Not sure on the Revo sticker.  Its a great sticker, just not sure it looks right.  Might be a grower.

2 things on that spec list doesn't belong IMO

KW Coilovers, replace them with some Bilstein for much better control
Michelin PS3, they have no way near the grip needed for this setup, at least get the PSS, if not Yoko AD08 or similar

I've run Bilstein's and KW's.

The KW Clubsports are superb and give a great combination for road and track and are a step up from the B16's...much better than the V3's.

Tom's done a nice job at TSR then?

Know him well when he was a young lad working with Tim and Graham Scott.....they built my 16V track mobile.

How are you finding all of that power with FWD?? Do you use the car as an everyday car?

Any plans for Castle Combe or other tracks??

 I was deliberating what to do with my Ed30....stage 2 or more or just sell and go 4WD something like a B8 S4 and go stage 2 or maybe RS4 but I do like the new S3 or Golf R and their tuning potential.

i have decided on the clubsports mate  :happy2:

Tom has done and excellent job mate.. couldnt be without him with this car and really local to me aswell

tbh its not that bad but i havent tracked it yet so couldnt really say, in a straight line it hooks up well and does take off.. but its not running full power still yet and no lsd or 888's when its on the road next it will have a better chassis setup

its not an everyday car just a toy.. but i have faith this setup would be quite reliable in a road car as an everyday if you wanted to

and it should be at combe a fair bit this summer

I have a used set of clubsports here for sale.  Fronts have just been rebuilt at KW at the cost of £450!  They are the VWR spec clubsports.

On my second set of Clubsports. Had a set in my old Ed30 for over two years with no problems....they were brilliant hence why UI went for a second set in my latest Ed 30. Big step on from V3's.
