    Is that a Toyosports manifold? My flexis have gone and I'm looking at one at the minute. Heard if you dont get engine mounts then it knocks on the subframe. I'll also have to get it remapped which I think it needs anyway because the flat spot is insane. The car is going to look amazing man...

    Thanks for the reply, yeah I dont really want to spend £600 on a manifold, but Im pretty sure it has a KTec back box so It would be nice to marry it up. Cant find any from UK Performance on EBay, guess I'll have to just keep a look out.

    Ok I need some advice. The time has come to replace the manifold as the blowing has got to point where it pisses me off so much I need to replace it. Looking around the forums it seems people have bought a lot of Toyosports, but the general opinion is they're shite... and the rub on the...

    Exhaust Advice (Repair)

    Hi chaps, could do with a bit of advice regarding an exhaust. I have a pretty serious blow on mine (197 R27) and I'm looking to get it repaired. The flexi's pretty much fell apart in May and I've been putting it off since. I've heard welding can be a costly repair, so I think I might go down...

    Leaving the M60 towards Burnley/Blackburn. I was behind in my 197 but you slammed it into 4th and did one at about 120mph before I could take a proper look! :D

    Its getting there. Didn't really plan on spending this much money....but I've fallen in love with the car. Girlfriend isn't happy.. :D Here are the seals. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281602130810?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

    Did a couple small things today. Removed the CLIO badge from the back. I've seen a few done and prefer the cleaner look. (might get slated for it). Also added the rear quarter glass seals and bought some offical Renault mats as mine were proper grim. Its getting cleaner, but the seats &...

    Looks brill mate. Where are you getting the seats done? Mine look a bit worse for wear and could do with reupholstering and dipping.

    My blue 197

    I've just put some H&R springs on mine and it looks miles better. At the moment yours looks a little higher than mine, so maybe they're standard? But it has a nice stance as is. I'm actually thinking about getting some skirts and a front splitter like yours. Love the black/blue combo. :)

    So I changed the rear quarter glass seals today. Cleaning the glue off was pretty time consuming.... jesus. But they're on now and make the car look a lot tidier for £16 or whatever I paid for them. I also had a bash at fitting the new blasted inlet manifold. Need to find a way to stick the...

    I bought some rear quarter glass seals last week and plan on fitting them soon. Is this a window off jobby? Or can these be fitted without removing the glass? Thanks!

    Wow is that huge red dip at the start of the rev the flat spot?! Thats insane, mines pretty bad but for some reason doesn't happen every time. Got to get new rubber, and a reconditioned box in mine yet, so this is down the list but £350 seems worth it in the end. Thanks for the reply! :)

    Mind me asking how much they charge? I've got an awful flat spot on mine and I'm thinking about getting this done soon. Gotta ring its neck if I want it to shift. I'm also interested to see how much BHP its packing, or more accurately how much its lost. :(

    So, had a bit of work done. Thought I'd show some pictures. Went down to Midlands Renault to have the box swapped, there was a misunderstanding he thought I was supplying it, I thought he was ordering it in....sooo yeah. Nothing really much got done, but he diagnosed my steering issues and I've...

    Had my springs replaced today with a set from H&R. Turns out BOTH my front springs were snapped! Some other parts were damaged too which had to be replaced (forget the name) charged me £290. To be fair its taken him 7 hours (charged me for 5), and he had to order the replacement parts in today...

    Chris's Ultra red 197

    Looks like yours is in miles better condition than mine. I'm toying with the idea of removing the stickers (apart from the roof), I just dont have the balls. Some days I like them and some days I don't... Just afraid the paintwork underneath will show up and make the rest of the car look nasty...

    Had a free afternoon today, so decided If I could solve the clunking noise coming from the rear end. The diffuser was rattling, one side seemed loose and when I tried loosening it I sheered off. Good start... covered in rust and crap I ground the old bolt out stuck a new one in and tightened...

    Very nice work mate. I have #459, hopefully getting it back into the condition yours is in. :)

    Hey chaps, looks like my manifold flexi has completely deteriorated. Had a really quick look around and it looks like its a bit of a costly/time consuming thing to repair. Is it worth getting a new manifold of EBay and being done with it, or is it something to repair? Also I can hear a slight...

    Might need further help with something I've just remembered too. So messing around with the induction kit and noticed its in bad nick. Who ever has fitted it has had to dent & squash it to manipulate it to fit behind the battery. It actually sticks up so high its cut into the bonnet above & into...

    So while the weathers nice and the bank account is empty I thought Id do a little bit of tidying up. Took the seats out and had a really good tidy. Looks mint now, I also re-painted the centre console. I wanted to try and paint the gear stick surround, but when I saw the leather was stapled...

    So I took the F1 spoiler off today to see what the car looks like without it. Sadly I think I prefer it without....but I have two gaping holes in my boot... Does anyone on here own one of these? Just out of interest is the bend on the spoiler super harsh to the point it rubs on the rear brake...

    Thanks yeah I've seen Jack isn't taking orders right now, or thats what his site says. But I'll try and book it in as soon as hes back working. Yeah I originally went to Renault for a quote for a few things doing, they wanted £1000, Midlands Renault did it for almost a quarter of the...

    I've changed it to unlisted, lets see if that works. Its on my main channel so I dont want people to see it come up in their feeds. (Its totally unrelated to my older content). :D

    Here's one that's annoyed me for a long while, knocking & squeaking while moving the wheel from 12-9 o'clock. I had the ns ball joint and inner rack arm replaced while down at Midlands Renault about 2 or 3 months ago in the hope it would solve this issue. They needed doing anyway, but haven't...
