Get rid of the hoses and leave the box open, if you look at the right side of the front grill there's a little channel that feeds air directly into the engine where the boxes intake hole is, i've been running mine like that for years and never suffered with reduced power due to heat soak.

You might have to set your tent up before you go on track and leave all your crap in there, they'll be people camping on the Friday night so you won't be alone.

It'll be the coilovers that have ruined it, I bet if you went to cup dampers and Eibach springs most of the rattles would go away.

It hold 3 litres do I doubt you've lost it all otherwise your drive would be covered, you can't really check the level apart from buying a litre of oil, undoing the plastic screw on the front of the box and topping it up until it leaks out, then you know you have the right amount, it's a very...

Make sure you look over your shoulder the next time go you into the woods. There's alot of inexpensive things you can do to these cars that improve and optimise their performance, to say don't bother and save your money implies Renault have done an absolutely perfect job in the first place and...

Arse licker.

Is it me or does that drag strip go straight over the edge of a cliff? Is it just an eight of a mile?

They're sh*t out the box, f*ck all power before 5k rpm, too much body roll and a pea shooter exhaust that rots off as soon as it's gets wet.

I'd buy a car that already had all the modifications I intended on doing because it would a damn sight cheaper doing them myself. But assuming I had a standard car i'd do the exact same things again : Brembo HC discs and pads Braided steel brake lines with good quality brake fluid Eibach...

Probably not, I haven't had a drink in quite a while, so if I suddenly started knocking it back i'd probably get alcoholic poisoning.

I'll probably book it closer to the date, I won't be doing any track time as the car needs too much work to safely blast about lap after lap.

Are your farts really that bad?

Roadkill's always had sponsorship from Dickies so that's not something that bothers me, what bothers me is that wasn't a Roadkill episode, just because it says Roadkill and has the two of them in it doesn't mean it is, Roadkill is about taking total death traps usually from a junk yard, cramming...

Such a good noise, good investment too it's only ever going to go up in value.

Wolverhampton parts Andy? His names Adam.

JC5 130 has the circlip bolted in place, JC5 129 and lower don't, being a cup your car is more than likely a 129, the 130's are also non speedo drive so if your box is a 129 speedo drive you can't swap it for a 130.

When I bought my car it was 5 years old with 5 previous owners.

You'll need to climb in the back and unscrew the plastic cover on the boot, it's one screw, then you just pull it off as it's secured with poppers, inside the boot is a metal bar that moves the lock, you'll need to push/pull it to get the boot open. You'll more than likely need a new solenoid...

Why does the car scene always have to consist of serious and worthwhile mods, or styling that fits in with everyone's version of what's looks cool, surely there's room for cars that are a bit of a laugh and are modified as a f*ck about project? If i'd have seen it at a car show yes i'd have...

The knocking when it's turned off sounds expensive, like new engine expensive.

Usually when they sound like old diesel black cabs it's because the dephaser pulley's knackered, like this. But yours sounds alot worse than normal.

No not in the slightest, all you'll do is strip the threads.

Oh, that's a bit too far away from Coventry for me to come and have a look. lol

Standard engine mount. (on the left) Uprated engine mount.

They shouldn't be scraping with new shocks at all, the springs set the ride height and the shocks just damp the bumps out so the back doesn't bounce around and Cooksports don't lower the car that much, where are you in the country?

Anti roll bar bolted to the subframe, pretty easy to find it's the long bar that connects to both wishbones.

The springs don't get removed to put new shocks in, I replaced mine before I knew anything about cars, it's a simple job that's pretty much impossible to screw up, unless your springs have somehow become unseated, but they'd have probably fallen out by now. Have you actually had a look at them...

Am I ever going to get to sit in this thing and play with the buttons, please tell me you're bringing it to CSS, it's no even that far from you this year?
