Oh right, if it’s just a straight swap I’ll get some bought 👌🏻

Someone more knowledgeable than me might be able to jump in, but yeah around that power level I'll probably run out of fuel if they try to push it any further. I might pick up a spare set of 197's just in case, but they might not be necessary. Plus I'm not really sure if they require any special...

I'm off to EFI on the 8th to get my Clio mapped, so I'm happy to share my results once it's done so you know what direction to go with yours. Mine's got 197 Cams, Phase 1 airbox with ITG filter, 182 manifold with decat, ported/polished inlets and the PMS lightweight pulleys with aircon...

Number 20 for sale on eBay, hasn't done many miles since it was last sold: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/205489578334?_trksid=p4375194.c101781.m46343

I think the quote for my Clio at Anglesey in 2023 was around £100, but it's worth about 25p so your M4 being around £200 seems like a decent deal to me.

£200 seems pretty decent tbh. When my Dad tried to get track insurance for his Yaris GR at Anglesey, they wanted around £600!

I've gone with the R26.R DMF in the end, came to £282. Compared to the TTV SMF which was £380ish, I'm happy to save the £100 over a very minor loss in performance.

Spot on, I figured it would make more sense to keep the DMF seeing as it's mostly a road car! Thankfully I can get a LUK DMF for the R26.R off Autodoc for around £280, so I'll go ahead and buy that. 👌

Hi folks, The clutch in my R26 has decided to s**t the bed, so I'm in need of some advice. I've already ordered a new R26.R clutch, but I'm wondering if I should buy a new R26.R DMF or upgrade to a SMF? As it stands the car is mostly a road car, but I have used it on track. I know people say...

I could grab you some pictures tonight if needed, don't think I've got any currently. They've probably done about 30k miles, the top engine mount has zero play. They only one I don't have is the dogbone mount, but they differ between the Ph1 and Cups anyway.

Are you looking for new mounts, or would you take some used ones? I've just taken all 4 off my car to replace them with solid mounts, so you're welcome to them? They were all in pretty decent condition, didn't seem to be much play in them at all.

It'll be that rubber mount with the two prongs that the gearbox sits on top of, on the subframe.

Number 164 (reg: Y172 SDB) has appeared for sale again, asking £7250: https://www.carandclassic.com/l/C1869427

Nice little double spot at lunch today, a tidy Cortina and a Suzuki Cappuccino.

Supposedly these guys up in Scotland are now producing the RS2 intakes as they've gained the rights to it, not sure if anyone has actually managed to buy one off them however: https://www.flatoutperformance.co.uk/#&gid=1589341250&pid=9

With no MOT and no known history of the belts being done, I'd probably say that's worth maybe £2k at the most. I bought my nimbus grey 197 (non-cup) a couple of years back when the market was really inflated, for £2.5k on 99,000 miles, and was in the same state as yours with no MOT and the...

It’s not the batteries that were the issue, it’s the key itself. See if my method works, it’s easy enough to try. Otherwise it’s off to Renault for a new key, hopefully they still make them.

When my key was dying, I used to have issues starting the car unless I held down the button on the fob while starting the ignition. Sounds a bit wonky but it helped me start it for about 8 months until the key finally died and I had to go to Renault for a new one.

Well I've bought my weekend ticket and booked on for the full day! My clio is still in a million pieces, so let's see how this goes 😬

I was at Anglesey last week, no noise testing at all so I wouldn't worry.

1460kg without a driver I think, if you go for the bigger battery 150hp version.

0-62 in 7.9s, which is alright for a 150hp electric box. Plus this isn't the performance version, so not sure why you'd expect it to be rapid.

Continuing on with my mini-rant, what on earth do the new rally 3 & 4 cars have to do with the 'Hard Chargers' theme? Surely you'd be going for more cars that were known to be tough and could battle on, like the Octavia WRC? All seems a bit hashed together to me. Maybe they've switched focus...

I can't get my head around why they've added the '99 Focus, which was barely developed and massively overweight, when they could add the '03-04 Focus which would be much improved over the '01 Focus we have already. Plus the '03 Focus would give the Xsara a good fight in game based on the stats...

If I make a "Brrr" noise when I use it, does that make it powered...

I'm really impressed with it so far tbf, jacked my Megane up with ease. Only issue was I didn't quite realise how heavy it was, it's just shy of 40kg! I looked like a right plonker heaving the box across the carpark when I picked it. I stupidly turned down the Halfords' man when he offered to...

I got a halfords voucher for christmas, so I figured I might as well upgrade my jack. I went for the 3tonne low profile as it was only an extra £15 over the 2T when I used my tradecard. Safe to say I might have overdone it slightly... :LOL:

Fronts are from Brembo, rear callipers are supplied by TRW. Fairly sure you can still get them new, they might even be on Autodoc for pretty cheap.

I did the exact same thing on the opening lap of CSF23, blew the plug clean out the head. Thankfully I hadn't ruined any of the threads, so I popped it back in and it's been solid ever since.

That's the only version of the game that's really worth playing. Has hundreds of stages, great online rallies and the most up-to-date physics the game can handle. Be warned though, I think it's over 100gb due to all the stages. It's a little bit tricky to install, but if you follow the guide...
