    TRACK TROPHY 381 – PROGRESS TO DATE

    Don't know mate, 5 or 10 kilos maximum, and that probably includes the matting behind the dash...... It never seemed that heavy when doing it but when picking the carrier bag up at the end it was quite heavy, I never weighed it though.......

    TRACK TROPHY 381 – PROGRESS TO DATE

    you need a heat gun mate, not a hair dryer, you'll be there for ever and a day, the heat gun gets it almost melted so all you have left is the residuee, then the white spirit eats through it............... no soapy water required at all. you'll get a cheap heat gun at Aldi or B&Q for £20...

    TRACK TROPHY 381 – PROGRESS TO DATE

    use a heat gun get it tacky and use a scraper, keep heating it and most of it comes off no problem. then use white spirit and a microfiber cloth. wipe over the whole area to soften the residue, then put more white spirit and wipe it off. It comes up like new with very little effort, the heating...

    TRACK TROPHY 381 – PROGRESS TO DATE

    Tonight's update kinda falls into that boring but possibly satisfying category................ the Trophy moves again! but you still feel a little robbed at spending cash for something you cant see! clutch fitted and all feels great, especially with the box oil changed as well...

    sburrell's ph1 172 track project (maybe)

    looking good mate, the seats will make a massive difference in the car. good to see progress! :smile:
  22. cpaterson76

    full respray

    is he using Dulux or Crown for that sort of cash? Fair play if you get a cracking job for that money, but unless its mates rates I think that is very very cheap........

    CAR WONT START RACING NEXT WEEKEND - HELP!!

    This does sound like a simple case of re-jointing the wires. I would also note that the sensors in the pillar behind the door do need to be connected as well or the car will turn over and not start. I had a very similar problem to what you have described, I had unplugged mine whilst stripping...

    Cheers mate. Ebay mate, 24.99 + delivery, they say it's for a mk3 clio, but if you email them they can do a mk2, I think it's probably the same one! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-stickers-Clio-F1-Team-roof-/250619950075?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3a5a1cf3fb I always think black with...
