Worn-out suspension parts can also attribute to magnify the vibrations. Does it have many miles on the clock?

I had 31 on the front and 30 on the rear on the R when cold. While driving the pressure rises and it usually went up to 34-36 PSI when warmed up.

Indeed. Good tyres and the pressure applied to them. Playing with the pressure also gives a lot of changes to ride comfort, agility, steering feedback and wear. Start with a great foundation which a PS4S and also the PS4 is (which I currently use on my daily driver) and then play with the...

Yes, it is with this engine. A very high speed run over 1000 km could result in up to 0.5 liter of total engine oil consumption on my R. But I knew it and did top up afterwards. But again, it was only if I was doing 120-155MPH all the time.

Welcome to the forum!

Make sure you can put the GTi's engine into the RCZ R. There are certain differences between those two engines as they are put into different platforms. So for example the downpipe is different between those two. It could mean a lot of adaptations to make a GTi's engine to work in the RCZ R.

That is the screenshot from the run. I know, it could be anything, but it is the topspeed run done in my R. The 178,7 was the speed I was travelling while my wife took the screenshot.

No, both the needle and the digital readout stops at 254. Only the rev counter climbs till it hits the rev limiter. The only difference between limiter is on or off is that "gear up" arrow showing up when you exceed the speed limiter. When a RCZ is limited, it won't come up. When it is unlimited...

More likely a race track

Welcome! Don't worry about that "audi" comment. Once while I still had my R the police sent me a speeding ticket stating I was speeding in my Porsche. I replied, you got the wrong guy cause I do not own a Porsche.

I very much like that silver paint!

I know the Tigra quite well. Back in the 90s when this car came out I dated a nice girl. Her mom bought her the Tigra A 1.6, in this squeaky yellow bright color with stickers on the side. It was painful to ride in this car, haha. But I loved her so much, so I went with it. And she thought I...

Great choice! Is this your first sports coupe?

Welcome to the forum!

The RCZ-R accelerates pretty quickly from let's say 200 up to 250. So when the limiter is removed you would need a 2 up to 3 miles of autobahn to go for +250 kmh. It is not this kind of painstakingly process I sometimes see with some newer cars which struggle to accelerate properly above 210...

It's been a while since I was driving in the Netherlands. But each time I was I did stay under the speed limit precisely. I have no clue how frequent speeding control are in there and I had no device to warn me about speeding cameras. So this time I was the one blocking the left lane from time...

It was removed by a capable mechanic. Obviously it is not that hard to do when you have the right software and access to all the systems. There was just a single setting to be changed and the job was done. The gearing in 6th is sufficient to go up to that speed of 169 MPH. When you do the...

Yes, the R is limited at exactly 254 kmh on the speedo which is 250 GPS speed. I had the limiter removed on mine and posted my results here on the forum. The R was going almost 270, if I remember correctly. It was a huge fun doing so. Car was planted very well, no much more wind noises than at...

I live in the opposite world, means I'm having hard times to focus on driving when going only 100-130 kmh. I start to drift away in my thoughts, start playing with the phone, etc. Once while traveling in Belgium I almost felt asleep at the wheel, no kidding. I can only focus on driving when...

Welcome! Nice and shiny black RCZ!
