    Power Tool Perverts

    If your buying one impact gun, would buy the larger m18 gun as that will handle any of the heavy stuff you need to undo. You can get them on all the suspension components no worries with the right length socket. Do all the milwaukee gear come with 3 year warranty? My m12 die grinder is playing...

    Kangoo Compact (aka Racevan3)

    Done a few more bits to the engine yesterday. Started off with setting cam timing and torquing the pulleys/tensioners up. Tippex method ;) :LOL: Cambelt cover on, aux pulley torqued, top cover mocked up as still need the spacers for the studs. Inlet mocked up, need to drill and tap the end...

    Kangoo Compact (aka Racevan3)

    Small job done tonight after gym. The meg 250 inlet has a breather solenoid fitted which i dont have and is about a ton new. I wont be needing it as basically emissions crap as far as i can tell and i will be running a catch tank setup from the breather plate. Anyway tried sniffing out a 2nd...

    The old style mo6 in 5x108 and right offset are made of unobtanium for the meg, so much graft to get this set I even asked compomotive to make me a set and they fucked me off:LOL: Still fancy a set of r26r wheels to add to the collection

    Kangoo Compact (aka Racevan3)

    The two valves are mad, i thought it had been a f**k up when making the wheels initially, googled it to check it out and seems to be a rally thing. Another pic from the side Ive come to the conclusion with a good bit of power itll be for go and not for show :LOL: Seen quite a few modded Kangoo2...

    Nothing much happening with the Extra van at the moment, not touched it since Croft but will pull the engine out soon for more upgrades. All the cars are sorn for winter so its diesel power for now :LOL: Had the blue meg out to try on the comps at the weekend, so done a collage of all 3 sets...

    Kangoo Compact (aka Racevan3)

    Picked up a new set of wheels last weekend. Ive been sniffing around for a while for nice wheels and anything nice in 5x108 is like rocking horse poo to find. Story goes like this. Back in the day around 5 years ago i went to a TurboRenault rolling road day at RsTuning in Leeds and seen a nice...

    Kangoo Compact (aka Racevan3)

    I got my seats for a bargain £400, a good pair seem to be anywhere between £600-800 if you want a mint set. This set needed a clean with a wet vac and had to paint the inserts up. Dead easy to fit though, pm me if you need any advice (y)

    @VenomUK dead easy to fit fire me a pm if you want any advice. Bulkhead does limit leg room up front, my old 68reg one had it and struggled to get position right with stock seats.

    Update Bought a bargain pair of corsa d vxr recaro cs off ebay that needed some loving but priced very well. Give them a good wet vac and had to repaint the harness inserts as they were poorly painted arden blue. Prepped and painted in my fav bedliner paint;) Fitted Sat in the kitchen for a...

    Blue meg has been used a bit too. Had to pop down to Ipswich for an ebay purchase last weekend and give it a ride out. Drives so good, nice comfy recaros. Sat on cruise most of the journey 34mpg, 520 miles. Give it a good clean up when we got back Sorn until next year now weather has turned...

    Fast forward a couple of weeks later and go over to Croft to help fit a set of rear pads. Stuck my lid in again and paid for all afternoon as the weather was great. Handling is great with the quaife lsd and can really get on the power on low boost as no drama and really smooth. Its hard work to...

    Updates Extra van has been used quite a bit in the last few weeks. One of my mates was at Croft in his meg on bank hol Monday. He needed a 24mm spanner taking over so dropped it off as only 30 mins away from the house. Chucked my lid in and next thing ive paid for the last hour on track for a...

    Update, did not find much wrong with it when looking and no noise since. Afternoon session at Croft again today and o/s outer cv is knackered, so must have been that causing the knock.

    Kangoo Compact (aka Racevan3)

    Seen some inspiration the other day too. Turns out that they done a 1.2 turbo model on the current Kangoo in Aus, not sure if it was a one off from Renault as a demonstrator as no real info out there about it. Looks alright though, i reckon the newer clio 220 edc might fit and meg rs280 lump, if...

    Late one on the engine tonight as the new tappets turned up. Engine is a bitza, 250 head on R26 bottom end with wossner pistons and pec rods. Slipped a set of 172 cams in whilst cam cover was off, be rude not to ;) Not using vvt at the moment but stuck a fresh 172 dephaser and vvt solenoid...

    Started cleaning a few bits up on the engine. Cam cover, breather plate and a couple of other bits got a once over. Etch primed Bedliner paint ftw Oil filler cap looks a bit bright might need to tone it down a little :LOL: Planned to build engine up last week but was a lifter short. Start...

    Quaife atb

    Indeed its a strange one, ill probably have the engine and box out over winter and will arrange a once over/inspection, not sure who rebuilt it last time. Not ruling out cvs or mounts yet, i had a quick look earlier and my 1000 mile old vibratechnics rear mount is starting to delaminate so...

    Quaife atb

    Will inspect the driveshafts again and see if any play. They were in good nick when i looked at them a few weeks back when i had the gearbox off, but never say never. Will be disappointed if its showing issues already.

    Evening all Not clio related but same lsd so hope its ok to post. Give my Renault Extra a shakedown at Croft on Bank hol Monday, first time ive used it in anger really with the quaife lsd.
