They even do not wash/spray onto the headlights where actually the light is emitted. They wash more or less the outer part of the headlamp. Indeed, pretty useless on the face-lifted RCZ.

Thank you! The pics of your car bring back memories about my red RCZ R. So keep 'em coming! I regret not having shot enough pics of my R when I had her. BTW, a RCZ always look great with the Alps in the background :)

You can run those PS4s on just 2.0 bar (29 PSI) front. Won't hurt them as the RCZ R is lightweight. And it improves damping.

Basically yes. But there some differences between that R engine in 308 and in the RCZ. Therefore Peugeot has to keep both versions on stock. We will see by when the engines for the RCZ R will run out.

The Michelin 4S will give you stupid levels of grip on the R. And low wear off. And they work beautifully in wet as well. You can also give the newest GoodYear Assymetric 5 a chance. Those GYs should provide a bit better damping over bumps compared to the Michelins. But if you only ride on great...

Welcome to the forum! What a mess with the engine. Glad all worked out at the end. Maybe the previous owner was trashing the engine all the time. At the end, it is an engine which likes high RPMs. But it has to be treated correctly.

This must be a joke, right? RCZ R against 458 Italia? Common guys, the RCZ R doesn't stand a chance if the Ferrari is driven by a capable driver. I once had the joy of following a Ferrari F12 in the alps. Sure, I was able to keep up because of all the winding roads and hairpin turns. But each...

That is a tasty combo!

I also strongly recommend to change gearbox's oil on a regular basis. I did it twice on my R, despite claims from Pug it is a lifetime fill not required to be changed. Yeah right, thank you. The cogs are not the weak spot in a gearbox. They will run almost forever, even with bad oil or hardly...

You swapped one beauty for another. French for Italian beauty. Good choice!

Lovely R in red! Memories... I miss my R soooo much. You got a beauty there. Take good care of her.

I had a NG4 unit on my R. But I only used USB drives to play music. Put the USB drive into it, no matter what size that USB drive has. I had a 128 GB in my R. Plays music. Do you connect your phone (android or apple?) to the USB port and then what? You start a music app on your phone?

The thermostat on your R engine is nothing but the usual, old school bi-metal thermostats which you could easily swap out in 5 minutes. If you are not an experienced mechanic with up-to-date tools at your hand, you will have hard times to check if that part works correctly. It is a multi-chamber...

I'd too start with the thermostat. On the R engine this piece of "valve" is controlled electronically by the engine's ECU. So it opens and closes by commands sent by the ECU.

The replacement fuel pump on my R was working fine all the time till I parted with my R. At least in my case it looked like they sorted the issue permanently.

I do see why you save those brakes. But you are missing out on one of the greatest assets of the R, its braking power. I for myself took a lot of driving pleasures with the R on the brake. Braking at the very last moment, balancing the car on the edge, oh what glorious times it were. Now I roll...

Welcome! I've spotted few RCZ while on vacation in Thailand. There was two in Bangkok and one in Krabi region. The RCZ looks like an UFO in Thailand among all those pick ups and Toyotas. A rare sight.

Welcome! The red metallic paint on the R wasn't the strongest paint I ever experienced. But which paint is nowadays. I was able to buff out any swirls with mild cutting polisher. With polymer sealant applied afterwards it protected the paint for about 3-4 months of driving. Do you have any...

My dyno result is in the signature. I also don't buy into the fairytales of RCZ R having only 260 PS or lower.
