    How does that make them Balloon tyres? He's running bigger wheels with them. And what difference does that make seeing them travel further into the arches than I would have imagined? Also, turns out he had them of the softest setting.

    Milton Keynes Karting Meet?

    Fast Karts if possible.....hopefully reduce the weight disadvantage

    Has anyone had their corners weighted/balance at all and how much of a difference it makes?

    Yeah, even though the 1234y gas is mega expensive, it's supposed to last a very long time, a couple of years doesn't cut it so like Carver, I'd get your dealer to have a look for something suspect rather than a simple regas.

    Thanks Ade, that's what I'm thinking and willing to give it a go. Regarding the travel, this is according to Tein themselves - https://www.tein.co.jp/e/special/ni_toryu/ because the mono tubes has the gas chamber inline with the piston, you loose a bit of travel where as the twin tube has the gas chamber between the two tubes technically allowing more travel.

    Hmmmm sadly Tein want £84 per pair of springs even upon ordering brand new I've enquired around and Rich from RRG has ask.....why not go Flex A's but with stiffer springs? After seeing Will's car driving slowly down the pit lane and seeing his wheels disappear into his arches (yeah he's quite low but I didn't think they'd move that much especially at low speeds) I've kinda dismissed the idea of Flex A's, but now I'm wondering if Flex A's with stiffer springs would be a good choice? They've got the fancy hydraulic bump stops, according to the theory behind twin tube, they technically have more travel......so why not?

    There's a midland meet on the Saturday morning, what time we thinking?

    I was under the impression this would depend on how much you lower by, lower too much and you would need adjustable ones.

    I'd prefer the racing sim but I'll be up for Karting too if I'm free.

    I managed to build up some courage to turn everything off towards the end, a good track for it.

    That's true Kev but that would only be for this year, Jeff has spoken to Adrian and they're contemplating changing that rule since it's a lil extreme compared to those who could potentially strip out the interior etc. but at the same time, not overly fussed, I've had some nice battles with Mike but it's never really been about the competition to be fair, it's great to win (well....2nd place anyways :P) but majority of the times, I'm there to improve myself more than anything else.

    What about BC's? They do the inverted RM series and the ER external reservoir series.....anyone had any experience of them?

    Thanks everyone for their knowledge and insight, lots to take in. Coming from a Clio with the Cup Pack, I'm quite used to a hard ride, even the current HSD's aren't as stiff but you can still definitely tell. Does one need to pay for the Tein to change out the springs when ordering them?

    Brake discs at the same time as new pads?

    Sounds about right, luckily they were on my old stock fronts and I'm sure the rears have bedded in by now.

    Brake discs at the same time as new pads?

    I changed just my pads to the Stoptech pads and I wasn't always overly confident with them, as you might remember, I've mentioned before that they sometimes stopped very well but then other times it would feel like it didn't want to stop at all. When I think about it, my discs had a slight lip to the edge so I've always wondered if that lip of the disc contributed to this feeling.
  22. It's been a while but I finally pulled my finger out and continued with my mods....nothing major, a PasswordJDM carbon fibre pulley cover, smoked valenti side repeaters and a new HKS air filter to replace my 3 year old one which as you can see.....is a lil.....used. All pretty easy to fit bar the side repeaters which I ran into the same issue as we had when we tried to fit the ones to Faith's car not too long ago. The issue being that the top clip that has a bent piece of metal that is designed to squeeze into a hole and then open up slightly to hold the light in place, sticks out too much making it near impossible to push the light in securely enough, instead I had to get a pair of pliers to clamp the metal clip back a bit to allow it to fit securely. Also, for anyone who might be interested in the Password JDM carbon fibre pulley cover, they are dry carbon parts with a quick coat of a fade resistant resin, it's not a wet carbon with a nice thick gel coat so don't be surprised if you see bits of the resin missing, PasswordJDM have said themselves that this is how it is. There are more things on the way but I'll save those for my next post.

    Yeah the updates not looking good, I've had various mons run on me, most annoyingly 2 that I've never captured before and that were high level but even after a raspberry and spinning some great balls the buggers ran, even some low level ones ran on me too. But I've read some people updated and got reset back to level 1 from 20odd [emoji33]

    Was that proven? I've seen people try and prove that but couldn't figure it out. I was under the impression that it just pulsate whenever the list changed.
