I will grab a picture and post it up shortly.

Do it! The one i got via @imprezaworks is really nice, not that harsh. A little bit of vibration, but it goes after 1500rpm ish. Thank you for the kind words, appreciate it. We will get there in the end lol. I do have one question, are the top mounts supposed to sit flush against the strut...

Got the car back today from Kev at Armstrong. As soon as i got in i could tell the difference. The dog bone makes the throttle response immediate and the gear change has improved. I did take it for a little drive this evening to see whats what and yer there is a big difference lol. The...

Hmm OK. Why does it have to point in a certain direction? Is it to do with the fluid going into the caliper a certain way or something? Would it have a big effect on braking? Currently when i hit the brakes at moderate speed the back wants to come around.

Car is in with Kev at Armstrong today, just called to check on progress. He mentioned all the rear is done and the front is in pieces. He will need more time as i suspected so it will be a pickup on Wednesday morning. I asked Kev about the brakes and he did mention that the drivers side rear...

Really clean car :) The colour of the wheels is so nice!

Bit of a bummer Steve, hopefully it will be something cheap and easy.

Good to see a thread on here for you mate, get a Flickr account for the images.

It's bound to be door/window seals surely?

I have 197 cams in mine and there is no pops and bangs. Generally that is something that is mapped in or something is wrong with the timing. BTW i have a PMS exhaust on mine and its lovely bit of kit, can't recommend it enough. It is quiet tho, just a bit louder then OEM.

Yer i guess i didn't waste much time or any fuel etc. I don't want to say much about it tbh and cause any issues. Yer like i said sometimes these things happen for a reason so im going ahead with the suspension and maybe turbo later down the line. Again not going to say to much on here Steve...

More positive update today fixed my rear light! It was really bugging me as when i touched the brake the fog light was coming on the dash even when applying some throttle. If you saw my "Battery & Stop Light" thread you would see how bad the corrosion was. Ordered a replacement bulb holder and...

Well its been a bit of a roller coaster couple of days. I was all set to go and see the potential new car (Clio 200 with Meg engine and LSD box) and unfortunately received a message saying it has been sold :( To say im disappointed would be an understatement, i guess these things happen for a...

Awesome build, can't wait to see it finished.

It is, but onwards and upwards to better things...If this all comes together it will be awesome!

ATM i don't want to jinx it or give too much away so my lips are sealed. You will just see a new build thread Rojer's (insert car here) haha.

I think i may have an answer to my question, i have cancelled the suspension work for next week and i will be returning the majority of the parts i have purchased. The car will still go into the garage to sort a few odd jobs and i will get an MOT on it next week hopefully and then stick it up...

@182_steve It does actually drive on the road!! Only messing ;) Good luck make sure you get lots of vids!

Would be worth checking the top mounts and the springs.

Too much power mate, end up smashing it up haha

What was the demo car like? Is it laggy or quite progressive? When does the turbo come in?

Boost tomorrow whoop!

Had a quick look at Wiki and it says its the same engine in the Megane and in the Vel Satis.

Haha yes you are right, but in which shell is the question ;)

As above lol car looks great please do mine because im lazy and CBA. Are you on detailing world?

Around 8:30 this morning around junction 16 for M40 heading north/clockwise. Anyone from here?

Yer you are probably right lol, lets see how the car is when it comes back from the suspension work ha.

I want to do that as well, but don't really need it when the car is NA lol.

Hmm it's interesting you say this because i have a similar problem, i had all my brakes checked over and apparently they were all good so for now i am going with changing all the suspension bushes etc as they are probably all shot anyways. Did you rebuild them yourself or send them off?

The power steering normally wines anyways, i had mine replaced for a brand new one and still wined ha. So it could be that wining and the alternator that's fucked. Any other symptoms? Let us know how you get on.
