did similar years ago in my old turbo one, hottest summer over there in years and i had plastic windows etc, it was sweltering. had a 1.2 rack at the time as well so may turns lock to lock!
this car now has a Williams rack on it, simply with the power steering setup removed from it, not even...
its ideal for that @flebay
in other news, window has been fixed properly now with a new old regulator! lol! happy times
also fixed the pesky airbag lights again, the passenger seat connector is dodgy but i don't want to loose the plug and solder it as that just seems pikie to me...... so...
much quieter, RS192 i found a bit droney, this is basically silent. will disappoint if your after some noise when pressing on as well though as its quiet then too
suits me perfectly as I have the other car for the noise and this as the quiet daily!
yes @imprezaworks and I've replied ;-)
cheers @KitsonRis it a labour of love but i wouldn't have it any other way, both mk2's would go before this thing

Another coat of rust nomming stuff added after wire brush drill attachment run over the inner arches.
Also bodged up the rust patches with filler which I need to let set and sand back , it'll do for now until I get it all welded in few millenia

On Monday my window reg decided to snap it's cable on the passenger side.

So I fixed it.... Sort of...

As such plan was to rip the front end of the car apart, remove the brakes and bodged up front brake lines and clean up the inner...
29-01-2018 - Bedford
Went to Bedford for the first one of the year, had a terrible day in all honesty! Blew 97db static and spent all day on part throttle due to setting off the 4 mics trackside. 87db drive by limit is just madness, too quiet!
I'll admit the car has got louder, swear it blew...
I'd be getting the flywheel off and doing the crank main seal and new flywheel bolts, maybe even skim the clutch mating face too. Also if subframes off the sump gasket (if there is any perceptible leaks).
and chuck a cheeky set of ARP rod bolts in there whilst your at it, never know if the...
It's not comparable between cars really as it's adjustable by its nature.
Just wind it on and eyeball the tracking, should be able get it close enough to drive few miles to a garage for tracking
i'm on the fence with this too, i feel it'll be a disappointment in my car due to the whole power thing
and its a lot of cash, could do Cadwell 3 times for the same price and that's a superb track for the clios
but its Silverstone, iconic, so i think i will have to do it at some point
