K-Tec's 197..?

[R172]

Been looking for pictures of k-tecs red 197 for ages now but cant find anything other than the few little pictures that are on the K-tec website. Just wondering if anybody got any snaps of it at FCS 07? Thanks.

Scottish lot had some as they were staying at the same hotel the night before FCS.

I would have to disagree with you there mate, there are a helluva lot nicer ones out there.

having there exhaust done on monday, i see in the pic ktec have the round pipes sticking out, what do peeps think round or slash, but slash will be hidden i guess.
quite like the round they are 3"

 

[R172]

Bloody hell must be abit loud without an exhaust :rasp:
Im the same I need one on the Lupo, however the only system out there is the Janspeed, which has twin 3.5 inch exits :dead: Plan is to get a custom one made up by the likes of prospeed or have the original exits welded onto the Janspeed item.

 

[Alan]

Indeed matey, its that reno built quality, 5,500 miles and its falling off already...

I'd go with a custom H&S for the loop matey...

Cup spoiler and front cf diffuser look horrible, cf skirts look good but just can't get away with the spoiler it just looks stuck on! And the front add on spoils the front end, just my opinion like

[Laing1982]

love the skirts, front add on looks ok actually from those new pics, but the spoiler, whats everyones opinions on this?

lol dont remember seeing this! top right of pic, 3 cars up, is my 106

 

[Timmay]

very nice car indeed

 

[Mwindow]

not keen on the spoiler

 

[Gareth]

I'm not keen on the spoiler either, I'm surprised at the amount of people that actually like it.

 

[Iridium]

I really like the 'stance' the wheels and low ness give it. I don't like the spoiler at all. The other RS trim bits are ok though

[Coby.]

That is very nice!!

 

[Matt_Clio172]

I like the spoiler but the front splitter doesnt do it for me

 

[nth]

i prefer this look, without a spoiler or small one, no skirts and standard splitter

Remember the Ktec ultra red 197 from FCS, was that lowered?

 

[Lagerlout]

I was thinking... how does that spoiler affect the aerodynamics of the car?

We're led to believe that Renaultsport spent time in the windtunnel testing the rear diffuser to generate downforce....obviously the spoiler may generate more, but most likely at the cost of drag. I guess it's most likely not something you'd readily notice but I'd be willing to bet it'll knock a fair few mph of your top speed.

Does look bloody lovely though lol.

 

[106GTi97]

Its okay, not a fan of the blinding great sunstrip though, prefer these standard

Agree. Not into the Renault spolier kit either. Looks perfect there

Difuser only comes into play at high speed does it not ?!

Still love that car and im considering the Spoiler for mine :approve:

++++1!

getting itchy feet, just feel its what my car is lacking.

i was swaying towards the yozzasport exhaust, but after seeing this, i quite like it. i assume thats the miltek system?

gash mate, stick with slash cut

 

[Justin]

very smart, bar the horrendous spoiler

 

[BioHzrd]

gash mate, stick with slash cut

Agreee

 

[Darren]

gash mate, stick with slash cut

could be right, if i am going for slash cut then it will be yozza.

Do the right thing How the springs btw? I'm still waiting on my H&R's. Gonna open a can of whoop ass tomorrow......

 

[fUbAr]

PMSL!!

 

[Rich_16v]

I don't like the spoilers either they look to aftermarket 'add on'

Do like the turinis

Surprised they didn't fit recaros

springs are fine mate. no problems so far (touch wood). just gives the car a better stance i think. looking to order up some 10mm spacers next month to bring the wheels out a bit.

No i didnt get any photos
