Yeah to put it in perspective Dan, my RA may have 320bhp but the torque is also 320ftlb, and I'm sure it's fair to say your Clio weighs a good deal less! I'll see you out on track! [emoji6] Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

It's a fair old trek up the hill to get there, but well worth it! Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

I was there on Friday, and it was indeed very busy! I spent most of the day up at the rally stage, which fortunately didn't get too crowded. Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

Great result mate. Even if it's not the figure you were after! Most importantly it's at a safe level, and there's no mechanical issues. you have plenty of scope to increase it once the intercooler has been rectified. Like you said the best thing to do now is enjoy it as it is, get used to a...

New tyres in preparation for CSF17! [emoji6] Not long now, and I'm really looking forward to it. The last two years I've been were awesome! Hoping this week to install a RCM oil catch tank. Looks like a fairly comprehensive kit and includes a braided line to return oil back to the sump using...

I saw this on the Clean & Shiny page on facebook. I buy all my detailing bits from them. Great guys! Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

I've said it once, and I'll say it again. 'That makes my willy fizz!' Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

A supercharged Clio is a wonderful thing. Anyone that witnessed my Trophy at CSF last year would surely agree! RIP Trophy... [emoji30] Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

What about an E39 5-Series didn't they do a 540i? Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

I'm a little byast here, but bombing it around in the 1995 Impreza is a lot of fun! Shame it's left hand drive... Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

Jaguar S-Type R = 4.2 Supercharged V8 [emoji1] Shame they only come as an auto... [emoji30] Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

Can't wait for Metro! A really great series. Don't get me wrong Forza 7 also looks incredible, but sometimes I just feel they're games are just technical showpieces. Forza 6 bored me to tears with it's clinical approach as did the previous titles. I really fancy an Xbox X, but I don't...

Awesome work Dan! The interior colour choice is spot on! Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

The Clio might get tarred with the 'it's French' b****cks but to be fair considering the amount of abuse most of us give them especially on track. They're bloody bomb proof. (within reason of course) It will be very interesting to see how the Scoob fairs at Blyton especially against the...

Cheers Dave! As I was saying to Kris I have decided I really should try and enjoy this RA after all the effort, time, and money has been put into it. Even with all the problems I've had I really do love the car, it's just a pain in the bloody arse! Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

Further investigation/stripdown concludes it might not be the turbo after all! Impeller has no play, and appears to be dry. However both the intake pipe and intercooler pipework are very wet with oil. Could suggest a breather issue. From what I've been told on the RA forum if your running more...

The RA will be there! (hopefully) I've got the whole day on track Saturday, and anyone is welcome to jump in as a passenger. Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

Micro Machines 'World Series' comes out next week I think bud! Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

Cheers Scott, I may well take you up on that. I'd rather get my TD05 rebuilt rather than take a chance on all the cheap Chinese turbos out there! I doubt I will get much done this month as I fly out to Cuba next Thursday for my 30th so will probably have to wait until July. With CSF looming I...

The RA is no longer for sale! I'm going to keep the stubborn mistress... The old girl put her foot down again, and I'm pretty sure the turbo has just let go! A plume of white smoke under acceleration, and then when off the throttle the same out through what I presume is the intake. Further...

Really enjoying this game. codemasters have done it again IMO! I can't wait for Micro Machines to come out also! [emoji2] Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

Looking forward to having a go on this when I'm home! Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

I do love an E39 M5. Those wheels are awful though! The standard wheels are lovely, why change them for those is beyond me... Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

As much as I like a 'Z' I don't think I'd be able to drive around in one looking like that! I agree though it does look smart for what it is. Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk

It's funny you mention that mate! 😂 https://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/nissan/350z/nissan-350z--tokyo-drift/4430545 Next time we'll race for 'pinks!' I'll see you at race wars... :wink:

Thanks Mark, Kris did some cracking shots. I have always liked them ever since they came out. That's about it really! A cracking engine with plenty of potential for tuning. Doesn't need to be mate. Everyone knows a Clio is the fastest car on earth! :wink: However a supercharged Z would be...

I'm undecided at the moment mate, but I'm really keen to test drive a 350Z and see what they're like!

Thanks Ross, I'm glad you've enjoyed the read, keep an eye out for my next purchase as I'm sure that project will be full of the same! 😂 I haven't had any interest yet. It's a fairly niche car so I expected that, but as you said hopefully the right person will be along soon!

Thanks mate, that's one of my favourite's also. Sent from my HTC 10 using Tapatalk
