give us a couple of laps to get used to the car, so far i have driven it for maybe an hour..lol
I would like to see how they match up :) but i fear your experiance would make it a fairly unrealistic comparison anyway..lol
it should be a good little match up though if we can get, you, dewis...
Brakes are all perfect now with the new fluid throughtout, brake test and they felt really solid, nice and even braking :)
Tonights Jobs:

After a good session on the pikey which I will update soon... We gave the car a clean
Matt have it an the standard hose down and once over with the car shampoo :)
Then it received:
A clay
A polish
A waxing
Glass polish
But by that time it was totally dark lol
I woke up this morning to this...
We will be attanding this also, it would be really good to come over and say hello at some point :)
We Will be on the OPD stand and out on track so we will wander over inbetween sessions
Today the seats have been fitted to the clio in the expert hands of Dewis Motorsport :-)
The car has just arrived home and the seats look mint, perfect driving position :-)
A massive massive thank you to Dewis motorsprt for working on the car over the weekend
The frames he made:
Most...
Can the moderator who removed all the associated business contact me regarding the deletion of posts in MY build thread on a PUBLIC forum, I have not been notified regarding this.
I find this highly suspicious...
Well this has caused a bit of a stir.. I can't be assed to argue the facts and to be honest, of the owners I know the least about what has/should have been done.
Only things I would like to know now is, is this on a complete second engine and if so what is known about it?
If not then I look...
the hunting went away when the cam timng was done but the light is still on :(
and i do think it is still misfiring a little just not as bad
is it worth trying the lamba?
how would you have known? lol dont worry about it, and we still stand by our origional statement around an honest sale, the car drives great so i think it sounds worse than it actually is :) and its sorted now anyways.
The only question is, why was the subframe changed, buts saying that, I...
Update:
The car has returned from BTM after the following:
Cambelt done
Air con delete
Steering arms changed
Geometry set
Subframe modified as for what ever reason a1.2 subframe was fitted to the car thus one of the engine mounts was not fitted correctly... Whoops
This evenings work...
Brilliant thanks lads :)
sorry if this is a stupid question, but do you attempt to get the seats level with a spirit level, i can see one in your pics or do you follow the line of the car?
if possible i wanted to avoid the spacing the seats too much to level etc
thanks again
Pics are great, thxnks swede and kelc and As many pics as possible would be great, I only have the fabby for the weekend as he goes back to work and I won't see him then before Coombe :-)
am I correct in thinking what you have done is weld two bars next to the original seat mounts then then...
I know what you mean, hard to say of that pic alone, I was assuming someone may have tried it with the trophy before so have pics?
the plan is do this one centre cap and try them on the car when we get it back :)
so hopefully this week I can post up some pics on the car :)
This is to go on a trackday trophy which otherwise will be pretty standard looking appart from the usual buckets, no interior etc
The plan is to have a loud colour scheme in moderation on the car.. So starting with centre caps, side mounts and when we get to it roll cage... Possibly a couple of...
So what's your opinion on the springs on a trophy? I would ideally like to drop the ride height but bit at The cost of handling as our will really be a track car not much of a road car :-)
Reminder for me, resistors required for bucket seats

One of the things we will be doing on its return will be give it a clean... Prob clay, polish and wax, doubt it will be up to your standard of detailing but hopefully will make it look nice again lol
