After a few trackdays with the R88'R i find them considerably better than the old R888. The aO48'S are for competition use only so no use if you also use the car on the road or the championship/series you compete in requires a road legal tyre.
Dunlops DZ03G are a fantastic tyre (slightly better...
I have never found them that much cheaper than R888'S. Used them once and they are good but noticeably less grip than so i went back to R888 and now R888R as i can get a set fitted and balanced for £350
I will have a look for the invoice when i am home later and send you a pm with a pic of it. Those are 100% the part numbers for the cup shafts that were supplied the previous 2 times i have bought them from J&R
172 Cup shafts are single piece and don't have the support bracket on drivers side. The part numbers I gave earlier are for 172 cup shafts with single piece drivers shaft
Pulled it out the garage for a quick check over before it goes to be corner weighted an re-aligned. Gave the engine bay a quick clean an rolled it back in the garage. Will change after wheel alignment as going epas, deleting hids and a few other bits
Speak to wavetrac, they are in the process of developing a diff for the JC5. As for gripper the issues appear to have been sorted but for reasons similar to bloke i would stick with the likes of quaife
If you go quaiffe through @NorthloopCup it actually works out cheaper than the M-facory. As the price from mark is including quaiffe fitting your crownhweel, the M-Factory you need to add that cost and PMS also recommend fitting the additional retaining plate they list on there site
Agree with the above. Although if you are even half decent with spanners it is considerably cheaper to do it yourself and use the EFI module, you can turbo a clio for under £2000 and have the same end result as the ED kit
The cost of the rotrex is the main issue i would assume, its £1600 and not a serviceable item. If you are handy with spanners you can turbo a clio (with the EFI module) yourself for a few hundred £ more than the cost of just the rotrex
@Christopher do you know the cost of the supercharger kit...
Cheers guys, its a track car but i try and keep it tidy and looking half decent. Exterior is pretty much standard except lower on AST's an a few quick release fittings for the bumper. waiting on the pro 1.2's being delivered from rimstock
@Coops Turbo 100% agree. To a point i still regret it to this day, wish i had kept it super clean an bought a rougher one to track.
I still keep it clean an it doesn't want for anything. Was just too much fun on track
christ this needs an up-date! what started off as resto project quickly became a track project! Its now full stripped, AST's, weld in cage etc
really should up date with current pictures
I nipped over to the garage an measured an it's touch an go whether a 1.9" spring will fit. So from that I assume the standard size spring used on them is 2" or 50.8mm?
He sells the kit on here, there is a thread for it in the group buy section. alternatively pm him to discuss...........I would highly recommend the kit, it is a fantastic improvement to the clio's handling
in essence its simple to set up. hardest parts are compressing the rubber part of the plastic bush that goes into the gearbox and removing the old rusty bolts on the heatsheild
i done mine in just over an hour lying on my back on my drive, an wasn't rushing
cold test will usually give lower figures but they do seem a tad low. That being said they are all pretty much the same, and the car is running great so what is the issue?
Also is it running the standard pistons, HG etc?
The standard shafts they supply are for non cup items. To order Cup shafts you need there specific part numbers (especially if you spek to one of the girls as they just go by what the computer tells them)
The black series bushes are a PITA. longer bolts and swearing, also helps if you trim the bushes down a little as they are slightly too large. Im sure @Tomotek has pictures of it in his project thread
