OK will do. And we better move this discussion over to the events forum as well...

So how long will it be before you run into your fellow member in Africa then?

You need more power and a longer box.

An RB5 from one set of lights to the next down the dragstripin Southend, right outside the police station. About 4 sets of lights altogether? Lost half a length on every start, kept up easily once rolling, outbraked him to the lights. That was running nitrous though. But at the time, I did...

Chris at Carnoisseur can get them for you. Plus Evolution as well. The numbers are on the members page.

BTW Brun, getting back to RSC, you and I have no problem with RSC coming along and most people Cliosport members are the same. Do you think there would be any problem from the RSC management though?

Well you know Im always up for anything at York! Whos that moaning about York being miles away?:) I did it 2 or 3 times this year and Im in the furthest corner of Essex - I always have to go up the night before - but its *definitely* worth it. Something like this would be a weekender I would...

Cheers guys - if anyone can get that segment onto video maybe 10 seconds of it onto MPG then I would love to have it. Even better would be the whole bit about 1/4 miling , how long was it, about 5 or 10 minutes? When is 5th Gear repeated?

One thing I would like explained to me though - is there any actual advantage to having to wait until 10,000 rpm on a race engine until you get any power? Why not just have a nice big torquey engine that gives peak power earlier on? Or is it because the further you tune any engine for peak...

Yeah the Willy is longer throw than the 16v; it takes a bit of figuring out if youre not an engine expert (which Im not) but think about it like this. You know when youre a kid and you pick up bits of tree branch off the ground and swish them about pretending youre having a sword fight or...

Maciek - look for an early Megane 2.0 bottom - the 2.0 16v F7R until 1998 or 99 I think? After that it was a different 2.0 engine.

Sorry to say it but thats top whack as well... The problem is there are loads of stacked 19s in the yards as well, plenty of F7P engines around.

LOL Tom was definitely the ladies choice that night. It wasnt Old Spice or Hai Karate - it was Blue Stratos. Or maybe Denim?

Err... go to the garage and tell them that its gone mad since you had the software updated and they better bloody fix it double quick?

Try the old line about it being safer cos you can overtake and get out of trouble quicker.

Yeah the phones been off the hook as Tim Westwood might say. I thought I would have been in the first shot where she walked down the line of cars introducing it as Run WHat You Brung, cos I remember seeing her doing the walk-past as I was sitting there with the engine running. Looks like it...

Yeah Juss why dont you organise something down your way!

BTW panel filters are a piece of cake to fit and will probably work better than an induction kit in a cramped engine bay.

Have you emailed Jas? Sometimes memberships take a bit of time cos the post is collected once a week so it can seem like quite a long time between posting and getting membership back , if you time it wrong!

Phil, once its done Ill be glad to take anyone for a spin. 50p a go. Nick, theres nothing I like more than seeing a Scooby or Cossie getting caned by a 15 year old Renault 5, and only a 1.4 pushrod lump at that. Im no expert on 5s or turbos in general (although Im gonna have to start learning...

LOL I havent got a bloody clue whats going on here! I need an overhead view of the engine bay so I can see what goes where. Labelled if poss! Basically the breather system on an engine is how the oil vapours are vented out from the engine block. This is usually by a pipe coming out from the...

They are easy to mod or tune, the MI-16 is a nice conversion and the thing is that a lot of 205 owners like stealth (good on em) - the job is done properly and youd never know until you get smoked. Things like TB conversions, had work etc reap a lot of power, much more than youd get out of a...
