These are my RC5's after roughly 12 track days and several thousand road miles. :ROFLMAO: Bought in 2018 & apart from a brief try of some mintex pads only just changed.
But I am constantly told I don't brake hard enough by @M.C..
I ran CL RC6 after upgrading from the CL RC5+ @ Bedford 2 weeks ago & I was really impressed by them.
Gave me a lot more confidence. Bloody hated driving home with them though, 3.5 Hours of squealing on every roundabout :D
Fair enough, that does make sense. Leave them out then.
I know the 1.2 Team Dynamics ones have a habit of going missing on track thinking about it now.
Nice to meet you @Rojer too.
You are welcome, it was a pleasure to be able to assist. I think you may have been a lot later home had we continued chatting 🤣.
@Rojer As Promised here are some photos of the wheels, I was slightly out with the offset as it's 49 not 47. A quick online check has the PCD as 5 x114.3 which I think ties in with the Clio & is the same as my i20N.
One has a very small amount of curb rash, Would you be happy with £40 just to...
@Rojer I Will take Photos of them in the Morning, I have just spent ages trying to find photos in my album but can't.
From Memory they are 114.3 PCD & 17 x 7 with 47 offset but will double check in the morning.
This is when I trial fitted one to my i20N in March but they are no good because...
@Rojer I have some MK3 Megane Wheels I will have to double check the PCD & offset but I am sure they are the same PCD as the Clio as I fitted one to my Clio 220 Trophy & the I20N.
@bvnditi with spacers you probably wouldn't have had to notch the base out.
I have included a photo which just about shows the spacers I made.
From memory 25mm diameter Aluminium bar with a 8.5 mm drilled hole through the middle & 25mm in length.
With OMP Bases the seats sit wonky, Ideally you need a spacer under the two inside bolt holes. I think it's around 25mm but it's long time since I did mine.
Swore at it as I had a quick flashing red immobiliser light.
Took two attempts taking the negative battery terminal off & on before it decided to behave as though nothing had happened!!
@bvnditi
Just looked through my photos of when I retrofitted my cruise.
Have Attached photos of the squib, cruise panel & the wiring.
From Memory the black plug is for cruise & the grey plug is horn. The two yellows are for the airbag.
So check your car & if you have the black plug I believe...
If you press the cruise switch, do you get Set come up on the dash?
I managed to retro fit cruise to my 172.
I added the clutch switch, A 182 Squib & a Volantech panel for the operation of cruise etc.
There is also a guide on here...
I also used Autoglym SRP yesterday on my Daily with Gtechniq C2V3 on top. 7 Hours from start to Finish. Have used SRP for years as I am definitely old (School)
I like the fact that you made it yourself, at least you know it's made correctly. Looks spot on.
Quite often I have bought parts & thought I could have made that better.
When I had tuition at Donington I was told not to lift off through Craners, the one time I did the car was very unsettled & the instructor just said I told you🤷♂️
