balancing done from the factory. Sometimes they have to machine some away. Quite normal

my locking nut removers cut through the collar when you hammer them on

isn't Bucks Renault the dealer that told Dave. that you dont need the cam timing tools "if you know what you're doing" ?

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon Vagina Boob obsessi yup, thanks to the road past Bedford autodrome :(

Jesus! Don't make him admit to that. The universe will implode!

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon Vagina Boob obsessi dont know if this image will work.....

let me look in my crystal ball ;) there is no way i could see whats wrong without seeing the car, but something isn't sitting right

sounds like the exhaust is jammed solid against the body or subframe

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon Vagina Boob obsessi Did a comparison with and without the airbox on Ronees mk1 (the first AT ITB'd car to run it) and it made 1bhp difference with it on of off

or drill a very small hole in the throttle plate ;)

come and put it on the ramp. I'll tell you if the shaft is shot in minutes

bring me a crunchie. I'm quite determined to get that gearbox mount off

I do all of that except for removing the wheels and cleaning the brakes (thats not a standard thing) as part of a 12k service

wish i'd been free earlier today, had family visiting. You need some noisy Mk1 action in your lives ;)

it's basically a desire with a bigger screen and a few details changes. Bit too large for me personally, but it's top of the heap at the moment IMO

Android. So completely customisable (is that a word? lol) windows mobile 6.5 wasn't good at all, not nice to use, 7 is better, but it's still.....well, windows.

I would ITB the hell out of it

new headbolts are definitely a good idea

so a flexi joint then......

I want that mk1 106. A lot

I've used non renault without issue. Pretty sure every brand i've used has been from the same manufacturer that renault used though, as they were identical

having to rely on tightening the bolts down to get it flat increses the risk of cracking. I've had to fit a number of powder coated rocker covers on other engines (most notably F7R's) and they can be a b**ch to seal due to twisting

powder coating the rocker cover should be approached with care. Due to it's being a precision machined part you may be compromising bearing clearances, and machined flat surfaces by exposing the metal to the kind of heat involved in powder coating. Flat metal parts such as this can twist easily...

I built this [/IMG] which made this

block one of the tailpipes with a wet cloth. Perfectly legitimate, as you're just allowing the sensor to see un disturbed gases. Large tailpipes allow air to be sucked in from outside which gives a false reading

Re: Dave.'s Trumpeted Engine Spec, Cammed Up Gunit, 2118'd Carbon Vagina Boob obsessi mine doesn't do that, and my cams are a LOT wilder....and it's not mapped. Infact, I've never seen that with cams and ITBs :S

there you go then.

no thats not normal

is there a flexi joint in the exhaust?

hasn't spat a sparkplug out has it?
