    Hub nut, self locking?!

    That looks to me to be just the standard type of hub nut you get with most wheel bearings. The bits with cut the outs grips on to the thread of the driveshaft to stop them coming loose. The washer that spins on the nut is to spread the load across a larger area and allow the torque to applied to...

    Batesey's cup turbo

    Looks good mate! Not thought about rubbing back the paint to expose the Renaultsport writing on the inlet? It would just break up the black a bit. You could always paint it pink to match boost hoses?

    Your welcome pete!

    Can I bypass the...........

    Now you mention it, I'm pretty sure that James said something about a tilton being the only available/suitable bias valve other than what was run on the cup racers of course.

    Engine damage

    So when you say standard Renault map are we talking original ecu?

    EPAS on 172 Cup

    If your on a cup you need everything in that list except the alternator. You remove your p/steering pump and lines, the original column and the rack if your fitting a dci item. Then it's a case of fit the column, control box fitting and wiring in and rack assuming that's the option you choose...

    Can I bypass the...........

    I'm not to sure that the generic bias valves lower the brake pressure enough tbh. I'm pretty sure James looked into it.

    Can I bypass the...........

    No is the simple answer. If you bypass it you'll end up with full braking effort going to the rear. The compensator valve is set to a preset value to stop this happening.

    197 engine and box into 172

    If the TL4 box is anything like the JC5 it will only wear out the dog teeth on the gear (the expensive bit to replace) rather than wearing out the softer synchro ring teeth.

    197 engine and box into 172

    It'll rev even higher with a 197 box fitted mate.

    Need to go lighter!!

    To remove the tar strips you need a hot air gun and a scraper. After that you need thinners to remove the residue. When you say removed everything, are we talking standard seats as well and replaced with bucket seats? After that your into fibreglass panels, but they're not massively cheap in...

    sonny172cup "track car to race car project"

    It looks huge because what you can see in the picture is the body of the damper mate. They're actually inverted in the casing on the sportline 2's/5100. It's to reduce the flex to the bare minimum. Don't be fooled by the bullshit Martin! Lol!

    My RS2'd RB van

    I just bought the stiff shift mate, so it's whatever comes in that kit. I can't remember now as it was bought and fitted a few years ago now. Yanoo will be able to confirm what comes in the kit.

    My RS2'd RB van

    Sounds like a plan then mate. I've already got the Yanoo kit in the cup and really rate it tbh. I'm not sure that I'd swap to the pure shifter unless it really did feel substantially different/better

    My RS2'd RB van

    Add a Yanoo kit to the scenic one though and your moving in the right direction.

    My RS2'd RB van

    Yeah I can see what your saying mate. I'm quite fast moving my hands about due to my superhuman wanking abilities. Lol

    My RS2'd RB van

    Yeah it's working mate. I'll have to have a feel of yours (ooh er!) and see what I think to it. I don't dislike the original setup tbh.

    My RS2'd RB van

    Yeah you'd be surprised at just how much weight removal on these cars does make mate. I've upset a fair amount of exotica in what's essentially a stripped out cup.

    Trick Front Differential

    If you want a gripper let me know. I can get hold of them at very good prices.

    Kenny's Kup

    I'd say it's more important to keep the weight as low as possible. Sometimes you don't have much choice in terms of adding heavy items as they're a necessity. Unless you go full motorsport spec and source lightweight items of course, but that just adds time and ££££££'a to the job. Good of to...

    Fitting ASTs

    No it won't effect geometry mate, but fitting new rear beam bushes is a good idea. I'm yet to see a set that are knackered tbh, but uprating them is always worth doing for less compliant items. Regards the solid rear top bushes, I'd say they possibly make the damper do around 2-5% more of the...

    Fitting ASTs

    Not really mate, but it removes any compliance that you might get from the standard bushes. I was in a position where I could have some sets made up, so I did.

    Differences between F4R736 and F4R740

    Hi mate! It's not going to be for a couple of weeks/a month before I can get the engine to my new house for stripping as it's currently residing 65 miles away from where I currently live. If you can hold out a while you can have the brackets. Great news about the v2's as well. Pleased that...

    incy-spiders Clio 182 turbo

    2 reasons really mate. 1) cost! So f**king expensive to buy new and rare to see them come up secondhand. 2) not enough ponys to pull the skin off a rice pudding! Lol! This is all set to change though. ;)

    Fitting ASTs

    This was why I had some custom made nylon rear bushes made for me and BIGASH. I didn't have any originals and needed some asap. I've got 2 originals you can have Martin.
