His daily too iirc
Ish
Interesting.
A friend has a 22B and there's NOTHING understeery about it! He does run his in 70:30 rear bias mode or whatever the setting is.
Evo 5 RS
Who knows, probably had the geometry setup by some cowboys lol
Driven one and had a passenger lap in another, pushing on there is understeer present.
Average driver wouldn't notice.
I see what you mean Ant, just look at this arms full of understeer...
..and I'll tell him you called him 'average'. :laughing:
I didn't call him average, I said the average driver! I bet it's not running standard shocks though right ;-)
Nice vid though!
Haha. He's not afraid to pedal it properly...
That's the last link, let's not fill this thread with scoobs.
But TBH, you've got to get inline, behind me! Pretty sure it's all 100% OEM too.

Thread of Win. 
I can't believe the start of my own Lancer ownership experience was 5 years ago now. Must think about having one of these again at least once a week!

One red TME just around the corner from work at a Celica specialist - looking very sorry for itself. Apparently the rear floor pan has less rigidity than a slab of Swiss cheese and it's been sat there for a number of years now.
If I lived my life by my balls - I'd buy it for peanuts and take a £15k loan out to restore it.

Is it for sale ?

Oh dear one tongue in cheek comment and the thread turns into Evo Vs Scooby :tongueclosed:. In all seriousness though, i love them both and for completely different reasons, great cars!
The guy in the 22b has been working with a chap that owns a mint red TME n posted videos on youtube, really good to watch in great quality HD too

Mate - I bet if you offered him a price - he'd go for it. It must have been there for going on three years now and is literally taking up space in the garage forecourt.
I'll PM you his details - though like I said, he did say the that rear floor was in a 'bad way'. What am I saying though?? Buy it - get it transported - and I'll chuck those spare panels in it... :smile:
Countryman JCW
Can you PM me his details and price too please?
Any excuse to crack out pics of my old V
Did you buy or sell that to a chap called Andy?
Countryman JCW
I dont remember the name of the chap i bought it from, pretty sure his name was Robin? but i px'd it when i got rid to a garage, so no idea who bought it. Would love to see where it is now and how its doing !
Clio 197,with megan'
I had an FQ400, running around 600bhp,with many other mods, but never felt it was a keeper. Many cars later I have a Clio,running 320/340, and this car is certainly is a keeper.
Evo 5 RS
With that much power it probably wasn't a keeper, no!
Evo 5 RS
Going by that, I don't think he's been in an Evo period
He's a good friend of mine, operates drones by day.
Never mind, this Andy chaps V was yellow. My memory is just s**t. Haha.

My old V
Used to drive it hard but that's what it was built for ;-)
And after a hose off.

And I cry going down a muddy lane.
Need to have a word with myself.

You only live once 
you'll regret not getting the most out of a car if you don't use it to its full potential.

Evo 5 RS
I had a hoot on Tuesday picking the car up from the unit. The back roads around Horsham are a blast. It's what the car is for!
Evo 5 RS
Although when I pick it up from Dynotech it's going to be hanging, CBA to clean it lol
172 LB Clio
Lee and Bob are great down at Dynotech. Good mappers too!
Evo 5 RS
Yeah that might be on the cards at some point in Spring, Bob has been great. I think I'm one of his only customers with a standard 8 lol
172 LB Clio
Apparently the acd map Lee has developed transforms the way it drives.
Countryman JCW
Ahh, that would explain the awesome drone footage in the video then ! His 22b is a thing of beauty !
