Bottom of Duffus with sponges missus in the car was an arse twitcher.
Haha, good racing but have you got shares in a body shop and minispares. Supporting the BTCC must be epic though.
Here you go mate.

I would spin the cooler otherwise if there is no check valves then you run the chance of having oil drain away every time you switch it off. It will then take a minute to bleed again which will or could starve the...
At a guess I would say that is circa 3 deg negative camber up front which shortened shocks with standard drillings and non slotted holes won't give you, neither will lowering it with a macpherson strut arrangement give you that camber.
The back does look fine, anymore and you would run into...
You will get rubbing when going any lower than standard, as said it will only be the small bulge that covers the bumper bracket. So..... not the end of the world.
Them wheels aren't cup turinis as I'm sure you know but they are very high offset from the looks of it. Also, doesn't Koni shocks...
Its a load off the mind having that done after having the same bother, the pad fixing is a stupid arrangement anyway.
Just seen your for sale add Gaz, what's that ahhh aboot?
I missed your question about the dents in the manifold mate. It seems the dent was added to certain or later manifolds just to give a bit more clearance so you should be fine. Some French guys say its a Renault sport part without the dents. I just think its an evolution thing.
There is a good...
I finally got around to editing some of my videos. I still have the video where I spin to do but its nothing special, just a little bit too tight on entry and too much speed carried @neil a @Fraser.J. @Michaelfoz

So it is, I can picture it now. The nuts over a hollow shaft iirc. I have only had the covers off once.
Same sentiment stands though, I was hoping it was the securing device that had let go but it transpires its the whole shaft that's let go :(
Is that a dentist surgery you are working in? Looks very nice.
At least its a failure of theirs clearly and couldn't be attributed to wear and tare.
I was under the impression the standard 5th gear is held on with some type of circlip/snap ring? No?
Everything is interchanagble with some models having different width stub axles but again they can be swapped.
Burpspeed noticed that the 182 cup has a thicker width torsion bar built into the beam but that's the only difference I have heard of.
BTW you don't touch the 'bottom pulley' or crank pulley until you have checked the timing as it will slip. If you plan to do anymore without the sump off then remove spark plug no1 and put a long cable tie down into the cylinder so you can see TDC.
To answer your question yeah you can bin off...
I have a feeling its been fitted with the wrong springs or shocks.
If the advert rings true its a decent car if you can do the belts yourself or get them done cheap. It needs lowered and a cup splitter though.
