Assuming the dogbone bolt into the gearbox is secure (check it!), and the dogbone to subframe bolt is tight, then I'd suggest fitting a sport dogbone (stiffer than standard). Other than that, can't think of much.

I should have a working car by then. Will confirm at weekend.

Cliosport always seem to have bad locations at shows. Weekend racer/corsasport, who I'm staff on, fight to get a decent location, inc requesting far more stand passes than drivers (so often inc stand passes for passengers), which really helps. Cliosport certainly doesn't do things as well...

And as a quick add for Post weekend... Drove up to Castle Combe for FCS, did a soaking track session, then drove to Santa Pod for Performance Vauxhall Show, due to me previously being in the vauxhall scene and having loads of mates there. The little DCi is now fucked, Outer N/S CV is completely...

Late update (this is Fridays work)... As I mentioned earlier, fusebox cover turned up... Much better! Then sorted out the radio blank. This is just a template really, make sure it worked, as the finish is f**king terrible (my fault!), I'll get the lock switch up the right way too. Will keep...

Looking fabulous. Loving your attention to detail and all the picture taking. I want a white Clio :(

Was a good evening, even if I was dishing out abuse and general bullshitting. Will try and catch you tomorrow.

Reg isnt R5 DLC (or similar?) is it?

That's what I found via some googling. I've never had an issue with accessing the Bios, expect for on this piece of s**t! Assist button brought me to a selection with safe mode etc, no bios option though. I think F2 did the same. I will experiment when I'm home tonight. Cheers dudes.

So, Randomly (I think) my Vaio Laptop decided its date/time were wrong, security certificates having to be accepted on loads of web pages, drop box not working etc. Time and date that appear in the corner are fine, tried re-syncing via the options, no change. Restarting, windows update...

If I had thought about it, I'd have hit you up. Sorted it now mind!

Rarely tbh!. I come home from work and instantly think what to do tonight. Always stuff to do! Cheers buddy. Yeah we'll have to try and catch up.

Older than me!

Nah I tried it in the slot tonight, smaller one is a perfect fit. Ta buddy.

Too slow old man! Today has some minor progress, spent too long with Dr Blast, TEG & Ricardos. First up, airbag module turned up, so programmed it and now we have no airbag lights! Finished off battery wiring too.. Also fitted fuse etc. ventura do you want me to remove all the sound...

If its not making what its asking for (setting) then it has an issue. A good pump will hit 350/400 on cranking. I assume it cranks just as fast as your clio, as I've had that where a starter motor was weak, so it wasn't spinning the pump fast enough to make the pressure required, it would fire...

What you doing for those? Thinner the better really, because racecar yo!

I was planning to pop in and see my mate, but if you want to, I'll measure it up in the morning. Sort it out for me and you don't have to worry about giving me money for those shims I ordered. Any chance you could pop it round tomorrow evening? Cheeky I know :)

I think one of mine has nothing there holding it lol.

No biggy buddy. It probably was, but it was full of water and I sort of ignored it lol Much appreciated as you know. Its certainly looking a lot better all round really. I too am looking forward to seeing a completely blue-free engine bay, Some way off yet I reckon! Cheers buddy, and I...

What you really need is throttle bodies, and boost!

Friend of mine has Ktec ITB's (inc Gen90) on his Ph1. The sound is brilliant, and the power, when you're on it, is brilliant, but getting to the power is what is hard on public roads. Its all top end on his for sure, very little low down. Turbo certainly has more power, and is probably better...

New brake light from Renault is only circa £18.

Lol, I bet it has more power. Its supposed to be around 150/160bhp! Its kinda quick, Being so bloody heavy slows it down though. Needs a 6speed box however!

I was speaking to my brother about borrowing his Camper T4, I will be in pure luxury then! What power is your T4?

Conrods shrinking is funny. Bending maybe if you force loads down its throat and hyrdo it, but you'd have to pour it in. Where abouts are you? It needs plugging in to be sure its got fuel pressure. Could be crank sensor, Diesels need so little to run on easystart, its hard to diagnose. Also...

You'll still want spacers tbh. Mines running 25mm spacers on top of the wide track conversion.

Alternators do often cause drains, even though they charge no problem. Its because the regulator is trying to back feed the alternator and make it run like a motor. Do the same test with your meter, and disconnect the alternator main feed. You may find once removed, and refitted, the drain...

I used some Velcro discs from ebay. Heavy duty ones. Helpful when cleaning the car, and swapping between 3/4 front plate to standard front plate if ever pulled for it.

I couldn't remember where I saw the engine brake post! Yeah I'm aiming to build it with more power in mind, Inc using the 6speed. I'll leave it standard a few months, and then get BMW injectors and pump, bigger/hybrid turbo etc sorted, might as well do it properly. I hope to get started in a...
