We have some awesome techies, but another common-theme is: “Mike, when can you look at my missus Tucson?” Mike: “Who’s bringing it in?” Me! Mike: “Take it to Halfords”. Now I’m never sure if it’s because my missus is younger and better looking than me - sorry no pics - or that I’m a...

The garage is only as good as the person doing the work. It's a common-theme: the original owner gets a good rep, brings in more help, and next thing you know, you've got a monkey wrench in the works. Healthy order book means they never get around to sorting it until it’s too late. Seen that too...

Just looked at the pictures and thought that’s Daniel’s car, why has Bluebeard got his car 😂

.

He can’t afford me to sell it, in case I forget all the part numbers 😂

The RB is staying. I’m giving her some new parts in the spring and a refresh.

I took a trip over to Croft in Little Bluey after dropping out of my track day due to injuring my back. I'm on the mend, but I was quite peeved as it was my last one for this year. It was a bit of short notice, and unfortunately, I couldn't find anyone to take my place, which is a shame...

I’m surprised how any of these cars fetch this type of money without pictures of the underneath. There’s a Green 205 1.9 GTi parked next to mine at the storage unit. It's a standard car but it's in a sorry state of decay. It's been sitting there for 20 years, and despite my efforts, the owner...

I’ve sorted 👍

Psst….

My old PH1 engine.

Ah, just reread your original post. They supplied the hubs and you pressed them in. Gotcha! No sympathy for you then 😂 Probably pushed in too far then. Does the hub snag on anything?

He’s the engineer and will have done your bearings. It’s a 2-man team. Fred a.k.a Frog and James a.k.a Jam.

Hmmm never known them to be that tight, but I’ve only ever had two sets done. I would imagine they’d be fine and soon settle in, but I’m sure others can chime in. What did Fred say?

They won’t spin freely, more like a solid turn. Shouldn’t be difficult though.

Not as bad as some that I've seen so you might just get lucky. Get some Bilt Hamber products like Surfex-HD, DEOX Gel, Hydrate-80 and some Dynanx S50 wax or similar if you haven't already - https://bilthamber.com/product-category/anti-corrosion/ Attack the rust with a wire brush, removing as...

A spray can because trackcar. Mine is lovely at 30 yards.

Sounds like you've pulled mate!

Pilot Sport 3 is a great all-rounder.

That's the chap.

You don't need a Clio specialist for this job - just a reliable exhaust centre. My local exhaust centre welded a new flange in place while the car was on the lift. It was a straightforward job. If you're up for fitting the exhaust yourself, it's not too hard. I followed a guide on the PMS...

One last thing...if you do opt for the PMS System, get this gasket kit as it's the only one worth buying and seals it perfectly - https://k-tecracing.com/products/aftermarket-clio-2rs-manifold-to-cat-fitting-kit You might have to wait 100 years for it to arrive though lol

Depending on how bad it is, you may be able to get a new flange welded onto the manifold - see picture. I got mine from a member on here but the name escapes me now, but stick a wanted post up - use my picture by all means :) I got my local exhaust centre to weld it on. If not, you should...

The car looks really good.

I know what you mean. I did a half lap of shame when my bonnet went through my screen. Well, you can at least sleep knowing you’d pulled a decent gap on him.

Span there myself a few years back in the wet, cold tyres coming straight out of the paddock. I went the other way onto the grass and miraculously managed to keep it out of the barrier. Hope it's a simple fix.
