It came to me in a dream... But seriously, the advert came on tv and it just clicked. My mind is now at rest
-
Sam, I MAY have the answer to this....Clicky: "Tell it to my heart" by Taylor Dayne, just the initial part of the chorus of the Black Eyed Peas song
-
Haha, I know....its the first one I found too , but then saw Comp Brake and all came back to me!
-
That is most odd - I don't believe its turbo as it'd be a higher frequency sound than that, with it spinnig far faster than road/engine speed...it does happen higher up the rev range which leads me to think, do you rest your foot on the clutch pedal at all, just before you change gear?
-
Nope, that's not them, its Comp Brake! Found them: Clicky

I think it may be the company that Toby was going to start selling kits from, but I can't for the life of me remember the company name - they apparently are quite well known in the Motorsport circles, though I personally never heard of them (obviously the better financed companies like Alcon, Brembo and AP Racing are more prevalent in those sects), not that I claim to know everything that goes on in Motorsport Worth a shot I guess, quite well priced from what I remember, 4 piston calipers at the front
-
I don't ;] But in all seriousness, I did buy a comprehensive range of the Meguiars "NXT" products, was not impressed by it to be honest, the microfibre towel though was pretty good
-
Good luck with the slightly ignorant comments like the above...you're not going to improve any track times if you think just chucking a load of parts at the car and driving like a loon will get you good lap times. Also, my mistake, I thought you were Idrees somehow with the avatar

I'm not as TGTT will be there, and it's 2 days before I leave to Saudi ;[

Did you find her on the surface of the sun?
-
yes, make sure you get the droplinks as well (incase they differ, I don't know with the n/a)
-
Neither down Sarf, but Bildo brought some from Essiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiix, of all places
-
You can find them in Sainsburys and the usual supermarkets too
-
The Glanza will be Shellypies!

Ofcourse you can have fun in a standard car, you're looking into the "Track car stereotype" aspect a bit too seriously - ofcourse if people want to improve their vehicle characteristics and longevity on track then modifications are a requisite, but if you reckon their a necessity to get on track, you're only pretending to yourself that you know what you're doing in that scenario - trackdays aren't as taxing as people believe them to be on their cars for timing and proving yourself to the world, infact, timing is illegal at most trackdays. Want to prove yourself? Join a time-attack series. Yo

Sam, like, literally, my body aches for a trackday, its been nearly 4 years....it aches almost as much as it does for you....*drool*
-
Wisest answer ^^^ You don't NEED uprated anything on the track at all, you're on track to have fun and explore your vehicles behaviour and your ability, you're not doing a time attack, trying to eke out every last millisecond. The only real necessity of a trackday is to ensure the vehicle is well serviced, and that's it - granted, brakes are known to suffer on track but as long as they're well maintained, the stockers will be fine - I've NEVER had fade on any trackday (even Lydden Hill which has some downhill braking points), and my car was considerably heavier than the Starlet at that point

just remove the stud with some pliers, buy a new one, put it in finger tight, and its done. Alternatively, you can use a bolt if it'll fit with the downpipe!
