Next time try mounting the camera to the driver's seat, your body stops the seat back from vibrating so you get nice clean videos
Either that or carry a passenger....

That was with a passenger. It maybe that my suspension is very hard on track settings, so I'm going to see if I can find a damper of some kind to sit between the camera and the mount.
Unfortunately I have lost all the footage anyway, as it seems the SD card was corrupt! Very annoying, I'm still trying to recover it but it isn't looking promising. Brand new card as well

What a pain!Really strange to hear you got a lot of vibration, was making smooth videos when I was on track on FK coilovers.

Hope you manage to get a solution for the rattle. I wonder if its the headrest rattling in its holes?

Just watched your video, and that is much smoother than mine was. Although on coilovers you still have the benefit of the standard shocks I guess. I've got the KW Clubsports which have settings from "Hard" to "F*****G Hard"

lolI was on the Konigsports which have the adjustable Konis, they were set to the firmest setting. I certainly reckon they were still softer than your Clubsports and their proper track settings!
Maybe try swapping the mount to the driver's seat, see if it might point to a headrest post rattle on the passenger seat?
Well having owned this car from new pretty much, (ex demonstrator) coming up on 6 years this May today I had the very first coil pack failure. So I can't complain really.
£135 later and 10 minutes work and all 4 are replaced as a precaution, fault codes deleted and ready for another 6 years. (maybe!) But i have 3 spares now to get me out of trouble if I need them.
Next stop, the new Snetterton 300 circuit at the end of March.

Good, news, you are human, lol.
Mine were the same, almost 7 years without a failure but all 4 failed in quick succession post mapping.
Finallly I have been catching my car up with your cars spec.
As I've said before one of my favourite cars on here.

Welcome back to the forum
6yrs for me also and then cylinder 4 went, followed by cylinder 2. They seem to work as 1 & 3, 2 & 4 if that makes sense. I carry one spare in the boot now.

Yep, that's what I heard too. Mine was No 4 that went as well.
You're too kind!!
But I'm still not at the stripped out and plastic windows stage like yours. But soon, I promise!
OH GOODY!!
I hope to make it to Oulten park this year so will give you a shout to see if you can make it too
That would be good. It's a bit of a trek for me but it's on my list of "tracks to do before I die"

My very first coilpack failure happened to me on the way to work after having the car for just 4 months. I limped it to work which was another 5 mins away and got vagcom on it. Guess what, cylinder 4. So I borrowed a mates spare coil pack which got me home and I bought 4 new coilpacks and spark plugs next day. I always carry two spare with me

Bizaar! What is it with cylinder 4 then?
I notice you have a 3" TIP Brad. Do you notice any difference or are you just preparing for a BT conversion?
