My mate Andy has just listed his VTR on ebay , by far one of the cleanest saxo builds Ive seen.

A local car photographer had asked if he could do some pics of my cars for his portfolio , came out brilliant considering the weather was terrible today.

Justnow it has a few mods
Piper exhaust
Vibratechnics solid engine mount
Powerflex dogbone mount
Powerflex rear beam bushes
Uprated filter
Snappy wheel
Uprated disks and fast road pads
Hel braided...
I ended up at a new local event called Fords In The Park held at lochore medows.
Was a brilliant venue for a static show , with a good mix of old and new cars and stuff for all the family to do.
Does anyone running a dash 2 have a listing of there fuel level calibrations they could share.
Im just wiring my dash up and know i need a 300ohm resistor inline but to save having to drain,fill the tank.
I was wondering if anyone had readings i can enter into the RT software.
Does anyone have a list of the torque settings for the ACS bump steer kit.
I bought mine second hand and didn't get any paperwork, particularly the bottom nut where it goes through the uniballs.
Looking for the best product or method for cleaning the poly windows in my track car , they are showing signs of age and also have glue marks from previous decals/numbers.
I did think scratch X on the DA but wasn't sure if it would burn easily.
What belt is required when doing the eps conversion , using the cup alt set up.
I remember it has to be one ply less to avoid rubbing on the plastic cover.
I somehow ended up with another clio a few weeks ago in a totally unplanned deal.
A mate that had owned this RB full fat for the last 9 years as a daily driver ,gave me a shout to see if i knew anyone that would be interested in it and the rest is history :smile:
The car had timing belt and...
After selling my clio track car to Stu a few weeks ago , I wasn't really planning on buying anything but then this came up damaged/repaired for a price I couldn't pass up.
This will now be my new daily/track car :smile: after also selling my X5 this week as i no longer need it to tow with.

Does anyone know or could they measure the thread diameter and pitch for me please.
I need a rear spring seat and ideally want to avoid the AST lead time , so want to see if the likes of a avo/bc/ gaz seat would fit as a lot easier to get off the shelf.
Im over seas until next week so unable to...
Im having a nightmare with CTS and the rebuild of my cup gearbox.
The outer casing is/got cracked and was picked up during the rebuild , this has been welded and cracked again so got some spare casings from Northloop :up:
I have just had a msg from cts saying
The casings that have been...
Putting this up on here as they are trying to drum up more interest in the series for 2015. With the changes made to the classes for next year near standard clios should do well in class E , but I think class D will still have a good few 60's lap cars in it.

Just finishing the build up of my track car after its new paint job and got one side of my new brake set up fitted.
Having a few problems with the electric steering that will have to wait a month to get sorted, until i get home from work again.
Next to the road toy.
I have just fitted an electric steering column and control box today using a looped cup rack, I am getting notch steering almost like the drive motor is stalling ?
I can here the steering ecu activate and the adjustability is there but it almost sounds like the UJ is binding up, i have checked...
I have found a few threads on this but , I'm not sure how to wire the pin2 circuit as I'm running a omex ecu along with the standard one .
My thinking is that if i wire the constant feed for the omex to the kill switch when it is activated it will kill the ecu and the spark, so no need to tap...
After selling this car 4 years ago and regretting it since , I ended up buying it back two weeks ago and set about a bit of a clean up and made a few changes.
As I got it back
Calliper colour changed to red
Seat backs stripped and painted ( thanks to the guide on here )

uprated valve springs??

After selling my Focus RS I decided to get something semi sensible to use as a daily for a while and ended up buying this 330D from someone on a Ford site I use. It had already had full genuine M3 panels fitted along with the interior, since then i've added some carbon and had a remap and dpf...
With there being a good few Scottish owners on here would use be interested in having a rolling road day, I was going to see Simon at Sitech for a price. He is based in Rosyth so central and easy to get to for most people.
Has anyone tried these yet on track .
I run them on my focus RS and have to say I really rate them for the money, they give a better ride that some of the coilovers i had costing 3 times as much.
One of my fron Gaz shocks is really needing a rebuild so thought i might give these a try as they...
Just been online to look at ordering my window set and there is two types available clubs port and pro. In the spec for both I can only see that the pro kit is fully thermo moulded is this really worth the extra £140 ?

Revo stage 4/5
Spec R cooler
Spec R boost pipework
Spec R oil cooler
