Attention track day guys :
The CMComposite boot lid.
How are you going about attaching the boot lid to the existing hinges .
As there are no holes at the moment for any bolts ect . Pics would be good . [emoji106]
Oh sweet Jesus Mark , I bet you were cursing that scoop . Was it a case of you didn't think it would leak , and when it rained it poured in.
Those grommets are a decent edition to the scoop and keeping it sealed in winter a very good shout .
Ah I see what you mean now , Christ is my eye sight that bad I thought I was looking at holes lol . Now I see the rubber bungs .
So in summer they are removed , and in winter they are plugged .
Measure the shaft diameter with a set of vernier callipers and take 2mm off what you got - boom there you have it .
Besides o rings stretch anyway . So get a smaller one . It's only to stop water getting in - don't work for s**t anyway . Lube it up with copper grease when fitting it back
You will need the timing all set up if you are having the pulley changed.
It's not a quick bolt on bolt off job. Once the bolt for the crank is loosened that's it the "timing is out" .
Is this the kit with the specified silicone hose and air filter you lot are all on about at the specified length .
@NorthloopCup knows this kit [emoji12].
Soon to be fitted .
Yes Ph1 , the small piece under the shifter had to go because the extended lower rod was fouling against it . As you see the pics is how it is , left like that . I cut the heat shield with tin snips .
I've had no issues so far .
Got to love Renaults for water ingress. Happened to me when I got my Dci .
Was a goodN so I showed it the love .
As above ^^^^ Mine was the Sunroof , and the centre drain on my 172.
Get some pics up fella so we can see your damage .
When I fitted mine , I didn't do half as much damage as yours sounds .
I cut mine and positioned it accordingly to suit best as it would go .
I run 20m spacers on track , I won't use the bolt to hub type as these can work loose out on track through certain conditions . I prefer the spacers that go over the studs . Only 4 nuts to keep an eye on . [emoji106]
Not had any issues with the spacers and had them a few years now.
Sorry to hear about you now being unemployed . Chin up I'm sure something will come your way shortly .
You say up until march was a quiet period - have you forecasted for that period ?
Hi Russ - liking your diet process on the loom - did you remove all necessary wires and cut back to the plugs on the UCH ?
Also the rear loom - have you taken the loom out all the way back to the multi plugs at each front door and then on to the UCH ?
Have you any diagrams to hand by any...
I've did the same yesterday - I did a mock up in cardboard and then cut out the plastic to the shape , made it a lot easier but long winded.
Not a bad job I thought .
The 3 pin purple pin would have gone to the air con pressure switch , the 2 pin white connector plugs in to the rad fan motor . There is another 2 pin black connector near the purple one that would be for the resistor to run cooling fan at half speed - that's only for functioning air con system...
