This Could've Been Expensive: Peak District Road Trip
Today you join us in the Peak District as myself and a few other insane performance cars take on some of the risky, and best driving roads of the Peak District, including Winnats Pass and the Snake Pass, and when I say risky, I mean for lowered cars! Within the first 15 minutes I nearly lost my splitter, we blocked a road, and I even bottomed out the car once or twice.
Apart from this, we had a grand day out, haha!

    you should defiantly take it to us at sccon to a auto solo or auto test if its not a road legal car as auto solo is for road cars auto test is non legal cars its loads of fun i compete. decent little track car. they aren't the most tuneable cars out there but they are pretty cheap and with it all striped out i bet it would be alot of fun. I'm tempted to do a track day in my Micra im sort of on edge about it but hopefully i can join you one day on track. my mum used to have one of these lol when it was brand new but it wasnt a st and it was a purple one not too many purple cars about now. these are just some suggestions on parts obviously don't have to do them all at once all at all as for the exhaust system you could get a sports cat and a cat back that will make it sound better without breaking the rules on sound. cold air induction you might get a better sound with also better throttle response and better performance if you do it right as for the interior you probabbly want bucket seats a harness and probably a small diameter steering wheel as you mentioned maybe a roll cage. as for tuning parts your want to focus on handling like i have been doing. upgrading suspension parts, struts, anti roll bar and wider wheels that fit wider tyres maybe you can then get some fender flares to tidy up the wheel gap and so it can pass a mot.

Some export dealers are actually cheaper than auctions. My latest purchase which is very similar price to your example price. £5296.82 will cost me £8550 on the road, that includes mot and registration fee. The reason I buy is the complete lack of rust.

    Thanks for your video. I agree almost everything, except for a couple of things. For the fourth mod, with the Evo 8's stock turbo, with full 3" exaust line, the power is usually around 350hp with gasoline. If you want to use E85, you need to upgrade the injectors. On the other hand, I do not see the need to change the stock ECU. Before that I would put a lot of things, (better tires, better brake pads, metal hoses, sway bars...)

      I spose it's based on what I use the car for. After the track day, if I did more in the Evo, then I'd definitely want pads changed, more track orientated tyres etc.

    I’ve got a MK7 running 345bhp and a quaffe diff, it’s unreal! However ive been told the mk8 handles better at higher speeds and the front end feels more planted.

      That sounds mega! My tuner has a 420bhp track car Mk7. The 8 is better up to stage 2 from what I've read but then the extra cylinder on the 7 just destroys the 8 from there.

    haha got the same problem with my gears, but its my 2nd that wont go in for a bit, just wants the rev to drop then it will go in when its still cold, my reverse is 80% okay, my picky this are the foot pedals, don't really like them that much.

    I've had 4 mitsubishi Evo's over the years. When I was looking for a new car I wasn't prepared to pay the stupid money for another Evo so I got the Focus RS. Had it two and a half years now. I feel it's the modern day successor to the Evo. Similar to drive but with a nicer inerior and lots less rust :)

    • @dominichills
      @dominichills Місяць тому

      That's the only downfall of my Evo, not wanting to take it out in rubbish weather lol. The RS is such a good car, glad you're loving it 💪
