    Akra Evo too quiet..

    Glad you’re warming to it, love mine. It does get louder over time and once hot it’ll pop and bang a fair bit.

    Brake refresh opinions

    You can bed them on the road, just go out late at night or early morning on a deserted dual carriageway ideally with roundabouts at each end and just go back and forth building the temps up.

    200 Vehicle type code

    CR0N I think.

    Camber tops

    I would stick to a round hole personally, even if it has to be bigger. Corners make stress risers and can allow cracks to start easier than circles. Mine have been enlarged for a few years now and haven’t needed any strengthening.

    Rentune Question and Specialist Recommendations

    As far as I’m aware Rentune don’t do maps anyway. You’ve got RS Tuning, EFI, Engine Dynamics or KTEC if you want it done properly. Just pick your nearest.

    Windscreen washer jets only works when rear wiper is turned on?

    I’d possibly look at the stalk for that, sounds like a wire is contacting only when the rear wiper is switched on. Was there not some guide about stripping them down somewhere? I know there’s one for the lights stalk. Would cost nothing to open it up and see.

    Another German

    Welcome along, it’s great to see overseas members. I’ve heard a bit about TUV, is it the case that it’s oem parts or only mods which have a TUV approval that are allowed. No way of getting unapproved things approved?

    Broken Coil Spring....and other bits & bats.

    No it certainly shouldn’t be crashing and clunking. Something sounds wrong for sure.

    Broken Coil Spring....and other bits & bats.

    Ideally you’d do both sides together, if ones gone the other probably isn’t far away.

    Bilstein b14

    As above really. ACF-50 and socks will help but if it’s just a track car you should be fairly ok as I’m guessing there’ll not be many, if any, road miles through winter. My old ones corroded quite badly even when coated in ACF-50 but they never seized.

    My LY 200

    They’re definitely better than the PS4 for both grip and longevity on track. Problem now though is the new version the AD08RS seems to get pretty poor reviews. I’ve not tried them myself but most people seem to think it’s a much harder compound that’s hard to get heat into. I’m not sure what...

    Minimum Brake disc thickness?

    One hell of a thread revival [emoji23]

    My LY 200

    60 front 40 rear. They’re perfect for road use, gives plenty of compliance over big bumps but is still very well controlled. I haven’t tired playing with the damper settings yet they’re all in the middle but it’s perfectly comfortable and handles very well. I’d guess I could have went a bit...

    Day insurance

    Just buy a full policy and then cancel it when no longer needed? 14 day cooling off period usually.

    My LY 200

    Well the car is fully back together for the first time since March and I’m well impressed with the AST’s definitely a big step up on b14’s. They cope so well with bumps, you can tell you’ve hit them but the car isn’t disturbed as much as it was with b14s. Raised the fronts a bit too as it was...
