    I do love diamond white. I prefer it to a lot of the more modern shades of white. Diamond is a classic!

    AST rebuild

    Just spoke to Curtis about another matter. Not had a problem getting through to him on the office number 01242 236168 My Megane coilovers took about 5-6weeks but they were a custom order.

    Making good progress on the welding and you've done a great job on that seat you had off me. Are you still using the paint as well? Wish I'd have been able to store my blue pop somewhere. That was such a mint shell.

    Tom's Meg 225 - The Clio Replacement

    Got some professional photos done, nice to see it corners nice and flat, the suspension mods are obviously working. Wouldn't mind getting the R26 rear axle though with the extra rear ARB I haven't got now and I believe the R26 runs bigger bearings in the rear discs too which I suspect will last...

    TRACK TROPHY 381 – PROGRESS TO DATE

    Looks great! I do miss my Clio :cry: Hopefully I'll be able to go halves on another with a friend at some point as a dedicated track car, I need the sound of ITBs back in my life lol. I don't know how you have secured the solderless nipple on the throttle cable but I used epoxy on mine in...

    Tim's Forged LY R26

    Tbh 340-350 is my target. The biggest thing is more torque for me, it held back because of the standard rods. I can get steel rods for a very good price and keep the standard pistons. I'm also working on some cams that should give the same gains with a bit better spool and more top end than...

    Tim's Forged LY R26

    Looking at getting some bits for more power on mine over the winter. What power is the fuel system good for?

    The FRS has gone...

    Try the Milltek exhaust with the remote valve if you can get one for the RS3. I've heard one on a new S3 and it sounds lovely.

    ASTs are great. I'm running the DDP pistons which are the same technology as the DFV on Ohlins. I've got them set to soft and on the road it rides lovely, on track it feels plenty stiff enough which I assume is down to how the pistons work.

    Tom's Meg 225 - The Clio Replacement

    Went quite well at Donny, no mechanical issues. NS2R performed reasonably well, grip levels were reasonable and on a par with RSR. Wear was nice and even. Performance dropped off after a few laps but the drop off wasn't too sharp. I wouldn't mind a bit more power! 😂 I also drove the...

    Unusual tyre wear DZ03G?

    I had the same issue. Only one solution...Better suspension

    Another MCS. The track day toy.

    It was nice to meet you Dave. Had a great day! Weather was awesome, track never seemed too busy and the car performed faultlessly.

    Track Tyres - Feedback and Recommendations

    Tried out the NS2R on my Megane. I'm running the 120 track compound and so far so good, they wear well and are progressive when they start to go off. They don't suffer from shoulder wear like the RSR.

    Thanks chaps! @JamesBryan Weather is looking good for the weekend. I've got my boy with me, the rest of the family aren't coming so it'll mean juggling looking after him between me and my mate doing sessions. @Gray there's a few off here doing it, if you're that close then pop down. Be good to...

    Cub's Flamer - Supercharged, Cage etc

    Anglesey is quite an understeery track...apart from church :D seen a few people lose it there, especially RWD cars. Its great in the Clio, let the back end go out and keep it on the power. Another common one is people not slowing down enough going into Rocket Most spectacular incident has to...

    Kit's Ph1 172

    Roof lining doesn't save much weight, I'd take it out, remove the sound deadening and put it back in with some Velcro strips. It's horrible running without unless it's a track only car. I had a mk2 fiesta and the carpet in that was just felt so nice and light, it was the stuff underneath that...

    215/50 r15 dunlops dz03?

    8j wheels with a decent offset to avoid the struts, arch modifying required and/or arch extensions. Personally I wouldn't bother.
