What, when he's said he's looking for a white or red one?

I do a roll centre kit that works with your standard hubs mate. There's info in the group buy section. It corrects bump steer as well.

It'll be more dependant on the mileage then tbh mate

When you start it up from cold, hold the revs at around 1k to 1.2k and listen for a noise that sounds like a train on the tracks. That'll be the timing chain. Depends on age/mileage that you're looking at of course.

You can get R888R's in 205/45 R16 and it will handle no differently on 16's to 15's. I swapped from 15's up to 16's on my track cup.........never noticed any difference!! Great selection of cars you've got there! Welcome back too!

And is that being used for rallying?

Driveshafts or the output shaft on the diff? If it's the output shaft on the diff, they do one made out of f1 spec material. It's designed to have a certain amount of twist to solve the snapping issue.

It worked mate! Right, so does it only make that noise when the wheels are turning? Or does it do it even with the box in neutral?

Upload it to YouTube mate and then post the link

Not fancy an R27? It'll always have a bit of kudos attached to it come resale time.

No worries mate. Tbh the 197's are at that sort of money nowadays. It's only really well known forum cars that are commanding higher prices.

@imprezaworks check the inner edges of the front tyres for uneven wear. If there's some present it'll be play in the bottom ball joint. Ball joints available but fiddly to replace. Renault will only sell a complete upright.

Just get @bloke to check the timing mate.

Oh and I've driven a 197 R27 too btw, which that shares its chassis with. :up:

That'll be very similar to the 200 in terms of how it drives mate. The gearbox will have different ratios to the first 197's, so should make it slightly better on fuel. The 200 chassis is slightly better than the 197 though as they tweaked a few things. Would you notice that? Doubt it tbh...

Order 3 bottles mate. Officially they take 3.1ltrs, but 3 bottles of redline is sufficient.

Hard use - mt90 Trackdays/fast road - mtl

I can sort your box mate, but I'd need it out of the car. You'd need someone who's happy to have it sat there for a couple of weeks (tops) though as this isn't my day job unfortunately.

I'm still yet to see a failed diff bearing.
