I'd make a start by posting in the correct section. Thanks in advance :)

Yep. Buy coil overs all round. If it's a dedicated track car, you'll want coilies. Depending on budget, I'd recommend ASTs, followed by Bilsteins for a lower budget. In terms of track car mods, I'd follow this order; Brakes Tyres Suspension / handling Tuition / practice LSD Power

Looks great. I miss my old JCW. Great fun. Although the cover they put on it makes it look like a rear view of the lower half of one of these.

Service (oils, filters etc) New boost pipes, and relocate one to stop it rubbing. Contemplating full strip, interior paint then put back together.

Moved this into the detailing thread so that the buffty boys can help bud 😂 I'm sure Ant would love to get his hands on the Vitesse. @Scrooge

Ha! If you still have it..... I may fit it, need to see how it would work with the charger my old fruit. I'll be up your way wkd of the 9th Oct. You about?

As said, you can run without one quite happily, but it does help protection in a front end smash. If you run the Charger kit I have, you can't run one because of the boost hosing position. I try to tell myself that crashing is a bad idea, fuel rail guard or no fuel rail guard.

Sterling work! Have fun! I have an epas set up that may be up for sale soon. Discount offer potential for you :)

Ooft. Sterling work sir.

I couldn't get them under 15" OZ F1s unless running crazy spacers and machining to what I view an unacceptable tolerance on the calipers. As per @Jamie86 link above, I did manage to get them under other 15inch wheels.

Is swapping the console out an easy enough job bud?

That's a funny looking white. 😂

Fanks. E46 pauper 😂

I'd disagree with a supercharger at 250bhp'ish. It's torque that kills boxes and the turbo delivery of power on a standard box / engine will give trouble. I've done a year with mine, about 4k and numerous track days and had zero issues.

Whole unit looks like this mate; I think I just need one of the window buttons. Will check on weds with the Budgie..... If you have one, i'd be very grateful, in London on Friday if you're about for a brief catch up?

I'll nick one from @Rob zed 😂

Yarp. Fanks x @Scrooge - I can feel the button "switch" is broken. I.e. The plastic lever.

I knew there was a reason I liked you. It certainly wasn't for your good looks or sharp wit. X

@Rob @Scrooge @Sir_Dave @Daniel Hoping you may know the electric window answer above.

So, a few niggles appeared this weekend. First up, seems the drivers window button has broken, meaning I can get the window down but not up. After much faffing, I got it up. Anyone know if I can swap the individual button or if it needs a new "console"? Second, the repeater for the indicator...

Great photo, glad it ran well :)

Another couple of reminders to me as to why I always insure mine on track. Feel for the two guys, hope they're both ok.

Bendy wheel is comedy gold. I would. ;)

Mines 250bhp and 220lb ft supercharged. If you want outright 0-60 times I'd recommend turbo'd. Not timed 0-60, but it isn't a slouch by any means.

Lovely car. :)

Snapped back almost as effectively as @Rob 's hats 😂

14 mins or so in. The product of not going in to change tyres when it started raining at Anglesey. Was doing about 85/90ish. 😂

Roof scoop looks great. Flappy bonnet... "Nom, nom, nom"... 😂

It's these guys I believe; http://www.cagedlaser.com/

Caged themselves are probably cheaper. I have the 6 point Caged cage and it is a brilliant piece of kit.
