    Gearbox/clutch issues

    Try the Facebook forums, as they are more active. Having had similar problems, try and find a recon box, get new clutch and slave fitted at the same time, make sure the slave is the metal, not the plastic one. Let us know how you get on.

    Should a rebuilt F4R engine (RS200) eating oil after run-in?

    Not RST, but for other reasons, I would not use them.

    Should a rebuilt F4R engine (RS200) eating oil after run-in?

    I am very lucky that I have a garage here in NE Scotland, that will tackle anything, and do a first class job. You need to find someone that is trustworthy, and a good mechanic. Stick with it young man, you will get there in the end.

    Should a rebuilt F4R engine (RS200) eating oil after run-in?

    My forged R26 was built by a different well known tuner, within a few miles, was chucking oil all over the rear of the car, was told...it will bed in...it didn't!..Came back, turbo failed within 3000 miles. Turbo replaced, but said I had to pay the £1800 bill. Second Turbo failed at 900 miles...

    Brembo,s or better pads ?

    As guys have said, ds1.11 Or Winmax W5 or 6. Winmax are a bit more progressive, ds are more instant, both work well on road or track.

    Upgrading Brakes on My Clio RS - Recommendations ??

    Braided lines, Megane 250 plain carbon disks. at the moment, I run winmax w6, I have used W5, DS1.11, ferodo 2500, if just road use, plenty of sintered pads out there. Rear pads can be almost anything, as they do not do an awful lot. If you stick to your std. disk size, use plain disks.

    Mid-life crisis help needed

    40 years ago, in my mid life crisis, I took up parachuting!!. On track with the car, and meeting people there, is very enjoyable, but the adrenaline never flows. If you have the nerve, nothing comes close, but its certainly not for everyone.

    My next track car?

    Ive had R26R running 276bhp, Clio197,with 260 engine, running 320bhp, and now R26 fully forged, with all the bits, running 360bhp. Personally for me, its the R26 versions, the Clio was quick, but on track, felt top heavy, the R26 feels far better, and more stable on track, but at 84years old...
