er, 106 might be doubtfull, just completely stripped 3rd gear, only had it back a couple of days ffs! Search for a 182 continues, i'll drag the ctr otherwise! Russ

Yeah china blue mate, should be a bit quicker now with another 20/30bhp russ

I remember both of those from years ago. The gold one is still on standard brakes! Russ

Stunning :cool: Russ

Might have trip along if the weathers good, my mate will be running his 300bhp sc'd 106 so will come and watch that go fast/break down! Hopefully be in a 182 of some description as well, trophy hopefully! Russ

Piers i'm probably free the weekend after but just whatever, dont base it around my plans! Russ

That's a shame, I'm in Manchester on a stag do that weekend. I'll make it another weekend though. Russ

Psj, cool make sure to pick a nice day again! The civic is up for sale so hopefully I may have a new toy for the next run, whatever it is I'm sure I'll keep you honest! Nashy not sure about straightliners, might go for an hour or so one day if I'm not doing anything. Russ

Glad its all sorted Piers, no problems on the RAC, glad we could help. When we going to finish the run then, be an advantage to know where the roads go next time seen as we've done some of them already. Whether the mrs will let me bring the Megane again is another matter. Russ

Keep the LY, £100 says whatever you do to a ph1 it wont go faster over the roads we were on at the weekend, especially with track biased suspension on. I'll let you have a go in my ph1 if i ever get it finished, budget for that was £5k and will be close although i paid peanuts for it and had a...

Great to meet you guys, megane was dirty before the run and it's even worse now! New brakes required all round as well, were about knackered before we set off! Russ

I'll probably come along depending how I get on with jobs at home. Russ

Might come along to this if you dont mind a Megane F1/CTR tagging along, i'll keep out of the pics i promise! Russ

Dave, thanks for the tip, been a memeber on there since 15 march 2003! 'Russell T' is my username. PSJ, might come along if you dont mind me turning up in the Megane/Civic as the Clio isn't going to be road worthy for a while yet. Might be good for a lad i know actually, he's looking to buy a...

Dont like it, red with rb looks wrong, r26r's look terrible in that combo, guy has a one around here, do the wheels the same as the cage and be done with it! Russ

My previous one was milano, still around carlisle as well, had it seven years ago when it was about a year old. Russ

Nah, as per my comment above + jdm's are thin on the ground, over priced, dearer to insure and are the same car with a few tweaks thats mine is getting/has got anyway + dont like Chapionship Cream, had a Teg that colour already. Russ

Jamie, all the cosmetic bits on the premier are from the jdm, red carpet, rear windows, recaros and momo wheel. Looking for a quaife lsd at the minute and with the few bits i've got on order will be 240-250bhp + some minor brake and suspension tweaks for road use and it'll be all set. Russ

Hazza, got loads on my pc but they're not hosted anywhere now. PSJ currently live just outside Wigton but am moving back to Carlisle next week, might have a look at Kirkbride if the weather's nice, doubt i'll run the civic though, not really my cup of tea. Russ

PSJ that was probably the guy who bought my Seat taking it home, he's from newcastle way so will have been heading for the A69. Not like i would have missed a LY 182 is it lol Russ

Good because i do too, will keep my spirits up till the clio is finished! Russ

Well i've sold the Westfield after less than 2 weeks, served its purpose of getting me out of the Leon and made me a few bucks along the way. Wanted something to use on a weekend or to go somewhere in, instead of pinching the Mrs' car all the time or taking the van. Considered all sorts of...

lol A longmans or similar btcc motor on itbs will make that kind of power and is nowhere near £20k. Be interested to see the spec though. Any more info on the clio engine spec too, is it a mk1 cup car so not an F4r at all, 2.0 megane engine or 1.8 F4 with megane head only? Just curious. Russ

Well the Leon finally went today, never had to work so hard to sell a car, will have to think very hard in the future whether i buy a purpose built racer again as the the market is so limited when its time to sell them on. The guy that bought it had a 2005 Westfield Megablade that i took in part...

Haynes manual should give you that iirc only the engine wiring it doesn't have, pretty simply once you get a look at it. Russ

Its because there is only a handful of special Toyo 'performance' dealers or whatever they're calling them now, they're the only ones supplied direct from toyo with R888's and obviously the price has gone through the roof due to lack of competition, i cant even get them anywhere trade now...

Nice pics, will have to get the ph1 all sorted and bring it out for a play Russ

Car looks really good, glad its going well. Any more info on the brakes, what calliper model are they and were they built as a one off for you, i know ap do an off the shelf 295mm 4 pot kit for the clios. Russ

Smallest 'legal' plate is the original one, i'm sure there are many variations you can 'get away with' but none will be legal. As for the mods, an inferno on grey turinis is awesome as it is, wouldn't mess about with smoothing the bumper or the carbon bonnet imo. Russ

Nice one mate, looks right at home out there, although i think i would get b0llocked at scrut with numbers on my leon like that! Russ
