then you get people who dont drive clios and think, WOW what a POS that's a neds motor haha
All in...
Like i said i was struggling to launch the golf.
Having read up on the us golf forums im not that far out. If i was getting better launches etc then I reckon i'd get the time down.
However i expected it to be a stone waller with the 4wd system.
I'll get the car on the rollers soon and see...
if you look under the car you will see the spider plates.
The two "beams running behind them" we use them
As close as you can get to the front. Then you can lift the back up without a jack. Couple of stands under the rear and your up off the ground.

Anyway it's got 5...
Damn you all!
Was so hot the other week!!!
I only done it as it nearly paid for itself when doing the belts (non cup setup costs extra when doing the belts)
Clio is faster at the end of the slip road
my clio has cams and is fairly stripped out which will give it a bit of an advantagr
dont get me wrong the R is fast top end. Pulls like a train. After some light engine work she will be sound

Another update for CSS and our trip to the ring'
new rear discs and pads as the old ones were ruined. the sliders appeared to have been seized however they move by hand no problem now. I assume they were stuck and just couldn't get past the piece of dirt!
regardless they are now re-greased and...
