Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story)
Almost 70.000 miles.
During winter time I do not drive that many miles a month but till end of the year +70k will be on the ODO.
Car is running fine, exhaust is getting louder and louder (I realized yesterday while in underground parking, people were...
If it doesn't drink the coolant then it needs to stretch it legs on a longer trip. Some engines can build up some goo when driven mostly on short distances. The engine need to get up to operating temperature for a longer period to get rid off it entirely.
What you must not do is to give it some...

Say Hi to Jorge when you visit him! He is a great fella!
The Zeeland meet is on my calendar (May 21st). And this time it is looking good for me!
Re: RCZ R test drive
A remap to 295 (it is more like 280-285 in real world, you will see it :eusa-whistle: ) is the most reasonable upgrade you can do to the R.
Going beyond it will be very, very costly and the gains hardly noticeable. My personal opinion :greetings-wavingblue:
But you seem...
Re: RCZ R test drive
What color? Big navigation?
Honestly there is not much options you have for the R. In regards of mechanic upgrades. You can remap the engine which always helps. But other than that there is not much on the market you can do.
And honestly? I never lacked anything on my R...
I like it a lot. Because I can put my wrist on it and still be able to switch gears comfortably.
And about the Megane hand brake: this was brilliant by Renault and when pulling this lever it felt like you could apply hulk power to the hand brake. It was just perfect.

My tyre dealer also tries to lure me into those. I need up to 2 full sets of summer and 2 sets of winter tires a year so it allows me to try other brands now and then.
But I'm reluctant after having had bad experience with those P Zeros about 3 years...
Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story)
On the spot!
The R needs to have a proper tyre to roll comfortable. The Michelin PSS is a good choice. But the GoodYear Assy 2 (as it came from factory) is even a better choice. The comfort with the GY is a bit better than with the Michelin. The...
Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story)
I think if you're coming from the stock RCZ200 suspension setup then you're going to like the RCZ R.
Yes, the suspension is on the sporty side but I wouldn't call it harsh. Drive the new Civic Type R. Now that is harsh. The RCZ R let you feel the road...
Is there anywhere a schedule available? Like, when does the meet start on Sunday? Where do we all meet? etc etc. couldnt find anything on FB (or I'm blind :lol: ) Thanks! :greetings-wavingblue:
The so-called premium brands ask for premium prices to remove the 155mph limiter. And at the end they limit you again, at 170mph. Just another way to take away money from their customers.
I remember having a "race" with my Renault Megane sport against a S class on the autobahn. We did 155, side...
