Apples against oranges..... And unless you really need one dont bother

My 5 point Willans harnesses did come with a sheet showing the recommeded angle for the shoulder straps

If you are towing a car trailer with a van, would you need to do yet another test if the combined gross weight of both was more than 3.5t? Its something I really need to get done

Yep. Oh and its not an FIA cage, it specially made. Will get some pics taken soon hopefully

Full set of formed plastic windows arrived today Hopefully make some good progress after the event this weekend

I know its completely up to him, and if he had the parts already then fair enough. But is there actually going to be any performance difference between having ITB's in this application over a sufficiently large single body? If nothing else though, is it easier to make a decent plenum if you...

Regarding Ben's engine, I too was wondering why the ITB's and Charger, because as to my thinking all you will end up is an isolated runner plenum anyway.

Got all that... You dont need a different subframe You dont need different mounts You dont need a different ECU You can fabricate the lever and linkage if you are handy, or easy to buy If you can change a gearbox you can fit a sequential You can use a standard clutch

It's something we will look at but im fairly sure it will be ok as it is. Decent area to do something with if needed anyway

Custom as far as being on a clio goes. They are Bilstein inserts, not sure about the cases

Mounts you dont need, drive shafts are expensive but available, gear leaver you can buy or fabricate, flat shift you can get third party quite cheap. I would hate to use it on a road car :)

How much?

No

Went and fetched the car back today, not given it a good look over yet as it was dark and are busy getting other cars ready till next week. Also dont want to post many pictures till I can get it tidied up and get some more primer on it. It has had: Weld in cage made and fitted with...

Untill you end up upside down in a hedge on fire...

Not sure about the dogbone, but the ARB ones are a PITA. There is also evidence that you shouldnt really use the one for the dogbone anyway, as it needs the flex

Because it's their track, they can do pretty much what they want. What is there reasons for doing it anyway? If I had to guess off the top of my head I would say insurance reasons, pretty much like most forms of motorsport these days

They do wishbone bushes and dogbone mount bushes

Toy suspension :p

So in several ways you have managed to lower the resale value of your car... congratulations

Really? Thats good to know. Will probably end up DIYing one up in the end

No, because you wouldnt beable to get to the gudgeon pin holding the piston onto the rod. Taking the rods off the crank isnt too bad anyway

Amen to that :)

try www.oreca.fr (without the bracket in it :))

Its a phase 2 front end so no :p It could be worth sending an email to oreca (www.oreca.fr), they might have some. They are like the French version of Demon Tweeks :) They have a browsable catalogue on their website aswell

Re: 50% complete 172RWD! love the fabrication. Proper job there :)

Whiteline dont do a front ARB as far as I know. It is something I have been looking at as I can see the stupid bendy bit on the standard bar being a pain when we got to fit the engine. Need to find some kind of Grp A blade type universal one for the front

Yeah at Swinderby, that was a really good result for you :) Not sure what events we will be doing this year, need to start going futher afield as we seem to be running out of venues round here. Not sure when it will be finished, first quarter next year I hope. People keep saying we...

Car has been in Wales for a few weeks, and hopefully we are going to pick it up next week. Should have some good pics to post then :)

For a road car I just dont think it is worth it. Insurance will be sky high
