So, the conversion to 15's is going swimmingly, as expected... NAAATTT
Swapping my wheels for some Team Dynamic Pro Race 1.2s, theyre white and they come with AR1s
These will be going silver, and will be track only.
Because the AR1s will almost definately try to kill me at even the hint of...
I have one of these
if something is truly siezed it will not get it anyehre near hot enough, theyre just not up to the job.
What Matt posted would be far better, ive been recomended it by a few people now.
2 weekends back, I did a bit of work on the clio.
Passed its MOT on the thursday, took it straight to the unit to do exhaust and cooling ducts.
Got these off eBay, bit expenive I thought but looked better than anything I'd be able to make so bit the bullet.
I wouldnt say they were worth the...
Done some christmas shopping for the clio over the past few days
Yesterday I collected the dash top & I managed to get some standard PH1 doorcards
Today, I collected a PMS exhaust off @Daniel for a bargain price.
The Saab managed all journeys whilst being in limp mode throughout, fun times...
WOULD YOU LOOK AT THIS....
Aint no clios with that luxury 😂
Gave it a wash
What'sit been, 3 weeks of daily use now as I taxed it end of Nov too. Loving it, besids it constantly going into limp mode, problem I've stilll not gotten to the bottom of.
Gave the clio a wash today, as it'd...
Leaving it outside to get wet too, why not just rest the bloody bonnet on top, wouldve taken 2 seconds and literally saved the engine.
I just cant get my head around the state in which the car is now in.
From a chap with such a good repuation across seemingly many RS platforms.
If his...
Forgot to catch up on this... turned notifications off as it was literally none stop after I posted them screen shots lool.
Hope he managed to sell the trackday or go in another car, thats about £500 down the drain for the trackday alone, never mind travel and hotel expenses.
To people saying...

So yesterday I did a couple of completely non clio related things.
1st up, I got my 1st tattoo
No reason for me to tell you guys that at all, but there you go.
Secondly, I bought a new car (I actually did this before the tattoo)
I've bought a practical daily estate car, so I can hide the...
Been a while since I updated
Not done much to the car, Anglesey has been and gone though.
This happened again whilst on track
My front wheels almost fell off too due to PMS studs all working loose from the heat.
Anyone managed to fix this issue? I've seen its a common thing for stud...
I agree with he who said buy a C63, or tbh any fast saloon/estate car in red, to go with these two.
Problem with finding a plate for the GT4, anything remotely related to Porsche or GT4 will be INSANE money, probably more than the Trophy itself.
Fixed
Had to modify the heat shield thing slightly, so thats being painted again currently
Also ordered a new ITG air filter as this one is starting to literally fall apart. And a slam panel seal thing as mine has fallen completely apart.
Hoping thats the last of it for a bit, it's almost...
Quick one before I go to sleep
Bad earth to ECU was the fault, main one which goes from the box into the main loom from ECU)
Sorted that today and then instantly discovered another issue 😂
Considering I've spent lots of time and money pampering this, it really does hate me atm for some...
Where are all the earth points?
I know there's a main earth from chassis to box on the side/in wheelarch area
One I broke when doing the pas pipes, but I reconnected it, that still looked fine as it did cross my mind.
That was on top of the box going into the main loom.
Any others?
Tonight's update
It's all a bit weird 😂
So, swapped inertia switch, no difference
Bridged the conections, same.
Tested continuety on the new plug I connected for cps, just incase connection was shitty, was fine.
All earth's getting continuety
Related fuses same
Checked for spark, nothing.
Now...
I have a spare that unlocks the doors but won't start it.
I guess I could try that to see if it does anything different to the one I'm using. I'm sure that only let's you turn over a handful of times before cutting.
So Monday just gone I was at curborough sprint course, 1/4 way into my 2nd run the car just died on me.
Checked all the usual bits, inertia switch fine,nothing looked to have come loose, fuses all fine
We noticed the fuel pump isnt priming or even coming on when turning over.
We managed to get...
