Last year I noticed my passenger rear caliper outer dust seal had a split in it - stupidly I just left it because it seemed to be ok But I just checked the pads after Donington and the passenger rears are completely down to metal - which makes me think the caliper is probably stuck out I've...

Few of my shots from Saturday Sold my 70-200 f4/L and bought a 70-200 f2.8/L last week - first time I've used it and my god it's stunning. Just pin sharp all the time and focus is sooo fast Anyhoo.. Firstly tried some "panning through people" type shots like I've seen a few on here do...

Talk to me Can you get them from ANYWHERE at all anymore? Does anyone have a set that I could use to go and get more made? Etc... I think there's quite a market for them still and I want a set for my track car :D

Selling a load of my camera gear to make way for some new goodies Canon 70-200 f4/L USM I can't put into words how good a lens this is for motorsport/panning etc.. I'm only selling as I'm upgrading to the f2.8 The lens is absolutely mint...

About 6 months ago when my car came back out the garage from winter I noticed occasionally when I braked a creaking noise from under the car. Sounded horrible and I panicked that I might have left some subframe bolts undone from fitting my 182 mani. I checked ALL the bolts and nothing was lose...

I had a K-Tec stealth on my car but after fitting the ITB's and the car getting a tendency to spit flames I wanted something that actually stuck out - so I swapped it for an Oreca Group N system (2.25") I had a 200 cell sports cat made up for it and all was well - passes emissions tests for MOT...

I've had to ditch the standard door cards in my Clio to make room for the roll cage door bars - so I've ordered some oreca race cards My plan is to keep the electric windows - as it's also a weekend toy and will be seeing a euro trip again soon - but I don't want to use the standard switches...

I know it's a track car and I know I shouldn't care but the roof/spoiler on my cup has been annoying me for 6 months I parked it up under a tree at my girlfriends parents last year for the weekend and it rained on it - but I think the rain must have got tree sap in it too. When I next washed...

Little review of my experience with Adrian Flux over the past month I have been with Chris Knott for YEARS but as Adrian Flux are advertised all over modified car clubs, and sponsors of FCS etc.. I thought I'd give them a go So I rang up for a quote. It took AGES to tell the guy everything...

For anyone who's painted the interior of a clio (including roof etc.. basically fully stripped) - how many tins of paint (400ml) does it take? I've had a few quotes from bodyshop's but I'm moving house so money is a bit tight. I need to get the interior painted and the roll cage back in though...

I'm on track at Anglesey next month and then 1 day a month all year after that - so just doing a big of a service on the Clio Ordered plugs, oil, oil filter, ht leads (mine are shot) etc.. etc.. but then thought about gearbox oil I've read the threads on here with people saying it never needs...

Is there anyone selling Carbon Door cards and rear cards for the clio at the moment (other than streamline that want £400 for 4 flat bits of carbon LOL)? There was another company doing them but they seem to have vanished

Right - I know I shouldn't care how dirty the track car is but the old OCD cleaning ***** part of me won't die I have white 2118's and DS2500's - the nightmare combo Every week the wheels are black I used to just use meguiars alloy wheel cleaner which did a good job of getting rid of the brake...

I've got a bit of a weird "clunk" happening on the Cup when I brake - so last weekend I jacked it up and swung on everything to see if there's anything loose from the winter rebuild - couldn't find anything but I did stumble across the front wheels having a bit of play when you grab them at...

What 4-pot conversions will fit under 15" 2118s? Thanks

I treated myself last week to a new Fuji X100 I used to use my Canon 17-40mm f4L as a "walking around" lens - but it was huge and heavy, especially on my 7D. I started to realise a lot of the times I wish I had a camera I didn't because my dslr kit was just too big and expensive to have on me...

I know a lot of people on here are worrying about the new MOT laws and how it affects track cars Well I've just had mine done and it passed! I know I can only speak relative to the MOT'er who did my work - but basically my car is running ITB's, a Group N Exhaust with 200cell sports cat, Omex...

Driving around Lincoln I'm so sick of people doing 10mph while you watch the rest of the traffic driving off into the distance, and people NEVER use indicators I have no idea how modded car owners get such a bad rep - it's the "normal" people who are utter tossers Driving to work today and I'm...

On a track car that sees weekend plays out what would people have out of an oreca group N and a Yozza race system Really needs to be under 95db for track days. Any vids of Yozzas?

I'm looking at buying some catcam 422's next month and then getting my car mapped It's already got ITB's, Omex 600, 182 manifold etc.. etc.. I've heard the conrod bolts are a weak point and my engine is getting on a bit so I thought for £45 I might chuck some ARP bolts in to be on the safe side...

I fitted an oil sandwich plate (r-tech one I think off ebay) with my oil temp/pressure sensors in it It came with a rubber gasket that fits between the block and the sandwich plate - but when its warm it's leaking quite a bit of oil on my driveway :banghead: I'm taking the ITB's off this week...

I fitted my Jenvey bodies a month or two ago and it ran really rough - the balance was miles out and the TPS raw values were wrong etc.. etc.. It did however register around 14 on the wideband on idle I've now set the idle screw, balanced the bodies, and configured the TPS raw values on the...

I've got a 182 manifold fitted to my 172 Cup My MOT is due in march - I'm sure you can see where this is going They're connected at the moment with a link pipe that was "home made" - no cat What's my options for a cat to make it road legal? Is it just the K-Tec sports cat that's £300? Can you...

I'm picking up a pair of bimarco futura's in a few weeks for the clio - they've got side mounts and subframes and are already set to the perfect position for me so I'm happy HOWEVER next year I'm planning a long euro-trip down to monaco and other places and I don't want to have do all the...

Anyone on here ever done one? Anyone know some good ones on Flickr I can have a browse through?

Hoping you guys can help Working through the last parts I need to buy to get the Clio finished and out for a test drive - I need a filter for the bodies I looked at the foam ones (lots of options there) but then I read quite a few people have seen good results with airboxes After having a long...

I've got a K-Tec stealth exhaust at the moment with a 182 manifold and decat I'd prefer to run something that cuts into the bumper and comes straight out for next year Are there any off-the-shelf options? Ideally something around 2.5" outward rolled - or something subtle Don't want twin exit or...

Following on from my ITB/Omex thread I have a choice to make I'm fitting Jenveys next month and they come with an omex600 and loom I'm not keen on the thought of having a dashboard lit up like a christmas tree, and I'm not keen on having the standard loom and ecu just sat there doing virtually...
