    Suspension gurus what do you think of these readings?

    Yes. Did you have the car jacked up, hands on outer edge of wheel and try to wobble it in and out?

    Hankooks

    +1 for s1 evo's in that size, good road tyre. Reasonable track tyre in wet but can't go a near a dry track without them melting.

    Basic spec Renaultsport Clio Race Series

    Easily, not many clio's going about in good race ready mecahnical condition these days. Depends what condition of car you are willing to go racing in I guess though.

    Basic spec Renaultsport Clio Race Series

    I'm not saying they wouldn't last a season, I know there good fun having a track car with cup shocks and sportlines. My point is they roll like a boat and £600-£1000 on a half decent setup will indefinetely make the cars better to drive, be quicker and in the grand scheme of a season 1k isn't a...

    Basic spec Renaultsport Clio Race Series

    I haven't read all the posts yet, I like the initial plan but IMO you cant have a race series relying on standard shocks, there just not upto it. Good for a trackday or two but should never be considered to go racing, koni shocks or the likes at the very least. There not exactly expensive in...

    Quickest way to bleed brakes

    There's no quickest easiest way tbh, just the same as any other car. Start at the furthest away caliper from the master cylinder and work towards it.

    Suspension gurus what do you think of these readings?

    Your car looks like its taken a knock to the right rear as it has positive camber and 1/4 of a degree more toe in on the right rear. Does your car sit a good height, slight nose down, shocks in good condition, track rods, rod ends and so on.

    Suspension gurus what do you think of these readings?

    Swap tyres from front to rear making sure there are a matching pair on both axles. Are you sure its not just the camber of the road pulling you to the kerb?

    cheap federal RS-R's in 16in size!

    ^^^this I have had a set of these on my car from my tyres for the last 3 track days, going alright so far. The 'line' is nothing to worry about its just a moulding line, the outer edges do wear quite quickly on track and I run 4 degrees camber on the front, other than that they are one of the...

    New engine running...however odd noise

    Its an easy one to get caught out with tbh, luckily I noticed it before getting too far with the last one I done. FYI they can be pulled out with a set of vice grips. Having them dowels in the engine and gearbox would explain every problem you have listed, good luck :)

    New engine running...however odd noise

    For the wishbone support brackets, I had the same problem with my 52 plate Cup, nothing had been apart in years and if it had there was no copper grease used. Get down to B&Q and get a plumbers blue soldering torch, (good ones) heat the broken bolts (takes a while but if you don't have access...

    minimum disk size for brembo 4 pots?

    Yeah they are all a standard fitted caliper made by brembo, 406 brembos are a bit mehhh and megane225/clio 197 brembos arer a proper radial mounted caliper. 283mm will be fine with with such a small caliper.

    minimum disk size for brembo 4 pots?

    If your talking about 197/225 megane brembos then I wouldn't go much smaller than a 280mm disk, thats what I run and its suited quite well. Different calipers have different acceptable disk sizes though.
