I'd order bc's over gaz any day of the week. Far far superior. A lot of bc's have that collar to adjust ride height without altering the damper travel. Good idea tbf.

The machining involved in fitting the Quaife diff in a jc5 is only done on the oe crownwheel mate. They machine pockets into it for ball bearings as these retain the crownwheel. It's pressed on and glued on the original. To fit it in the box, I'll condense the process! Remove box, split box...

I use the same grade/spec in my track car and will be running it in the new engine as well when it's built. I'll also be running a laminova oil cooler to warm the oil up quicker.

Everytime I wash and polish my cup I polish the windows at the same time with the same car body polish (usually meguiars) and I've never had a problem.

I always say, you can buy the car but you can't buy the driver.

Any chance you could weigh one of the wheels? Assuming they have no tyres on of course.

You'll be a slave to the OT now mate!

When you back?

Here's my efforts from the afternoon at the Rs day. These are 2:06-2:08's as there weren't any megs on slicks to chase! The rear wheel bearings are fucked in this video as well, so it made it a bit more lively on the rear end. Them curb stones at Brittens didn't like me straightlining them. Lol!

^^^ that looks really good actually! Not a fan of how far they stick out, but they do look the part. Any ideas how much they weigh?

Tracking done?

It's because of the original design and size mate. They have to use such a large piece of the correct grade steel (not cheap) then machine a lot of it away to manufacture a lsd for a Clio. The originals are just cast and machined up so they're obviously cheaper in comparison, but they wouldn't...

£650 delivered mate. @ilovewilly

What's the gearbox code mate? I may be able to help.

Lol I've seen your tag!!!

When I paired my original loom back it was done with no diagrams whatsoever mate, so I feel your pain. You'll appreciate all the effort you've put in to do it though when you weigh what you've removed! All sub 1kg's worth of it. I s**t you not! Lol

Don't rule out the gen90 ecu from Ktec. Utilises the original wiring loom with no cutting required, and just as good as the other ecu's out there. They come up on here for sale from time to time and more than capable of running a s/c engine.

Yes mate the key is in most of the cranks. Some of them don't have the key though, but they're a bit of a rarity.

Megane pulley has a key on it to locate on the stock cranks key way. Standard f4r's don't have a keywayed bottom belt pulley, but with the additional forces from the supercharger you need the megane pulley to stop them slipping.

I'd imagine your laptimes will be near to mine, if not faster tbh tom. You've got a diff and extra hp as well compared to mine currently.

Flol! I read that completely wrong then!

I bore witness to him trying to diagnose a car with a cambelt that had jumped a tooth or 2, and it would appear that he couldn't even tell that it was turning over faster than normal because it had bent valves and f**k all compression!! That was an instant way for me to lose any respect that I...

I would happily punch him in the face for anyone if they wanted me to tbh.

If you don't start the engine then the flush will do no damage at all to the engine mate so don't panic. Realistically even if you did start it, it still won't do anything as by the sounds of it it's making no oil pressure! If that's the case how long did you run the engine for with the light...

Lol!

Have a read of his LinkedIn profile tony!! It's better than stand up comedy! Lol

'I am the type of person who achieves fulfillment by learning new skills, and applying them successfully. I take pride in finished projects and great personal interest in seeing things from start to finish.' Can you smell the bullshit?

Vw golf gti mate. Possibly others in the vag family as well.

Is that just a Yorkshire thing then? I thought the average was 6"? Flol!!! The vital word you missed out there was snow my boy!! I read it and thought, wtf?! Lol

If they aren't fucked I'd be tempted to re-ring them tbh mate. You'll know if it's damaged the ring lands/skirts when you pop them out. The ring lands normally fall off where they've cracked.
