For an answer today, try speaking to engine dynamics as they have a lot of dealings with the F4R. You can change the language via google in the top right corner if your English is not the best. http://www.engine-dynamics.com

Yeah when I first fitted this kit around 2 years ago I tried several wheels and realised I was never going to get a 15" wheel to fit and have a half decent offset so I scrapped the idea and started to run them on my track car which had 16" wheels, your options increase greatly then. I was told...

Gutted to hear Tom, I guess cars with choked drain holes in the sills are going to get this. Only so much a thin coat of galvy can do. It's been a while but I'm pretty sure my race car has some type of wax down there too which I can only see as being from factory?

Very Nice Cub, I ain't been on here in a good while but you have certainly moved this on some, well done. Look forward to your TD video's. Given you have recently bought the brake upgrade and are in the loop as such, I'm guessing nobody has managed to fit the Brembo's under a 15" wheel with no...

The blue book can very hard to define from whats written tbh and I would speak to a couple of scruts of potential race series as it's their personal understanding of the ruling to a certain extent. I consulted the scruts for the SMRC at Knockhill and they were pretty funny about it so I just...

Refreshing to see these boxes aren't as bad as made out to be really. As far as your induction issue Mark, any scrut will just want to see forward facing lights. Either go with spotlights in the lower grill like a lot of the cup racers used when they went endurance racing or fit one of those...

Plans soon good. To a similar spec as my thing... Someone needs to come up with different ideas of weight saving. Won't be long before the composite roofs come about as one try's to gain an advantage from the next. I could be interested in a set of your bells if they're going spare and you have...

Good progress Tom, good track season ahead for you it seem's. Did you knock the bells up yourself? I'm going to have to fit 4 pots to the race car again to keep up with the Jones'........ what wheels and ET's are you saying this set up will fit behind? Cheers

IMO the outright grip from the 888's will be better but the NS2-R will take more sustained punishment without going off. 888's are a good intermediate tyre but there is much better tyres out there now, they're something like a 15 year old design getting on for. Toyo are just away to release...

Sounds like it's gettng too complicated if I'm honest this year. It should just be BHP/ton and fire on. It's decent that you can or could take a car on with nothing other than yellow tape on your battery negative, a hand held fire extinguisher (recommendation) plus your race gear and go out and...

I'm surprised they never picked up on your FG doors tbh. I was told distinctly that I wouldn't be getting to race with them from Ian Afek and Rob Mckinna, past and present SMRC S&S's scrut. You'll have far too much trouble if you're trying to return it to road going from what I understand...

And thats what I didn't want to get into. Just wondered if he had done any like for like testing as I'm always surprised by the results. Im not on about the traffic light GP either.

Not nice to see the Impreza get a spanking :weary:. Hope you're back out in one of them soon.

Yeah I totally agree... The Clio was standard except engine and suspension work, the Civic is standard except all the engine mods. I'm not trying to slate your car but they're desipetively slow in comparison to what they sound and feel like inside them IMO. I was just interested in you had a...

Fair spec sheet. Similar to my mates except the g/box and suspension work. Do you find you're really underwhelmed by the lack of torque/go they seem to have, my old ITB'd Clio with an apparent 195bhp handed its arse to it and his is 240bhp. Dare I say, all noise and no go. Despite above I can...

Standard response you will get on here. 1. Not worth it, buy a Cliosport. 2. Its a ****** you drive, whats the point. And then the one that always grinds my gears, usually the self righteous type who were usually molly coddled by their parents to be a good boy or girl. 3. I hope you're going...

Nice one...Progression is always good. What was the actual settings you finished with, did you do the shims? They're ace little controllable cars, I just wish you could adjust the rear geometry quicker for wet/dry without removing hub nuts all the time.

I think you'll probably find that your car feels awesome (safe) in the wet because it is..... It's essentially trying to keep itself straight all the time so when it becomes dry the rear doesn't want to rotate around the front. By doing that the front is doing all the work and will always 'push'...

The seats look like they have done 3x that mileage??

I can't even be arsed replying to every post or even reading them tbh. I seen the way the thread was going with the CS massive jumping on the band wagon and saying you can only buy this sort tyre as its instant death otherwise. Its a CLIO sport FFS, some of you need to open your eyes. For a...

It does depend on what their use is yes, but to put £400 tyres on a Clio for road use to me is stupid tbh. Whats that, a 1/4 to a 6th of most Clios net worth? I'm not shy of spending silly money on car modifications as you'll see from my project threads but for a road Clio it just doesn't...

Clutch time, defo. I have Coopers on my Jeep, multi award winning tyre i'll have you know... don't just assume because you're not in the know. I don't see peoples fascination putting on Ps3's, conti 3,4,5 etc. Its all relative to the cars worth imo and for road use on a couple of grand "clio"...

Yeah I wasn't suggesting 40nm for the SP's It was more in your tools interest as if you have the option you'll use it at one time . Not really sure on 1/2, my tengtools 3/8 starts at 20nm and goes to 190nm or there abouts iirc and that has done me on the Clio engine's. That's the things with...

I would strongly suggest again this, the depth of thread on the cylinder will almost always in most cars pull the thread out with the plug given the metal dissimilarity.

I'd be wary of putting 40nm through a 1/4 drive socket depending on the thread size.... the spark plug is large thread and I wouldn't chance it. You'll be able to feel it go tight and then the crush washer will 'squish' a little which again you will feel. If you have a new plug then throw...

G Good to know. I ordered a set a few weeks back but made the oversite and ordered the kids sizes so had to send them back, they were painted on haha. Are they fairly big as far as sizes go?

A few.... I'm not gay.... Honest!! For myself I got the TV, card holder and joggers. I managed to get 20% off everything except the TV thanks to @DB. Cheers for that code. SONY LED TV...

Cheers, will there be plenty of opportunity to get good deals on the race gear (clothing) or is it true that the deals are to be had late on Sunday? I'm guessing if thats true it will be mainly drips and drabs, being 6'2" its probably not worth the risk.

Nice one, that means cheaper flights too. I'm sure I remember a similar comment from you last year too about Thursday/Friday. What does the engineering part entail... Sectioned products showing you the workings and more tech based advisors?

Instead of starting another thread I thought I would continue on this one........ Me and a mate plan to go down to the 2015 show... mainly to try on and buy race gear. I have searched the tinternet and found limited info on what days are best. I would like to see the live show, BTCC chat and...
