I guess that makes me a loser then, I'm busy removing the f**ked polybushes and going back to standard as the design premise behind them is awful and they never work properly for long.

Toyo R1-r? http://www.camskill.co.uk/m12b1522s662p0/Track_Day_Tyres_-_Trackday_Tyres_-_Motorsport_Tyres_-_15_inch_Toyo_Tyres_Trackday_Track_Day_Toyo_R1R_Proxes_Toyo_R1_R_-_R15_inch_-_195_50_15_195_50R15

I want to keep the standard boot latch, if I was to cut it out I'd want to go for pins. Likewise the front doors, I could cut chunks out of them, but unless you go poly windows you need something to mount the door handle and window regulator to. I know there are LOADS of places I could lose...

Yep, previous owner(s) thankfully did that before I bought it.

I had an N plater in green, awesome car. The only things I didnt like were FWD in a heavy saloon with lots of torque and 23mpg. It was invisible to police, I swear.

incorrect wheel drive. I always fancied the T5 into an old whiteblock 960 estate

That's properly random!

Where did you get the junction box mate? Looks a nice tidy solution!

get it bought, VERY cool old cars

Hmm, I'm off back through your thread to see what I have that you dont! Plastic windows EPAS Composite shelled buckets Smaller battery Every little helps!

Thats properly light, mines 1005, stripped but with a full cage and a half tank. Front half of the cage and half a tank of fuel cant be 70kg!

is that 931kg total? Thats light! No cage I assume? And no fuel either? :P

Subscribed! Car looks nice mate!

Interesting!

I assume this just uses the same data as google maps on your phone to do the same thing?

I wound up with the car sat on its balljoints on two trolley jacks with the scissor jack out of my daily to push the arb up into place. Slotted in perfectly with everything at ride height. Another spectacularly stupid piece of French design.

You only see the benefit of the 360bhp you currently have about once a week, but it didnt stop you spending about 10k more than the equivalent diesel, or 2.0tfsi A3.....

Drives a ridiculous performance petrol car on the motorway because he 'wants to', tries to justify the cost of a remap based on fuel savings. 😂😂

What was your long term average on the 335D?

Yeah I have, but I've tried jacking the balljoints up

I've had my wishbones off the car and have now refitted them, but I'm really struggling to get the arb ends back into place so I can fit the clamps. To the best of my knowledge its all standard 172 spec, barring purple polybushes. Anyone got a method which works? Cheers

I know the ID is 12mm, but would like to know the crush tube length and the OD please if anyone has one of the shelf? Thanks

33mpg is bloody impressive for what it is!

I tow the clio on a 300kg single axle trailer behind a VW bora. Not the most accomplished tow car, but gets the job done with no drama. I'd happily tow with any of the VAG PD engined stuff tbh. An old A4 estate would be ideal.

Like decats and 'performance' airfilters, not really if it's switched off, the difference is tiny. For me its only the fact it's already done and if it wasnt, the possible risk of spitting belts that would make me remove it tbh.

Haha if it hadn't been removed already I'd still have it on the track car, let alone a daily 😂

Inspired by @VIICarCare posting this: http://www.cliosport.net/threads/enhancement-detail-offer.789126/ If the price was right, I'd be tempted to get both of our cars done, just a proper clean and protection, nothing mental. Sadly Berkshire is a little far away! I'm aware of the big places...

So no aircon?

Shotgun the interior when you tear it out and chuck it in the skip

I'd happily pay for one of those plugs just to be rid of the stupid square drive! Will order one when I next get oil from Opie, cheers for the heads up.
