  1. I never got involved with the caterham well only had it for a few weeks before I got an S2 111s. It may have been Goodwood that I recognised the car from. I used to go to the breakfast meets every month

  8. I had a first hand experience of this thanks to Colin, The syncro-rev sounds awesome. Bet you can`t wait to drive through Petworth (AKA the village of walls) on the Christmas Cracker Special with the new exhaust

    Decided!

    I do really rate them, when on a reasonable budget, very dusty though If I was to do it all again with the zed I would just "get it spent" and get a BBK would have worked out cheaper in the long run. I`ve blown many thousands on Zed brakes in the last 3years

    EBC discs poo. Yellow stuffs Excellent I have tried many Brake combos including the DBAs & Ds2500s I found the Ds2500s a good pad until you get on track, they are quite a hard compound so wear the discs quickly & do not disperse heat very well. But put some YellowStuffs on with the DBAs & you will be fine
  12. I`m hopefully picking up a set of Gloss Black Rays on Sunday, I `ll post up some pics on this thread when I get them fitted
  13. The SPORT settings will make it more aggressive you will want the ECONOMY setting. which wont help much as if you floor the throttle you still get full power. I think Gary needs to just chill a little & respect the car a bit more. Ive been driving powerful RWDs for years now & never manage to have the tail let go on me without my full consent the zed is the first with ESP & TC which can make people lazy If your not confident with your own car you should get yourself on a driver training course of some sort.
  14. Neil you CAN get it comfortable with fine tuning to the Compression and Rebound. Camber and toe kits are also only required if your drop is excessive. If you went for a moderate drop (say 20mm) then there is sufficient adjustment on the the rear camber and toe to compensate for this and the front camber will still be within factory recommended tollerences, so expensive aftermarket camber and toe kits are not always required. Regarding the set up for your car, I can assure you that a compromise can be reached to give you the ride comfort that you are looking for when on track and road. However adjustment is very easy on the KW3 and only takes minutes to adjust the compression and rebound. Alex. I run adjustable coilovers on my sc mx5, after finding my ideal ride height (just high enough to get over the usual speed bumps) got the alignment sorted then went about setting the compression & rebound settings. I now have 3 settings I use, Wet roads/cruising Dry/fast road & a balls out track setting simples
  15. Thanks James Although you will wish I didn`t when my Zeds shinier than yours
  16. Well done Chris, was in B&Q the other day, only wanted some cut off wheels £17.99 robbing
  17. Trying to light up the tyres is one of the best ways to destroy a clutch
  18. Hi Marty, Welcome along, I`m a fellow modded MX-5 owner
  19. I`m easy, not to worried where we stay, I`m sure if there is a group of us we can provide our own entertainment, all you need to do is supply me & Ian with alcohol
  20. Nice one Ian, good work I'll let you do mine on the 4th
