Latest YouTube update is going live I will update the thread soon too with pics (y)

So after much rolling around as I cant find my old engine stand anywhere I've found the issue, and it seems, very luckily I've not caused any damage to the block/bore. There is a little mark in there but I cant feel it so a deglaze will sort it I'm sure. Had a mare when stripping it all down...

So its been pretty much a year since I first had the car out on the road, all has been going amazingly to be fair and I was going to make a video to show it. The daily had been beat on for a very long time. It had had a bigger turbo slapped on and delivered some very good performance for the...

get it out (y) :D

Been a long while since I've done any actual work on the Twingo, so today I took it upon myself to do what shall be called the @CreweTube mod. Shave over 3kg saved by whipping out most of the rear bumper support and crash protection. All good unless I get a shunt so fingers crossed that doesn't...

a virtual one :LOL:

Usually there's an early bird discount for members... anything like that going on this year for the budget conscious amongst us?

I didn't have it up for long, I've had a fair bit of interest in the last few weeks actually even though its not up for sale. I think its proven itself now as reliable and with the recent updates with the suspension and turbo it's proving its pace too so a little more desirable maybe 🤷🏻‍♂️ The...

Another brief dragy update..... doubt I will be able to better this 60 to 100 time tbh, the gearbox doesn't lend itself to really fast shifts, not sure if a different oil could speed things up but it's a pretty fast car tbh, a 4.99 would be nice.... I will if I can try some 0 to 60s and...

Not too shabby with the wheels chirping in 3rd. Hopefully I can shave a touch more off it 🤞🏻

This wasn't Paul's one 😁 We're you there? Did we meet? I'm so shite with screen names and real life 🤣🤦🏻‍♂️ sorry

Indeed a little longer and I'd been back up beside him. 3rd gear starts for the next run 👌🏻 3rd for me is usually a 60 to 95mph pull

for those without instagram

In with excuses, it was wet and would wheel spin in 3rd. This is the only pull I got but its all in 4th, I'm normally in 3rd till 95leptons. I think on a dry day in 3rd it would of been closer. The car is a dtc e92 m3 with decats and mapped. Not too shabby for a twingo I don't think 🤔...

More parts here to just sit in the garage until I can actually roll around under the car. Set of rs133 rear hubs with 7mm taken off the backs. This should 1, make them totally true to the stub axle itself and 2, give me some extra clearence to stop the wheels catching the arches 👍🏻

its bad, my garage is full of boxes ive not even opened 🤦‍♂️

More bits for the parts pile

keep it up, brings it back to the old days for me. Out of the box thinking and individual, and to top it off getting dirty doing it yourself (y)

The usual waffle about the car, a trip to EFI parts and the results. Small issue with the actuator on the way meaning I drove 100+ miles with no boost, It became an NA f4r.... it was slow lol. The next video should be a lot better (y)

Will take a look onto it 👍🏻

No saving them for the next build

Here's a fun one to look at, in the real world I'm not sure how it would fair but a list of 300ish bhp cars per ton

cheers bud, yep me and the car are very much up for getting out alot more this year (y)

cheers (y)

Lol well its fast for a twingo/renault but if you are already in a modern super saloon or something its probably only quick. Yeah it handles very well, swapping out to all the rs133 items improved it but the rear arb made a big difference. It was pretty good on the GT/Clio 172 parts to be fair...

Long old day, but not as long as they used to be for me. Anyway I set off in the morning ready to a nice gentle drive up to see Chris at EFI Parts. All was going well until I was making some choo choo noises joining the m5, suddenly I had no boost at all :eek: A look in the mirror saw no smoke...

if you want to yeah? (y) @Brigsy won the last comp, Jon how bad was the crap box?

Right in for mapping at EFI tomorrow at 12.30, I really want to scrape the 300bhp mark without blowing up just to willy wave. So what are your guesses? Setup is the same as before but with a proper flow through fuel rail and a 19T hybrid turbo....

Not really had much time to do anything or much to do on this really. Replaced the oil cap as mine has been broken forever, found the correct part numbered item on ebay so got that. I was gifted a stack of bits that included a decent sized air filter which looks tidy, it's from a mk7 golf but...

seems there a fair few here in the Shire, will have to sort out our own mini meet soon (y)
