    Bimarco Dakar and Expert

    I'm looking at a pair of seats for trackdays and the Bimarco Dakar or Expert look decent enough and work out well priced coming direct from Bimarco. I'm not a fatty so the Futura are too wide. Bimarco reckon the Dakar suits 30-32" waist and the expert is 32-34. I'm a 32 and my wife is smaller...

    Electric window switch

    When I get my car back I'm looking to sort out the drivers side window switch for the passenger window. The switch on the passenger side works ok so it should just be a faulty switch on the drivers side. Is it possible to get just the switch or do I need to get the complete grab handle and...

    Catcams 422

    Obviously some high CR pistons would be nice to make the most of them but will they work with the standard items without the valves touching? If not, how much better are the 421 over the Pipers?

    Valve guides

    Sending the head off on Monday for a port and polish and some new valve stem seals. The engine runs very well and is on 87k so is it worth doing the guides for an extra £200 (I'm not even sure they need doing) or just get the seals done?

    Camber bolts

    Do you fit them in the top or bottom hole? I know it's usually the top hole. The reason I ask is a friend fitted his in the bottom hole to get more camber adjustment.

    What are the weight savings on the Clio from a set of poly windows (Found a value of 5kg for the fronts but what about the rear?) and a fibreglass tailgate with full internals. Also can the tailgate be used with the standard lock and hinges?

    Setting up camber bolts

    I had my alignment measured and the camber on the front is 0. This is after lowering the car a couple of weeks ago. What is the most camber I can get with camber bolts? Also the rear is -1.5 left and -1.25 right. I've got some Eibach adjustable camber shims which suit Laguna mk1, megane...

    Tar pads

    There are 6 tar pads on the floor of the Clio, 2 in each front foot well, 2 under the seats and 2 in the rear foot wells. Does anyone know how much these weigh? Whilst I've got the seats out I thought I'd scrape them off if they weigh enough.

    My rear brakes are down to the metal and the discs are worn too. Are the discs, pads, bearings and abs rings the same on all mk2 Clio sports or do they differ? I've got a ph1 172.

    AC delete kits

    Tried my aircon yesterday and it was warmer than outside. Also the aircon radiator doesn't look the best which is a bit disappointing so I'm thinking of removing it all. There's a cup setup that Mitch is selling. The pure motorsport kit and another method of just replacing the compressor with...

    Ph1 side strips

    I got some plain black side strips for my Ph1 172 off here but I opened them up today and found they are different to my current ones. The top strip is one of my current ones and the bottom is what I've received. As you can see there's nothing to fix it to the car.... Also on one of them it...

    Is there any way of me finding out what ratios the JB3 196 gearbox has? I've got the gearbox guide and the .exe file knocking around but neither of them specify this box.
