Contact Fred at btm mate. He's the genius behind that exhaust system. If you look in his traders section, you'll see that he has designed and released a newer better version of what was already an awesome exhaust!

I run fk hub centric spacers on the front of mine with the 16" turinis. It rubs the inner arch on full lock and it also touches the bumper bracket slightly (even though its had the s**t knocked out of it!), but it is quite low tbh. I use it on track with the spacers and I've never experienced...

I would imagine they all wear Stetson hats and spurs on their boots as well mate! Proper cowboy way of doing things!

Yeah just a pain because there's not much room mate. Easily do able though with a bit of forethought.

I've end tested it for about 20 minutes - with no tax on the car! Lol! To fit the column with the lower half of the dash in place is, in short, a complete b*****d. I removed the motor and fitted the column, then refitted the motor. Not a nice job as there's next to f**k all room. Took about...

I've just kept my original rack when I converted to epas. It's just a case of removing the pipework and blanking them off. This is what James has done as well (BIGASH). With reference to the belt, you need a 5pk 847 to bypass the ps pump on the cup alternator setup. A big thanks to James for...

There's a place near me that does it - can't say how fast though! They are good though tbf

Holy s**t!! That's cheap for Renault!

Yes mate they are. Pita to get at some of them, but no real biggy.

On my v2's there's a bit of nylon that sits between the grub screw and the threads to stop the threads getting damaged.

Yes mate. It's certainly quicker than removing a standard seat!

Yes mate I can.

I have them installed in my car. Everything that comes in that kit is perfect for what your doing mate. It all needs welding anyway, so you can space the tabs to suit your seat spacing. When you install them, you need to drill the sill/tunnel and let the tube pass through. You weld the...

If you take it to an auto electrician, they will remove the blown link and rejoin the wire. I'd imagine that these are still ridiculously priced from Renault tbh mate.

I got some stickers made up that are a copy of the "cup 172" badge. Easier than messing about paying £30 for new badges!

They will naturally have some movement in them, but from personal experience, if it's more than 1.5mm they're fucked mate. I doubt it's the shafts causing a grumble through your clutch pedal as well. That'll more than likely be the clutch release bearing.

I run kw v2 on my track car. They're a real good allrounder for your requirements I would've thought. Downside to them is they ain't cheap.

There should be no play at all in the cv joint at the hub if the cv joint is fine. Lol at the "mine is in and out like a dirty great dildo" comment!

Try giving it a bash then mate. Use a soft hammer to do it though. Every one I've done before has had a clip though mate, but as you rightly say, there's nowhere to get down the joint.

I bought my recaro bucket seats direct from them. They're in Leicester. Real good company to deal with!

Look further inside the joint mate. There's a circlip about 1" down the the shaft, inside the joint. They are definitely not hammer off joints. Give it a good clean out inside the joint mate, you will see the circlip.

The cv joints are held on with a circlip mate. I use a set of needle nose pliers to get them off usually. They're a bit tricky at times, but once you get the hang of it they're easy enough.

It's the cv joint mate that dies. Yes it's the hub end where you want no play as well mate. If you've got no play in the cv joint you had replaced last year, get that swapped over. You can't buy the cv joints seperate for these cars which is a ball ache tbh (or you can actually, but I can't...

Recaro pole positions!! The most comfortable bucket seat you will ever find! I drive from the uk over to Germany in mine, and do the driving in one hit. The only time I stop is for fuel and the euro tunnel crossing. That's a 10hr + drive for me, and not once have they given me a numb arse or...

If you grab the shaft and pull it inwards and out wards, if it moves in/out at the wheel end (cv joint) then its knackered mate. Easiest way to tell I find.

It would certainly help in keeping geometry and steering angles more constant Tony.
