They did a review on gadgetshow too - right up to the £££ cables - made no difference at all I'm not suprised - it's a digital signal not analog so cable will make f**k all difference

Yes. They are softer and have more tread because they are rain tyres lol. Conti's are awesome though - ran them for years on 106's

I want this soooo badly!

I won't be at the newark meet - sorry

^^ Yup - as proven by the video I posted 3 pages back and people still are ranting saying they're terrible lol

None of this will ever happen.

Cool cheers mate - put up a wanted thread, hopefully someone has a whiney one they want rid of. If cupman doesn't buy Andy's I'll run up to newcastle and grab that :)

The standard ones are 48mm tapered - I believe they taper down to 45mm As chip said it's got nothing to do with "getting too much air in" - the engine limits that, 45mm are still plenty big enough to flow more air than the 2litre engine will.

Damn - missed out on andy's cup box. Think I best start trawling t'bay lol

Hrmm that's a pretty good idea - as then I can take the new LSD with crownwheel over to Agency and have them rebuild it into my box while I do a bit of shopping. I'm sure I've read Tony say they will do a rebuild while you wait sort of thing somewhere.

Yeah I'm with you there Chip. It's £680 ish incl. vat but then gearbox needs stripping and rebuilding, and the crownwheel will need removing and heat fitting to the new diff. So probably still looking at £1100 My other concern is that if I do that I'll have to just pick a gearbox company...

Aye. Unless it comes with one?

Interesting update to this. The M Factory diff is coming in under £700 and apparently is a straight fit without any machining required!

200bhp - 4 cylinders = 50bhp per cylinder. 40-42mm size. Though saying that I must admit I didn't read your original post correctly - the standard jenvey kit for the clio is a 48mm tapered itb Depending on what power you are aiming for 50's might be better BUT you'd need a matched inlet...

Yeah actually now I've looked at it you're right - you'd have to chop the top of the turret and weld a new one in. Silly design :(

As Ed says. But looking at tin top rules it's VERY vague anyway It says you have to keep the original pick up points, but you can fit adjustable parts. If the existing top mount holes where kept then you could say that's the original pick up points. Then oval the hole out and fit an adjustable...

You need to do what Stu did with his 106.

Re: Bateseys 172.. Getting a daily is the best thing I've done. Forecast snow again in October/November and I'll be chuckling to myself in the 4wd barge hehe Good work on the paint. Looks good for a diy job! I need to get my roll cage re-done as I painted it with brush-on hammerite lol

There is some proper s**t on this thread. It's the opinions people have of trackdays in this thread that makes me want to go into sprints and timed events rather than be on track with idiots lol

LMFAO at all the slating. They're epic in the wet which funnily enough is what they're made for. If you want to hoon around in the dry then buy something made for that rather than overheating the rainsports and winging about them being s**t *most ironic post on Cliosport as I track my car...

Too big

This is what confuses me - Neil is absolutely right Here's the paragraph from the waiver I signed at Cadwell with Javelin Now I'm not legal expert but it certainly says you understand the risk and that you will be unlikely to claim from any 3rd parties. To me the court should have thrown...

Welcome. Another local cup owner :)

If person B had insurance it would have been covered If person B had taken number plates off it'd be pretty difficult to identify them

Mark is awesome - the 16v conversions he used to do on 106's - you honestly couldn't tell they weren't factory. Insane attention to detail. They welded my cage in for me - it's the only bit on my car I didn't do myself. Looking at this though I wish I'd let him do my ITB's haha

Looking back at the video there's easily another 3 or 4 seconds to be gained if I had any idea where the corners went lol I can't wait to get back there - leaving the rainsports on for now as hoping to do a few february/march sessions when it will no doubt be snowing knowing this country

Try harder ;)

Hahaha it's not a bad wet time when your tyres are hitting the arches, you don't know the track and you're on rain sports I wouldn't call them crap ;)

Where exactly did you read they are good in the dry? They are a fantastic wet/winter/autumn tyre, I have them on mine and can easily drive around people on track in the wet. But if you hammer the hell out of them then they do overheat and go off. They're nowhere near as bad as you make...

You've got them the proper way round - they won't pop open if the wind hits them :)
