Driven not detailed Ph1 T

Looks sweet. Kind of spec I'd like.
But as a road car think the cooler would need re thinking but track car no worries looks great.

Yeah totally agree.. Tbh though Dont think I'd want one as a constant road car the noise and power just makes you want to give it a blast everywhere. Can't wait to see what it's like on track in next month

Brakes are mint ds3000 pads really are awesome..

No need for 4 pots ect although i will
Be fitting some wildwoods towards end of the year see what they're like and the look great

Are they much of an improvement over the standard setup? I was thinking of upgrading my brakes in the not too distant future.. Have you used DS2500? If so how to they compare to the DS3000's?

Thanks

Yeah had 2500 on my old 182 IMO there miles apart stoping ability and lack of fade is great although the dust off them does ruin your front wheels well that's if you never clean them after track like me

My setup compared to standard is unreal

Hc disks
Ds3000 pads
Braided lines
Dot 5.1 fluid

Your onto a winner at that

 

[G Ster]

I used DS2500's on my old car and agree they are very good pads albeit very dusty! I was forever cleaning my wheels! Do the DS3000's offer much more stopping power and are they suitable for road use as my car is my everyday car.

Do you find with the increased stopping ability that the ABS kicks in more than with the standard setup?

Thanks

 

[danh90]

Yeah there fine on road as i use them on road although do squeal when warm..

Not noticed anything with abs they just stop you massively quicker than the 2500 and obviously standard I won't have any problem stopping even with the power I'm running

 

[Dan@SJM]

Not liking the cooler, paint it black with a silver line through it to imitate the bumper

But I like stealth. Otherwise looks good

 

[danh90]

I'm wanting to go black with the cooler. What paint can you paint it with as I guess you can't use normal rattle can stuff?

 

[Bobby.]

Yeah I'm pretty sure a normal rattle can spray jobby will be fine.


Ph1's don't even have abs do they?

Needs to start being driven Dan

 

[domsclio182]

Might want to get the cooler power coated, will get chipped to fcuk using spray paint. May well see you at the ring for a little tear up.

When you going bud?

 

[domsclio182]

Same time as the eoe lot that you are going with mate. Turbo vs Supercharger

 

[danh90]

Haha this could be interesting

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Its interesting to know the increased stopping power isn't enough to lock the wheels..

 

[Leeshez]

Stunning .

 

[danh90]

Cheers mate

Etch primer and regular spray paint is what I used. Didn't stone chip with mine. Keep the paint thin as you'll end up insulating it otherwise!

I was going to say surely if it was powdercoated it would negate cooling aspect.

 

[danh90]

Etch primer and rattle can it is then should look good

 

[Dan@SJM]

Here's my LCR's.

(Keeping with the Clio theme too)

 

[danh90]

Looks good alot more subtle as mines really in your face atm.

 

[Dan@SJM]

Aye, you wouldn't know it was packing 360bhp and 321lb-ft
