SECTs LCR Mk2 - SOLD!

[S.E.C.T.]

So...

Some bad news, the wrap has started lifting in places

Its going back to the garage on Monday to get fixed. Gutted but the guys who did it have been great and promised to fix it asap which is cool.

Got my other LEDs for the DRLs:

Chuffed to have the yellow lights completely gone - CraigD is a star!

Pic of my engine bay in the daylight, Carbon Speed Intake looks well nice:

Bought myself some carbon fibre vinyl today too ready for a mini-mod next week. Had hoped to get the wind deflectors back on today but will have to wait for the wrap to be redone - dont want the wrap guys leaning on them by accident!

Looks real good mate, the wrap should be done round the edges of that lip if they can, should prevent the lift and peel effect.

 

[S.E.C.T.]

Detailed the beast this afternoon - excluding the wrap (cant wash it for a week - its probably coming off anyway but took no risks)

 

[EL]

Looks great mate. Shame about the wrap coming off but at least it's getting sorted without any fuss

Hi mate how are you finding your bluefin now you've run it a few weeks?
Where did you buy yours and how much? I see jkm are doing them for £405 delivered.

Bluefin is awesome - you should definitely do it. I bought direct from Superchips. It was £455 plus £6 delivery.

On other news, my wrap is now sorted - cant take photos though due to the bad weather!

They rape you for £6 postage when charging that amount !

(For info, a remap at Evotune in Durham is £250 inc vat).

Its not just a remap that you get though, the Bluefin is a hand-set that you can use as a diagnostics tool to read engine code errors, immobilise your car, return the car to stock etc etc

 

[Marshall]

What fuel are you running on with your bluefin Vpower etc or normal 95 Ron?

[Marshall]

Was just curious mate I usually run Vpower or Tesco 99

Well loaded up and went for a spin and yeah transforms the power delivery to the point it was struggling to put all the power down 1st 2nd 3rd on a dry road.
It drives standard until you push on and 3000rpm to red line very fast and pulls so much harder. Not as powerful as a Revo map but very very worthwhile and for £405 delivered from JKM I would do it again.
I had Revo on my FR and the clutch slipped after 3000 miles this maps power is different and the clutch should be fine.
Performance wise 0 to 100 is seen alot quicker than before so as S.E.C.T says very good upgrade with the ability to switch to standard without touring around the country to a dealer.
Oh S.E.C.T thanks for the idea very pleased.

 

[S.E.C.T.]

No worries, Im well happy too. The power is phenomenal when you drop a gear to do a take over - its like a rocket!

 

[mds1256]

Did you ever get any number plate leds that worked as I want some for mine so if you did can you let me know where you got them from, thanks

 

[S.E.C.T.]

Sorry dude no, reg light FAIL!

So, woke up earlier this week to a plague of locusts stuck to my carbon fibre roof:

One of the weirdest things I have ever seen - no flies anywhere else. And this was 7am in the morning. They definitely were not there the night before because I had been out for petrol and was admiring the carbon under moonlight. Bizarre!

Anyways, they cleaned off with some detailing spray and microfibre cloth - hasten to add that the flies were actually stuck in the weave of the vinyl and left legs behind which needed some good scrubbing to take off. PITA!

I had ordered my some carbon vinyl you may remember from above, and completed my own mini-mod this week. I had the Leon stainless steel sill guards from my FR but they were battered after 2yrs abuse so I covered them in the carbon. Voila:

Liking the sills mate.

Those flies are weird!
