Its sensing a door is open. Stick can clip on it and it will say which one is open.

Im looking at buying a milwaukee m12 inflator. Look like a good bit of kit.

My tungy gtt seemed to be going from super reliable to fix carb issues every drive. I had to clean idle jet before it left with new owner :LOL: he didnt have no issues typically but maybe i was a bit more switched on with it. In comparison my extra van on efi just runs well like efi cars do.

I dont use scan tool. Depends on what car your using it on, i usually do the mutiplex scan and select ecu thats relevant. Every model of ren seems to be slightly different in approach and whats available on the menus.

Whats the verdict on old engine dying, worn out or oil starvation?

Be prepared to fix the gtt a lot more than the clio mate thats my only thoughts on it.

Id get geared up with a laptop to suit, only need a cheapo. You will need to be in the ecu at some point

Does gen90 have onboard datalogging? Most half decent ecus have something. If not just watch live coolant temp data on laptop and check fan cuts in. Also most ecus say fan is active when its on.

Do some datalogging to see what temp the ecu is reporting, where fan is cutting in and out. Ive no idea how accurate ph1 oem temp gauge is, ph2 is not very accurate. Unfortunately id say the smaller rad and fan combo is the issue, ok for a short period in traffic but not good in longer stints...

Fan will be controlled by ecu as per oem. Shouldnt need an override if it works right, how hot does the coolant get in degrees? Is the fan adequate sized? I had a small spal one on my turbo trophy which worked ok on cooler days, but was no good on hot days and temp used to steadily creep up...

Sad to see its sold as great looking clio. Fighting the rust and old car stuff when using as a daily driver can get tedious and time consuming, these are more weekend/occasional use cars now. Keep us updated on the next project.

Send uch away for repair. Cheap enough, theres a company that repairs them on ebay.

New headlamps look spot on. Nice and fresh.

Big want for a twizy. If they had more useable range id have one on the drive right now with open wheels and rs f1 rep kit.

Discontinued. Looked all over for a full set a couple of years ago, ended up using a universal centre cap instead.

PM track time booked

Whats the plans regarding track time? Is it full day only or am/pm or full day like previous years.

Rpd or Kamracing. Oem not cheap now have pretty much doubled in price since i bought a pair a couple of month ago.

Brake cleaner all surfaces and make sure the sealant gushing out in excess out of all sides. Shine a torch on the outside to check there is no gaps.

Best off squirting the sealant into the grooves on the main cap when its torqued down until it comes out of the bottom and both sides.

Awesome update, new engine looks greatand great power figures. First build ive seen where P2V clearance has been measured, time consuming stuff on an f4r. Out of interest, to check with vvt engaged did you advance the inlet cam to copy full vvt engagement?

Ha its been a long day. On all the time every month. They only advertise via facebook so need to keep an eye on that. Back straight is long enough. Haswell had 145mph out of the Trophy there when he owned it 😆

Teesside autodrome track nights £45 for 3 hours. Get plenty of seat time and its big enough to do a shakedown. Next one is 17th April

Small update Give the interior a deep clean yesterday. The rubber floor mat had deep engrained muck in it which i could not shift. Anyway done a decent mix of apc and used a brush on a drill to really agitate the muck, and it came up spot on. Cleaned the leather on the steering wheel and seats...

Cheers mate. It is a quirky little thing everybody thinks ive chopped it with it being so rare in the uk.

Use a hot stainless stapler/plasric welding kit to repair your current bumper. The chinese spec ones on ebay are £15 ish and work excellent, i repaired my kangoo grill bracket recently with one and its solid. Something like this...

Thanks Nick. Be good to catch up soon, i might pop over to the ph meet in may if i have the clutch changed by then.

Sorry for the lack of updates on the build as not got round to it yet, but promise i will soon. April 2023 update Not touched the trophy since September last year. Ive been cranking the engine over occasionally by hand just incase instead of starting it up, as not keen on starting engines up...

Citric acid also works spot on, mix up a little bit with water and stick it in the solution for a couple of days and all rust is gone.

Updates Running in is done! Well as good as it gets. Last few miles done on good Friday, went to Croft for a look round as a javelin trackday was on, then had another ride up to Whitby. Kangoo got a bit of attention at Croft a few people were looking round it and head scratching:LOL: Macro...
