I cant see that being a solution to the sticky throttle as they will be of the same age, mileage etc. therefore have the same issues?

64mm internal diameter from memeory on the PH1 cable body, pcd for fixing holes is 70 something but cant remember the exact figure. I'll measure it if i remember later

@Andyman speak to AT power and if you tell them the application they will sort you out an appropriate bracket

I have found cleaning them makes no difference to the sticky throttle problem. The issue lies with the spring becoming tired and expanding, therefore rubbing on the plastic wheel the throttle cable goes around. If you look a the spring there is always a shiny slightly flat spot where it rubs...

There isn't from having a quick skim read, too much discrepancy in this thread. fuel an spec of cage being the main differences. Regarding the fuel weight you refer to as full fluids, nobody runs there car with a full tank when competing (unless endurance racing). Race weight is more akin to 1/4...

@vroomtshh may be able to give some advice on the ME221 clio pnp ECU. Albeit he used it on an ITB build

good to see your keeping it an adding the extra power rather than getting rid, i will be watching the thread with interest

Love this thread, always enjoy reading the up-dates and thought process behind the modifications made.

When i enquired i was told they were no longer available! Have since been looking for a rebuild kit with no luck. AT power have a suitable item but its £300 before you add a new TPS sensor

I have driven both, on the road and on track. Both are noticeably quicker than the standard clio, the turbo car is noticeably quicker than the ITB'd clio. Would either be more fun on track, No would be my opinion. Although if i was to invest my money into either ITB's or turbo it would be Turbo...

Love this

Tidy cupra, would do me as a daily but your miiiiiiiiiles away

@yeecup do you work in edinburgh's west end?

I don't use the top mounts for camber. They are adjusted to give maximum castor

I can get over 5 degrees camber with camber bolts, although alot of my suspension isn't standard. AST's (with top mounts), RC kit etc

I had a look for those tyres and couldnt find them anywhere. Weren't even listed on the Giti website

It wasn't taken as a dig mate so no worries there. The forum is good for alternative views and opinions hence my post on here. As you say if I was just doing trackdays it would be left as is as it's reliable and mega fun

@KieranM at the moment E. seems the place to be in a clio, potentially would look at D but not convinced the clio is capable of competing in that class

@Rob as I plan to take part in SLS at Knockhill later this year and next an it runs a bhp per tonne class system. To be competitive I have worked out I need to be at roughly 900kg for the class I want to take part in.

Yip already on 15's. I have a trackday tomorrow evening, after that I'm going to make a few changes an see what I can get it down to whilst maintaining all steel panels

As a I've just fit a cup set up. Not sure what if any dash lights it will leave on though

Ready for Monday yet haha

The cage at a guess will be 40kg of added weight. Dash wise i have the full Ph1 dash, all be it completely gutted behind as no heater/stereo etc. I will save 20kg converting to polycarbs (as ill gut the doors and remove the crash bar etc). The final 20kg is where i will struggle, remove...

Aluminium bonnet with the innards out already so not much to save there. I was ideally looking to get to 900kg without Composite panels, i'm sure its possible just looking for ideas from others as to how to achieve it

METoffice says dry on monday :up: .................Anyway just lather it in rain X, drive fast an no need for wipers 😂

Figures not too bad, you up at KH on the 3rd for the CSOC track night?

Loom is pretty bare as is, removed all heater/AC wiring, stereo wiring, rear wiper and heated screen wiring. Heater is removed aswel, i think i will order up polycarbs and FG tailgate. Target has always been 900kg

That's pretty light. I know I've a good saving to make by removing the glass in favour of polycarbonate windows. Can't see how I could get to sub 900 without fibreglass boot an removing the bottom dash

Looking to get an idea an what actual measured weight people have managed to get there track/race cars down too. Had mine weighed today an with a passenger seat, half a tank of fuel, 8point cage, full glass and electric windows it came in at 939kg

This debate will go on for ever as everyone has a personal preference as to whether they want the noise of ITB's or performance of a turbo. Reliability is the same on either turbo or ITB providing they are built and mapped properly. I would break it down as below If you want noise and a little...
