Aron spoke to k-tec today, good news is the spoiler has been dispatched and should be with me today :panic: bad news is the spoiler doesn't come with the STD endplates. I was quite annoyed by this really, as if I had known I probably wouldn't have paid all that extra for the carbon end trims!

Yes pain in the a**e how they bump their prices :( I just know I wont be doing it again for a long time so thought might as well splash out! :bye2: money

I will sleep in my car and she can have my bed if that's what it takes for you to come :rofl: !

Yes mate €45 pppn. Including breakfast. I haven't paid a deposit or anything though...

Ha lol that's one reason, and I want somebody else I have met to come! (oh and the track tips) I've already got my copy of gran turismo 4 out to learn the ring racing line :)

The componant speakers are comprised of the door speakers and tweeters where as the coaxials are just the matched pair in the rear. I'm afraid I'm not sure which connection you mean, photo?

Haha that's brilliant. Now where's my cat...

That would be perfect if you could! I'll keep my fingers crossed and ears to the ground!

Are you definately coming to the ring? :panic:

@A2ON - No delivery date, but they said they should be dispatching it by the end of this week. I'm going to call them tomorrow to confirm. I will also ask about the end plates! @Mike - yay! I wasn't sure if me and eddy understood each other on the phone! T-Minus 6 weeks.

Haha, wish I had!

Haha, like the irony!

im not shy to put my boot down, thats why I bought this kind of car (im sure im not the only one), so I do really enjoy the thrill of a road race! For example the other day a motorbike came hurtling up my a**e, so I booted it on this stretch of twisy tarmac. He kept up, but couldnt get past...

Cheers mate :) not sure about the steering wheel detail. Not sure I'm happy with the fit but we will see! I get excited everytime the postman comes because I keep thinking, speakers/spoiler! I think if your experience was anythin to go by I have a lot of dissapointment ahead of me!

:welcome: dan. haha and me! I expect dan will have a nice progress thread given time!

Happy birthday!

Front speakers are 5.25" or 13cm componant. Rear are 5.25" or 13cm coaxial. However, I have the cup to and you will find when you take the rear covers off there isn't much depth. So when looking for speakers try find some without the large magnet on the back or you will have a job on your hands...

Yes fuel consumption isn't the best, but I knew that buying the car. I suppose it's what you get from a n/a engine that only comes to life between 5k-7.5k rpm. I average about 25mpg, however I find even if I floor it, short shift at about 5.5-6k rpm and fuel consumption goes down to about...

Nice work mate! I'm glad somebody is giving the 197 the care and attention it deserves. Bet that rear 1/4 panel was a b*****d to fit. Doesn't it require welding to body? Good effort though, you can't tell any difference, good as new!

haha, to true! I'm thinking about starting to order my brake kit, even though I don't really want them until middle of June!
