182 on coilovers...

[Turkish]

not as good imo, too firm for my liking but only been on a couple of days and yet to play around with them. give it a few weeks and ill have a better idea. it is gokart like on the bends now though lol corners flat as f**k.

 

[CHRIS172CUP]

theyll be better for track use than the h&rs id have thought. mine are too soft but you got to compromise.

 

[haitch]

..teasing phone shots eh, im in the approving half of course

 

[Turkish]

ordered your wheels yet ?

 

[Sawa]

Looking good! Could do with a clean thou lol

 

[Day]

Seats are great, belts are sh*te

 

[Turkish]

not my fault a skinny bird had been in there before and it took you 6 hours to wind the harnesses out lol.

 

[Clart]

go practice taking photos you donkey

 

[Turkish]

sorry been too busy fisting your mum to brush up on my photography skills.

 

[Sawa]

Couldnt you have combined the two? Unlike you to miss an opportunity like that!

 

[Iain C]

oh no! Looks a mess imo.

Hard seats, no airbag! (not very safe), nasty rims (yer i know they are light)

At least the coilovers where a good idea!

Oh well each to their own.

Hard seats they are actually pretty comfortable and i didnt by it to be a cruiser for long motorway journeys anyway, no airbag! Your point ? have you actually seen an airbag go off trust me you wouldnt want to be near one, and if you need airbags to be safe then mention a motorsport where they use them ?(not very safe), nasty rims (yer i know they are light) Fair comment on the rims they werent the top of my list either.

Seats are fantastic, coilovers are fantastic. Wheels look bloody awful, but I get where your coming from so furry muff.

Not sure about the steering wheel, but then again I kinda get that as well.

 

[Tom]

Shed. but a shed i would own.

 

[Iain C]

I think reno have dont a god job of making a safe car for the real world...not motorsport.

The saftey system needs seat belts and airbags to work....not 1 or the other.

I can see why ud put 4 point harnsess in a valver/williams but not the newer safer cars...just imo tho

There are numerous people i personally know that have been in accidents(in some cases severe ones) where having buckets and harnesses lessened the injuries they would have sustained and in a couple of cases saved their lives. A friend of mine works for the fire brigade and i can tell you his opinion on some of the supposed "safety" features on some modern cars.

Fact of the matter is as soon as you have an accident you are put in a position to sustain injury no matter how many safety back ups you have. i dont feel any less safe for having removed the std belts and airbags. If it concerns you then the answer is simple dont set foot in my car or one with the same items fitted.

 

[CHRIS172CUP]
