rofl at where's wally in the bobble hat just stood about most of the time :)

12.3@117 for me with boost on r888's never taken anything else up the strip, standard Williams does around 14.5-15 seconds, valver around 15.5-16 seconds. not really up on the mk2's

vibratechnics for track car perhaps, but on the daily sack that right off imo

oh and powerflex for the dogbone works well, just bosh the old bushes out the a hammer and the new ones slot straight in, easy as pie. 2 bolts to remove and refit it

if the cars a phase 2 it'll be a twisted dogbone and its the cheapest and simplest thing to swap to check if the issues clear. if it doesn't then the top gearbox mount under the battery tray or the top engine mount on the cam belt side could be shagged too

Jack no they are bolt through eibach ones, I have longer adonised TPi bolts. works fine :) I will post pictures as soon as its all fitted and let you know mate, if my tyres land should be over the weekend oh for info I have fitted 195/45 R16 Toyo Proxies T1R's to the cup turinis, so 172 cup...

I'm on 10mm rear, 15mm front and standard camber. About to fit cup Turinis and sportlines, so I'll let you know how I get on. Same setup but cooksports and Williams wheels the rears scrubbed a bit when car was laden or undulating road surface. But the Willy wheels were lower offset so hoping...

I use mine daily, 12 mile each way commute, I can pick to either trundle down an a-road or add 3 miles for the 'scenic' route (read thrash it round some awesome back lanes) never mind worrying if the car can do the mileage, the 182 was built for exactly this kind of commute, its not mega comfy...

might help if people put cup or trophy offset for the turinis too?

only if you map it after painting them that is

its a man retreat, no room for polishing b****cks, engines and oil take pride of place :drunk:

love that pic, Lesley doing her best amongst all the crap and oil all over the place :)

as above, half a litre on track is sod all. if the engine seems fine then just look after it like you have been and it'll see another 150k! lol!

try as I might, I really just don't 'get' Vauxhalls at all which is weird as my dad's always had them, maybe that's why? best I can say is it looks a clean enough example :)

lol, clutch alignment fail ;) its a tricky job if you don't get it right.

as above, sounds a decent enough deal, labour for removal and fitting is a killer on clutches/boxes

ai I know George said it was basically scrap! come on Georgie, finger out and get it sorted ;)

top job :) so is that the teething issues all sorted George? or still go issues with the link pipe?

Lol! Sorry, didn't mean to alarm, tbh sounds a solid one! :)

as above, they fit straight on a mk 1 clio, not a mk 2 ;)

my first ever car, 1.4RT clio, I did similar thing, rocked up, paid up, bloke disappeared and car was a total fecking shed. blew up 2 weeks later. then as you do when your young, didn't learn and went to Gateshead for the next one, 1.8 16v Clio, and same again, blew up after a month that time...

welcome and tbh, for 700 quid who can argue, good buy even if it does pop in a week :)

rofl, epic read! and tbh I was expecting the car to be a total rotter, few quid tho and she'll be reet! Welcome Ben from Torquay from Ben in Belper :)

i'm planning to do this for the mk1 next year, good work :)

oh I know you didn't build it chap, I was just surprised that someone would pay a lot of cash to build a track car and not put a diff in from the off!

don't get me wrong, I've spent I reckon 20k on the turbo, but it was built up as a road car that I started doing a few track days in, realised it doesn't cut the mustard, so soon as I bought the new project track car first thing I've bought after the car is a quaiffe,lol!

what? the phase 1 had 28k slung at it and didn't have a diff before new owner added one?!!

sorn'd and unfortunately in bits too mate, sold the parts off it to pay for the new track toy with a view to returning it to standard interior

lol, hark at you vulture boy ;) yeah I couldn't separate it from the plate, its been on it 10 years I think now inc previous owner

bloody hell I was not ready for that, I have always thought the new clio 4 RS looked utterly gash, but in white, on those proper alloys (not like the shite on the megane in the pic) it looks.....dare I say it.......fecking wonderful
