying your car will make it quicker, but it doesn't make you quicker as a driver. It just masks the mistakes you will make. So i'd get a race instructor instead!

    The amount of grip you can generate could cause oil and petrol surge. To be honest i don't see the point. As with any modification, i would urge people to invest in themselves rather than make up for their incompetence with modifications.

    Boreing out. Need help

    Just swap the engine, Cit Ren have a 182 engine for under £500.

    Whos with Directline?

    Wonder if i could blag the Cup wheels are just alternative Renault items? :S

    Do you fit 182 Rear Discs the same as 172?

    Yep. Edde said the only difference between setup is that the discs are slightly different (same size), but they are interchangable anyway.

    Quite a lot of money for not much gain.

    Mudflaps on 182??

    Yep. And having a spanking clean car with mudflaps is a bit ironic?! They're for rally cars only. It's like having your car adorned with stickers saying 'Brembo,' 'HKS' etc. when you don't even have the bits!

    WOOHOO! look what i just got for a tenner!

    You'd have to pay me a tenner to take those ugly things.

    Whos with Directline?

    Gimps! How old are you then Browno?

    Whos with Directline?

    Do you know their attitude to modifications? I'm 21. Thanks!

    Few Bedford Autodrome pics...

    With the aftermarket diff they are very easy to get sideways, but obviously not quite as easy as a normal front engined RWD! If you watch Best Motoring that old bloke has a Type R and can drift it, all about skill i guess! I might try an import one myself, seen a couple around the £14k mark.

    New To All This

    Your biggest problem will be insurance, you'll need to find a company willing to cover modifications. You will pay big bucks for the pleasure... I'd agree with getting clear bulbs, and if it is an older Dynamique, colour code it perhaps. You could be cheeky and get lowering springs and remove...

    Any Turini owners got spacers?

    Spacers are here: http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/products/ProductDetail.asp?cls=ROAD&pcode=EIBE90-1-05-003

    Couple of moody Megane pics....

    Otherwise become a certified CS geek and get spotlights and reflection boards out ;)

    Couple of moody Megane pics....

    What sort of camera is it? You should be able to change the level of flash. Sometimes i take two same shots with different exposures and overlay them in Photo Shop. An extreme example (cars much darker and track much lighter):

    Mudflaps on 182??

    Get some, i could do with a laugh.

    trophy suspension - how much?

    The suspension travel is what makes the Clios so fun and playful, same with the 197.
  25. Englebert

    Off with the old, erm off to the new

    Better

    dished wheels. . .

    13x5.5 inch and ET36 is about as euro as the UK currency ;)
