cheezeitthedog Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 OK now technically this is my Dads car but since I learned to drive in it I'm going to claim some ownership. It is a 1990 Renault 5 GTT Raider. Mods are considerable lol. That I know of its ben lowered all around 30mm, full turbo back system exhaust, changed alloys, full throttle gear shift kit, uprated ignition leads, big brakes, green stuff pads and a front strut brace. There may be more done but all I really do is drive it lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cheezeitthedog Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 Reliability issues I guess? Although this has been surprisingly good with no failures so far. Only one issue which was a belt snapping but that was routine and my Dad chose to let it break rather than fix it so he could keep going on the track lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cheezeitthedog Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 I love the rattly plasticyness. Apparently when I was a kid I used to throw little stones at the car because I liked the noise they made lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cheezeitthedog Posted May 11, 2008 Author Share Posted May 11, 2008 Lol well there is faster in the garage but Ill leave the true monsters for now just to heighten the anticipation lol. And Rick to be fair to the wee car she is ridiculously reliable. I mean like scarily! I know its French and should therefore kinda fall apart and break repeatedly but this one is surprisingly good so far lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
