Oh I also bought some silver hammerite, to paint my calipers. Will get the Mrs to do that, I hate doing that sort of thing.

If you want gold callipers that's what you should use, if you want the front to stay silver get some high temp paint mate :up:. Have a look at my trophy 381 thread, one outing from pretty silver to gold due to heat 🙈

First Track day finally booked for September 4th. Only an evening session at Brands, bit of a shake down for things I need to change.

Now on white F1's wrapped in AD08r's - Which I think makes the sunstrip a little less offensive to look at.

Did a run out across the Peak District with @dann2707 and the guys and the car was faultless.

The F1s suit it really well!

It's come a long way since I last saw it!

You may find you'll have to ditch the DS2500 mate, mine wasn't that great on my old car and that was just a road car.

I was very tempted by DS3000 or 1.1's - But thought I'll start off with these and see how my needs progress.

It's changed a bit thats for sure! Certainly becoming a very capable car (shame about the driver) - Looking forward to testing on track.
You can have a go if you like, if I can drive yours ;-)

Haha! Good deal!

I've just read this thread @RyG

Some good progress on the car and fingers cross for a good evening at Brands Hatch in a few weeks time.

You not coming to CSF mate?

Jekyll · Aug 7, 2017

He's being gay, Ron and taking the golf as he can't commute more than 4 miles in the track car!

@RyG I thought the H&Rs we're being adjustable only, didn't know they was damping also?

Yes you're right on both points, can't edit now.

Sod that If we meet up for Northweild you'll have to drive it round the airstrip. You'll see what I mean then.

cliocollins · Aug 7, 2017

You know my thoughts on it mate. Looks great! The white contrasts perfectly with the RB.

First track day at last. Well, evening session at Brands Hatch. Both me and my Fiance Megan drove (both with tuition too).

Great fun! Car was absolutely faultless and was absolutely flying.

I got a bit ambitious going round Paddock and hit the curb on the passenger side. This cause the wheel to touch the wing/front bumper and knock the bumper out a little. Just pushed back in though (thankfully I fitted those shitty JDM elastic band things which held it all together).

52 track miles and 1/4 of a tank. DS2500 were on point and didn't fade at all (short sessions only). Steering was amazing on the whole, but I need to change the ride height and I think remove my front spacers.

Looks to be sitting lower at the back?

Yeah it is, which isn't ideal. Problem is when I put the adjusters back in it sits REALLY high at the back. Struggling with what to do tbh!

Drive by video I took of Megan ^

Can you double up on the rubber bungs to bring it up slightly?

Sounds good too, what exhaust and induction you using?

BTB Exhaust and a shitty open cone filter - I have a Ktec induction kit to go on but haven't bothered yet

Monday evening mate. Drop me a text one day you're free and we'll head to a pub for a catch up!

I may have bought another 182 too, so will have to decide which to bring ;-)

Removed the seats/cage etc and going to prep for paint tomorrow. Not sure when I will actually paint it though! Soon enough.

Inequality Street · Dec 29, 2017

Started the painting. Only took a couple of months
