it was approx £2K for the mechanical work (james had a load of extras he wanted doing, hence why i say approx)

depends on the losses, and you can't 100% account for those IMO, too many variables (tyre pressure, wheel size, what gearboxoil it uses, how old the clutch is, what type of RR it is blah blah blah)

a very "cliosport friendly" answer there Martin, i like it

never seen a diff fail on a jc5 129, its normally the synchros

i'm not getting into guessing ben, opens up the usual stupid arguements its fooking quick though

look at the percentage gained before/after i never take a rr figure as gospel, thats what engine dynos are for, car is rapid, mission complete

well remember Renault salesman think the earth is square

i've no doubt made a mistake, and BenR will correct me ;)

its the point at which the cams become most efficient, "harmonics" and all that fancy stuff BenR bangs on about its just the design of the cam with the schricks we use it has the "kick" at around 3500rpm, again, just the design of the cams

vvt has NOTHING TO DO with the 5K kick!

VVT comes on at 1600rpm (ish) the 5K "kick" has nothing to do with the VVT

lol, i don't ever clean my car, before trax last year was the last time!

you can be quiet Irish! ;) fmp_, welcome to the world of renault!!! LOL

at least its not a special colour and doesn't need blending

its a £500 air filter, too expensive IMO rolling road was done at Silverstone (nothing to do with pipercross) but IMO they should've tested the filter on at least 5cars before claiming 13bhp

proper jobs

should look like this

it was a cup viper r-sport decat + full exhaust thats all he did a 14.0/1 on road tyres and a 13.9 on slicks

100-0 in 4sec is good enough for me!! weight is an issue, as is wheel type the PF stuff we use on the track demo car is awesome, but of course people don't like the downside of the dust

yep thats a breaker bar, but no use in this situation IMO, use an impact gun (like the one the RAC sell for removing wheel nuts) cost = £15ish from halfords

its not orbisoud, its made by another french company, but not that well known in the uk

this is the thing mate, there's no need for 4pots on a 172/182 IMO, but some people want them the Hispec kit is by no means on the same level as AP stuff, the AP kit we're going to have made will be a road caliper

seems odd?

use an impact gun, much easier

james, timO did a 13.9 on a std engine ;)

Hi spec 4 pot kit to fit std 280mm discs if £600 from us we're having AP develop a kit aswell

as i said, MikeT is "Lord of the Realm" he can do whatever he likes in his county

as long asthewheels aren't all smashed up, then it'll be fine i'd try and blag them into changing the clutch though
