Just in case anyone is on the lookout for track tyres for the weekend, I've found these 195/50/15 AR-1's for only £99 each, which is way cheaper than I've seen elsewhere. Free shipping too! https://ebay.us/m/ucAclq

Have you got the pulleys mounted on the right way around. I put one of mine on back to front when I first set it up, it's easy to do. This is how they should look:

Nice win, I'd entered into that draw too! Looks like it was a DreamCarGiveaways car too at one point, I'm sure one of the previous owners will be around in the Facebook groups. https://dreamcargiveaways.co.uk/competitions/clio-182-cup-1000

I knew I recognised that plate from somewhere! My mate used to own it back in 2020, I think it was one of the original press cars. As it turns out it was an absolute rotbox, which was only discovered when it was sold to @172PH1 https://cliosport.net/threads/our-new-ph1-172.836630/

I've got the halfords 3T low profile one, its a good bit of kit, ableit a bit hefty. If you know someone with a Halfords trade card, it'll bring the price down to £128. Or if you're up in the Lake District, you can borrow my trade card!

Looks like it's been made into a turbo'd track car, judging off this post from 2023:

That'll be the number for that disposable flip phone, so I don't think they'll be too worried that its out there.

Couldn't find any info for the 1.4's, but the 1.2 16v's make max power at 5500rpm, so you're definitely shifting way too early. *Just looked on wikipedia, it suggested 1.4 16v's make max power at 6000rpm so no wonder you're finding it a bit slow :LOL:

That’s no bother! I just went for a check in the boot of my Megane, this is what came with me:

They came with a couple of cans of tyre repair foam to help bodge a puncture.

I thought I recognised the number plate of your car. Looks like you nearly went a bit too deep at Aremburg!

Hopefully this is of some use...

This seems like what you need, it's for a Phase1 but I can't imagine it's much different to a 182: https://cliosport.net/content/guides/fubar/door_cards.pdf

From memory, there's the 4 bolts that go in the bottom of the gearbox, 3 long bolts that go in the top, and two studs with nuts. One stud is on the left side of the gearbox halfway down, and the other runs into the back of the gearbox next to the starter. I think this is all the bolts here...

Looks like a Phase 1 dogbone mount to me, going off the picture you posted above.

Diamond Motors in Long Eaton might be your best bet.

No.4 is one of these: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/313701813041?chn=ps&_ul=GB&google_free_listing_action=view_item&gQT=2

Oh right, if it’s just a straight swap I’ll get some bought 👌🏻

Someone more knowledgeable than me might be able to jump in, but yeah around that power level I'll probably run out of fuel if they try to push it any further. I might pick up a spare set of 197's just in case, but they might not be necessary. Plus I'm not really sure if they require any special...

I'm off to EFI on the 8th to get my Clio mapped, so I'm happy to share my results once it's done so you know what direction to go with yours. Mine's got 197 Cams, Phase 1 airbox with ITG filter, 182 manifold with decat, ported/polished inlets and the PMS lightweight pulleys with aircon...

Number 20 for sale on eBay, hasn't done many miles since it was last sold: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/205489578334?_trksid=p4375194.c101781.m46343

I think the quote for my Clio at Anglesey in 2023 was around £100, but it's worth about 25p so your M4 being around £200 seems like a decent deal to me.

£200 seems pretty decent tbh. When my Dad tried to get track insurance for his Yaris GR at Anglesey, they wanted around £600!

I've gone with the R26.R DMF in the end, came to £282. Compared to the TTV SMF which was £380ish, I'm happy to save the £100 over a very minor loss in performance.

Spot on, I figured it would make more sense to keep the DMF seeing as it's mostly a road car! Thankfully I can get a LUK DMF for the R26.R off Autodoc for around £280, so I'll go ahead and buy that. 👌

Hi folks, The clutch in my R26 has decided to s**t the bed, so I'm in need of some advice. I've already ordered a new R26.R clutch, but I'm wondering if I should buy a new R26.R DMF or upgrade to a SMF? As it stands the car is mostly a road car, but I have used it on track. I know people say...

I could grab you some pictures tonight if needed, don't think I've got any currently. They've probably done about 30k miles, the top engine mount has zero play. They only one I don't have is the dogbone mount, but they differ between the Ph1 and Cups anyway.

Are you looking for new mounts, or would you take some used ones? I've just taken all 4 off my car to replace them with solid mounts, so you're welcome to them? They were all in pretty decent condition, didn't seem to be much play in them at all.

It'll be that rubber mount with the two prongs that the gearbox sits on top of, on the subframe.

Number 164 (reg: Y172 SDB) has appeared for sale again, asking £7250: https://www.carandclassic.com/l/C1869427
