The battery should float at 13.68v so its possible the altenator is damaging these batteries by overcharging by keeping them at 14.4

The red-tops are aircraft batteries which neatly sale quite well in the race car market, they will not cope with everyday use a car will put them through. Keeping them on constant float charge is a good idea. A bike charger is ideal, little loom and connector down by front bumper and just clip...

Are they quicker by any noticable amount Chris? Wonder how the speed achieved changed? LOL @ Pheonix giving you tips on what camera you should have bought. I couldnt get shots like that with £10k of kit.

You need a wideband sensor to be any real use and cost/life are issues, they are more sensitive and are prone to fail in everyday use.

Yeah, thats exactlly what i am reffering to :) You are right about achieving 100% thinking about it, but i cant be far off

Mark, if you discard the mechanical sympathy part, do you think by clutch control and brake modulation you cannot achieve the same degree of smoothness in the Clio as heel-toe? Do you ever comprimise outright braking and therfore laptime due to the brakes limits on the Clio?

I disagree with the progress part, i see the advantages to its use tho

So can anyone see an advantage of not preforming heel/toe? (in track situations) I do blip on the road but when going balls out i shift the conventional modern way.

I was heading into Torquay around then but my plate is different, WJ05

As above, Low 1.30s on road tyres in a standard 1*2, below this and your proper fast. Havent had many clear runs and dont expect to if you do an action day there. I forget the corner names or muddle them up but going by this i make good time at Quarry (needs bottle to brake over Avon rise) but...

Cheers mate, done now, was only a bloody leaf right down inside! Now found the throttle butterfly motor is making a constant noise when engine is off but ignition on....... Grr, never ends!!!!

Damn, would be ideal quite nice to keep it standard looking, not keen on aftermarket unless the rest of the car is stripped etc

My heater/AC fan has started making noises (like a tape player on fast forward, all speeds but gets faster on higher settings),, Whats the easiest way to get access to it please?

Mines started going too, its got a small tear in thumb grip as M!keydee's above and also melted slightly on edges. Whats the 197 wheel like, hopefully a direct replacement with bag and buttons???

Are the vans different?

Type of wall is quite important, before you buy fixings! A 19incher wont be any trouble to hang.

Bosch do a 2400w one, doubt you'll get stronger without going industrial http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B000FMRXCG/?tag=cliospnet01-21

LMAO, must stop the temptation of getting B and C stickers made

Doh, knew id get spotted, did the neons flash in time with the bass?

Yeah, just to point out, i know people who know these people, not my scene at all!!!

Second one aint his i dont think. The guys name is Elliot, works as a postie. www.darksidecruisers.co.uk

He lives in Somerton, theres a red one very similar too.

On another forum, no Renault techies around today?

Is there any other choice for LCD ;) Ambilight is awesome, wouldnt go back to a non-backlit screen.

As used by Renault for better throttle response?

Blacks are important! Comes down to personal preference but id bet a Pioneer Plasma with a lower res screen will impress you more than a 1080 LCD. More to it than pixels! If you are set on 1080p, then check its a native 1080 screen rather than a diff res that just accepts 1080. ps, i have a...

But why even run a re-circ? 7 psi will be no problem without and the throttle response is massively improved. I ran 28psi with no dumpvalve and no problems for a fair while on my old car. If you want a far cooler noise 'chatter' is the way, tho id use an airbox to reduce this.

How does it fuel? Does it run stand alone managment? Edit, runs a knock sensor according to the link. Interested how it actually works still Why run dump valve at those pressures on a no-doubt robust turbo? Ruins drivability and produces a ghey noise

The Fisher Price mobile and Winstons Rat are top of my list, superb cars. Mines not really distinct enough for the calendar but i do love action shots, so here's one of mine by Chris

Just mentioned the Reyland cossie in the other thread, i sooo love that car. Fantastic photo's as always Chris but makes me sad i missed it lol
