mick-fr's Old Ibiza FR TDi.... Now Megane F1 R26! (Pg10)

[mick-fr]

It's like driving a rocket haha

Why not get some 15mm ones instead? that's what chino has on his i think with no rubbage

Haha.. Probably drinks petrol like a rocket too!
Yeah I suppose 15 might be better... but they will be nearer the end of the list. Whiteline RARB will come before them I think

Car is looking good matey

Check my Readers Ride to see what it looks like with just the FR badge on, i also debadged the TDI ones from under the side indicators

Keep up the good progress

Cheers mate! Yeah I think you've made my mind up on the debadge.. They're coming off when the weather gets better!

Love the look of the car Mick.

Id love a 1.9 diesel with the torque and tuning potential, the 1.4 will do for now though

Thanks mate

Yeah I've heard the 1.4 is pretty nippy for what it is, keep that for a while then move up when you want more power

 

[Deleted member 13581]

Cars looking well.

 

[mick-fr]

Cheers mate! Haha. Hows the Octy treating you?

 

[Deleted member 13581]

Very well. Couple of changes since you will have seen it last. (check below) Need to catch up again.

 

[mick-fr]

Good to hear mate. Yeah I think it was standard when I last seen it haha, at The Fort with John? Bet it doesnt half shift now its mapped!

 

[Deleted member 13581]

Bet it doesnt half shift now its mapped!

Yeah that would be it. Must have just got it then.

Whats next for yours then?

 

[mick-fr]

Yeah you had.

Belt and service haha. Then once I'm back from holiday should be: 312 brake setup, Whiteline rarb, remap, rear tints (50% or something, not too dark), maybe a set of spacers although I dont know how these would go with the adjusters out and possibly a new set of wheels

Then maybe go for S/S FMIC, hybrid turbo etc etc, but that will atleast be the following year!

 

[Kryptix]

Lovely car!

 

[mick-fr]

Lovely car!

Thanks

and possibly a new set of wheels

Let me know if you if you do, is it too early to call shotgun? haha.

Haha! I'll probably keep the standard wheels if/when I change them. Need a set of winter wheels to take the bad weather

No recent updates due to other things swallowing all my money

The "other things" is either...

1) Christmas!

or 2) a rather expensive girlfriend that spends money faster than you can earn it!

Oh yes, I'm a mind reader

All four!
You really are an unlucky man!

 

[mick-fr]

I know... shall all be sorted in due course though!

1) Christmas - Out the way
2) Gf spending more money than I earn - Never going to change
3) Holiday - Only a few more months to go!
4) Timing belt and Service - Have the cash here, just need to book it in
