Thanks mate! :cool:

Ok so the overnight parts finally arrived for the gearbox. I had a spare 10 minutes today so I decided to fully assemble the mainshaft. EVERY gear on this shaft is now brand new! As it currently stands: Then it was time to look at the twin fan mounts. Here's the new ally rad with my twin 10"...

Yeah they're a tad extravagant tbh. Piece of piss to install though. My oil lines are less than 1mtr in length for the pair of them as well. I have always been told -10 for oil lines mate so that's what I've opted for. Have a look at the speedflow push on hose and hose ends. Not expensive at...

Cheers! Nah mate. Cba tbh! This is just all a bit of fun for me really, so whatever power it makes I'll be happy with. If it was all out performance I would've run it on itbs from the off, but I prefer to do things a bit different.

Cheers!

Your mum. Or so the rumour goes. Lol!

Yeah I'd assume it does as well mate tbh.

You need a 5pk 847 belt mate. That's what mine is.

f**king hilarious car!! Made me chuckle! You want 888's up front and ad08's on the rear! That's the mans choice. Flol!

Yes mate 2 wires for the fan and forget the rest mate. I've never seen anything connected to the other plug on a Clio tbh.

Getting there mate!

You want -10 oil cooler pipes mate so whatever the equivalent is in imperial. Laminova coolers are where it's at. You can't get a stone through one of them. :wink:

Ignore the additional one if your on about the one in the fan cowling?

Yeah no worries mate. I can't guarantee that the replacement box will last though! Luck of the draw unfortunately.

You forgot to mention going to get me some currywurst sachets from Rewe for me with @TimR26! Lol!

Imo yes mate. It'll put substantially more strain on the gearbox as instead of losing the energy through 1 wheel spinning, it will spin both and put more load on the drivetrain. 1st and 2nd gear will be the likely culprit for failure. Interestingly though, Renault have re-designed these gears so...

Nice! What cams are you running then? Purely just out of curiosity as there's not much selection, or at least that's how it appears anyway. 221bhp at .4 bar is not to be sniffed at either. Steel crank and rods?

Pics or it ain't true! :wink: What's the power output on that then?

Need to see pics of yours mate!

You'll probably find the gearbox suffers as a result of you fit a diff mate. It'll put more strain through it.

You'll probably find that you need to run a minimum of 400lb springs on the rear and 475-525's on the front. The gaz stuff has come on leaps and bounds now tbf, but they still ain't at the same level as asts or kw's imo. Nowhere near.

Yeah they definitely transform the drive of the clios. You might need to up the spring rates though on the asts mate if your solely using it on track.

Well they helped to take my car around the nordschliefe in 8:31 mate, so they'll be plenty good enough for UK roads. Tbh I loved them to bits and sometimes wished I'd upgraded to the custom kw's instead of the ast's.

Nice to see @Ph1 Tom 's parts being used on another track car. If you have any issues with the hubs get in touch mate. They're my brainchild. Lol!

You'll not go far wrong with kw's mate. Awesome in EVERY way. The ride quality of my v2's was exceptional.

Well still waiting on overnight parts so I decided to drop the coolant and make a start on getting the engine and box ready to lift out. Also had a chance to offer the new smaller ally rad up to see what mounts I need to fabricate. You can see in this shot some of the mods to the slam panel for...

Definitely diff bearings imo. It's w**k that you have to crack the box open to change them.

Exhaust ports are the same as the 182 heads mate. Small!

Yeah it should do mate. The holes are in diff itself so those holes won't be there anyway.
