Phew. Better.

1/2 inch brush, tin of black smoothrite, 10 minutes per wheel, done.

I think it's normal for the pads to rub/drag slightly - my wheels spin freely but I always get a rhythymic squeak...squeal...squeak...squeal... when crawling in traffic from the noisy track pads - you never notice it normally as road pads are meant to be silent. Did you give yours a decent few...

I'm impressed by the sheer amount of thought and effort that's gone into making the rear lights look like a seamless integral part of the design. W***er.

When I used to run an Origin b2 my speedo was 3 mph optimistic at 30 mph, and 3 mph optimistic at 110 mph. Never verified higher than that so I probably hit a genuine 120-121 in 4th.

I'd declare it...it made no difference to me, but then my insurers are very track mod friendly.

Yep that's it...and it's not been down a 1/4 mile...yet.

After 5 years I'd say you've got little or no chance of getting Renault to give a f***.

Did you watch the video?

Aren't they unstable at speed without the rear wing? I'm sure I've seen a clip of one spinning out when slowing from a top speed run on an empty runway...and he'd removed the spoiler for the run? Go easy.

I LOL. Watch this space.

Not a chance! Did you start the clock when the needle starts moving? I'm already doing 10mph at that point. Buy another one. I've been keeping my eye out for a mint low-miler...if one comes up I might get it and stick it in storage until I wear this one out.

What's said about them loosening up with miles is all true :approve: That and the diet have given me somewhere between 14 and 15 seconds I think? ZH2tvcUc594

It's standard and it's a "Don't hurt me!" light.

R-Sport ECU - off the shelf but gives you an extra 500rpm to play with so it's limited at 7,750. Yup, got the airbag light too but that's it...no emissions light after 95k miles on a decat! I think there's something wrong with it tbh...I mean...look at this (the video confirms this...

LOL at going under a car just supported on a trolley jack :quiet: Common sense is a wonderful thing.

The lack of torque from 7-8k rpm in 4th is noticeable...it hits a brick wall. Ran out of runway for 5th, shame. odTwrUXNlsM

No way an insurance company would honour your request to have it fully written off if repair was an option. It would cost them more money, and your insurance history would also show a total loss claim - not good for either of you.

Buy it, use it until it breaks, throw it away, buy another one. Can't go wrong at that price. I started with a £7.99 job from Makro...got two years out of that one. Now using a Halfrauds 2-tonner my old man left me when he emmigrated, can't see it every failing tbh.

I spent £20 on an eBay special, spent a while looking through listings to get one as 'flat' as possible. Job done.
