    Need to go lighter!!

    To remove the tar strips you need a hot air gun and a scraper. After that you need thinners to remove the residue. When you say removed everything, are we talking standard seats as well and replaced with bucket seats? After that your into fibreglass panels, but they're not massively cheap in...

    It looks huge because what you can see in the picture is the body of the damper mate. They're actually inverted in the casing on the sportline 2's/5100. It's to reduce the flex to the bare minimum. Don't be fooled by the bullshit Martin! Lol!

    My RS2'd RB van

    I just bought the stiff shift mate, so it's whatever comes in that kit. I can't remember now as it was bought and fitted a few years ago now. Yanoo will be able to confirm what comes in the kit.

    My RS2'd RB van

    Sounds like a plan then mate. I've already got the Yanoo kit in the cup and really rate it tbh. I'm not sure that I'd swap to the pure shifter unless it really did feel substantially different/better

    Add a Yanoo kit to the scenic one though and your moving in the right direction.

    Yeah I can see what your saying mate. I'm quite fast moving my hands about due to my superhuman wanking abilities. Lol

    My RS2'd RB van

    Yeah it's working mate. I'll have to have a feel of yours (ooh er!) and see what I think to it. I don't dislike the original setup tbh.

    Lol! Thanks!

    Yeah you'd be surprised at just how much weight removal on these cars does make mate. I've upset a fair amount of exotica in what's essentially a stripped out cup.

    Trick Front Differential

    If you want a gripper let me know. I can get hold of them at very good prices.

    I'd say it's more important to keep the weight as low as possible. Sometimes you don't have much choice in terms of adding heavy items as they're a necessity. Unless you go full motorsport spec and source lightweight items of course, but that just adds time and ££££££'a to the job. Good of to...

    Fitting ASTs

    No it won't effect geometry mate, but fitting new rear beam bushes is a good idea. I'm yet to see a set that are knackered tbh, but uprating them is always worth doing for less compliant items. Regards the solid rear top bushes, I'd say they possibly make the damper do around 2-5% more of the...

    Fitting ASTs

    Not really mate, but it removes any compliance that you might get from the standard bushes. I was in a position where I could have some sets made up, so I did.

    Differences between F4R736 and F4R740

    Hi mate! It's not going to be for a couple of weeks/a month before I can get the engine to my new house for stripping as it's currently residing 65 miles away from where I currently live. If you can hold out a while you can have the brackets. Great news about the v2's as well. Pleased that...

    Yeah I'll try and get some pics uploaded of it for you mate.

    incy-spiders Clio 182 turbo

    2 reasons really mate. 1) cost! So f**king expensive to buy new and rare to see them come up secondhand. 2) not enough ponys to pull the skin off a rice pudding! Lol! This is all set to change though. ;)

    Fitting ASTs

    This was why I had some custom made nylon rear bushes made for me and BIGASH. I didn't have any originals and needed some asap. I've got 2 originals you can have Martin.

    incy-spiders Clio 182 turbo

    I've been going for the past 10+ years now mate so the only things I have to get used to is when they've resurfaced some of the track. Everything else remains the same. 8:15 on a TF day will be an interesting proposition as well. That's when luck really does need to be on your side, but that's...

    incy-spiders Clio 182 turbo

    Shame that. Always interested to see how much effort other drivers put in around the ring. Need to get back there myself and get the 8:15 in the bag. It'll happen. I guarantee it. :)

    You wanna try driving up the internal ramps on a ferry then mate in traffic!! Loads of slipping the clutch, followed by everyone thinking your a dick and showing off when you lift off and all they hear is the turbo chatter!! 2 bar of boost made it, erm, loud! Flol

    ride hight for track and handling

    My cup measures in at 568 front and 570 rear. That's the distance between the top of the arch and the ground. Measured on 16's so a tad less on the 15's. But it as has already been said, it's not that simple. For instance, if you run a standard 1*2 you'll destroy the roll centres and it will...

    4 or 6 pad? 6 pad are way more user friendly than the on/off 4 pad. Cost more though unfortunately.

    Differences between F4R736 and F4R740

    Compression ratio is lower on the 740 for definite (9.8:1 f4r736 >11:1 f4r 736) The cylinder head will be the same mate, but the shapes of the ports will be different, and potentially their position. All the cylinder heads are from the same casting you see. Cams will be not quite so wild either...

    Strange rev counter, speedo and temp gauge, with vid

    How have you relocated your fuse box and ecu (as in extended any wires)? Is it the fuse box in the engine bay you've relocated?
