Pocket change for the people who buy these cars.

they obviously don’t race it then 😂

It sounds like it could be the motor then. Mine was fine all day and I did 6-8 track days a year.

I assume you've played around with the controller? Occasionally mine would switch off and the steering would go stiff. Funnily enough, the first time it happened was at the top of coppice, just turning into Charlies 🤯 I found the vibration was moving the controller switch just enough to switch...

Are you sure it’s not wheel bearings? I never noticed mine at high speeds, but as I approached roundabouts it became more obvious. I had little to no play in mine but they we’re just rusty and dry. Plus I’d do them as a matter of course, especially as you’re going to track it.

Sorry I meant with the suspension and how it sits. Might just be the angle 🤷🏻‍♂️

That sits lovely. What’s going on there then?

My own personal view would be yes, provided it was in a top notch condition. History is always important on any car, but by how much is anybody’s guess. As it stands it looks like a tired old RB.

No worries. I posted the part numbers after my original reply. Not sure if you've seen those?

You won't get a brand new genuine one but Shaftec supply refurbished genuine ones. I'd highly recommend one of those. More money than the J&R but they're essentially a refurbished genuine part. You want R396R (OSF - Drivers) replaces 8200352042 and R396L (NSF - Passenger) replaces 8200372167.

I did mine at Christmas but was unaware the unit pulls apart and the buttons are easily transferred. Thank you to @SharpyClio for the tip. So I bought a second-hand unit, not sure if it worked or not, and just switched everything over. Now I've got 1 really nice unit out of 2.

My old BG 182 did this for a year. Started fine, then parked it up and then wouldn’t start. Did 3,000 trouble free miles, then one cold winters evening coming out of work, wouldn’t crank. Changed TDC, starter motor, switched UCH, ECU, got an auto electrician out to remove the immobiliser part of...

Liquid Yellow tax. Up on the miles but it’ll fetch good money because of the colour.

Where’s it up for sale at? There’s some history of it here https://www.renaultsportclub.co.uk/forum/general-forums/car-blogs/98033-clio-182-liquid-yellow

Yeah, mine weren’t as tight a fit as I would’ve liked, so put some gorilla glue in and they’ve been solid.

A trip down to Matlock yesterday to pick up a genuine unopened front splitter from @Coops Mk1 Had to remortgage the house 😂 but needs must. Cheers fella and lovely to meet you.

I wouldn’t want to fit that Jon, rather I’d just stare at it 😂 Lovely work.

Whereabouts in Yorkshire are you?

To be honest that rust on the back arch needs some serious TLC and it’s likely to be in other places as well. With that mileage, I can’t see anybody wanting to spend that sort of money, to then go through the pain of restoring that. The colour is a big plus. If I was buying it I’d be turning it...

With all these for sale posts, without pictures and detail, it’s difficult for anybody to say. Just do a detailed write up, get some good pictures and then put a for sale post for what YOU think it’s worth. You’ll soon find out if people are interested or not, then you can always adjust and go...

🙋🏻‍♂️ And believe me when I say it’ll be like new when I’ve finished Joking aside I am in the market for another project

Such a shame as I think the last one that sold went for mega money. I totally agree.

I would’ve thought the opposite would happen. I.E when the clutch is pressed in, the noise goes away as everything is under load. With that age and mileage on the original clutch, I’d bet it’s the bearing thrust guide. When mine went it rattled when you pressed the clutch in, not when it was...

I would assume their customers.

You're probably aware of this - And this -

I’m never happy Nick 😂 I enjoy the work but once it’s done I’m like, what’s next.

I think this should be it for the RB project now with the exception of a couple of parts, some of which I've already sourced but not yet fitted. Still on the lookout for a pipe going from the actuator to the airbox (there is one for sale on here but it's part of an airbox and not available as a...

I've got another set identical to those Darryl. The lad from who I bought the RB from only had 3 Turini's so bought a spare off me. They were in the colour on your BG. He just went to the same place I go and had the other 3 refurbished in the same colour. I used to run TD Pro Race 15s on that...
