Brilliant evening none the less. Can't wait to get them both out next month so we best get mending yours and finishing mine.
You mum is quite an avid photographer!
@sonny172cup good to meet you yesterday mate.
I think this is a case of trying the cheapest things first. If the engine/box can be moved over a bit then that's the first trick. Second would be to try a shorter driveshaft as the shaft. Really Mart needs to look at the angle of the shaft to establish what's happening under compression and...
Update time.
Claude made it, through seven countries, up mountain passes, round the nurburgring, 110 on the autobahn and 2400 miles........relatively unscathed although it was a serious hammering and has certainly bought out it's defects.
I'll put up a holiday thread in General Chat but to cut...
Well I barely got anything done to the car this weekend because of a few hiccups with parts. The little spacers for the harness mounts are marginally to large but not deep enough to fit in the harness fittings. I'll sort that out with mr drill soon.
I did manage to get the battery relocated...
Mr rep here.
My advice, get a body kit in the colour of your car. It will save you time, money and hassle with paint issues.
182 exhaust will look silly unless the car is the same registration year as a 182. It's also a lot of money to spent on an exhaust for just a "look"
The plug for the...
Evening guys
I'm in the process of relocating my battery and want to know if I can bin this from the original positive terminal as I'm going to be running a mega fuse next to the battery. I understand it's just a megafuse.
Merci
Very quick update.
Car is pretty much ready to go on track now but I've lost all my free time now so will have to do the last bits in the evenings.
Before I went away I got some omp subframe a fitted. And the exhaust is all on the car now.
Just a quick list of the bits left to do though...
@sburrell93 It's a good thing I think as they usually go back together...although they have been known not to!
Today I managed to get a little bit more work done on the car as now we've finished Martin's I'm stoked to get on track. It's really nice to know I don't really have much to do any...
Graham has gross clothes.
Will have to sort that PMS. I'm sure it's a case of just tinkering around with with it for hours until it's right. Nothing a 13mm and an allen key can't solve.
Battle scars! absolutely love it. Looked like you were having a good time on the track, zoom zoom. RC5+ are really good aren't they :) Never really fade.
I should have explained better! the CHRA they supply is chinese but the rebuild turbos they do are a different CHRA which is why I got the whole unit. You can actually buy the decent CHRA from them separately although they don't list it on ebay. Odd I know but I triple checked before I bought...
Well when I do work on it I try to go absolutely crazy getting everything done at once! Having played with clios a lot recently I seem to be able to rip them apart way too quick :D That D/S is the o/s one. They both have a tripod but that one has the cup external to the gearbox although mine is...
No idea yet chaps! I've only got the manifold on and it's crazy loud. I've seen the youtube videos too which don't sound brilliant but I'll get a video when the rest of the exhaust and gaskets turn up.
Cheers Dan, slowly getting there.
It's been a while but because of uni exams blah blah I hadn't done anything to the car for a couple of months....until yesterday.
Order of the day was to remove the PAS, exhaust and swap over the 182 manifold. It was all really easy to do although the grime/mud on the car was absolutely vile so...
