My 8 is in the exact same colour code mate (grey with the original alloys in black, black boot lip etc). Owned mine a couple of years. I run the Millers 10w40 too. De-catted (just know a very decent mechanic when it comes to the MOT r.e. emissions, lol). What sparks are you using? Changed the sparks and leads last year to some Iridium NGK's Tyres, I still stick with the Potenza Sports but haven't heard of those Roadstone Eurovis. If they're what you're using on this trackday so sound really grippy and look to handle really well!! Clutch + Gearbox - I upgraded my clutch to stage 2 last year but you seem to shift a fraction quicker at the redline than mine. What have you done there to either gearbox or clutch? Do you use this as a daily too or just pure track use? I've got a couple of cars so I probably only do 150 miles a month in this thing given the 9/10MPG on 99 octane P.S. Just Subscribed

Thanks for the sub Matthew. I’m actually just about to publish another video with my “best” lap which isn’t perfect but it’s a fairly clean lap. It’s my first time at Cadwell too so didn’t want to crash. As for your comment. I’ve actually got a galaxy grey boot lip but aside from that it’s all the same I think. Mines running a 200cel sports cat at the moment which does actually pass emissions which is a nice bonus. I’m using the same spark plugs as you, they’re pretty much as good as you can get. The Denso ones have different heat ratings which aren’t quite right for normal use. I have however, got some RRP MKIII coils and MSD leads. The tyres I’m only using as they were recommended by a friend and they are dirt cheap (£180 for a set) and for how they perform you simply cannot go wrong. I’ve done nothing to the clutch or gearbox just a fluid change last year myself. It just has an Exedy clutch. Not much point in going for anything else at stock power levels. And nope I don’t use this as a daily but it also isn’t just a track toy, I’d say it’s more for weekend use occasionally as well as track. Thanks again for the sub :-)

@@livinglifesideways7826 Thanks for the reply mate. £180 for a set is insanely competitive! Great video, keep it up! Looking forward to watching the next one :)
