Agreed fully - I had a few hickups at cadwell were it went a bit "funny" on me - but I think that was loose wiring. Since it's all bedded in it's brilliant I drive at 3/4 on the motorway, full when parking and turn it down to just below half on track. Loads better "feel" through the steering...

If you're going with AT bodies and want an ecu that's easy to install, map and remove if you want then Gen90 every day of the week. Regardless of K-Tec's ability to map a car the ECU is cracking. RS Tuning will map it for you so I don't *think* you'd need to buy the software as they already...

Hahahaaaaaaaaa... some pictures? I have a little over 600 that I need to edit LOL So tired after 3 days of non-stop driving though! Hopefully find time to edit them tomorrow/monday and get them up - got some brilliant shots as at one point there was barely a hairs width between James Tony and...

Can't wait to see the videos from this! What a brilliant day, some properly exciting racing! Great seeing you guys again :)

If there's a hot electrical smell - check the wires on the alternator The alternator sits right behind the manifold and is supposed to have a little heat shield. Sometimes the shield falls off and the wires cook, become fragile and start to fall apart. Even with the shield in place it's...

Cheers mate!

Anyone know how much it is to get into Mallory on Saturday and what times the races are? I've tried looking on the website and it's poo lol

Yessss...... but Omex and loom will be £600 and a good map will be £3-400. You also need a decent backing plate to clear the injectors and filter - which is £150ish Which is knocking on the door of £2k.. Yes you can scrimp and save and do things different to everyone else and on a budget - but...

No you couldn't - nowhere near Cheapest set of 2nd hand Jenveys you will find is a grand on it's own. Then a really cheap ecu will be a few hundred on top and you'll need loom and mapping. What's the point in doing it if you don't have the budget and want to bodge everything? Flog the...

Any springs and top mounts would fit - If you've got a bit of budget google pure motorsport - they do solid top mounts and strut braces that work really well

182 cup/trophy hubs - bolt them on - job done

I'd guess so mate yah - I think the trophy and cup packed cars all run the wider track.

Old and young is fine in my eyes - they are contrasting objects. I'm gonna enter one this month - it's not great but I want to get motivated back into things :) Entry

Nope tracking was exactly the same as it is now - it was quite understeery as a standard car

I didn't say just coilovers - they asked how much a change in suspension could alter a car. -3degrees of camber at front, -2.3 at back, and good spec coilovers with strut braces and ARB. All suspension changes ;) No - it was just an example. Everywhere has country roads if you look for...

Think your missing the point. You don't have to drive a car flat out to have a bit of fun on back roads. There are endless unused B roads from Lincoln to the coast - you can whack big brakes on and good suspension and do them all at 60 laughing your ass off. Standard car maybe 40ish. It's...

There's a "test corner" I use 65 in the clio when it was on standard cup setup. Now does 90-95 So in answer... a lot

Westfields really confuse me - they have virtually no comforts for the road - but 90% of them are s**t on track. Sick of pushing them out the way around cadwell lol

I used to refer to my old 106 and clio as fast road cars I didn't use them on track other than a couple of times a year - they still had stereos and comfy reclining recaros. Nothing removed to lose weight but good suspension/brakes etc... perfect for an empty B road hoon. Building a fast...

Good shout - I'll try giving them a ring Clio might look a bit underpowered next to all the evos lol

Anyone know a good company who can corner weight a car around Lincolnshire/Nottinghamshire I need to weigh the track car for working out what trailer to buy - figured I might as well get it properly corner weighted too :)

oooh thanks for the heads up mate - I'll pop into asda and grab a few of these as my old one is a bit dead lol

LOL well yes Swede - probably the do seem to be kangoo ones but I asked ECP and GSF to cross reference the part number and all other manufacturers listed no equivalents so I'm not sure anyone other than first line make them (other than obviously Renault lol)

Just because the subframe lines up with the holes on the shell doesn't mean the wishbone mounting points aren't bent.

Holy s**t only just seen that Caster is the angle from the bottom ball joint to the top mount My money would be on a bottom ball joint that's shot or a top mount that's shot. Check for play in both. If they're both fine then god knows why the front right wheel is sitting too far back in...

If that's correct then the left rear wheel has had quite a whack at some point as it's camber is fecked I'd say easiest thing would be to buy a new rear axle and swap them

Yeah knowing what Nick is working on for the Clio - my credit card is crying lol

Re: sonny172cup "track racer project" Don't know how i've missed this thread - awesome build! I really need to get an oil cooler for mine

Ordering one from Chris in white along with a pair of the cup brake ducts in white too as soon as I get some funds together. Quality looks amazing!

Track rod end - yes. Track rod inner - no First line are the only people who make the longer one needed for a cup.
