What current is that part of the switch rated to?

Easiest way is to patch into one of the wires coming off the ignition barrel. Which one depends on your cut off switch. What type is it?

Re: 'Cub's Trackday Flamer - Cage etc' lol at your white hoses. Good progress though. I actually worked on mine this evening.

422 and 423 just need springs, but due to the lift+duration you need pistons with cut outs. 420,421 and 428 use std parts. 551,2,3 need springs plus solid lifters (or at something extra anyway). I thought it was interesting that the 197 profiles are different even with out VVT...

This tables lists the cams and the additional bits required e.g. springs, solid lifters... http://www.catcams.co.uk/acatalog/Renault_clio_rs.html

15" tyres on a 172 ph1 are cheaper.

Also the ph1 box has a longer final drive than the ph2/172 cup one but will fit.

So who did the work or have I missed it?

Not unless you fit a sensor to measure it.

You can remove it.

Here is the info http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20130102233509/http://www.dft.gov.uk/vosa/repository/MoT%20Issue%2031%20-%20Apr%202006.pdf Clearly says no bar should be fitted.

When I took my 172 cup for its first MoT when it was 3 years old, Renault were just as useless. Firstly they said it needed new calipers. Then a new compensator as the bar was missing. In the end when they'd had another in with the same issue. They realised that was how they were supposed to...

This 100%

When I stripped mine there was no extra bits of loom up in that area.

Get some wd40 on the subframe bolts and use an impact wrench if you can get hold of one.

Re: JC5-140 Ratios I have some info. Drop me a PM with your e-mail address.

Although I did recently receive some wiring diagrams off another member and I've just had a quick look through it and the info is in there. Drop me a PM with your e-mail address if you are interested.

No...

You should have got them to measure the geo including caster, camber and track.

Assuming the mk1 has a lighter shell I'd say it probably has more potential. You may struggle for spares/upgrades though I don't know how much is available. I've often thought a mk1 would have been a better starting place.

I am the exact opposite of you lol. Cadwell and Snetterton are a PITA for me. Rockingham, I won't be ready. Donnington busy and Oulton busy but may be able to wangle it. Autumn Trophy, possibly. I'm going to do some CSCC races too as the dates/locations just happen to be better for me. I'll...

Looks good Pete. Have you planned which races you're doing next year?

Re: 'Cub's Trackday Flamer - Cage etc' I'm going to try lol. If I can make it look OK it will be a far cheaper way of keeping the racing car looking vaguely respectable. Thanks for the offer, you may regret it. I've done a few bits so far and the mistake I keep making is cutting the bits too...

Toastfrenzy has the std inlet with forged internals making over 210bhp. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?607142-Toastfrenzy-s-Tin-Top-some-say

I think so but I'm not sure. I'll check later. You could also go down the electric PAS route. That seems popular at the moment.

The golf rad I have won't clear the std PAS pipe at the pump.

Re: 'Cub's Trackday Flamer - Cage etc' Bodies a ktec, ecu is omex - second hand off another clio. Going for matt black... Thanks for the offer Mick. I bought it second hand and it came with a loom so hopefully it won't need much work...

Re: 'Cub's Trackday Flamer - Cage etc' Bodies, ditch std electrics, wrap plus various other minor bits. When I built it originally I did the minimum needed to comply with the MSA safety regs for racing. Now I'm making it a bit more race focused.

Re: 'Cub's Trackday Flamer - Cage etc' Looks good Ollie. I actually managed to tidy my garage to the point where the car now no longer stops me opening my tool box lol. Hoping to make some progress now...

You need to contact your local engine builder/machine shop/engineer.
