The venga bus is comin and everybodies jumpin its an intercity disco, new york to san fransisco

Also check for play on the track rod ends and check the bushes on the anti roll bar - also check that none of Vicky's "electrical toys" havent got wedged in the steering column ;)

Balljoints at the end of the wishbone - guarantee it

Colorado ?? isnt that a state in the US ;)

Thanks for the suggestions lads - keep em coming. My brain is on overdrive now and im coming up with ideas.

Yes mate - 400hp + / FWD / Golf GT tdi 6 speed box / LSD

Thing is the red top is a vauxhall lump and fits nice and smug in the corsa hole. Ive had to cut my n/s chassis leg out and strengthen the surround just so the n/s shaft will fit. There is a constant wobble as your driving in a straight line.

Im wanting to keep it in the clio if possible - if i dont get anywere i will V-dub the lump. Im open to ideas and suggestions lads

Thats a view of the set up from behind the car

This is a very crude diagram of the way the shafts come out of the gearbox, but its very accurate

You can have it for a few weeks to see if you can do anything - its still got the FKS' but they are fine on jordies car ?? the drive shafts are welded up and come out of the box at stupid angles - i think this is the problem

I had a standard one running about 190hp and it would keep up with my clio V6 up to 145mph easily

A girl doing a track day ...........??

Just want to get the problem sorted and fitting the engine in a car it was designed to go in seems the right way forward. Imagine doing 120mph in a straight line and then someone grabs the steering wheel and yanks it to the left really hard - this is what is happening 2 or 3 times when you...

If there are any susupension / handling specialists out there that want to take the car to see if they can do anything they can ( yoz / fred any contacts ?? )

Ive owned 2 and personally i think there fantastic - the UN1 gearbox is solid and indestructable, the J7R engine is very powerful and can easily & reliably be tuned to 250hp. They drive and handle spot on. In my experience a lot of Renault purists say this was the best car Renault ever built...

just spoke to a guy whose selling a 1997 Ibiza 2.0 GTi...........this could be the one

Its that bad that when i hit the finishing line at just over 120 im gritting my teeth and preparing to crash - its that bad .... thankfully i havent yet and dont plan on it either :(

Cheers lads - still gonna run it till end of summer so dont give up on me :D

I would prefer to keep it in the clio to be honest - not a big v-dub fan !!

true mate

Thinking Mk1 Golf / MK2 Golf sleeper

Jordies car is arrow straight as the TT lump is designed around the old 1.8 GTi engine so it fits like a glove. Its so much more controllable and driveable than mine although not as fast ( unless he uses nitrous ) but im fitting a 100 hp NOS kit which will take it over 500hp so i want it to be...

like i said Clartyboy - bad traction and to much power. Its done a 4.0 sec to 60mph at the pod just to let you know

Ive decided to pull the lump out of the TT and stick it into a v-dub / seat. The car has become dangerous due to the stupid power its pushing out and the way the drive train is set up. Ive had a few near control losses at high speed and im worried im gonna write it off with me inside it...

The track was piss poor and i couldnt get off the line due to mass wheel spin - i beat both cars to the finish, EVO and the pulsar. You cant drag race on a surface like that

Manufacturers spend millions developing engines and ancileries to give the cars optimum performance, so why go and spend £60 on some tossy old w**k filter just coz its advertised in max power. In my experience 90 percent of performance off the shelf filters dont work. Even burt runs a...

Not worth buying unless your engine is heavily modded - the higher the power the bigger the regulator required + you will also need bigger injectors. You cant just fit one and make it go faster if ya catch my drift

Dont know about Craners flat but ive heard youve been up Yoz2a's Ring a few times
