    Fitting new MSA wire tow loops

    No mate. Custom custom custom!

    Clio 200 Mk3.

    I'm north of 35 and can't think of anything worse than a megane tbf. But I have a mk5 golf as a (soon to be replaced with an f31) daily drive. The clio is only for hooligan drives out.

    Clio 200 Mk3.

    If I drove mine as a daily driver, I think it would boil my piss tbh. But that's not what a 200 is for imo. They only come alive when you can exploit the chassis and brakes. Then it all makes sense, and it's what makes me enjoy mine. It doesn't feel as raw as my first cc equipped cup, but it's...

    Help fitting ktec coilovers - GLOUCESTER AREA

    You're correct mate. The helper spring just keeps the spring seated at full droop.

    Fitting new MSA wire tow loops

    That's a bladed anti roll bar mate.

    Fuchs Titan Race Pro S 10W50 in track car

    You'd be fine to stick with 5/40 tbh mate. It's designed to take the hammer from what I read before I bought it.

    I can sort you out if the kits is something you want.

    Fuchs Titan Race Pro S 10W50 in track car

    Depends on if you're having oil pressure issues

    Fuchs Titan Race Pro S 10W50 in track car

    I ran my 230bhp motor on 5w 40 tbh. Never had any issues with it thinning too much under extreme abuse.

    Sm inlet high idle

    If the manifold has o rings on the flange face you don't need a gasket. The o rings create the seal. Spray some chain lube around the potential leak areas. If the idle drops, then picks up, you've found the area of the leak.

    Clio 172 flywheel position

    It can only go one way mate as the bolt pattern is offset. :up:

    Trying to diagnose whether my timing has slipped.

    Tbf mate, it may have just dropped a valve.
  13. NorthloopCup

    Trying to diagnose whether my timing has slipped.

    That sounds like a idler pulley has failed or the aux belt tensioner is seized and made the belt come into contact with the cambelt. That'll have fucked the head mate.

    You're welcome mate. :up:

    My Inferno Story...

    I've always been a fan of bright coloured turinis!

    Gearbox seal

    It's leaking because the jubilee clip isn't tightening the full 360 degree circumference. You need a jubilee clip with the insert to apply the pressure all the way around the surface area, or you need a cv boot/ear clip.

    group N cam timing

    Technically it shouldn't have any effect as grp n cars had to pass mot tests etc. Failing that you need to cheat!

    group N cam timing

    Try now. It'll work.
  19. NorthloopCup

    group N cam timing

    Well you know what to do! Lol
  20. NorthloopCup

    group N cam timing

    Yes mate massively. Mine improved mid range and top end tbf.
  21. NorthloopCup

    group N cam timing

    The grp n timing alters the dynamic compression ratio, so technically an old belt will be working a bit harder too. With the basic induction and exhaust mods though, it's the best bang per £ you'll ever get from an f4r. I loved my old cup on grp n and they do/did a tool for the mk3 too. That...

    group N cam timing

    It's a bit moody re-timing it and not replacing the belt mate tbf. If anything fails after the timings been adjusted, the person who did it will be held responsible. Even if it's f**k all to do with them!

    group N cam timing

    One last chance. https://www.cliosport.net/threads/full-grp-n-cam-timing-tool.805210/

    Sunstrip and MOT

    If it's in the swept area of the wiper blades it's a fail.

    Adam's 172 Turbo Build

    Have you checked the rods for ovality on the main bearings? If not, get them checked.

    Lol technically impossible on a Jc5 I'm afraid

    182_steve's FF 182 progress thread!

    Lol!! No worries mate. I think it was done as I was due out on the piss and had 20 minutes to get the box apart and ready to go out! My mates said it couldn't be done...........
