K20 FTW.. Essentially, more JDM than a Tsunami

Sorry I haven't been on that much recently guys, was away for a long weekend and work is becoming a time constraint beyond belief. None-the-less, thanks to Sun for posting the pic, I'll endevour to get some better/ arty ones soon. :)

I think some seriously huge brake calipers need chucking on those front wheels! ;-)

I'm not one for BBK's if I'm honest, I'm happy with the Spoon calipers, and plan to upgrade the discs at some point. I do like how BBK's look behind decent wheels, but I think my money could be better spent.

I'm not too sure, perhaps a pie?! :p

They look really good in the flesh and on the move.. I think the front could go a little bit lower though IMO. It went past me on my way home, and they look very nice indeed.

Front will indeed go a tad lower, in time.

That's the tits. Makes me want to go and spend a wedge on some wheels.

Do it. Kirsty might not approve though. :lol:

It just so happens..........

Jermal said:
Fcuk videos of your exhaust, I want to see pics of your trophy.

Don't worry Tony, I'll get some taken at the weekend. :)
 
Right, as stated above, I now (finally) have some more video footage of the RR. Enjoy. :twisted:

Apologies for the ropey quality in some of them; the other camera wasn't 1080p as expected.

Start up and idle.

Moving drive-by.

Stationary drive-by.

[video=youtube;uLLr4uJthpc]

Tunnel run from outside of the car.

[video=youtube;lAHhqF2vOD8]

And the piece de resistance, tunnel run from inside the car. Keep your ears open for the humour midway through. ;)

As always, comments welcome. :cool:

Those videos don't even come close to showing how loud it really is. My favourite noise it makes is when you come off the gas and stay in gear, you can hear it in the stationary drive by video.

Epic.

Thanks Scott, although you should have stuck around to leave with me after JAE. Or, thinking about it, I could have left with you and then went back couldn't I? Oh well, hindsight doesn't help me now ha!

Did your lady friend say she nearly threw up on the last vid :lol:

Sounds stupidly load/awesome!
Click to expand...

Yes. Yes she did. I had to hold back fits of laughter as I didn't want to ruin the video! :lol:

Actually makes me want another stupid loud car.

I'm sure it won't be long Scott. You'll have another one, I'd put money on it!

Very nice mate. Think the wheels top it off nicely.

Thanking you Chris. You'll just have to be patient for a tunnel run to see/ hear it for real. :p

Beard said:
No you're not.
Click to expand...

Haters. Gon'... :lol: No, in all seriousness, I am fully aware that it would never have been to everyone's taste and that's fine. I build my car for me, and I love it. But I will state (for Beard's benefit) that I also love the sound of V8's and above, yet seeing as I lust for an RS4 Avant but can't afford one, this is my joy on the other end of the spectrum if you will.

Someone else think if i saw that on a corsa or a clio id instantly think dirty chav? :\
Click to expand...

Perhaps. But then it's all down to opinion isn't it? If I saw a Clio or the like with a loud exhaust but only sporting a 1 litre engine then yes I would agree with you. But seeing something like this on a quality car holds a different stigma. Granted, alot of people will either think "WTF" or "chav idiot", but as stated, my car was built for me to enjoy. Sticks and stones and all that jazz.
 
you cant compare this to a clio / corsa.

a corsa with a straight through exhaust made of scaffolding is chavvy.
where as this is a tuned performance car.

Ah! BUT the issue with that is, nobody unless you read this thread would know it was a J's would they, tbh if i heard this go past and didn't know who it was, i would be like - 'bloody chav's buying CTR's putting my insurance up' :lol:

But as TarmacNymph say's he's done it for him and that's all that counts, *salute smilie* **** what everyone else thinks :D
