It handles terrible!!
A corner i can normally take at 60 on the H&R's saw me under steering at about 50!
But, until it gets set up properly I will drive low and slow!!
Wish I could keep the lowness and the handling, but the car is gonna be used on track so I know which is more important!!
Was down for it, but going to Amsterdam now instead!!
Although I might come up first thing in the morning, I don't fly until 2pm and have some running around to do, what time are people going there?
Finally, some slack!
Right, the car is low as fook, because i can.
It will be set up by Powerstation, full geo and corner weighting in the next few weeks. I'll tell Curtis I want it as low as poss but the handling to be spot on, as said before I know I will have to compromise on the ride height, but for now it...
Can you not read?!
Look back about how I commented on going to Powerstation in the very near future, then edit your post so you look less foolish!
Too low?! There is about 120mm of thread still to play with the on the rears to go lower!!
Baggers, it will be set up to handle as good as possible, the lowness is an awesome addition to that though!
Got the solid top mounts on too, seems to have very good initial turn in.
Currently running max soft at the front and 8 clicks on the rear, need to have a good play about and see how...
It hasnt been set up yet obviously, will be going to powerstation once I have decided if I want the stiffer spring option or not.
I want it as low as possible but to handle mint, so will probably have to compromise on the height a bit, but admit that it looks mint damn you!
Will do, I'll be...
Nope no knocking...yet!
Lambda is in, light is still on but smells less of fuel from the exhaust fumes, economy seems back to normal, not had limp mode since either so I'm hoping that should be sorted!
Everyone excuse the dirt too, was clean before I went to Birchdown!!
Fitted my AST's today, set them a bit low at first....!
The rear arches were supported by the tyres, wouldnt even move!!
Lifted it up a bit and went for a quick drive around the block:
jack wouldnt go under even on a 2" block of timber under the wheel!!
Got a bit more sensible...
Handling is amazing too, really planted and solid but comfy.
I'm not sure how loud it would be with the cat in....
Won't be a daily driver as of tuesday though so not overly fussed...
Ah right, much firmer once you give it some, and once theys ettle it will sit perfect.
Yeah at full revs it's pretty insane!
Did a tunnel run earlier and scared myself, and i was expecting it!!
Not too sure, he's only been on a few times. His car is awesome aint it!
Glad to hear they are all good mate.
Noticed a difference through the corners?
I used the money to brim the tank and went for a massive thrash, good times! I'm starting to warm to the exhaust a bit now!
Gray I'll take you for a spin sometime in it!
Chrispy, not stripped no, I think my head would pop!!
Its just a 182 Yozza exhaust, think its a Ktec decat, all the same though so brand doesnt really matter.
Had my car on a diagnostics yesterday, said my Pre cat lambda was mashed, just replaced it and the light is still on.
Does it need to be cleared on a machine again, or will it take a certain amount of time to turn off etc?
Nah, the economy is s**t, and i think it is causing my limp mode problems, and hopefully may fix the occasional misfire that it has!
Only fault that logged at my service today so should solve them.
I have a friendly MOT'er, no need for cats!
Think it is staying now, I'll get used to it!!
Scared a few kids when I've blipped on downshifts ;)
Whitely, can't make the RR day, going to Amsterdam with the lads on Sunday!!
Thanks Mark, looks good.
I'll be going down there to get them set up once I have had them on for a bit and decided on whether I need stiffer springs or not!!
I had the rear seats down on the way home and parcel shelf out to fir the exhaust and AST's in the boot, so i'm hoping now they are up and in place again it won't be so bad.
Part of me is tempted to Dynamat the boot floor!!
