There are two types of CMComposite ones. Cup racer replica ones. I got these ones for £70 IIRC brand new. They fit a 75mm pipe on the back.

This is absolutely insane Steve. A lot of inspiration in here on how to do some seriously great mechanical changes to a car.

Motorcare in Tunbridge Wells should be able to help failing Renault. Their manufacturer approval list is possibly the best in the country.

I'm going to chime in here with a slightly different question so I hope the OP doesn't mine. Rough cost of getting a SD 6 pointer fitted? I can do all the prep work, just not the welding.

Don't do that mate PS: Wheels = sexy Bay looks so nice and clean. I'll have me a bit of that. Danke

I posted a link to the vid but not the textual explanation behind it all :)

This just popped up on my feed too. Damn mighty car mods making me crave haltech http://www.haltech.com/knock-control/

This is what I was talking about on Saturday Dave. Not sure whether mini factory ECUs have this functionality built in but may be worth a bit of research. It definitely was an interesting watch none the less.

What doesn't look right to you mate? It looks OK to me if your car has A/C. Not that it would make a difference unless the A/C wire was activated anyway. I'll try and get a screen shot of mine next time I visit my car although that could be a couple of months at least.

Such an easy thing to do in a cup and of all the things that could happen 2 momento tyres and a great video of a flying stick are a good laugh! I must be most of the views on the video :tongueout: Great to meet you yesterday Keith and as I hope I said many times, really appreciate you taking me...

Yes! that £23 a month is a quarter of a track day in 2 months! Mine has been off the road for months, it's really good at gathering dust. If I had the money though I would rebuild the engine myself to learn about it, have a full cage fitted, rebuild the box and boost it. I'd also love to...

Low ball joints, had something similar on my car, used to wander and veer all over the place thans to probably 10mm movement. Also had something similar on another car which turned out to be a combination of terrible tyres and the tracking marginally out.

Ren stopped what she was saying to say how good that second photo is!

I'm still running mine with no problems. Admittedly I've done barely any miles in the car but have done one track day with it. The only thing I would like to change is having some proper spreader plates welding in but other than that it's very good for the money.

well it is, those ebay units are cloned units. you have to then install the software on your laptop. pretty much though yeah. Mine has paid for its self multiple times over.

nah. I bought one off ebay a few years ago. Should be plenty of people in your area with one. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-CAN-Clip-V151-OBDII-Latest-Renault-Diagnostic-Tool-Multi-languages-/281470405981?hash=item4188f18d5d:g:hwgAAOSw8cNUQMDM

if you can get this plugged into CLIP it will be very easy to diagnose. Usually a problem with one of the temperature sensors reading incorrectly.

The first time I did them I didn't clean up the backs and it took me hours, 2 broken tools and a blow torch. The second time I cleaned the backs up properly and had both sides done in an hour.

it's a 40 or 45 IIRC. Make sure you take some time cleaning up the threads on the rear of the bolts. It will save you hours, rounding the bolt and breaking tools. A dremmel and wirebrush is best.

This falls around a really busy period for me so I won't be able to make it. Sorry chaps.

yeah exactly. Other than maybe a couple of KG. You do need to run the roof loom for climate though! must be 100 grams! It does actually work without the roof loom however unless the controller is on min the mixer flap is all the way to oven mode as the climate registers -64 deg as the internal...

as a 182 non cup it might have cup packs which use a 84mm front bearing. Non cup hubs use a 72mm bearing. Call Renault and find out if you car has cup packs. Rear discs use the same bearing as a standard clio with drum brakes so. All bearings will appear on euro car parts with your reg, just...

they are totally different set ups, wiring, blower unit and heater matrix. It would be easiest to get the interior loom from a cup with the blower and matrix and swap it all over.

@Sunglasses_Ron use sikaflex 291 sealant on the frame, I had it on for 2 years, absolutely no signs of degredation and because it's flexible it also dampened the stupid creaking it made too...

I'd also love to know this. Got a couple to put in the cup but haven't found the right pics to show me where to wire into the ignition too.

So what a sad week it's been. The car wasn't getting any interest from the advert on ebay so I decided to break it for spares and took the plunge of stripping it on Monday. 12 hours later everything was off and Claude was destined for the scrappies. This morning we got the shell on a trailer...

@Timmsy pipes we took off at the weekend should be good for this chap.

I can't hear anything. Simple thing to check. Are your wheel bolts actually tight, can cause horrible noises if not.

Sport springs are not good, the dampers are designed for different spring heights so it just runs on the bottom of the dampers. You have to change driveshafts. hubs, wishbones, struts and springs.
