Great day on saturday, was really cold but clear sky! no traffic and free roaming in the pits, which was cool as long as you wernt drifting off as the cars had right of way... These legend cars were awesome, going to try and make it to a race next year if i can... this thing flew.. next years ginetta This was tigers effort going forwards into next year, this thing was rapid but didnt manage to get a price My m8 behind the Veyron style airbrake i had specially fitted to the aygo new skelta, this thing looks horrible imo though it got a lot of attention and deserved it from some insane laptimes! What can you say about an sr8?
-
when i say falkens i mean the 452 model on 19's with another inch in width over standard as well
-
personally couldnt disagree with that more ran both the bridgestones and the falkens on track and the falkens are a lot better, currently running stock suspension (soon to be changed). The bridgestones were prolly a little better from cold and imo both fairly useless in the wet but in dry falkens worlds apart, maybe this is just driving style? who knows... falkens also performed well at the strip, grip is immense......
-
thanks mr rush. i have actually managed to get hold of someone else as well so watch this space Ill let them come back to me with a quote (as they are a lot closer) first and if not ill phone envy.

unsure if all of the K1 is japspeed, only know that the Y pipe is, and also that the Y pipe is the most restrictive part of the standard system.
-
ah ok, didnt realise that, ta

In process of replacing brakes, wondering if there is any interest in 4 brembo discs/calipers/pads both front and rear pm me a sensible offer. pads on the front are ebc yellow, rear standard brembo, also have spare front brembo pads, part worn. This would be ideal for someone without the gt pack
-
To me that pic just shows how timeless the 350 is and how unresolved the the 370 is. +1
-
, bit of a drive buddy, but thanks for the offer Kent, not to far at all shame ya not in the Zed ............ unless you want to listen to a 1.0ltr Aygo standard exhaust? I suspect not off to brands so 60+mpg sounds better than 20-mpg
-
well your welcome to come up to coventry, i cant admit to having had as much experience at making tea as andrew but there will be a cup here waiting im in kent on saturday but not in the zed!
-
im pretty sure zedrush did have the k1 on his car but as i never saw it im unsure whether or not the fit was any good.
-
There are no legal limits on the noise the car can make, only the surroundings it makes it in. So, the police advise you that you are disturbing the peace or annoying some chavs whilst there trying to stab a gran or something then it can be deemed as too loud. Ive never been pulled but then i only open the taps fully on country roads and the occasional slip road. It is also illegal to change an exhaust on a car for the sole purpose of increasing the noise over the standard exhaust, but interestingly you can alter it to increase or decrease performance/mpg. In regards the track bedford said i can come down and they will test it with their db meter before i pay as i dont want to get banned!
-
the noise without is awesome as well but i only use that for special occasions, you are talking about attracting a fair amount of attention and possibly setting car alarms off (my record is about 20ft away) underload through 2nd gear sounds better than anything else ive heard though worried im not going to pass the DB tests at the autodrome trackday next weekend
-
see i think i would prefer a left then right hook to the face than being kicked square in the balls but then i guess thats just my preference., Zedrush, any thoughts on who might like to supply said brake items. envy dont seem to supply anything but endless (which look nice but cost 60% of a FI install) and ESR for obvious reasons arnt responding at the mo.
-
the last person i saw with one large turbo went down the 1/4 mile slower than my stock zed admittedly it looked like it may have been running incorrectly in some respect but still... two twin scroll turbos would be better im sure
-
nobody likes fluid surge
-
lol, it is LOUD, as i mentioned before i keep the bungs in most of the time, the noise is awesome though, video/sound doesnt do it justice at all...
-
what is the ESR big brake kit? their own or rebranded?
-
ill have a look, i have some m8s down there too, thanks Mr Fiddy
-
i think the car looks awesome as standard (apart from the wheels) so im more leaning towards performance for me, trying to spend money with anyone at the moment is proving to be difficult though, its as if people dont want to take it off me on the list suspension - possibly sway bars depending on how this goes... big brake conversion (prolly stoptech) front splitter rear diffuser k&n intake FI remap stripped interior bucket seat/4 point harness spare set of alloys/tyres probably in that order with the first two in the frame right now.
-
i put the zed up for sale, so i took the k1 off and put the standard back on , i then having had a few silly offers coupled with prospects at work looking up decided to keep the zed, so ive refitted the K1 It has made a fairly obvious performance increase over the standard exhaust, im told this is probably the Y pipe but it is noticeable. I am now trying to buy the kw suspension and a few other goodies but cant find a single person anywhere in the midlands willing to fit and get the geometry/alignment setup done for me, which means, i may end up in sunderland again (500 mile round trip) which in turn means, i might as well get a few other things whilst there... Track day 29th though so running out of time...
