Just fit some 10 or 12mm spacers to where the column bolts on to the bodyshell at the front and refit the rears with none. It makes enough of a difference to the position of the column without putting the uj out of its comfort zone.
I agree with this tbh. Only thing I'd say different would be kw v2's as they have give you the option for damper adjustment. If you buy brand new genuine wishbones they come with the bushes and rods as well so makes more sense imo.
Cheap coilovers will ruin the handling.
I'm still yet to see a standard wishbone bush that's worn out tbh, but I've seen plenty of poly bushed wishbones causing agg. In all fairness though, that was the older style powerflex bushes that required tack welds on the sleeves.
Depends where the pistons finished up after the Elvis Presley conrod made a bid for freedom and how much oil starvation the rest of its seen.
Potential for the head and cams to be safe, maybe a bent valve or 16 and the pistons could be reused, but that is purely based on where it was in the...
Yeah if you jack the car up it won't work as there's no resistance for the motor to work against.
Measure the voltage at the battery and also at the column with the motor running. It needs to be the same or similar. You also need to measure the amps as well ideally but that's not as easy to...
They lengthened the rack on a cup using longer arms that screw into the rack. I've got a rack in bits currently, so I can take measurements if you want?
I run full Grp n cam timing on a standard inlet on my cup and it makes a really noticeable difference to the torque delivery. It's rpm limit is set to just under 8k and it'll happily pull round to that as well. It's on a genuine Grp n Renault ecu as well.
Just an FYI mate for if you were...
If you want it to handle you'll need to lift the front end up. 5-10mm minimum I'd say. It's too low how it currently stands imo. Your roll centres and bump steer will be truly awful as well unfortunately. The chassis on the Clio is good at masking it though, and it's only when you drive one...
^^^ that should read main assistance is done from the spool valve on the column. (I'm meaning where the column joins to the rack as well - not the actual column in the car!)
The pressurised fluid goes from there to the reaction tube in the rack and gives assistance to the steering.
Neil I removed all the fluid out of mine and then looped the rack. Are you sure it's not air locking or vacuuming? Does it do it in the same spot everytime?
On the video it sounds like your tyres are causing a resistance on the surface it's sat on. Mine does it as well. Try it on turnplates if...
You caught James up really fast mate once past the Saxo. Good bit of driving that! Shame you chose to edit out the incident though. Must admit I've woken up with that bird and her cuddly toy or whatever the f**k it is on several occasions. Lol!
Cadwell is such a tight circuit with not a great...
