Thanks matey, it's a shed but somehow keeps working! The filler neck is just one or two easily accessible screws from under the lid then it should pop out. Tank doesn't need to come out for that.
It's only taken me a little while in the past to swap it over but now it's more of a pain I'll...
Roll Centre and Bump Steer Correction
Just a quick update with what I've been working on over the past couple of weeks. Ant from @ACS_Motorsport popped down to give @Martin. and I a hand fitting his plug and play roll centre and bump steer correction kit. Typically it snowed on Saturday night...
Always really enjoy reading this thread. It's just a case of, there's an issue, sort it, no faffing and no bother about small issues. Looks like a brilliant trip, would like to do something similar myself. :)
Unfortunately Tom is right. A bus crept up on me and had a little kiss with the side. I'm intending to have it repaired one day but can't see the money for that coming anytime soon!
don't you remember it was fighting for pole position on the last lap of a fierce race..nudge nudge ;)
You mean ability to fluke it! Before this track day I did 30 mins of prep on the clio! Is it a 4c? I'm in ;)
Thanks matey. Comments like that are why I do these project threads and videos! Hopefully more frequent and more interesting videos on the horizon :)
Bedford GT 4th November
Headed up to Bedford on Saturday with my buddy and his Pontiac TransAM. Had an awesome day despite the awful weather. The Clio took a lot of water through the roof scoop so I need to get something to keep in the glovebox for those rainy days. There was litres of water in...
The fit is seriously good! Tom has a shell he mocks up the cage in so has mm perfect measurements of where the feet need to go! I can't pretend I wasn't super impressed by all the feet going in with such precision!

Prep started exactly a week ago today. After Brands I didn't expect much to be wrong with the Clio but wanted to check a couple of things as the journey either side of track time was pretty long. Unfortunately the pads had been totally hammered by Brands and looked like they didn't...
You've got it right 225 is the diagnostic socket (OBD), 502 is the powersteering multiplug. On the OBD there is only one (or two I forget) which goes into the diagnostic plug but on the wiring diagram you should be able to see a junction where multiple wires join into this wire further up...

Here you are chaps. I'd deleted it from the dropbox as it was as capacity. Not sure if there's a way to permanently embed the file in the forum :S

Yeah, you can't do it the sheet metal is too thin and will warp if you try to weld anything in it's place. The only option is to reskin the roof, not a cheap job.
Just seal up the sunroof, I did mine properly and had no issues ever again.
Brilliant, photobucket has really done me over. Anyway, over to flickr I go.
Haven't done much on the cup recently because I've been busy with other things but managed to swap over the pads to RC8s before doing Brands last Wednesday. Before the day I was a bit unhappy with the brakes so, with...
I got a Swann 1080p kit off eBay, 2tb hard drive, motion detection, can view on phone and send email notifications, plug and play kit which is really good. Think it's the 4550 model, can't remember but I like it a lot.
Just beware some companies list the cameras as "professional" but when you...
Your laptop would need to be a 32bit OS for it to work. I should have mine up and running in a few weeks.
Sounds like the wiring stops at the bulkhead connector.
is there a clutch switch already in the car? it sounds like there might be then. It will however work without one as the switch just earths that pin when the pedal is depressed. You'll need clip to turn cruise control on in the clocks. I have clip but my laptop needs repairing before it'll be...
Did a couple of bits quickly on the cup yesterday as time was quite limited.
Got this manifold swap down to a fine art now, did it in two hours and had a chat with the neighbour whilst at it. although it doesn't sound like a big difference I only dropped one side of the subframe off the ball...
Friend of mine has popped this up for sale. Had it for the time I've owned 10 clios so a very well care for car with nice mods.

A friend of mine has a door bell with a camera in which links up to an app, telling her when someone's at the door using a motion sensor. You can speak to them telling them where to leave a parcel or just keep an eye. Can be battery or wired into the normal doorbell output. About £150 last time...
Nah! Wouldn't want to pay more than I do and wouldn't want to contribute to them losing their job if they got caught
Update
MOT passed it was the lambda :)
MOT - Fail
In the last update I left the car on axle stands where it has unfortunately remained until Saturday after I finally received the correct brake lines to fit.
The weekend before the annual ritual of swapping over the manifold in prep for the MOT happened. Timed it and took just over 3...
Selling up because the place we've bought comes with the furniture.
Obviously 10% cheaper to a CSer because of the ebay fees :)
