stick to a 50 IMO, all our track clios run a 50 just for added saftey
there's no perfomance benefit between a 40 or 50
i can put you in contact with the guy who looks after all of the engines for Renaultsport if you want
tesco super is circa E5 bioethanol, don't get het up about RON rating, as i say the trade off you have is you use more fuel, so you are pissing in the wind slightly as the cost will work out the same
^this was going back about 3 years, 20L was 5 laps of the hungaroring, stung my eyes when that thing fired up!
from memory we were doing 1min 25's Vs's F1 at 1min 19's but we were +50kg, not much aero and no TC, i miss that car!
Re: 1.2 Track car Conversion
i'll get in the car right now and drive to Warrington just to slap you if you do! don't mess with perfection, i designed them NOT to fit into the bumper
^still have to map it to suit, plus (in simple terms) you have to use approx 30% more E85 than petrol to get the same power (its way more complicated than that, but i'll keep it simple)
i see more failed coolant temp sensors than i do thermostats, but if the thermostat is fucked it will probably knacker the sensor as a result - in simple terms change both
if these break then the ecu thinks the engine is on cold start and dumps loads of fuel in = knackered MPG
they're £50 for a pair of discs, hardly breaking the bank
and don't get too hung up on Brembo discs, its a lump of cast iron at the end of the day!
you should really use DS2500's (or any fancy pad) with fresh discs, but its not gospel
but ask yourself this - as (i assume) a novice track...
ah
1 - bumper bolts/undertray
J - holds the loom onto the upper gearbox 3 legged bracket looking at that photo
2 - not from a renault
E - is for holding the loom onto the inlet, just by fuel rail i think
when i can be bothered i'll write it out
A - 16mm nut, underside of the front lower box mount
B - pad carrier to hub, 18mm
C - Lower box mount to gearbox (16mm)
D - driveshaft bolts x 3 (13mm)
E - earth strap "i think" (16mm)
F - slam pannel 13mm
G - possible airbox, depends on length...
