Thanks lads, appreciate the support.

Hi Rich, If your car has a speedo drive, i dont think the abs rings are used for speed input. Bit of a weird one this, if you check the earths and its still a problem give us a call as its easier to go through it all. 07759 437181 Thanks Mike

Hi Ben, The only way i know this is possible is with the CLiP diagnostic tool. That said ive never had to use it to get rid of air in a system on a clio. If your bite is good but pedal is 'long' it could point to another issue? Have you have any work done to the braking system to have the...

Hi there, IMHO its not the plugs that cause this problem, possible tdc sensor, possible key/immobiliser fault? Next time it happens, watch the immobiliser light in the middle of the dash, ignition on, it should go out and the car start, if it flashes or stays on solid you have an immob. fault...

Hi Scott, If your battery isnt flat then yes the alternator will be charging without it connected (I know this is the case on later renault models) The wire doesnt trigger the light like older vehicles would, its a signal wire that will only trigger the light if 1) its connected and 2) there...

Jacko5, Have you checked the battery connections and engine to body earths? Your fault is different to a normal speedo fault as the engines rpm is not generally affected. Do any fault lights show up when the fault occurs? If not I dont think you will see a recorded fault on a reader. Id...

Thank you very much guys. Really appreciate the support. Jay, if you fancy coming to brands, let me know. KX academy will be interesting, I have had my final interview so just have to wait now! Anyone fancy some passenger laps at donnington at the end of the season? Josh

You could have had an awning coffee! Weather was awful in the afternoon. Post them up in the Media section mate! Cheers

Good work, you should have come and said hello. Thanks, it was a tough weekend! Let me know if your coming to another race meeting, we will get some passes for you.

The "Y" take off for the wastegate is at approx 30 degrees, so I very much doubt its to do with the manifold construction. (Unless there is something magical going on at high RPM) As you know its not as simple as "45mm will flow 600bhp" (although we agree this wastegate should easily be able to...

We are sitting at approx 450 currently. 1.5 bar, but suffering from boost creep. Waste gate is 45mm and just can't flow enough. Looking at options. We will be getting another map sensor shortly to allow us to run more boost. Teething problems have been; a V band flange blowing slightly...

Coming soon. We want some figures for you first ;)

The dampers life should not be affected by lowering the car. The bump stop prevents the damper from bottoming out so to speak. The spring is also stiffer than the standard item which compensates for the lower ride height. The only reason a lowered damper would fail would be due to a...

Having some problems with boost creep currently. Drives well though, less laggy than expected. We will have a decent update coming soon. Josh

He's bought an M5!

Hi all We did toy with the idea of piggy back to keep the dash functions but for ease and simplicity we opted to run an Omex 600 on our own custom loom coupled with an after market dash cluster (AIM or similar). The compression ratio has been lowered to slightly below that of a stock...

Update (again, pictures to come). Car was running on the standard ECU with 750cc injectors and a 197 throttle body. We are going to be replacing it with an aftermarket ECU. This is for better control and safety more than anything. It does mean that none of the dash will work because of the...

Yes mate, do! Almost finished.

It also has a 197 diffuser. Front near side bonnet to bumper looks a little ropey too!

I'm sure I heard someone say she was driving.... but whether that is true or not is a different story.

That crash today at camp was really bad (in the fiat). They were lucky to get out of that unscathed! Good day though!

Put me down (Josh)

We will get one, when it's a little more completed :)

Small update, no pictures Engine Started today, still be another few days before it's road worthy though More info to come.

Wont see it when its ceramic coated anyway :rasp:

There is much you dont know ;)

Got a set we are trying :), theoretically they are good. But reality is different.

Well, I have made a truck flap. However I dont think I will be using it. Water will just accumulate in the pipe, then once it opens it will spray sooty water everywhere :)

screamer pipe :) its the exhaust off the external wastegate. :)

Update Exhaust manifold manufacturing, first design: Not happy with the runner lengths, so number 2: Better, but still not happy (plus number 1 runner fouling on the starter motor) So here is the final layout (before the collector). Here is the final manifold, fully back purged...
