Another system at the top end that seems to get over looked is the Pure Motorsport system. I have one myself and its an awesome product that sounds well, fits together perfectly (no stupid adjustable joints that leak) and looks filthy. The silenced version is better for an everyday car and...

There is something called "Windows 8"? Isn't it that thing that Apple are trying to emulate with iOS7?

I know chap and I'm not trying to blame it on that minor leak or you for that matter because we've not seen the car and can only go on what you've said happened. I genuinely feel s**t for you right now... I hate it when my engines go wrong but its unlikely any F4R would've survived a shift to...

Its more likely as that's the common cause but it may also be to do with the steering angle sensor so run a gault code check on the ABS first.

One of my examples. Had to change the turbo amd gearbox on a mates Z20 powered Zaf GSiT... I'm rahing now just thinking about that horrible stupid thing

I feel the same about Vauxhalls and Fords Chip. Loads of room but just completely alien to me

Anti rattle, help with heat transfer/thermal bridging and aid with stopping the pads sticking in the carrier. You can run without them though, we did it fine for years before.

Just the contact edges. You could always whip the shims out though and they'll fit.

Because the pads backing plate has been in use for years on other Renault's. Renault then decided to tweek the design for the X65 by adding a shim to the assembly and not everyone bothered reducing the plate dimension to suit by around -1mm

Yeah, didn't Corky do something at Bedford? He said there's an oil leak to but I've not seen the car so can't really say any more until he's decided what he'd like to do with the car or I've seen it.

Spoke to Tim this morning and he said when he went from 3rd to 4th the revs went mentally high so I'm *thinking* he may have over-revved it which has dragged the crank. I've said I'll help him out if I can though with it if he goes the new engine route (most viable option IMO).

My place - Already spoken with Tim about it this morning

No that's my hardcore Megane Cup race car... the Clio is being made from 2" square pine to save weight. Not entirely sure on the single series yet is the honest truth as there's so much work to be done but yes, is the simple answer... this is what I have planned building it for.

My 2500's were the same after a day at Bedford in Feb but it trenched the life out of the discs to.

Yeah me to but I take every engine build personally so like to know what happens to them after they leave me. He said he went for 3rd and not sure if he missed it or got it but the revs went sky high so clutched it and turned off when he stopped. Went to restart and nothing so I'm guessing it...

Spoke to Tim about it just after 9 this morning and from what he said it sounds like its over-revved :( He's going to sit on it for a while because it needs tax and MOT but I think we'll just end up helping him fit a replacement engine when he's ready.

It's all down to driving style and personal interpretation so completely a "horses for courses" issue but I will never buy or recommend anyone buy DS2500's as an "Upgrade" when the OE Brembo compound does the same on both road and track for less. This is what I always buy from George/G-172 when...

I *try* to please Ryan and its not very often that I loose an engine as an actual fault of mine or the parts I fit but i'm only human and if wee play the odds it's bound to happen eventually. In the last 10 years I've actually only lost one to date and that was down to changing the top covers...

Renault annoy me with some of there UK pricing - This is another example of why

I'm a bit late on this one but my 10 pence worth... I didn't rate the DS2500 and I killed a set of Brembo discs and these pads on track earlier in the year. Not a particularly amazing stopper either IMO especially not for the money. I run the DS3000 now but that's not what we're on about here...

No, they should all be the same but if the front wheels were spinning faster/slower it would obviously alter the output reading. Seeing as you are getting a reading/wave generation though I'd say that's unlikely to be your issue.

Tim, I'll give you a shout later on this. I know the belt change is now out of warranty being over 12 months but if its my doing/failing I'll try to help out with this. Really need to see what's occurred though so don't go unbolting stuff just yet. Anyone been doing anything work wise...

Euro Car Parts and GSF are cheaper for injectors but personally I wouldn't be spending any money like that without a definitive diagnosis.

A good welder will fix that for you

I said it was my first attempt! I'm now using truss bolts for extra strength.

Can't see the welds... must be good! Somewhere, someones scaffold rig is unsafe

Stripped it in prep for cage fitment :s "Its a cheap car Dave, I'm not modding it"

Standard spark plugs cannot cope? WtF have you done to it? If I had to guess I'd say the Magnecors are guilty

I remember you calling about a belt change on this car to. Who did it?
