You need to do a video to show the 1st gear issue dan. Lol! Not bad eh considering we only had sockets, a hammer, 2 screwdrivers, a blow torch and the snap-on impact gun to strip it down to that level!
Lol! Happy days then! The last time I saw their Clio they were 'modifying' the drivers seat and cutting off the head restraints/ears!! This was at the Nurburgring where they're banned on TF days. Whoopsie!
The flow figures for any fuel pump are voltage related as well gents. You need a good 13v supply to get the maximum out of them. A genuine Bosch 044 will do 500hp happily as well. I've got one.
Also incy-spider do those fuel pipes just pass through the bodyshell with sealant around them or do...
Re: E36 Track Day Hack (v2)
My mates m3 evo consistently ran at 125 degrees on trackdays and tourist laps at the ring. He never had any issues with it at all, but he did religiously run the car on castrol Rs 10/60 which is what BMW recommend in all M cars (now castrol edge)

Providing your running decent oil (which I'm sure you are) I wouldn't worry about it so much tbh mate. Having oil at that sort of temperature is acceptable. It's when you start tipping the scales at 130+ you want to be worrying.
Interesting. Do you think the front bumper will support it well enough then? I find them reasonably flexible personally. It's really nice work your doing though all the same! Has Lar's had any input?
One is for the a/c equipped cups and the other is for the non a/c equipped cups mate. I've had both so I know this! Lol! Yours will be the 80amp one. The a/c cars run a 110amp iirc.
Remove the n/s driveshaft and look to see if it's popped the circlip out mate. You'll need to refill the box with oil though so just make sure you've got something to catch the oil.
You need to drop the aux belt off and run it. If the noise is still there you need to look at your belts. If it goes away when the aux belt is removed its either alternator, water pump, p/steering pump or a/c compressor.
