  1. I used bluestuff on the road and track and they were still ok just not brilliant until some heat in them. I run yellowstuff on road and track and they're fine but do eventually overheat. Bluestuff would not fade at all but did wear uneven due to heat getting to the calipers and causing flex. This was my fault as I should have cooled down more but decided that because the pads weren't fading and fluid wasn't boiling I was good to keep pushing. Remember and upgrade your fluid to the likes of motul rbf660 or similar

    Tyre Pressure 19"

    Should be 245/35/19 and 275/35/19. I ran 235/35/19 and 275/35/19 for a while with no issues. This size allows the rears to spin a little more before tcs kicks in. Your tcs will be going off its head as the rears will be spinning too fast in comparison to the front.
  5. Hmm sounds as though they have similar amount of movement as the spc. Did they come with extra toe bolts?
  6. I don't think the d2 arms are of very good quality. I have spc arms and toe bolts and they have mega amounts of adjustment on them. Who fitted the arms and toe bolts?

    Big rears

    A while back I posted a thread of a family members car collection. Well I found the last couple of pics that I couldn't locate at the time. Check out the size of the rear tyres on the f40

    Tyre help

    Should be 245 and 275 , 245 is quite stretched on a 9.5j rim
  11. There is something about it ! They look scary coming up behind you also, the arches are huge on it an the front looks evil.
  12. Lol I've had that many tyres I forgot lol. I think I have had 5 sets or more in 14 thousand miles lmao

  14. I do think the focus rs looks mean and the only problem for me is that it isn't 4wd like the old cossie. Obviously it's been engineered well but I think 4wd would help it sell more Yep rich, that's true but I honestly though I was going to be pumped by it. It was just a perspective that a st is alot slower than the rs and the ra is probably a pretty good match for a reasonably tuned n/a zed. you also have to take the driver in to account a car is nothing if the driver doens;t know how to make the most of it. The rs driver is a self proclaimed track whore and as I could see a very good driver. As per the op's initial post. On paper the zeds faster. The rest is down to car(how well it's running) and driver.

  16. Just go for dba's from zmanalex. I'm sure the dealer will be charging you similar prices and Dba are much better
  17. To add some perspective myself and the g man were on track with his friend who had a focus rs(new one) with semi slicks and he was slower round raf valley than us. Very fast through corners not so quick on the straights.
  18. Can't find it now. It has a clio "sport" badge and v6 badge on the rear
  19. I have a pic of this in Stirling I'll post in a moment. See if you can see what's wrong
  20. Love it mate! The v8 engine is very torquey!! My bro had the amg clk and it would spin the wheels at very fast speeds if planted. His gearbox went though got repaired under warranty though
  21. I wouldn't swap your zed for evo regardless of performance. Your car pushes my buttons more. Nice pics
  22. Yep matey, I found on eBay they're now selling at over 90 and at a rapid rate. Not sure if they are the original oem parts though or aftermarket copies
