No mate I sourced an M12 12.9 tensile bolt local. Fitted the mount etc all back up. I've also made another purchase....the KW clubsports that where actually on the car when I sold it which is a touch as I've had them from new and also have the raeder spring rates etc on so gave them a clean up and ready for fitting Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
Ahhh ok. I’m going to do this I think as a precaution. Read about this before I got one. KW’s what are they like on the road?
how would you compare the KW clubsport vs the AST 5100 ... track/road ? p.s. my concern is , if the rear transformation of a coilover given by AST, provides better results than the standard setup by KW-OEM one ? both road and track
Never tried the AST so I can't be objective. I found the Clubsport so good on my 197 that I bought them for the Megane even before I knew which Megane I'm going to buy. [emoji23] And if you want a more track oriented setup go to Raider motorsport for their tune up. I'm using the Meg mostly for road and got it setup great for my kind of use.
That's dedication mate - Can't really say it yet 100%, but I think I'll be using meggy 65/35 road/track
Was really impressed how Clubsport performed against the KW V3 on my 197 and I knew I wanted them on my 265 Cup. [emoji41]
I think they are great, my only worry with the AST is the amount them that need servicing or rebuilds. I know a few who have had them fail and need a rebuild after not much use Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
So another month and another set of wheels...this time SSR Type F 18x8.5 et48 absolutely perfect for Megane. I also got this drawing done by a chap on Instagram who I met at autosport which I'll be having done on a big canvass for the garage Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
Looks awesome, can't wait to see them on your car. Getting them repainted? Would a setup like that - 18x8.5 ET48 - work on a 250 without camber adjustment on the front?
Thanks, I'm torn between a couple of colours but maybe like my original enkeis a dark shadow chrome. Erm yes you'll be ok, it's very close to running 20mm spacers on stock wheels which many do Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
They are for the load ratings of 4 and 5 stud but for what ever reason the Wizards in Japan decided to out x100 haha is common on ray's wheels etc too Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
Ladies and gentlemen the SSR Type F in black chrome...18x8.5 et48 Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
So done track day at Donington 2 weeks ago and had an epic time although it was wet and very very slippery. New discs and a nut and bolt check done ahead of my track day at spa on Friday and TF laps at nurburgring on sunday Sent from my LYA-L09 using Tapatalk
Bastard minis holding me up haha. Bloody quick on the straight but bends not so much, he just needs some seat time in it I think Sent from my LYA-L09 using Tapatalk
Funny you should say that it's gone to a new home now, money in the bank for house stuff and a nice 360bhp dsg gti to piss about in Sent from my LYA-L09 using Tapatalk
Only a few months ago you said "Been there done that" when i said get another Megane on insta. Whats the deal with this one and an engine?
It's got most off my red car Pro alloy intercooler. Ray's prodrive wheels ad08r Superpro rarb Superpro bushes Vibratecnic mount Braided lines Forge Recirc valve ITG intake RS tuning map Miltek turbo back BC coilovers Engine was already blown in it when I bought it but I'll fit new one and get her out on track Sent from my LYA-L09 using Tapatalk
New engine arrived today alone with a box of parts from Renault Parts Direct and as usual epic service. Built up the new lump and done Cambelt, waterpump, dephaser, aux, plugs etc just need to fit new clutch then it's good to go. As you can see the old lump is toast Sent from my LYA-L09 using Tapatalk
Was mapped by engine dynamics, was bout 310bhp but no clue looks like its been over revved Sent from my LYA-L09 using Tapatalk
I should probably stop twatting the limiter then... not on purpose i must add. 4 years if 8.5k na goodness is hard to forget
Mate my red one used to be bounced off the limiter and was perfect [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] Sent from my LYA-L09 using Tapatalk
