    That's how I ended up on the sex offenders register.

    People trying to prove their car is faster than yours?

    No, this is a cup and every other Ph2 Clio tbh.

    People trying to prove their car is faster than yours?

    That 4+ advert makes me angry, i'd have told the women to f*ck right off in regards to a van with windows, I mean how much space does a tiny baby need anyway? Our car was a Mk1 Fiesta when I was growing up, we still managed to get my bike in as well as all the holiday bags.

    People trying to prove their car is faster than yours?

    It's got nothing to do with having a 200, all blokes that drive people carriers drive like a drunk Loldanardo, I think it's to do with the fact their wife has essentially cut their balls off by making them drive a child taxi, so they permanently belt around trying to reclaim their manhood.

    Amateurs don't use NOS iirc, watch those intake welds or your floor will fall off.

    We've got about as much chance of it raining in October as we had in the middle of summer, this country's weather patterns have been f*cked this year.

    They don't allow intercooler sprays in case any of the water drips on the track, so it it rains that's it day over. Doesn't the glue last from previous events, or does it wear away almost instantly?

    If it rains they close the track so no one will be running, but drag strips spray the surface with some kind of glue to help cars launch, not to mention all the rubber that gets laid down.

    It's almost impossible to do a 3k rpm launch on a normal road, you mine just stands still with the wheels spinning, I guess i'll learn how to do it on the drag strips sticky surface.

    So you've never booted your car from a standing start?
  13. DaveDreads

    Drag Racing @ Shakespeare: Sat 27/10/12

    Oh I understand mate, but to me it's no different to giving it a boot full away from the lights on a duel carriageway. Which I pretty much do everyday. :o

    Gearbox blew up then developed misfire! PLEASE HELP!

    If you've got nothing to drive buy a £300 quid Mondeo with 12 months mot and moth ball the Clio for a bit until you have the parts and money to fix it.

    KTR Engine Mounts and Vibrations

    I've got a one year old powerflex dogbone, new KTR engine mounts and polybushed arb that are less than a month old, and I haven't felt any more vibration in the car at all. I know alot of people say it's unbearable on a daily, but other than the car feeling a bit sturdier, for me it's exactly...

    Gearbox blew up then developed misfire! PLEASE HELP!

    You're selling your car because the gearbox blew up? £200 odd quid will get you a second hand box, £100ish new clutch, then £200ish for the labour, unless you can get someone off here to do it for beer. The gearboxes are a known weak point, we've all had them go wrong at some point, just fix it...

    One job done another one created

    Mine got replaced for free a couple of years ago when they issued a recall, if you keep the Renault database updated with you current address they told me they'd replace it every couple of years.

    clio 172 remap

    RSTuner fastchip map will sort out the lumpy idle, cold starts and smooth out the 5k kick, but on a standard car don't expect a power increase.

    Who are these idiots??

    Am I missing something here? Other than putting Catalytic Converter as an Exterior option, and his inability to use paragraphs, I can't see anything wrong with that ad. Compared to some of the f*cktards advertising a '200bhp ClioSport with a air filter and fat zaust dats got badass power...

    decat question

    So does the lamda screw into it then? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/251150505763#ht_1308wt_1186 Edit : Never mind, I just read it. :o

    Gearbox mount

    Should be ok to drive for a while, just don't go booting it about as it'll probably knacker something with the knocking. Powerflex bogbone bushes are around £40 quid, so not an expensive fix.

    Bugger, that was going to my pikey fix when I decat mine. :dapprove:

    decat question

    I've read on here that you can remove the post cat lamda, bag it up, zip tie it out the way, then block off the hole. Don't know if that's rght or not, it's just what i've read. Iirc it carbon deposits on it that puts the light on.

    Gearbox blew up then developed misfire! PLEASE HELP!

    God knows, that's where my knowledge ends mate, crank sensor maybe. Also it might be worth considering getting powerflex bushes for the dogbone mount, cheap upgrade but well worth it.
