    Bought myself a Crossfire

    But he never tested the SRT-6 ! Also he is "ever-so-slightly" biased as to what he likes. I believe in people having there own opinions based on facts rather than following others like sheep like they worship them and hang on every word they say......

    Bought myself a Crossfire

    Thank you. I loved my Clio Cup, it was like a roller skate on steroids and prety manic, especially in the wet. Great fun though, living on the edge.

    Bought myself a Crossfire

    Hmmm......the SRT6 is built in Germany in the same factory as the Mercedes SLK. It uses 65% Mercedes/AMG parts and is not "quite" the same as a Standard Crossfire. I agree the body styling is American, but they even use German Steel for the body shell so is good quality too. All switchgear is...

    Bought myself a Crossfire

    some pics: Since these were taken I have fitted rear diffuser each side of the exhaust. Also, I have ordered the SL55 Air intake for the supercharger which is far less restrictive and will yield approx 15BHP more. I am already running at approx 360 BHP, so really looking fwd to this next mod.

    Bought myself a Crossfire

    Went out last night to test 0-60 after mods got 4.7 secs with some wheel spin. If I could cut the wheel spin I recon 4.5 would be posible (but a perfect launch would be rare) Under 5 sec's is achievable almost everytime though. Also, the best 0-100 I have got so far is 10.75 (not on public...

    Bought myself a Crossfire

    I have the SRT-6 Crossfire that has a few tweaks over the normal crossfire and there are only 2000 coiupes and 900 convertibles worldwide, so very rare. Changes include: strengthened chassis uprated suspension uprated callipers uprated discs larger fixed rear spoiler lower front lip...

    Tesco 99 update & Tech info

    My Car is mapped for min 98 ron (supposed to be 100 ron) so I will get an increase in power. Gald it has detergents in it as I would stick with Optimax otherwise. I'm down to Tescos when I run dry

    Tesco 99 update & Tech info

    We are unable to advise on the content of Shell Optimax, however I can confirm that our 99 octane unleaded petrol has a minimum RON of 99 and a MON of 87. It exceeds the British Standard Specifications for BS7800 - superunleaded fuel, and BSEN228 premium unleaded. It contains a high level of a...

    CUP gone - Pic’s of the new beast !

    cliotuRS thing about scoobys 0-60 times are they are exagerated. like you say 320ps in a 1500kg car 4wd with cleaver diffs will do a 5sec to 60 (still very rapid) but the standard STI with 260hp same weight in reality only do 6s and wrx standard simular weight 220ps only actually do 7s...

    CUP gone - Pic’s of the new beast !

    they are clearing old stock from various opinions - I had 3 years free servicing instead - They are now offering the ugrade instead of the servicing and are of similar value. I have had the new PPP fitted with has a complete ECU replacement amongst other mods. The rumour is that the Current...

    CUP gone - Pic’s of the new beast !

    The Tyres are Bridgestones and are about as slick as you can get - In case you were wondering its knocking out 320PS (rumour has it) and Prodrive figures for the 2005 model are 0-62 in 4.2 secs. Does seem optimistic, but you can launch it without abusing the clutch too much in about 5 secs...

    CUP gone new car arrived

    Chief Brodie:- Tyres look mean they are not far off slicks. Obviously not been able to push it yet, but have been carrying some speed into corners with no problem. In the wet at speed it feels a little skitty sometimes, but if you "partially" lock the diff it is rock solid again. DCCD does...
