Had the parts delivered by R sport , and they are wrong ! might have buggered up my plans for rallying this weekend now , just taken the old hub off my car and its a lot bigger than the one they sent me , I think they have sent me a standard clio road car hub , even after giving them the numbers...

As bushes are either solid , or very hard rubber , it vibrates and rattles a lot and its this you can hear unfortunately

Back in the day eh Tony :D Here's my incar breaking the hub , I got my son to crop it so you didn't hear me shouting the 'C' word at my car lol http://youtu.be/eY_k1GzapT0

I have already fitted a road car axle after bending the race one in Caerwent , I couldn't see any difference in the beam itself , I took out the road spec bushes and fitted the race ones into it

The new hub was £109 and the bearing was £48 , don't know how much the pins are , but I have to wait for them to come from France , the other two parts i'll have tomorrow. As I still have fuel and tyres ready to go , i'll put a late entry into the Fat Albert stages on saturday , need my rally...

I haven't got the car here to see if has a number on it , in the end I ordered it from R sport along with a new bearing , should have it on wednesday , have also ordered 2 pins but they will be a couple of weeks when they go to pick other stuff up they said , I could have had some shipped over...

I managed to snap a front hub on my rally car after hitting a rock on the weekend , I have given Renault parts in Cardiff the part number on the disc I have been given by R sport but they say they are unavailable , I'm sure I have read they are off a Laguna RT ?? Anyone know which ones they...

is it cranking over slow or normally ?

I think its human error on the rebuild on mine rather than the gearbox itself , it would seem the barrel is not going into the correct position when I have changed gear , its out very slightly which means the gear stick won't move for the flat change to engage when you select another gear , it...

No haven't had it back off Fred yet , as soon as sunday is done , the engine and box are coming out and the box has to go back to SWR as its not changing gear cleanly so they can strip and sort it out , and i'm hoping the engine will be ready so I can put it back together , test it , and...

Yes I had to have one made , they are different to yours , not even R Sport supply them anymore Mines all back together and ready now

Well didn't get my car fixed for Jersey , couldn't get a drive shaft for it , apparently my car is an early one and the shafts are different and unavailable ! tried everywhere to get one , even R Sport don't supply them anymore , so I contacted the company who made the shafts for my Golf and...

Hi Andrew Are you going to Pembrey on sunday , I'm competing in my clio so come and say hi Cheers Ian

Don't know , I'll ask SWR tomorrow

Ok no problem , do you know anyone that can dyno it while its with you save me running round doing it

Are they for the 172 Clio race car , how much you want for them ? Pm me your number

Bugger ! been out tonight to set up the spot lights and broke a shaft in the lanes , anyone know where I can get an O/S shaft from tomorrow for the sadev race car set up ? i'm off to Jersey early wednesday morning , might be taking the golf if I can't sort it

No waiting for Fred to get a new head gasket and get back to me . Sorted out the lamp pod , and painted , lamps fitted and HID kits wired in Couple of jobs left to do and she's ready to go , I'm flying over to Jersey on friday afternoon until sunday afternoon to do the recce , then back...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He No you want a bolt :D

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He its easier for me to see as I have my car up in the air on the ramp , and a spare engine on an engine stand under it !

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He no its not the water pump , you can see that clearer on my pic , water pumps to the right

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He It looks like a bolt holding the front cover on , I'm sure it was going to cause problems it would be leaking by now ?? the front cover is also held in place by the sump as well. Looking at your photo , and...

Re: James/BigAsh 182 Race Car by TDF... It doesn't get much better than this! *Pic He I have a bolt in mine

Quick update as I haven't touched the car since Epynt , changed the sump last week , so will start it today , battery has gone a bit flat so won't turn over fast enough to start it , going over the jump that cracked the sump has done quite a bit of damage , after having a good look at it , its...

yes it makes sense , I know what your saying

ok no problem , looking forward to seeing how the car goes with more power , if its as good as my Golf i'll be well happy , did Wales rally GB over the weekend in it , and apart from snapping 3 driveshafts , 2 of them on the first stage 3 miles into it which halted our first day , I had a great...

hopefully its the gasket , have you measured them to see whats wrong ? did you speak the PEC about the gasket ?

Fred said it was a poor fit , and the bore is undersize so the pistons are catching it at TDC , he seemed to think the gasket might have been packed wrongly and is the wrong size

Pah like thats going to happen , you will have your arse handed to you on a plate by an old man lol , see the seeding is out now No haven't had it yet , he's having issues with the head gasket I supplied which came from PEC so he's trying to sort that out now
