[Chris_200CUP]

Only changing the drivers seat, just store it away for when needs go back in ever.


Yes, spent few quid but needs must lol No point doing something half heart'ed


215 tyre size, as when lowered hopefully it'll prevent any issues rubbing

 

[Chris]

Beauty of coilies is you can just wind em up a bit if you have any issues tho

Shame about the recaros, I'm after a set, was being cheeky haha!

 

[Chris_200CUP]

True yes but I'm having corner weighted .... So ideally you wouldn't want to move them

 

[Chris_200CUP]

Update -

Bilstien's turned up today, so going in for fitting thursday with full corner weighting and Geo Set up ( shimmed rears if needed)

Also Braided brake lines, with new brake fluid and bleed the clutch aswell!




Thought best give her quick wash sunday, why bothered though as its filthy again now lol

Bloody hell mate you don't mess about! Awesome upgrades, keep it coming and hopefully this time you won't sell

 

[Pav]

like the passion...looking forward to reading your review on the colies....

 

[Chris_200CUP]

Nope this ones staying!


Hopefully the front brake set up will be here for weekend do another job too tick off the list

 

[Chris_200CUP]

The bilstiens have been fitted, along with 1144 rear pads / new braided brake lines/ full brake+clutch bleed, but it all hasn't gone too plan. They found slight play in lower ball joint's so they are ordering me some Rsport ones in, when these been fitted they will do the full corner weighting and final GEO.

They have set car up so still usable and on a positive note car feel a lot better on the b14's. I had a run around the local roundabout few times and the car feels so much more flat and planted. Feels positive to drive but that can be down to GEO as well as that can make big difference to how car drives. the ride even feels better IMO. So 1st impressions are good but i'll go for good drive tomorrow.

It will settle its self after some driving it's sitting alot better now. Couldnt go lower as run risk of rubbing and catching. A

fter speaking to the the guys at bro sport, they have suggested trying to get some adjustable top mounts , so what are my options guys? Where and who does them?





With weather been abit better, dropped the gearbox oil tonight and put some fresh stuff in. It defo needed changing!

 

[Chris]

Smart ramp I like that!

Car sits lovely!

 

[Chris_200CUP]

Does sit well, likely to settle abit more aswell.

What class are you entering TA in?

 

[PAUL JA]

What class are you entering TA in?

Clubmans class N/A

 

[Chris_200CUP]

Yeh as above, it's the fast road / track day group so limited mods etc

 

[-Eddie-]

Looks great, and with every review of the Bilsteins I am seriously thinking they'll be my next major modification.

 

[TB Rich]

Cheers, do you know what mods are allowed? I quite like the idea of doing a OHW at Brands, but can't tell if I'd end up in clubman or club challenge?

 

[Chris_200CUP]

You'd Probz end up in clubman , but have email them and speak to them. Yours is not a race car or a serious track car like mine so can't see been club challenge.

 

[TB Rich]

You'd Probz end up in clubman , but have email them and speak to them. Yours is not a race car or a serious track car like mine so can't see been club challenge.

Yeah will do a bit closer to the time, you doing the full season then?
Also not being a cock here but what have you done to make yours a serious track car? I'm seeing full interior, road based coilovers and no engine tuning other than and exhaust and remap?

edit: dont worry, think I read that wrong - you're saying yours inst a serious track car! My excuse is I literally havent been up an hour yet! lol

 

[Chris_200CUP]

That's what saying, mine isn't . That's why in clubman group. If it was more track focused then I'd be
in club challange. (Ie full cage, full stripped, not road car)

 

[Chris_200CUP]

Been to oulton park and back.. But it's raining but I'm over all impressed with the suspenion. Defo improved the car, staysmore
flat under cornering or braking. It is a harder ride on rough roads but bound get that with any coilover. Just need few dry days now!

 

[Chris_200CUP]

Work In progress ....
