Philplop Posted August 24, 2010 Report Share Posted August 24, 2010 He's usually pimping about in a van.Had a little drive of this the other day, expected the clutch to be quite unmanagable, but it really wasn't. Maybe slightly heavier than standard (or at least my standard one, as Foxy reckons mine is particularly light), but still very easy to control and manouvre .

foxy Posted August 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 what do you gain from fiting that?Not a great deal TBH, faster launches due to a stronger clamping force in the clutch plate. Thats about it for me as im not putting any power through it to warrent the 4 paddle friction plate. But i got it because i can...... this car is awesome, but i have never once seen you in crammy shall have to keep an eye out like.It spends its days sat on the drive, so you will probs never see me aboutHe's usually pimping about in a van.Had a little drive of this the other day, expected the clutch to be quite unmanagable, but it really wasn't.

GTi T Posted August 25, 2010 Report Share Posted August 25, 2010 Very nice mate,liking the direction your going in with this nowHow are you finding the 888's? i found them to be such a vast improvement than normal road tyres it was like comparing night and day i was very pleased with mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxy Posted August 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 The R888's are a fantastic tyre, when you get them nice and hot they really perform very well.I have also driven on Yoko AO48's and they are noticably better, but a lot more expensive. So the 888's are plenty fine for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxy Posted August 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2010 I have yes, when we had lots and lots of rain last week i went out for a drive to test them. They are pretty good giving excellent levels of grip as long as you are very smooth. When provoked there is a lot of understear, but that is to be expected, it is very managable and like i say you have to push it.Would'nt like to try them in standing water!!

foxy Posted September 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Those actully carbon? Shame they are not approved for motorsport.Yes they are actually carbon, weighing in at an entire kilogram.They dont need to be FIA approved, because they wont ever be entered into a race!

foxy Posted September 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 (edited) Fitted both seats today, they are weighing in at 6kg each, including the sub frames ive made. Havnt weighed the standard seats yet.Probs just leave them in for a week then get the frames powdercoated, keeping the leather untill i have a new car to be comfortable in Edited September 10, 2010 by foxy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
