Rick Astley's son's hair was bouncing around a lot more in the MK5. Good old BC Racings  :grin:

Poor old Granddad MK5 trying to get down with the kids at the club. Looked out of it's depth really.  That's evolution for you.  It's like putting a current 911 GT3 RS against a 20 year old one. Fun, but daft  :grin:

Both of them on the Ring, the R would be a full minute faster probably  :grin:

Clarkj93:
Enjoyed watching the series but... I'm certain if they didn't just do the equivelant of bolting on whatever the clueless sales rep at any performance parts supplier would suggest then it would be quicker :grin:

pudding:
I didn't finish watching the series. So they upgraded the brakes on the 5  and the much heavier R still stopped shorter?  :grin:

Did they fit ARBs?

The 5 did well to be fair, but it was just a rubbish track and a 4WD car with more power and torque vectoring is so going to trounce most FWD cars, except maybe a Civic Type R  :grin:

GVK:
From memory they fitted

BC coil overs
S3 345mm brakes
Nankang NSR2 tyres
Milltek sports cat (Already had a Milltek cat-back)
Revo intercooler
Revo intake
Revo Stage 2 + map

Think thats about it.
