My K4M shed

So who is going to CSS? Come say hi?

I've ordered a wide track conversion kit off the 172 and soon to be getting a rear cage with harness's and subframes :)
 
I'll be perving over this ill be sure to say hello. How much has the lastest purchase set you back if you don't mind me asking?

Wide track is about £160
Coilovers for wide track going to be whatever I can find on here, haven't bought them yet
Cage from here: http://www.alachi57.com/5.html

There was a thread on the cage on here but I can't find it :(
I'm going for the best one with two harness bars.

When are you getting some F1's?

I'll definitely be coming for a nosey at yours mate.

Oz f1? Don't really like them tbh, prefer even spokes.

I quite like my wheels but they are in need of a refurb, and I just bought new tyres all round so I'll probably get some new wheels when I need new tyres.
 
So who were all you people crowding around my epic engine bay today then? ;)

Anyway, picked up some 172 gear from Mick B, thanks to arg_carra for bringing them down as well!

The twingo rs 1.6 is a K4m with a turbo I believe. So yeah it is.
That picture is the rear of my car, and there was two people sitting in it :P
 
twingo RS has no turbo, its just a k4m with better cams, high lifting pistons etc few other things... its an N/A engine

N00b! But thanks!
 
Nice! Loudish, but pretty tasteful. Chav exhausts aren't my up of tea but I remember that this did not offend my ears lol!

I meant why is it so low for a track car? I wouldbt go more than -30mm max

Because race car.

I'm not a huge fan of these coilovers, as my back end is very tail happy. I know what you mean though, when I get my new coilovers for widetrack I'll get it set-up properly with corner weighting.
 
The guy that has my old saxo has just now had to replace two driveshafts although its possible my driving buggered them up lol

Also had pas pipe rubbing which was fun losing power steering mid way round a roundabout. Not going granny speeds either :(
