[@MikeLloyd-z2s]

Beat me too it,

[@4321GO_Simon]

Actually……. close, but no cigar. His SECOND name was Colin. It’s ACBC: Antony Colin Bruce Chapman.

[@hanskaashoek]

Glad you're gonna do the Noble properly.....wouldn't expect anything else from you really.

[@REPerformanceUK]

Its your fault!! lol

[@kingGar27]

@@REPerformanceUK Can Motul not step up and sponsor it? Let them spray it red! Then auction it off - we'll all buy tickets :)

[@alastairwinner]

Great to meet you today. Looking forward to the results of my ‘big service’!

[@douglasmurdoch]

Keep it clean

[@Audifans555]

Ace videos mate.

[@REPerformanceUK]

Thank you

[@steffydog]

Always a great video, thanks

[@REPerformanceUK]

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.

[@chrisclayton2278]

Liking the updates. Looking forward to seeing the Noble in the flesh soon. 👌

[@puggzymalone5824]

Yeah me too its the project I'm most interested in seeing in the future! I think because you don't get to see many Nobles and the fact that he's going to upgrade it too.

[@paulwilkinson4501]

If you slow motion the part when Ricky turns round to the Noble you can see his colour drain 😂 loving the vids and channel as always 👍🍻

[@REPerformanceUK]

😅😅🤣

[@brodymcaleese8585]

Looking forward to the track day footage

[@raykaufman7156]

Jordan taking the piss with the Lotus...expert.

[@GazMoby]

Very enjoyable as usual 👍

[@REPerformanceUK]

Thank you

[@belly450]

looking forward to the motul one. will they cover bike oils. my 1299s had 300v in it, my service guy only uses motul

[@jimmcculloch3786]

Brilliant, and thank you :)

[@REPerformanceUK]

Thank you!

[@midlifecarsis6420]

Another banger. The AMG Emira will definitely be the one to have, always argued this. It will be quicker, more tuneable, more interesting and exciting than that incredibly humdrum V6, nicer to drive on our traffic-laden roads and cheaper to boot! I can see why Lotus stuck the V6 in though to get the Emira out the door.

[@jpve76]

One word: manual.

[@midlifecarsis6420]

@@jpve76 predictable. This is no analogue sportscar like Lotus' of old. The 1400kg, assistance-laden (even PAS) Emira is far closer to GT car than a sports car and modern GT cars are better served by a modern gearbox. And quicker too.

[@douglasmurdoch]

Be careful of burn out u won’t think anything wrong and it will just hit you

[@grahamhart8443]

Need that vid on oil specs soon bro

[@tunnel7]

Your working to hard Rikki?? steady down a bit m8 cheers love the Vids.

[@Tracertme]

I would have v6 Emira because it’s port injected not direct and it’s a basic Camry Toyota motor, loads of long term available cheap parts..

[@mgbond]

No need to replace Rods on the Noble engine. They are Arrow rods as std and slightly shorter to lower CR. Pistons Yes, port polish head. Change Inlet manifold. I would suggest G25-550 turbos.

[@puggzymalone5824]

Oh about the wooden engine crates. In EVO Simon George had a new v12 Murci engine delivered from Italy and that came in a nice wooden crate! Maybe they only spring for the wooden crates for the V12's the tight buggers! How come you've got a 5 litre block do they make a 5.2? Is it what was in the car originally or are the 5.2's much more expensive?

[@jwmurphyccsis]

Is it normal to use high pressure gurneys to clean cars.

[@stefanberglund4618]

You know everything about R8! My 2017 (built 2016 06) has a low resolution backup camera. Can I swap it from one from 2022?

[@battlight3476]

Nice update, have we seen the guy behind the camera? Is it devro??. Lol I'll have to go find him now.. cheers 😊

[@nelg1973]

Those scissors are as blunt as your Stanley. 😉

[@Benaiahglover]

Hi mate. Love your videos. What do you think of the APR 5.2 V10 rpm tune and limiter removal ? Would be nice to enjoy the rev song a little longer even tho not practical gains. Do they mind it on a 2012 model? What would you say it can be “reasonably” stretched to

[@Neil_Brewer]

Bike meet at the unit? Race bikes and riders?

[@ianpollard9771]

Two v10s in for engine repairs ? That’s a bit concerning. At least they are obviously at the right place. Love the vids keep it up

[@REPerformanceUK]

TBH we only ever see broken cars so its not a fair reflection of their reliability! They are hard as nails!!

[@kinglouiesshed8995]

Bike in the back anything to do with crutchlow ?😅 What do you guys think of the VR6 engine 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@ealoken]

Have you seen the Zyrus lp1200 Lamborghini?

[@REPerformanceUK]

Yes sir! Basically a Huracan GT3 with turbo kit. Bur very cool.

[@cjamesenorf]

👌

[@REPerformanceUK]

Thank you!

[@willmay2056]

New emira or stick with 2017 gen 2 R8 plus?

[@jpve76]

Emira

[@johncreamer3318]

What made you choose Motul? I use it in the bikes and had recommendations from bike heads but interested to hear your reasoning...

[@stewartnoel9810]

OMG " i don't know why but its got ABC on the badge?" What a muppet 🐸

[@REPerformanceUK]

Why am I a muppet? Do you know the flame front speed of combustion when knock occurs? Don’t judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree….

[@adamknight9535]

dont powder coat the Noble sand blast it then galvanise it because it will last longer.

[@vogs72]

Or do both…

[@Dean-does-Stuff-81]

Although i do like your content, you tend to waffle on a bit, and I end up fast forwarding a bit. ( Just some feed back ) Love the motor bike stuff...

[@REPerformanceUK]

Those must be Jordan’s bits!!

[@DavidMalenczak]

I hear that the AJ30 has better heads and very similar to the ford V6 . Just saying.

[@ianmargetts9163]

Bro, how come I've had to re subscribe to the channel? How come and maybe why not boosting your subs?

[@ashleyscarth8363]

more r8 cars then audi dealer
