yeah our focus was flying, as was a customers car with the same js-375 kit on it, he had his brakes glowing red when he came in after his 20min session.

Broster - This is a little off topic, but do you know anyone who does a front splitter for the new RS?

??? dont get it sorry...


blukoo, why would you want a front splitter for it, the bumper is massive as it is!

unfortunalt robin was unable to make it to FF today so he can't be held responsible

Just to make the front appear a little lower.
A splitter worked really well on the Mk1 RS, and I think it would look quite good on the Mk2 too.

Just had a look at that one, but that seems a bit too extreme.

How so? It's just a flat sheet... doubt you can get much more subtle than that.

What did you have in mind?

I just realised that it can be fitted without the stainless steel tie-bars. That tones it down a little.
Still seems a little large, but i guess it could always be mounted a little further back.

I think you just cut it to size, job done. Mount the tie bars inside if you wanted a bit more rigidity.

I reckon my dad would want something designed specifically for the RS, but i'll show it to him anyway. Cheers Ash.

the bumper shape isnt as easy to make a splitter for unlike the mk1, lower it a little, we do some nice springs for them

I mind seeing this at Crail chasing GSXR's with NOS up the strip. The thing could fair move.
