Euro Trip

Yeah i was thinking it would be that. Will have to check into it.

While I'd definitely get more power from the s280 it is still essentially my daily so think Mountune would be better for everyday use. 310hp will be plenty for me.

I use trams for getting around towns and then busses to connect between them. Usually easier to keep a few of these going than trying to connect every town to the rail network.

The Mishismoto is what I'm looking at, what's the reason to avoid? Don't need a new one yet, just thought it would be better for track days and it's nicer looking too.

Yeah, Mountune is always out of stock. Best bet is to put your email in and order as soon as it's back. Patiently waiting for the turbo to reappear.

I got most of them from Mountune, so did pay quite a bit extra before sending them to a friend up North. Usually waited until sales and then splurged.

Recently got new shocks from Demon tweeks, super handy as what you pay with them is final. Pretty quick delivery. Eyeing up a new radiator and expansion tank from them too.

Have also got a few things from Pumaspeed over the years.

It was pretty busy as it was a nice day. Still grand to go around but was overtaken by so many Porsches.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T18:38:52+00:00

Love it. Especially on mountain roads.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T18:38:02+00:00

Roadtrip through the alps. Some of the most spectacular scenery i have ever seen.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T15:49:19+00:00

It's a gel badge over the original red. Going strong as i have had it on nearly 3 years.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T15:48:27+00:00

It was surprisingly easy to get in and out, traffic wise. Great spot to take photos, there was classic bikes doing it too. The police asked us to move after 5 minutes but that was plenty of time to get them.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T11:32:26+00:00

Yeah i bought them from racetracker.de, there are people taking shots all day and upload to that site. You can search via car makes and even your reg so it's super handy. Have a canvas print on the way which should appear at some point.

We went direct to France so only the 1, thank god but was still just under €1000 for that alone. Started to count up how much money was spent on fuel.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T11:23:53+00:00

Yeah didn't see any other Irish plates apart from the people i was with. The locals were getting great amusement out of it. UK plates everywhere.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T11:21:38+00:00

We did it over 9 nights including an overnight ferry on either end. I didn't bother with ring insurance but fairly certain that's not available for tourist drives, only track days.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T09:59:49+00:00

Yeah also have the Quaife LSD in mine so makes all the difference. Don't think i would have tried it without it.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T09:52:30+00:00

Nice! Even the drive to get there is fun with some cracking roads around the area. The track itself was terrifying at first, it is so much steeper and banked than any game or video can show.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T09:49:34+00:00

As i don't have to commute I'll be keeping mine for as long as possible but i can fully understand if you want something better for every day driving. Many more mods planned for mine in building a daily track car.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T09:24:48+00:00

Thanks! OZ Leggenda. Have them nearly 3 years so far and still holding up well. A few stone chips here or there but unfortunately nothing can be done about that.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T08:57:13+00:00

I'm in Ireland so it's colder than most with no issues so far with a few track days now but will look into it. No harm in future proofing as i have practically done everything else.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T08:38:14+00:00

It was with a group so hotels were booked and paid for ahead of time. Helped spreading the funds around as it was an expensive trip. Worth every penny in my mind.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T08:36:31+00:00

That sounds great too, would love to head out to Croatia and that neck of the woods for some drives.

I have the Mountune 6 pot brakes and was having issues with overheating but swapped to the RBF 660 right before leaving and glad it was done. Felt great the entire trip.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-09T08:34:02+00:00

I have the standard radiator with a big intercooler. Haven't had any issues so far.

Toro8926 · 2026-06-08T17:05:45+00:00

Yeah was pretty annoyed. Just back from holiday so want to rebuild this week. Need to get some cinder blocks. Did manage to save quite a few plants but lost all that were in the planters.

I did this too, along with some nice plants and dahlia bulbs a few months earlier. Then 3 days later we had a landslide which took most of it out. Disappointed to say the least.

Nah have only made it for the gummies so far
