  3. New DS1.11 front pads, race brake fluid and DS250 rear pads fitted today, just need to bed them in tonight which should be fun. Oh, and 500ml of brake fluid is JUST enough!

    looks good, but would be better if the intercooler was black imo
     
  5. Done the service, engine oil+filter, air filter, spark plugs. Also changed out the front axle parts that are going from hub to wishbone, sorry dont remember the name of that part. But it is a huge improvement now, one of them was shot and it made massive clunk noise, evertything felt so loose. Now the car feels really tight and nice, im happy.

    Yeah here's a few more, just mainly videos from our gopros, and it pulls on mine however mines completely standard, on B roads can easy keep up due to not pushing too hard but not sure on the track though.
