rage bait...

Still not received the replacement gaz shocks but the "bodge" is working perfectly tbh. I "adjusted" the rear ride height after a few miles use. Loving how it rides now. Took it for a run out to Hereford to a little Sunday morning coffee meet up. Had a very spirited drive home.... alignment and...

forge sell direct, should have gone to them wouldn't give Ktec the steam off my piss

🤷‍♂️

Ended up getting into an impromptu cleaning session on the car. I'm not too prissy with it, I hate cleaning cars and through the winter I do just smash it through the local scratch and spin. This is followed by a spring time touch up and correction with a polisher. Took it to the local car wash...

have you got any pics? dont want to get caught short if one was to snap and would prefer to have some on the shelf

Email received from Racepsort........ refund issued, parts not available with no restock date 😭

Cheers, same guys it seems? 150 for the full set, not worth me worrying about tbh. Will probably wait until one snaps and swap the whole lot. Just keep them on the shelf till needed

found them and ordered through Racesport (y)

oh really? assumed not with cooksport shutting up shop. im fond of them so may have to buy some new ones just in case then

I still love my white wheels, though keeping them clean is a real pain in the ass. I've just given them a clean and ceramic coat to hopefully help. Whilst there I notice the plastic spigot rings had fractured so I've ordered up some aluminium versions. Will likely loctite them to the wheels...

is there an actual date/time set for the announcement, or is it just a case of when it leaks?

The car drives amazingly in comparison to how it was. I didn't even think it was bad! Loads soother and soaks up the shitty roads nicely. Even took it for a blast on the M50, noisy but will sit at 70mph with little stress (y) Will give it some more use then get everything aligned

id see what codes it gives back and go from there, but id defo not be putting any load on it, just light cruising

might of missed it in the thread, are you slapping this setup on the current engine and sending it?

are you running it with boost too? or fitted but with the boost pipes off? has it got an ecu on with at least a turbo base map?

Superbowl tonight, I'm told they are dropping the news during the half time show 🤷‍♂️

Finally got around to doing the battery relocation. Renault have left a nice route to get the cable in to the boot. Found a half decent bracket on ebay and went at it. Only major issue was the battery monitoring system for the smart charging setup but got around that. Now I've got bags of room...

Insurance time again. Not as cheap as usual but adding in the engine swap bumped it a little. Still through Lancaster insurance as a broker. Mods declared, SDPC, 5k miles and 2 x sp30s for £144. I did try a few others, tried that new custodian insurance but they came in at nearly double

I did indeed. Though i haven't condemned it yet Initially on fitting it seemed to have the incorrect software and wouldn't work with the car. I have since pulled the data from it and re flashed the correct "RS" data to it, I just need a dry few days and some spare time to try it. so could...

I actually thought of doings similar if mine started to slip, one on top and one on the bottom, to clean/flush it all out with brake cleaner

fit 172 injectors and get a map at efi parts (y)

great bit of kit, very dangerous if you get it wrong though. id be tempted to swap just the tcu to start with on your original box, rather than going mad with the whole hog. Reno link will allow you to recalibrate it. Really no need if you cant feel or see the clutch slip (if it was even there...

the check antipollution error is related to so many things. Did you get a proper in depth diagnosis before hand? also the diag can tell you the thickness of your current clutch disks. Thickness is also only part of the issue, if one is contaminated it can also slip but still be full thickness...

I will try, barrels have been heavily coated in ceramic wax to try and keep them that colour.
