All done for 2017...hoping to just fit an frp boot, lexan rear screen, RK rear wing and maybe a half cage in the new year. Been a while since I updated and lost my thread! quick image upload
Would a big wing like that on the back of an fwd car help or hinder? I would have thought it would push the back end of the car down...meaning the front wheels on the other end of the pivot would be less inclined to grip?
Yes. They are the RK Design vents, they draw out a surprising amount of hot air. The naca duct on top hits the exhaust side of the turbo.
What do you mean by big wing? Car has the stock 250 wing to go on. Have thought about more rear aero as the back is light but loathed to add weight! I have the Flow skirts to go on, they should help a little with stopping air from going under the sides but doubt by much and they're 3.6kg.
Agree! Despite it being a limited edition, it’s still a Renault after all and in Oz depreciates faster than a stock market crash. The only ones which might hold their value and possibly increase are the ones that will be stored and never driven. And that’s certainly not mine.
Sorry I thought your previous rear wing post was something you were doing rather than something you were considering. When I see something like that on a fwd car I think of my local McDonalds I find it interesting that these skirts and splitters do make a difference I thought they were all the ricer mods that give the impression of performance (the car equivalent of a lard monster like me in gym gear).
I'm sure a lot of these things help if done right, even if it's a small amount. Splitters do work and my car is definitely not for show. I will report on the benefits when I've had chance to use it more.
Not sure, not right now anyway...whole car could do with a wrap or a respray, especially the front end with stone chips. I used to have FRP doors and boot on my old Clio and I just left them gelcoat.
Now you need a proper rear wing to to stabilise the back end of the car if your front splitter is providing you some down force. May have some pics for you on this soon
Little update although lots of things have changed in reality...FRP doors fitted with P4P front lexan, will get them painted soon enough. Also swapped out the V2 Flow with the V1 as it's less aggressive. I'm currently working on additional cooling up front, hence the holes! Oh and the carbon mirrors...they're new.
Won't cool much without the top part of the bumper to actually direct the air [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
