Good job swapping the seat bases over mate, my driver side is starting to feel a bit flimsy so I think I'll give this a go. Did you use blue locktight when refitting the bolts?

You finally got a thread up, good man. Car is looking good!

Quick update. Had my work done ages ago but have been to lazy to update my thread. First got the torque arm bush fitted. That was a pain considering I had no vice, took ages trying to prise the metal casing off the old bush. But it's in now and gear changes feel a little better, can't...

Hi mate, yes it will, most toe straps are universal. With our cars you need to make up a custom bolt to fit it. If you look back through this thread I've put up a guide on what you need.

Only just seen this Chris91 bloody gorgeous mate, bet your chuffed to bits with that. [emoji7][emoji106]

Notice any difference after cleaning the TB Pav?

Good job Pav! They look great.

Hi mate, that was me as I was in Dartford today having work done at two techs. What where you driving? Was this in the morning or afternoon. [emoji4]

Nice mate, I have those, great discs, plus they are 2kg lighter than standard. [emoji4] what brake pads have you gone for?

Looking good Pav. What's the durability of the wax like? I use dodo juice orange crush wax on mine. Looks stunning when applied, but only gives a few week protection before it needs re applying. Coming to an end now so may invest in a new wax soon.

We need to stop hijacking this thread but let us know what you remove. [emoji4] I'm thinking about creating a weight saving thread to list everything that can be lightened on our cars.

Yeah I think a subframe is a must, I'll probably get a slider. What side mounts are you using?

Let us know on your progress thread how you get on mate. I don't know he weight but I'd be interested to know. [emoji4]

Yeah may take a trip to tweeks too. I agree with you, although I have sat in the corbeaus and I do like them. 50mm-60mm sounds like a perfect drop. I guess you could use a slider as a spacer too?

Yes mate, the non full fat models don't come with them as standard anyway. Get rid unless you need it for a baby seat or boot net ect. Just keep the aerial on the back of as that will be for the keyless entry on your model.

Project 3 - 200 FF Cup It's not ridiculously heavy but its still unnecessary weight. Mine doesn't have one as standard because I have the lightweight cup model without any creature comforts. Yeah I'm gonna go to GSM Motorsport and test a few out before I buy. So what the seating position...

Project 3 - 200 FF Cup Wow 7.4 kg is light, so I imagine combined with your subframes/side mounts they weigh around 11kg so that's a approximately a 24kg saving. Not bad, if you do both sides thats a massive saving. I'm quite interested in the corbeau pro series or revolution seats atm...

Very interesting read mate, any idea what sort of weight saving you made with the bucket seat? I know the recaros weigh around 35kg which is very heavy.

If your looking around that sort of price range you could also look at the scorpion system. The Ktec and the Miltek both sound nice. They aren't too over the top loud as they have a resonator silencer in the centre pipe. My personal opinion is these cars sound better with a resonated system...

That's ok mate, I can imagine it's hard modding whilst being a student, your doing well to afford and run a 197 though. [emoji4][emoji106] I think the Clio looks perfect with red calipers, although something likecandy purple is different and could very look good. The plans look good. I...
