I’d like to put a ED turbo kit on the car over winter. Those of you who have turbo cars how do you manage the heat on track days? The cars just a fun weekend thing for me but would like to try and not kill it on a track day.
Where did you get the wiper blank from? I know people say you’ll miss not having a rear wiper but mines not worked in the 6 months I’ve owned it so I won’t miss what I don’t have.
Im in the process of trying to work out what seats to get for mine. After the last track day I was getting flung all...
So far not a single noise from shifter. Don’t know which of the three bits make the difference but I thought I’d do all of it before fitting.
Bearing came from Merlin motorsport search
NMB Spherical Bearing ABT12,
Just search diving weight for the lead shot, think that came from eBay, £20 for...
Little update from the last week. PMS shifter fitted, followed the advice on here. Fitted the new bearing to the turret, packed the linkage boot with heavy bearing grease and fitted the rod with lead shot. Bearing easy to do if it’s not in the car, and lead shot for anyone looking for it search...
Is that a lighten flywheel on a turbo car? Do you know what clutch is fitted? Also is there anything you’ve had to do to make it more reliable on track?
Sorry for all the questions.
Afternoon all,
I’ve got a rebuilt gearbox with a diff being fitted soon. Had planned on fitting a lightweight flywheel at the same time. Plans have changed a little and now planning on fitting an ED turbo kit over the winter. Would I be better off keeping the standard flywheel for the turbo...
While I’m off work helping the wife after the birth of our second child I took the chance to go and pick these up from another member. In my opinion the best looking wheels for a Clio 1*2. Hopefully get the tyres mounted over the next week and with the spacers and studs.
Wheels are et43 with 205...
20 years, or near enough I bought my first Clio sport, a silver phase 1, W744WTR. I had this for 2 years and loved every minute of it. The poor thing put up with all the abuse I threw at it and never gave me any grief. I sold it when I needed a lot of money spending on it, and have always missed...
Evening all. Does anyone on here do trips up and down the country who could pickup a gearbox from NorthLoop in Lichfield and bring it down to Haywards Heath in Sussex. Would pay whatever is needed would just rather someone picked it up rather than a courier. Failing that does anyone have any...
Afternoon all.
Has anyone fitted this? Just wondering how hard the job is, also did it make any difference to keeping the fluid cooler? Did a track day at brands and kept spitting fluid out. Have seen that redline do a power steering fluid with a higher temp rating so might try that.
Evening all. My cup which has 105k miles has a very sloppy gear change. I’ve fitted the brass bushes, is there anything else I can change to tighten it all up again?
Cheers
Thank you all. Is there any other bits worth doing while the gearbox is out? Will need to get it sent to Northloopcup to have it fitted and the gearbox refreshed at the same time.
Just incase anyone is looking for one I found an identical one to the Renault one on Amazon for £10. Only differences I could find were the wires shorted so you need to cut and join it to your old Renault lead and it doesn’t have the second wire that plugs into the loom. Works perfectly fine in...
Thank you all. Kev at Kam racing recommended 7kg front just wonted to make sure that wouldn’t be too soft. I’ve got no idea what’s on the car currently. Looks like the springs might be blue under all the dirt. Only had it for about a month and just working my way through getting bits sorted.
Evening all. Planning on ordering some BC DS over the next week. Those of you who do the odd track day have you gone 7 or 8 for your front springs? Also while I’m at it would a PMS arb compliment the coilovers?
