It can be too cool, it should have a thormostat that only lets oil round the rad when it gets to a certain temperature

It was originally 240bhp, but dont know what it does now as it's got a completely different bottom end. I wouldn't be too worried if I were you :) What have you done to yours, engine trouble?

I fail to see anywhere that you could possibly blame Renault for anything in this thread.

Brakes pipes have all been finished now. Piping at the front. And at the back. Wheel studs fitted to the front hubs, taken off the old car. And wheel spacers fitted front and back, again taken off the old car. Engine has had a bit of a clean; want to...

So the vents on the rotors should go against the direction of travel?

Forgot to take my camera today, so can only put up camera pics im afraid. Comprake calipers and rotors fitted to the front. Looking very nice, and the beginnings of piping them up with residual pressure valves. The brake pipes to the rear have been taken inside the car, and go...

Sleaford :)

Anyone on here?

I was marshelling there at the weekend. Saw a couple of clios about too, including a red 197 and a silver 172 on the recee

I can take one next time i'm working on the new car. During the week hopefully, or next week end at the latest. I don't think it's anything special, but ill have a look. What events are you doing?

We just have a large peice of plastic type stuff fitted under that area. Satisfys MSA regs anyway. If you want to be fancy you could make a kevlar type one. Technically they must be available, but sourcing that type of thing is a pain unless you can speak technical french :)

If you arnt wearing a helmet then you can get road sets (basically just can headphones)

Yeah I know! Noticed them last week, doh !

Ours is mounted on the cage behind the seats in the middle. It is either battery operated or with a feed from the car. Any system will do the job really, have a look in Tweeks or Rally Design etc, and it depends as always on how much you want to spend, from cheap ones that do the job to...

During the week the inside if of the shell has had a coat of paint too :)

Got a couple of boxes from Demon Tweeks (sorry for the rubbish pics) A couple of Cobra Imola S seats Brake bias valve Roof vent Bracket and master cylinder for the hydraulic handbrake Aerocatches for the bonnet Battery box Lifeline...

Yeah, got some plastic ones that will be fixed

you could use the new ball joint on the old wishbone

Thats what I thought, just noone ever seems to think I know what i'm talking about when i say stuff. Currently running a hydraulic rack with a Saxo electric pump. The speed sensor for the electric; what kind of signal is it?

Apart from the better feel, is there any reason why RS models use a hydraulic power steering setup instead of electric like the rest of the range? Considering the options for the new car, how easy would it be to wire up the electric power steering from a 1.2 into a car without a complete loom...

Spent the morning rubbing down and preparing the inside, and then it got a coat of white primer. Started to strip down the doors aswell. Removed the glass and electric window mechanisms, then set about it with the grinder. Took the middle of the inner skin off, and the other...

if they are e marked, and not marked 'for racing use only, 'for competition use only' and have legal tread depth they should be ok

All the best people in the world are called Ben... FACT!!

Ill have to take my 182 road car apart to see how it is plumbed in :)

I want to flock my dash... but finances are getting tight!!

Wheres that all going? In the spare wheel well? What do you think will be easiest, converting the existing system to a return type or the engine to a non return rail?

If you get in the gravel trap, you probably wont be getting out again :) http://www.madvideo.demon.co.uk/page21.htm is Rockingham in the wet. I was in the clio which spazzes out into the gravel trap

The Sadev sequential gearbox is down at SWR at the moment aswell, being 'ministered to

Wider wishbones, and the camber is adjusted back with different hole positions on the stuts I guess

You may be aware im putting the F7R based engine from my current car into a Mk2 shell. As it was on a Mk1 it had a high pressure motorsport fuel pump, a fuel rail with return to the tank and a PRV set to keep 3bar fuel pressure in the rail. Now when it goes into the Mk2 the stock pump...
