i can reccomend kwik fit as you alo get a 30 day free check and adjust so if you hit a pot hole you can get it done again free aslong as its within 30days
unless your asking for some special set up to your specific needs you wont have to ask for anything :)
the machine will have the standard specs stored and they will just bring all the adjustable adjustments into OE spec
haha im not sure ill aim that high, at the moment im just hoping it makes it back from the mappers, its the 1st engine ive ever built or even stripped fully down haha :s
cant wait for race season now!!
it was fairly competative, it won its class at harewood haha.
the fact its so light makes up for the power i think, but it just runs out of steam on the long streights/steep hills which is why ive had to build the new one.
my best time at loton is 66.36 seconds and thats the only event ive done...
thats good going! my 106 was that slow i could drive flat out everywhere, resulting in me winning the consistency award the service hydraulic speed championship haha
im not sure to be honest i may pop to a shelsley or prescott if im off and the weathers nice :)
even with that spec i dont think ill have as much power as your clio im aiming for 170bhp but with good torque figures. and i already have a quaife diff in my current box, but this year ill be running...
ive sold the 1.6 8v i was running last year and replaced it with a 1.6 16v that ive rebuilt in the kitchen haha.
the engine will be running jenvey throttle bodies, bigger injectors(from a clio 172 haha) ultimate fast road cat cam, all new valvetrain, plenty of head work, L&B flywheel and pullys...
i went with a mate a few months ago to pick his old mans 360 up. did they still have the two rolls royces upstairs? if so did you feel the carpet hahaha
some quality cars there!
Right then, where's best to buy a go pro for in car videos? I don't need a big bundle I just want a nice decent spec camera with good sound. I've seen there a few versions and there's 3 series but I know bugger all about them apart from that I want one haha

im not sure what it is about them, but at every rally there's always some really horrendous examples and for some reason i still smile as they go past haha
Its the mg live show, its been on all weekend but tomorrow there running a sprint on the stowe circuit. Ill be getting there at 7:30 but practices start at 9am and the timed runs follow so probably 12 onwwards.
There's a good amount of entries from various championships so should be a good day...
i didnt plan on it but it didnt take long to start faffing about with it :D
1st of the jobs was lowered all round 20mm after discovering i had a snapped front spring.
then the aero wipers came.
then on sunday i entered it into an auto solo of which i won a funky hip flask for a 1st in class and...
I just fitted a universal stretch boot kit for the cost of £3 with all the clips and grease included.
I found the standard boot was very rigid and rather flex on a lock it would just pull its self off. But with the stretch boots being very flexible that problem should no longer occur.
Liking it so far, the drive is 100x tighter than my previous c4 vts. It is very drab inside but you know what your getting so no surprise.
had it on the ramps today and one of the front springs has snapped and lost half a coil so replacing all 4. also the outer cv boot clip had slipped off the...
Hi all!
bought this clio the other day and am already having to sort a few things so thought it will be useful to be registered on here.
so no doubt you'll hear from me in the near future asking for recommendations tips 'n' tricks while i learn my way around them
