Apologies if I didn't send you a link to the full fitting instructions (that normally comes in the box) - there's a bit in there about the screw fixing points.

Glad to hear you're really happy with it!
Wonder how much extra downforce you'll be getting around the track...? Image
I like a good challenge ;) nothing is unsolvable. The fit was almost perfect. Nice and snug. As for downforce.... I think it will help but like I said before only at speeds above 100mph.. if only there was and easy way to measure this ha ha.
If you have a digital version of the instructions, could you send it to my email please? Just want to compare and see if I missed anything or messed something up in the only way I knew how lol. Info.krylov@gmail.com

Well tidy!!! Love it! Image
If anyone know someone who can simulate downforce force with some kind of software wizardry, I am all ears!

Nice mate. Did you notice any difference with the diffuser? Also, why don't you go above 7k rpm very much? Just an honest question :thumbs:

The car was very good and stable even before the diffuser. So even if it did increase anything, I don't think I felt much. It needed to be tested in same track, back to back. Something I did not do.
I tend to shift around 7.5k there isn't much point going above that. +it's my daily so always beeing careful.
Ps. Messages don't work. Put me as a maybe for Wales. Really don't know at this stage

Nice vid dude - love the graphics

I had a look at Harry's lap timer, looks great but got bamboozled by all the options. What version did you go for, and which accessories?

so finaly had some time to record a little video of the Full JcWeldFab exhaust that i had fitted last week.
originaly was planing to go only for the back boxes but at the end decided to go for a full system.
to say i am happy is an understatement.

its a full system with 2.5" stainless. straight downpipes to 200cel cats, x-pipe section than 2 secondary silencers and finished of with 2 oval black mufflers with valves.
its a work of art.! unfortunatly cant upload pictures just yet but here is the video.

not sure how it will sound on mobile devices but fully recomend watching it with LARGE speakers :)
Love that low down grunt it has. Good video and good to see a video like that..
Stage 2 mrc, Pre cats removed, Milltek Resonated, Bilstein B14 Coilovers, MRC De carbon, Deflapped MRC, RR 434BHP, Pandora alarm system, 8mm Rear spacers
Cold air feed, Refurbed caliper colour change, Carbon piller, Carbon dash ends

Wow I can't believe it's been 5 months since any update lol.
Had some time this weekend from my other toy ;) Image

Finally fitted the carbon rings I had laying around.
Decided not to use double sided tape but instead use some M5 bolts and epoxy them in place. ImageImageImage
Also replaced lenses and repainted the lip. Never really liked black I did before. Decided all should be sprint blue! And oh boy I love the results!
ImageImageImage
Also cleaned air filter. Toped up the oil. And put standard seats back :) which I actually did about a month ago :)
