You will want axle stands. No way would I want to work under a car held up by a scissors jack. Other than that, easy peasy. 2 bolts and that's it.

Oh don't worry, I am under no impression that I am a good track driver :D I will sort out some tuition for my next track day.

I though I recognised this thread :p Cheers harv. The smaller wheel has smoothed out my movements, so I will now focus on combining the power and unwinding the lock to improve exits. If I ever get my car back on the road, that is :(

£0. They would need to be cheap enough for me to not want to just spend the money on a track day instead.

Hmm. I'm thinking about stripping the interior, but it seems rather pointless removing the back seats to just leave the massive heavy fronts in. I don't have the money or desire to go buckets and harnesses.

I assume not then :p

Does such a thing exist for Mk2 Clios?

Ha! MDF might be a bit too big and heavy, but just something rigid fixed in might work. Or.... I just leave the back seats in :D

Yeah I know people will still get in if they want, but its about stopping them wanting too. If someone is out to steal then they will go for the car where they can see a bunch of tools, car parts and a jack in the boot.

If your concerned about people hitting your car when parked then don't you want a security camera on your house watching it instead? An in car one is only going to catch anyone hitting the front of your car.

Its on the front though, so any plod spotting it are going to be going in the other direction ;)

If only I had a round tool kit :) The security concern is the only thing holding me back at the moment.

I'm seriously considering loosing the back seats in my 172 which is used almost exclusively on track. The only thing stopping me is keeping the boot secure. The back seats combined with the parcel shelf mean you cannot see whats in my boot, which is handy as I keep a lot of tools and things in...

Parked up down Staple Gardens while texting. Right outside my office. Looks tidy.

Don't they already have the Trophy brand for this? Or the Cup for that matter.

Which one is which in a Clio?

Sorry Johnny, completely forgot about this thread :) I never really had a benchmark to go from so don't know what they are performing like, but I can't imagine they make things any worse, lol. The deflector plates are shoddy though, anyone got any ideas on what else I could use? Or should...

The fluids not old but its done enough track days to be screwed so it might have a different colour. The syringe idea is a good one, cheers. I've got plenty of time to sort it (all winter) so I think I might just give it a try with the Super Blue I have and if I struggle ill get something...

What's a good fluid for track days? I got some more Super Blue to replace what I already have, but have realised its going to be a pain to change blue fluid with blue fluid as I won't know when its cone through. What other suggestions are there for affordable track day fluid?

I went for springs and stock shocks and put the saved money towards track days

Its not. It never has been, and it still isn't under the new MOT rules either.

I think their rubber feet. The smaller ones are used for laptops and things. The larger ones would likely go on PC cases and stuff. The sticky back seems fairly strong.

I'd prefer the cup blanks too, but they aren't 99p ;) For a quid they are great. I'm also fairly sure that just having the holes in the bumper would fail an MOT as it would fall into the category of defective washers. The blanks make it look more like they shouldn't be there. And while they...

Here you go

Ill grab a picture in a sec.

Got fed up trying to get my carbon blanks to fit, so instead bought a set of these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/230671053606?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 They work like a charm. They are only slightly larger that the hole in the bumper so dont stand out to much, and they...

Moved it for the first time in a couple of weeks to find that some pikey has ripped off my rear wiper :(

Brilliant! Thanks.

Cheers. Any ideas on what to use to stop moisture buildup inside the car?

With tax due and no need for it until my next track day which isn't going to be until next year I'm going to SORN the Clio and suspend the insurance. What's the best way to store it? Where it's going to be parked is on a slight slope so I'm going to chock the wheels and leave it in gear. Should...
