If your really committed, get a grinder and chop it right down so that you can get a 22mm socket around it. Then you can really start showing it some leverage. Tough bolts will sometimes loosen a bit if you literally smack the bolt head with a hammer. The shock can free the threads a bit...

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) Good work. Much better than those horrible dual mass things.

awesome. Always wanted to go.

it's a similar decision on MK1s. F0xy and Whiteley are both using williams racks without PAS as this seller on ebay has described. The reason is that the manual racks are 'slow'. The williams rack is a faster rack (less turns lock to lock). I've tried to get quaife to make some, but there are...

my thoughts exactly.

ah don't say that. :( I might get a 1.2MK2 one from the scrappy and have a look at the hump situation.

This might just work. Dan = Genius. No doubt.

f**k me dan. That's a point. If anyone has any photos of a MK2 ARB, post em up. I'll go trawling the projects for a subframe setup.

The MOT information is interesting thanks. I was considering getting a torsion beam from the scrappy and using that as material to splice into the ARB. I've got a spare cheap 16v ARB which I can chop and weld so I'll give that a try. It's not going to be me doing the final welding. I've got a...

thanks for that. I'll keep them in mind. At the moment I'm looking for cheap and cheerfull,

thanks for your helpfull, usefull and informative post :D It's looking like it might end up that way! times are tough

OK, I could really do with some help. What is a Williams Anti-Roll Bar made from? Is it spring steel? Is it mild steel? or high carbon? It's a solid bar, and it's about 20mm dia. Reason for asking: Basically I've made myself a problem on my project car. It's a MK1 clio with a VAG 20v I've...

great result chris.

try learning off the job. It doesent pay that well.

172s have a reduced limiter in 1st i think and theres also a limiter reduction based on coolant temperature. Speedo working? Coolant temp sensor working?

my MK1 did that and it was the lambda sensor. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=314560

lovin the updates mate. Color is good. really impressed with the quality of finish!

most lambdas have heaters iirc. just get yourself a new upstream lambda, You'll see an economy increase and you won't regret it. Make sure it's the correct part. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=314560

Re: Clio TT (172 cup) stu, have you got a part number and price for the manual clutch lever?

pissed project thread effort on a friday night? FTL chicken kebab FTMFW

truck turbos on cars. Wins.

hmmm fishy.

What turbo you gonna run?

i see. Makes sense now.

for me, the big black sunroof frame is one of the worst parts of the valver, but I also agree with you on the plates and rivetts. I'd really like to have a go at a reskin sometime, coops car looks sick. But I reckon that'll be just prior to a full original color respray too. My paint work is...

Ariel is a nice touch mate. Wernt tempted with a sunroof plate and rivet job before doing this??

something I've been wondering for a while. These F4R conversions are all using a 172 Rad. Why? Could you not stick with the valver Rad and same the subframe mod?

Hai. I see you have a paint shop. WTF. I wants. Please paint mine. I keep scratching it while carrying things past it :( PS, What color? :D

Re: Mk1 F4R'd Track Car Project [2010 Winter Rebuild] Is that epic warefare-spec sump gaurd going back on too? was it 3 or 5mm? Love it. Cheers for the powdercoat PM, I can't find anyone that cheap down here, so I'm just going to cover the subframe in underseal. Spose I should dig out my...

erm. Leave it and hope for the best. Na. Changed my mind. Take it back
