Had a mk1 LCR splitter fitted, I think it makes the front end a lot more aggressive. I know it's no where near as good as a custom made splitter but there isn't enough people wanting one for it to be worth anyone making it!
Like this. A good alternative to getting a fr bumper and the tripple r one.

30p from your local dealer mate.

WeeG, that clutch looks like it's either stop or go!!!! I've just put an order in for a stage2+ SPEC clutch and SMF, now just waiting for it to wing it's way from USofA :D

Yep, 30p is what I got quoted at my dealership. I needed 9, paid for 2 and the rest got taken off cars ion the forecourt (not by me, the parts guy). I have a spare one for a locking wheel nut if anyone's interested....

Was considering a stage3 clutch myself but sometimes use her as a daily when I'm fed up of getting a lift in the missus micra. Then I saw the torque rating for the stage2+ - 456lb-ft, which ain't bad. If anyone else is considering this brand, then buy direct from the US. It's costing over £100 in delivery but still saving me close to £250.

Today was first service for FR 2010, only 19000km so changed of break fluid, was obliviously badly needed as the breaks are way smoother now.

Nothing major to report, got clean too !! with the crappy weather, it is nice to drive a clean car again without freezing my little fingers cleaning it myself.

Monday, new Bridgestone to be fitted on front.

What is the most used tyres with you guys?

Cheers

I've currently got Bridgestone Potenza S001's on the front & Michelin Pilot sport 3's on the rear.

when the Bridgestone's wear out, I'll be getting more Michelin's

Nice result Scott.
Mine already has some swirls and it is only three months old.
Looking to get a DA too. Why not!
