240 for the pair mate...
Wanted to try the dunlops, jsut read in a few places that you need bone dry conditions for them to be amazing, so thought id stick with these..
Fitted the RC6's today...
Going to probably get Danny@519 to fit the braided lines and the SuperBlue as I cant drive it ont he road to test the brakes are blead properly, so rather him do it, than waste a trackday sitting under it bleading air bubbles out...

Nice. I found a full set of R888's for £470. Think that's my xmas present to myself sorted.
I can see the argument for RSR's but I really think it'd be good to get mine on 888's around cadwell again in the new year to see what it's like with grippy rubber lol

A shed
The new Yokohama AD08R is a LOT better than the RSR in the wet and dry fwiw
All that money on that car and you still haven't got decent tyres lol???
Don't you start
Haha. Pull your finger out. The difference will be huge and you'll never look back!!
I don't know why I always choke at £400 for a set of tyres. I think it's because I know how long they'd last lol

Our part worn set lasted 3 days at blyton, a day at snett 300, day at cadwell in blistering heat, and a day at rockingham...
Well worth the money...
Try putting premium tyres on anything with bigger than 16's, 2 Contis for the front of my Megane lasted 6 Months and they were £260 ish at the time..
M3 was a grand for a full set of P-Zeros...
Ill put 888's on the clio any day lol

There's a day at Blyton on 8th December - currently only £89 for the day
Last year I went down and at lunch time you could book on for 4hrs in the afternoon for £50. Think I'm gonna go for a drive down and if it's not slinging it down have a bit of a play.
Track days in the winter are pish cheap!

LOL joking aside when it rained at Cadwell my lap times got quicker on rainsports. They're pretty good when they aren't overheating lol
Satchshift is still my absolute favourite mod I've ever done. It's brilliant mechanically, feels like cocking a gun and gives you the feeling that you've got a sequential gearbox lol

Studs are screwed into the spacers
And the cage is the cheap one off ebay that everyone says will kill me if I crash
Would a good half cage be safe or is full cage the only way to be sure
All that hasel to save a couple grams in plastic holes, and you have left the massive chunk of tar in the roof?
Looks good though, very familiar haha
This is mine
I bet your front bumper is as flimsy as a slags dildo with that many holes in!

Depends what your going to be using the car for..
Any kind of racing youll NEED a full cage...
Track days, worst youll do is roll your car on a really bad day, so a rear cage will be fine, I cant see you ever flipping a car leaving the floor, so dont think the cage will come under massive strain...
Id like to extend it to a full cage to offer some leg protection incase of a massive shunt..

Fair enough, looking at the safety devices rear cage for now
Same one I have. Very high quality cage.
Not really, its the fact i don't have the plastic that sits behind it and the plastic piece that bolts to the subframe removed that makes it so flimsy.
Look at at the first pic, you can see the distortion.
ON TOPIC
I have the ebay rear cage, brilliant piece of kit for the cash, i have it bolted in with spreader plates etc, its definitely going to do more good than bad in a crash.
I am upgrading to full cage over winter as i do drive rather hard on track and i would like to get into racing one day!
Any idea the cheapest place to buy?

Yea still have it.
Only been out twice this year due to my mate having a kid.
Did The new Blyton layout a while ago, and Donnington on Sunday.
Car performed well, abit lairy in the wet though on cold R888's
Want to try and dial out some understeer though, and think the Quickshift linkage has slipped a fraction as its notchey going into 3rd, and sometimes it finds 5th
