    Was at Bedford end of may. Paid *cough* for some really expensive photos Videos are on YouTube should anyone want to look out for themselves. 22nd May was the date I was there. Car went reasonably well. Developed a vacuum leak on the last run but went pretty well before hand. Sent from my...

    There is plenty of weight to come off me haha! The dash and airbags are still in along with air con so definitely more to go yet!

    Astra VXR Nurburgring Progress Thread

    Yeah I mean, once the driver is out of the weight equation, the fuel etc etc it's probably lost around 100KG. And you can save around 50KG with the front seats alone. The guys who do the work keep telling me to cut the inner shell out and strip all the wiring etc etc but a part of me wants to...

    That's the 1.4 weight, they got lazy and just put the same weight for all astras on Google. That's about right, but that weight includes one average driver at 75KG, 90% fuel in the tank ( around 35KG ) and a small amount of luggage and also the standard alloy wheels.

    Astra VXR Nurburgring Progress Thread

    To be honest, I can only see the weight going up now. I still haven't fitted the front mount which I expect to be heavier than standard. The LSD will add weight also. So I'll probably need to find more weight to get ride of off. The lads at Tegiwa will help me hopefully! They were on about...

    Astra VXR Nurburgring Progress Thread

    Main thing is to listen out for any gearbox wining. And also make sure no white smoke coming from the exhaust. Timing belt and water pump should have been done on it too so ask for proof of that. Last thing I'd do is Google the Astra pedal test. Do that and you'll see if there is any underlying...

    Corbeau Clubsport?

    Not mine bud I'm afraid. Mines a burg and pretty standard engine but had vectra vxr brakes, coilovers, NS2R tyres and weighs just over 1150kg with 277bhp. Stage 3 is the highest I'll go and just throw everything at handling and weight.

    Corbeau Clubsport?

    Not a Clio so don't flame me haha but just fitted clubs ports into my car. In your position, I would buy them and put left over money towards other things you'd like to do to the car.

    Astra VXR Nurburgring Progress Thread

    Yeah gearboxes are weak, especially if you don't maintain the oil. The issue was the oil was overheating and becoming extremely thin and therfore damaging the bearings. You can now buy oil coolers for the gearbox now that solves this. Like most cars, you can upgrade parts for better...

    Black 182 Track Toy...

    Great read that. I note you've mentioned trailer license a few times. With what the Clio weighs now, dependant on your tow vehicle, you could probably get a trailer now and not need to do your license. I've got a Woodford 400KG trailer with a 1200KG car. I pull it with a MK7 Golf GTD so i...

    Astra VXR Nurburgring Progress Thread

    Hit and miss really mate, engine block wise they are pretty strong, normally the turbo components or the gearbox that gives up first, or in my case, the keyless entry system ffs!! Is the correct answer! I'm pretty confident the rollers were quite high for quoting figures, although it did give...

    400KG trailer 1150KG Astra. Trailer is plated to 1600KG too! It can actually Tow 1800KG but dependant on gradient so I've stuck to the 1600KG goal

    Battlefield 4

    Christ I only just figured out how to activate my XP boosts! So instead of just selecting my prefered weaponry I'm going through all the classes trying to unlock as much as possible which is working well. I just need to be getting quite a few battle packs to unlock the rest! I find myself up...

    I had BF2 and then 3 on 360. Stopped playing because I didn't upgrade to next gen till like 3 weeks ago. Now got a ps4 and got BF4. Really struggling with the maps but I guess I just need get to know them and take the pain in the short term. What are the best game modes to rank up? Team death...
