    172 Sump Guard

    Renault made one, that's what I have on mine. I think they used it on the cup racers. Think it was only about 100 quid. I ordered mine from the local dealer. I think it'd be fine for anything except gravel rallying.

    Megane 3 RS cambelt tools - same as 172/182?

    Hi I've done the cambelt on the 172/182 several times and have the tools. My Meg 250 needs its belts doing. I was wondering if you can use the 172/182 pulley locking tool? Thanks

    Elite sequel - Elite : Dangerous

    Do missions off the bulletin board until you can afford to upgrade your ship/weapons (I went to Cobra mk3 and am still in it), then do some assassination missions. I haven't found a decent trade route and gave up looking because the BB was so much more lucrative. I think it's the sort of game...

    Tim's Trophy - #455

    Best to get someone like Mike to take a look before you pull the box out. You could have a play yourself but doesn't sound like your thing ;)

    Tim's Trophy - #455

    Are you sure it's the box and not linkage wear/slip?

    279bhp from a non-turbo NA F4R? How?

    That was ian-speedy's car IIRC. Catcam 423 cams, basic headwork, off the shelf parts for a high comp bottom end and 48mm jenveys. He has a project thread with the info in. The pure motorsport engine had custom rods and pistons to improve the bore/stroke ratio.

    Bad news about the old engine but at least things are progressing now!

    Mapping near Oxford?

    Pug1off are affiliated with RS-Tuning. I think that means you can put it on their RR and Paul will update the map remotely based on the data. http://www.rstuning.co.uk/dealers-ezp-17.html?zenid=uah0g5r2l8p76bsof74rj5aje3 But I'd agree Mike or Dan are the best option for the RS2.

    rs2 manifold

    Did one ever actually get damaged? I had one of the first RS2 manifolds and they advised uprated mounts from the start (I already had them). The clearance between the fan shroud and plenum was tiny. I cut away some of the shroud to be safe. I've had new Renault mounts and new K-tec ones and...

    UK Targa / Gumball drives?

    My cousins husband entered the Gumball one year. I thought the only entry requirement was a lot of cash? He is no pro-driver.

    UK Targa / Gumball drives?

    There is plenty of road rallying still going on. Your local car club will have 12 car rallies running in the winter. Average speeds are limited these days for obvious reasons but it can still require you to get your foot down if the route is tricky. There are international events all over still...

    Ph1 172 Track Car. Next Year I Go Racing - Hopefully!

    The regs, as on the web now, don't prohibit FI though - which I assume is a mistake. They only say "based on the production unit from the manufacturers of the model to be raced" which is a bit vague. You could easily argue after bolting a turbo/supercharger on it is still based on the original...

    Ph1 172 Track Car. Next Year I Go Racing - Hopefully!

    There is nothing in the Tricolore regs that bars forced induction from class A is there? An oversight for sure but seems a bit harsh on James after getting approval.

    Wishbone, subframe and rear axle differences

    This one? ph1 versus 172 cup (longer) I also measured the door glass thickness and the 172 cup was about 1-2mm thinner than my 182 FF :) My 182 FF also had the wish bones with increased castor and the subframe was the same as my 172 cup i.e. holes drilled further out.

    Michelin sport Cup tyres

    I've not used them but I've heard other people say they did last longer and consequently were worth the money. The Dunlop Direzzas last well too - I have used them.

    Any ITB owners from CLIOTURBO?

    I'd look for a closer specialist. With a modified car you will get issues. If the only guy who knows how it was put together is miles away it'll be a real PITA. Have you thought about RS Tuning much closer and still a reputable specialist.

    JC5-089 and JC5-129 final drive

    They are the same gearbox except for the final drive. All the gears themselves are the same but the final drive makes them all slightly taller ratio.
