I would love to try spa. Car looks immaculate!

For £500 you'd be better making it handle better. £500 for power mods will see you with very little extra.

Matched inlets make that little difference that it would be hard to notice anything with or without a remap.

Also, I've found it is best to use a 1/4" ratchet with 4" extension and flexi joint. Use this from the under side and the spanner from the engine bay.

Ive got some Goodyear eagle f1 aesimetrics on my Audi A4. Really rate them tbh, the grip is very good and been on for the last 4k. Not sure on wear rate yet but seem to be lasting ok.

Has the nut or bolt head rounded yet? If not, soak with WD40 and make sure you have good contact with a ring spanner and socket from either side. It should work free with a bit of persuasion.

Lol :p Should be spot on then. Means it is the normal flat spot. If you've just had the belts done then I'd save for the big power upgrades you mentioned rather than doing the cams on their own. Not going to be good back for your buck. Make your mind up what your looking for and then start...

They are M7 not M6. Renault seem to use a lot of M7 bolts for some reason.

What do you call big power? Think you might be disappointed. Matched inlet won't make a huge difference but every little helps. There is no point in getting a remap at the start of your power search. Bit like putting your trousers on before your pants. If you have that big a flat spot, you may...

And he calls himself a photographer as well.

The car will do very very little road miles, possibly just driving to and from the tracks, so possibly a gripper might suit my needs better. Sorry for all the questions but what is involved in fitting either and who would be recommended to do it? Cheers again mate.

Cheers for that mate. I will be racing hopefully but what costs do you think the plate diff would need in maintenance and how often(ish) would it need anything done to it?

Looking for someones else's point of view so cant answer my own question in that case!

I'm seriously thinking of getting one over a gripper or 02M setup but am undecided. whats your thoughts on them compared to a gripper with the whole traction v maintenance debate. (Bear in mind once mind is built I dont want to be taking the box out all the time unless its broke lol)

Sorry to read of your mishap but very honest of you to take full blame for it. Most would have blamed someone or something for it so fair play. Looks like it was good fun and will live again though so not all bad. Hope you get it back on the road at some point. Did this car have a quaife diff...

£40 for a coolant tank! Was thinking of getting one but maybe not now. Does look a million times better than the old one though.

Result, looking good mate.

I had issues with my catch tank cause I had the inlet to the tank in the outlet port. I seemed to give more oil mist that way than when I changed it to have the inlet in the inlet port. This was on a baffled catch tank.

Thats right, had a senior moment there. You can't have too much to do now then surely.

Cheers Danny, was good seeing you the other day. Thanks mate. I'll be going your route of box soon I think. Cheers Wayne, will do. How's yours coming along. Turbo sorted yet? Lol

Few more things off the list such as, Fitting the PMS shifter and dash with my gauge pod. I've gone for spa gauges for boost, water temp, oil temp and oil pressure. Also got an AEM wideband. Also trial fitted my new Bimarco Futura seat from the GB. It is bigger and wider than the cobra...

What catch tank is it? Is it plumbed in correctly?

For standard power the standard gap should be fine. Around 1mm I believe.

Good choice on the turbo. Is it a straight fit? Did you speak to Braveheart Developments about a hybrid? Is there enough length on the brake lines when on full lock?

Was it him though as there seems to be 2 of them. :p

Fronts are easy, rears not so much.

I have 20mm spacers and there is loads of room. EVOgone

AP CP5200 calipers will fit under 2118's with my custom brackets and 300mm scenic discs.

Lol, I can send you a drawing if want to steal it easier.
