Considering buying an exhaust....but it'a an exhaust that was fitted to a 197, but said 197 had the 200 rear bumper....
Im assuming that this will fit a 200 no problem, would I be correct?
Don't like it, you needed to stop modding a while a go!
Lose the RS stickers, they look gash and make it look dated, the rear renault diamond looks poor as well, would be better being white with a black diamond, the spoiler would be better if it was a cup or trophy one, mudflaps just dont suit...
A lot better than you'd expect! Quite a lot louder than standard and a lot more raspy, get the odd pop as well, but nothing too major.......not sure its worth the flat spot to be honest, but you dont notice that when your driving properly!
Here's a vid, not mine but the same...
Not planning anything spectacular mate no, would quite like to get an exhaust, iv got the centre section removed so sounds good but a proper exhaust would be better, and would like it remapped to get rid of the flat spot, but all costs a lot so we will see!!!
Just thought i'd put up some pics after some minor changes and a clean. Had the car nearly a year now, always wanted the speedlines but never found them for a price i was happy paying, luckily, by chance i managed to get in touch with Stephen Murr (R Sports Cars on here) who sorted me a brand...
Nice mate, same as mine, can't understand why you want to change to a 197 front end tho 200 is nicer!!
Will you be selling your headlights when u change? I'm after a pair of the black ones.
I had my old wheels done there on my cooper s, he is good, the place is a complete shithole mind but good finish and price, didn't wanna go again tho as its a b*****d to get back from, had mine done in a day do had to drop the car off then walk to benfleet station!
Anyone know of any decent places for this? Want to get my standard wheels done black, can't seem to find anywhere. Needs to be a drive in an out in a day really as iv no spare wheels. Live near to Sawbridgeworth so somewhere near there would be ideal. Have considered painting them myself but a...
Thinking more on slicks, if I'm doing a track day every other month, the wear probably ain't all that much to worry about, and no worse than on 888's which I'd run alternatively. Have to look into the cage issue but still not dead against slicks, and at £100 a set I think il have to try and see...
To be honest mate, it isn't really what I wante to hear no! But seems sensible, hadn't thought about the cage problem on track nor the increased wear to be honest, reason I was thinking of getting slicks is purely due to £, the r888's are about 530 for a set which is obviously what most people...
Nothin really considering its standard, it's epic. But want it lower for a start, and to cure the minor under steer mid corner, slicks should all but sort that on track, but just want the whole thing tighter. For a standard car it is amazing though, but with some improvements Il be able to give...
As title says really, many people on here had coilovers on the 200? Been told AST's are the way to go but there are also h&r and Kw's, can anyone advise me?
Also looking to get some more track focused pads, are the rc6's worth the extra doe? Or are derisory ds2500's good enough?
It was mate, u gonna track yours?? Gonna book up again soon do brands in April I think. Sorted out some slicks today, just need get some wheels for em.
Anyone know the best coilovers for the 200? Been told AST's are the best but they're £1500, anyone tried Kw's?
As title says, did Oulton yesterday, was an awesome day, weather a bit crap to begin with but dried out nicely for late morning. Was absolutely s**tting myself at the start, felt way out of my depth with all the lads trailering in their track weapons and getting the spanners out, while me and my...
Yeh there's one or two!!
200 is the b*llocks mate, best car iv owned by far. Had 2 EP3 type r's since the ST, and the 200's even better than that, not as quick in a straight line but runs rings round it in the handling dept!! Good to be back in a proper, white hot hatch as well!!!
Small world!! Used know you off ZSOC im tommy s (obviously) off there, had 3 zs's then white ST with blue stripes, a while ago now!!!!
Nice 182 mate, I had the exact same dilemma 4 years ago now, I went the ST route, as proven by the fact I now have a 200, the urge for a renaultsport never...
