Brembo HC

Nice purchase there Tom. Should be a solid car with the engine rebuilt by Fred!

Isn't it the oil pump that whines on startup? Mine stops after a few minutes. My brother's Megane 225 does it too. Always assumed it was the oil pump anyway.

It could be better yes, although it should handle fine in the corners. No doubt it's better than before it was done.

The bottom two readings from the first pic are the cross weights and you want that as close to 50% as you can, which it is.

Having used both DS2500's and CL RC5+ on track, I much prefer the CL's. They were awesome at Oulton Park on Saturday!

Spot on that mate.

Let us know how you get on.

Yeah I found that after I'd posted.

Something like this would be fine and is near identical to mine. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/U-BOLT-X-2-V-2-5-65mm-AERIAL-SATELLITE-POLE-UPTO-2-50mm-MAST-RADIO-HAM-/350490396131?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item519adb05e3

I actually got them off my mates dad, Paul. They were ones which are used to clamp TV aerial poles to the wall. Mine are 50mm wide by 70mm long if that helps. The width could be smaller if you wanted though.

Was looking for something like this, Thanks! Daft question but i take it you can connect this up then start the car, and not have to wait for it to actually charge the battery a bit?

Amazing!

How does your air con rad look, my brothers is all smashed by stones on his Megane. Also worth checking the air con pressure sensor just to the left of the rad.

I think 12 total is standard yeah. You can see they have changed it, it's gone from -00.06 to -00.22 total

It makes it more eager to turn in the direction you steer, that's why people have toe out for track use. Mine does follow some bumps in the road, but it's nothing serious. Yours will be worse than mine. The mods you have won't effect the steering. It's the tracking adjustments they have done...

If it's just a road car, get them to set it parallel i.e. 00.00 or as close to it.

You've got a bit of toe out on the front now. 11 minutes each side. I'm at 6 minutes (12 total), just to give you an idea.

Yeah, mine was the Silver 182. It's the standard airbox yeah, but with an aftermarket panel filter in i think. I've never opened it lol probably needs cleaning. The spark plugs need a change too, so it might have made 180bhp with those two things done :tongueclosed:

Managed to get the bonnet open Mike?

Use Ali tube rather than steel, it's a bit lighter and easier to drill.

@dann2707 This is my bar mount. That help? It mounts between the two seats using one headrest post off each, but the same could be used to mount it off one seat using both it's headrest posts.

Either there or on the rear X bars, Cub.

That's decent. I'm at Oulton on Saturday, so I might put the bar on tonight and take a pic.

I'll get a pic tonight. Where's your track day at?

I use the u-bolts to clamp around the two headrest posts, with two holes on each side going through the 25mm round bar and wingnuts to secure it. I think it's a lot more stable than the headrest posts slotting through the bar itself.

How much! :openmouth: Some 25mm round tube, 2 U-bolts, 4 wing nuts, GoPro handlebar mount. Done I'll get a pic of mine if anyone is interested?

Looking forward to Saturday!

Yeah around -0.5 on the front and -1.5 on the rear.

Ahh right, sounds like the coolant temp sensor then.
