A few new things to update.
Fitted new front tyres, Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 2. They have been getting rave reviews so gave them a try, they definitely live up to the reviews.

The brembo calipers are from an Alfa Romeo Brera 2.2 2006 onwards. They use a 305mm disc on the Brera but work ...

Re: Clap's vRS: Remap!
Went on a rolling road day last weekend, I'm very pleased with the figures and curve!

No other mods planned for a while, Looking to upgraded clutch and flywheel and fit an FMIC come summer time.

Re: Clap's vRS: Spacers
Fitted some spacers to it today, 15mm on each side on the front, and 20mm on each side on the rear. Sits much better now and also allows me to fit brembos on the front.
Also gave it a quick clean and a wax.

Re: Clap's vRS: Fresh Paint
Yeah Stage 2 is the plan.
Also plan to get super pro bushes all round and a rarb.
Although not until at least later next year as my insurance would just go sky high.
I travel 90miles a day. So really its perfect for what I need, and its always a joy to drive.

Good choice with the Piper Turbo back exhaust 8) top quality and british made too!
