Seats :) We're in the Interior section lol Engine ones are completely different where they mount too if anyone finds this looking for that also...

From owning both I think they are quite a bit different dimensions wise, moreso the drop from the exhaust tunnel...

Is it smoking at all under load when driving?

Nah unless there was pretty much no oil in the car at all, or if your engine/oil pump was failing. See what its like on the dipstick, if its OK then its a pretty sure bet its the oil level sensor playing up..

The actual Oil Can light is to indicate low oil pressure not the level

Look under the side of the car you will see a big thick box section running down the car on either side, about 1ft in from the sill. Thats the proper chassis rail, use that

Have you checked the oil level on the dipstick? Seen quite a few of those sensors (that show the level on the dash) go faulty

Re: 1.2 Track car Conversion Its only been a week, although there is a lot more done than hes wrote up. Im sure he'l carry on writing later!

lol, Ford Fail is the only OK one, but gets boring after half a day of cars with bottom ends going.

Re: Project 172 Trophy Red Megane 225 Powered Heavy Track Car Did they snap on removal then, or with the engine running?

Re: Project 172 Trophy Red Megane 225 Powered Heavy Track Car How the f*ck did you manage to snap every flywheel bolt? lol!

Certainly does seem flow well enough, that hole is in one of the oilways... The temp was always 'normal' for a standard engine. Even out on track for 50 mins without coming in and it was the same temp as when I first went out... If it wasnt not flowing, the pressure gauge I had wouldn't have...

Il PM you this evening when ive had a look. More than likely got one, il test it on the bench if I do

I used a valver starter on my F7R when I put it in, so yeah. GSF, Euro car parts, local factors if you want new, or williamsclio / clio16valver if you want second hand. I might have one somewhere, depends how much of a rush you are in... Can check later this evening if required.

Your solenoid may well click, but thats the thing that passes 12v to the motor itself, so it has to be fully contacting inside (which its probably not doing). Id say new starter and all will be well, since you can bump it and it runs fine...

I tee'd it off the oil pressure output on the front of the block

By the time you have bought the Brembo's, paid for bearings (as the last time I bought them they didnt come with any) to go in them and paid to have the bearings pressed in it will more than likely be more than the price of £90 (or less) standard Renault rears.

He cant do it any time....

F*ck FCS - its been getting worse every year, Mallory is the same weekend this time round. Know which one we'l be going to!

...think he's realised there are plenty of cars with better build quality than a Renault for a lot less monies ;)

I got the asking price, £995 :) So I've bought a B5 Passat TDi Sport Estate! Towing should be a bit better with that...

Well its sold :)

If you saw the car you would realise why I wasnt bothered about the paint when I was grinding for him ;)

Re: No Compromise ph1 ITB build (Fastcar, BTM, TDF, RS Fab) - ITB update p77 ahem - drawings ftw ;)

They squeel/screech quite a bit

We'l see, lol. Mk1 is off the road for good now (has been since end of October)... will just be getting trailered to track days, then most probably getting rid towards the end of 2011.

Ive got my eye on a few different cars, will see what I decide once the BMW is sold. Its going well on eBay, 29 bids with still 3+ days to go - will see what it goes for. Will probably sway my decision as to what I buy/what money ive got to play with!

Yeah thats not bad, I can get them done for £15. Would usually do it myself but I broke the mill!

Well I'm going VAG next... il miss the dash, lol.
