  1. The COBB is the 'must have' mod. with the new version including TCM support you would be mad to look at anything else. many people have run either mail order tunes or custom tunes with impressive gains reliably on both the street and track. do it!

  4. you havent pulled a sneaky one and tossed in those HKS turbos yet have you Drew? they are getting some nice numbers over in the US.
  5. looks great Drew, will we see the car out at QR on the 23rd?
  6. It is a very good car and has proven itself very tough and reliable throughout. It is faster and more capable than many people predicted. The transmission is only a problem if you are either unlucky or excessively harsh on it. Stories of transmission failures have been blown a little out of proportion.
  7. awesome, thanks
  8. yep, pics n vids please! gotta see what I'm missing out on....
  9. last round at QR Tuesday 23rd November. who's going. hoping to crack into the 55's on the clubman!

  12. unfortunately not this year Duncan. next year I will be trying to get out to more events. you guys will need to take plenty of pics and video so I can live vicariously through your lives. I need to start a thread in this section "how to maximise track time: tools and techniques to convince the Mrs."

    sure would love to get down into the 55's! no easy task. I need bucket loads of track time. I will head out there on the Paul Stokell days but he only runs a few events out there every year. seeing as I can only get out on the track on weekdays normally, which track events should I get to? I see trackattack has some weekday lakeside days in their calendar but have never attended one of their events. any others I should try? would love to get out there once a month and out at QR once a month

    We haven't taken the existing doors and hood off yet. I am estimating from information off the internet/manufacturer about 5-6 kg for each door frame and about 6-7kg for the hood. The big savings on the doors is removing the door skins, rearview mirrors and motors for the windows and the glass. These carbon pieces are reasonably priced. Let me know if anyone is interested in getting some into the country.

    Check out nagtroc, plenty of wild builds over there. Noel, hopefully will save enough weight with the doors, hood and glass to offset the roll cage. Second part of the build starts on the 24th November!

    thats because I was driving like an old woman lol I was going about 80% I reckon. I need to turn off traction control, which is more intrusive at lakeside than it is at QR where I push it harder due to oodles of runoff. I only achieved a 59.28 on the day. the car should be putting out 56.xx
