you don't need to go above 7500pm with the right cams dry sump is nice, but not really needed! what spec you planning?

some of the s**t i've seen isn't! we'll disagree on this one! ;)

rods in my experience are fine for 8k rpm (as long as you use ARP's) some of the "uprated" rods are tat made in taiwan and worse than oe

i think its because the northern lot didn't understand the queens english, i'll have to learn more northern lingo "how do" and "otttt pot"

yeah get the entire rotating bottom end assembly checked/balanced (pulley, crank, rods, flywheel etc) what you wanting? 240bhp?

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project almost forgot mCiVXigrjjQ ;)

don't bother in other words! he did look after the engines for R-sport, why do you think i've got a load of spares knocking about! anyone need a dry sump kit? ;)

300mile round trip and 1 bloody photo of the dynacup! you northerners are crap! ;)

the chap i know (he ran ALL renaultsport engines for the uk, ie you had a clio cup or a formula renault, he looked after the motor) he says "no" that do you?

all mk2 clio top mounts are the same (part numbers differ, but they are the same)

fast in your opinion ;)

ah right got ya! i've got cup racer rears going on mine, hello sideways! :D

opposite? eh, i always say hard rear, soft front i was running the AST's with the front on min and the rear on max and it was better, but just not "there"

http://www.vibrationfree.co.uk/ are good have a word with the engine specialists on here, they'll recommend someone

i've driven both road, track and "special" (off fmp's time attack car)

i've found it does help the engine rev cleaner/quicker, as a mod on its own its a hell of a lot of work JUST for that, if its in bits though, why not!

the front is too hard, that's the problem, even with them backed right off the car just feels wrong, out of the 3 car's i've driven on track with them fitted they all had the same problem at anything approaching my normal speed i struggled to get the thing to turn in, the front end would just...

a rare agreement! LOL

no, but does he look like stevie wonder per chance?

as an off the shelf unit though the AST's aren't right compared to zee german stuff its almost like their R&D dept were like "that'll do" they could be awesome if the rates were better

no, just needs to be able to crank over

standard balanced item will be fine (get the entire bottom end done)

Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project any idea what your car weighs in at jord?

which wheel specialist you going to?

^good effort! see why i bang on about having a full aux kit fitted rather than just a belt!

that's in my opinion to suit my driving style, will be different for other people though!

i've been saying that since day 1!

60mm for a 182cup i don't rate AST's, KW's however are *****tastic

that will do over 200 i would say depending on cams i did 193 on 428's

they tried to make a computer game of jet boat racing and if i remember correctly they canned it because to make the speeds realistic made the game impossible!
