[Bobby.]

ktr/janspeed super sport version with decat.

 

[niall.pearce.7]

[Bobby.]

Yeah it sounds quite load. It also pops and bangs from cold.

 

[firthy182]

Car looks great! Have you sprayed your front grill black?

 

[lilocky]

[Bobby.]

Cheers yes, the previous owner had them all sprayed

 

[Bobby.]

Nice mate looks lovely and clean

The car is actually really dirty, it hasn't had a wash in over a week. I think its just where its sitting in the shade, that's whats hiding the dirt lol.

 

[RDH]

That looks awesome. I miss my Arctic so much

 

[firthy182]

I have an arctic with black turini's and that black grill makes it look so much better.

Yours looks spot on.

 

[Bobby.]

Yes spraying the grills definitely complements black wheels. Do it mate.

 

[one in a million]

[RDH]

The guy I sold it to signed up to here, hopefully it will appear at some point!

+1 might be longer, i'm ashamed of myself ha, lovely pictures you have taken. i feel it needs the standard front diamond back on then is spot on!

 

[Gibbo4k]

hello mate i did sign up here... ive still got it.. its not moved since the day i got it home though.. as soon as i got home i had to see if i could quieten the exhaust down as when i took it home from london i had ear ache. i got a middle section with a big silencer and have mated it up to the system and just sorting the funny hanger setup for the back boxes to get them to sit how they were.. once its out again ill take some pics... still looks the same tho i love it every time i go into the garage now and i have so much more room with the tiny clio in their..

 

[Chileno]

Love it. Planning to get some OZ's here.

Are these 15" or the rare 16"?

Whats tyre specs? Thanks!

Glad your still happy with it Jay! I miss it more and more each day!

The exhaust was very loud, but as I rarely used it I put up with the bad times for the times when I was in the mood! The exhaust bracket was abit pikey, but because I knew I wasn't changing the exhaust I just never bothered with it. I'll be sure to keep up to date with it anyway

 

[Richyy182]

Wow

 

[Bobby.]

+1 might be longer, i'm ashamed of myself ha, lovely pictures you have taken. i feel it needs the standard front diamond back on then is spot on!

i do often think of putting the std diamond back on as it will match the rear diamond, badges and bullets. but i quite like the look from the front with the black diamond matching the black trims. i cant decide weather to do something with my bullets, maybe blue with the 2.0 16v in black?

Love it. Planning to get some OZ's here.

their just the standard renault 15" ones. tyres are federal RSR's size 195 50 15.

Wow

stunning mate

cheers chaps

 

[Sam]

Lovely looking car mate.

Any more plans?

it to me just looks like the diamond is missing/been nicked

 

[Bobby.]

Cheers mate. Future plans are

Spacers for the rear and then try an do lots of track days next year.

Maybe:

250 rs badge
Spray shake bullet in matching blue with black font
Ktr bolt in cage (if one comes up cheap)
Pure motorsport camber shims
Ktr induction kit

it to me just looks like the diamond is missing/been nicked

Lol maybe in the pics yes but in the flesh its fine.

Cheers mate, I think where its sitting on a hill it gives it a nice stance. Yeah get some and ill fit them for you, no worries

 

[Martin.]

Lovely looking motor. Some great mods on it too!

Cheers mate, did you move the brackets on Your RARB? Any different?

 

[Martin.]

not had a chance yet. Car was fantastic at Bedford on Saturday though so might not even bother..

 

[Bobby.]

Probably won't make any difference anyway. What setting do you have yours set on?

 

[Martin.]

The stiffest one possible

 

[Bobby.]

I've Got mine on the softest setting, I'm a bit paranoid about going to the stiffest setting as I've heard it makes the car oversteery but i think im going to try the medium setting soon, See if I can tell any difference.

 

[Tomas]

Good photos, what did you use to take the?

Tom

 

[Martin.]

I was a little concerned about that too. But it was fantastic on track. Really felt solid!

 

[Bobby.]

Good photos, what did you use to take the?

Tom

Pictures were taken with a NIKON D3000.

I was a little concerned about that too. But it was fantastic on track. Really felt solid!

Think I'm gonna have to get under the car tonight and have a play. Did you try the softer settings first?

 

[Martin.]

Yeah I used the softer setting for around 6 track days. This was my first on the stiffest and I will definitely not be putting it back.

 

[Chileno]

Thanks for the answers I may have others:

Are they 15x7? What offset? You running on spacers?

 

[Tim-182]

Lovely looking car, what I always wanted to do to my arctic 182!

Were those pictures taken at that big development on the quay in eastbourne?

 

[Bobby.]

Thanks for the answers I may have others:

Are they 15x7? What offset? You running on spacers?

yes they are 15x 7. I think the offset is ET37. I'd have to check as i forgot, their just the standard Renault oz f1's if that helps.

As for spacers its Got 25mm fk on the front with -2 degree camber
And no spacers on the back at the moment.

Pictures were taken in the north side of the soverign harbour where I live in Eastbourne. I think were talking about the same place.
