Can I just get this out there fellas no parts are for sale at the moment and if or when that they are I'd put them in the for sale section. Should have thought this through with all the CS vultures, lol.
Yep got somewhere to store it safely, as you say the £1000-15000 wouldn't make much of a dent in our deposit goal at the minute. Just don't want it be sat there rusting away not being used next year then have to sell it anyway to make up our deposit or pay solicitor fees or what have you.
In a dilemma on whether to sell or store the FF for the winter. The car wont be used now until April/May next year but I plan on moving it on anyway late next year for a new project. If I store I'd probably only do 2 track days then move it on anyway. Thing is we're saving for a house deposit so...
If you delete the compensator it will just go to 50/50 or more rear bias than with the compensator as there's nothing regulating the bias from the M/C, you'd need a bias valve fitting for sure. It would just be like pulling the ABS fuse on the 182 which isn't ideal TBH as the rears lock up first.
I run 2 sets of 15s. 1 set with Rainsport 3's for driving to and from the track and when it pissing down with lots of standing water, the other is wrapped in r888s and these can be used in all conditions apart from it pissing down with standing water.
Set of RS3 of eBay is something daft like...
CL5+ pads on HC discs, can't get it to kick in, in the dry even on road tyres. Is this normal?
Brakes feel OK coefficient wise and stop pretty well and are all wearing evenly it just feels like the system is lacking pressure, pedal feels spongy as well but has been bled many, many times.
They are an improvement in terms of bring the stick closer to you once bent back slightly, really you need a Yanoo stiff kit as in my experience the shift becomes even more sloppy than the OE set-up, and a missed gear is always a shift away.
Thanks to @Archtronics for the above site. Just ordered a Dell inspiron 15 3000 6GB RAM, 1TB, i3 processor with 3 year dell warranty for £300.

Done Australia then jibbed it off! Only do time trail and online, the latter though is terribly unreliable and crashes all the time. Great game when on track racing but all the bits in-between are just laborious.
ATE 24.0741-1129.1 is what's stamped on the one I got from Renault parts direct and here it is on Amazon for £30...

That eBay one will 100% not work. The OE Renault part no is 6000073527 and is £115 from Renault parts direct but I sourced a blueprint OE spec one for peanuts.
Leave it with me...
Get the car mechanically sound then all that is really needed is track tyres, track orientated front pads, decent fluid and you're ready to go. Spend money on track time and build the mods as you go. Power is the last thing you should worry about, just lighten further for more power to weight.
Injectors don't always throw up a eml, oh and don't rely on a snapon to diagnose your issue. Been there done that spend 100s. If it's not hesitating then doubt it's an injector tbh, if it's been run on premium fuel then you've put in cheap supermarket/standard 95ron fuel that should be the issue.
Was gonna say that I've just fitted them with new dampers and the ride quality is great on the road, much better than the old cup springs and dampers. Maybe try replacing the dampers and see how it feels then and if you're still not happy get the Eibach springs.
