Re: Mk1 172 Hybrid Track Car Project Ordered the F4R timing tools from Renault earlier, as im putting the standard cams back in for now. Thought I may aswell buy my own tools if I keep swapping stuff, and a few people I know will probably want to lend them in the near future. Dont trust the...

My polycarb windows have seen better days, they came with alot of marring/light scratches as I got them second hand, but I know people who polish them with a PC to bring them back to life... Just wondering what you would recommend for polishing polycarbonate windows? Thanks!

Pug 406 2.0 16v gasket is the same, I got mine for a couple of quid from a factors and fits the 172 manifold/downpipe perfectly

I had a Manfrotto too, around £160's worth, I paid a bit less 2nd hand on eBay. Ive since sold it to Ian......by far the best one ive owned (had a few). Build quality is great, keep an eye on eBay for one if thats what you want go for! edit: youve already bought one, oh well. lol.

oh lol, you can only dream for now

How much do you want to spend....the most expensive time is the middle of summer, like around now unfortunately

there are loads of companies who do trackdays at oulton, I bet there is one nearly every day during the week

Nah you sold it to me and it went on mine when the car went lol... Unless you had two? I defo got mine off you though lol

you shouldnt have sold ur standard exhaust to me immi....could have put it back on lol

Few of my pics to save creating another thread if thats ok Jon.. This thing was quick! And unfortunately....clutch fail.

yeh I was the passenger in his car going down and back, wasnt me in the boot though lol

Which zetec did you see with someone in the boot? If it was the black it was indeed me in the boot, lol. The silver ITB's one is from up my way too though

I was there today snapping away......that gold engine bay was quite something, lol. Good selection of pics, did you see those people polising that escort (maybe) all day long, with the chrome hi-spec calipers?! Cant see that being driven, ever. lol.

"Do your bit for the planet, find an F7R and put it in the bin immediatley." ;) Looks like a good meet :rasp:
