Always set your tyre pressures HOT. (track use) Ive just got back from Bedford and the R888's had absolutley spot on even wear. In fact they look no different to when we put them on. Were running then at around 2bar HOT in the front and 1.8bar Rear. Front will always go up more than the rear...

Belt done now and save for a charger. You know it makes sense

With or without the bearings isnt an issue for me. No one does them with the abs rings exept Renault. But I did manage to buy some pattern ones WITH the abs rings from ECP once

I got a set from euro car parts last year all built up with rings and bearings for about £75. When I rang back to get some more for a mate they didnt have a clue what I was talking about, even tho i had a part number

You can get a vw or vauxhall space saver. The stud patern is the same but you need to make the centre bigger to make it fit over the hub

^ the man speeks sense

Love it tbh

page 21 So 182 is fine as they dont come with one but if you have a 172 etc that comes with one but you left it at home, you are 'potentialy' liable for towing costs

Read your terms and conditions booklet.

Top job

Yes but I run with a spare on the road. Had to use it once too

Yea coz it makes the car sooo much faster :rolleyes:

^ looks like an RC car, Lol I'll have to come along and see you two race sometime, always enjoy your reports

^ blow out and your screwed, repair kits arent magic

Man, Dan is going to have such a big head he wont be able to fit it inside a crash helmet when I take him around mallory Park next weekend. Very deserving tho, True legend of car photography. I just hope he can do weddings to the same standard.

I dont know much about it but if i could get cable i would. Im currently with orange and the monthly fe include the line rental so some other companies may offer it this way too. Gets expensive/confusing if you have to pay BT aswell

I may have a pic somewhere, cant look right now coz photobucket is on strike. Yes it is noticable, Its all the crap that is off line on the circuit. Marbles they call it sometimes in race comentry

it depends how 'dirty' the track is. if its rained hard since the last race meeting its normaly washed the marbles away

Wet tbh ;)

sorry I didnt read your first reply properly. I wasnt sugesting getting an FRP inlet just a normal 1.7. Ive read that it doenst gain you power just mid range torque

Are you sure? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/97-02-FORD-PUMA-1-7-INLET-MANIFOLD_

Trust me it can be mental loud. I got my rear tyres off a mate who had used them at Brands. For the first 100miles it sounded like a machine gun going off randomly. Be great if thats all it is, let us know

Nice work so far. Ive read the puma 1.7 inlet manifold can help improve torque. Altho if it was me id be dropping a 2.0L Duratec in there

Have a look at the tyres, if there is loads of bits of rubber stuck to them then im pretty sure that will be it. Takes a few miles but will eventualy stop. Or swap tyres front to rear and light the boy up :rasp:

Yep, had this on my old one. washers cured it

One set of wheels. Im using two sets this year and its pissing me off already and ive not done a trackday yet this year.

could just be tyre pickup. old rubber stuck to the tyre. makes a hell of a noise & can be intermitant.

I agree with Beef and Daniel tbh. Many thanks, Burp

Just pops out

Depending on budget..... Cams with belt change. Matched inlets and de-aircon. If you can stretch to it switch to omex management and your ready for bodies at a later date OR if your flush Cambelt change and 'charge the bugger
