Post paint I had to get some new decals.
I appear to have slightly nudged the number 2 when fitting but its nigh on identical to the other side. Both passed Renault QC I am sure ..
Issue 195 - https://www.evo.co.uk/gallery/news/evonews/292081/evo_magazine_may_2014_best_hot_hatchbacks_ever.html
I don’t recall the trophy number but the GT Turbo was at the time a Renault owned car
I think I can find some time in the corkscrew.
Also if I get the exit from Rainey curve wrong it ends up in a poor lap
I am not 100% confident that I am fast in turn 11 which leads onto the start / finish straight. 3rd doesnt feel right and 2nd too high in the revs.
The third brake light didnt work and looking at previous MOT hadnt for some time
I removed the cup spoiler via the 6 torx screws and then measured with the multimeter across the now disconnected connector - 12V.
Must be the light then. Fortunately I had pre-empted this and bought a new LCD...
Only been on for 20mins
1:44.6 in the wet ( dynamic ) and CBA to change the weather.
I think there is a heck of a lot of time to be gained in the dry with more experience
Finally the nearside light was frustrating me. It was cloudy as heck. I purchased a cheap "wipe" kit on Amazon and had a go. Nothing to lose really!
Its only gone and worked!
Before
What it should look like
After
I noticed when I purchased the car my knob was worn.
Thanks to a very helpful man over at https://diamond-performance.co.uk/ I recieved a new knob sticker.
I then put it into the very new, very high tech paint booth and lacquered it. Its currently in there drying now
Before
Decal applied...
I also washed the car to get rid of the salt from the run back from the bodyshop and all the bodyshop dust etc.
Its a very photgenic car but dont be under any illusion. There are marks on a lot of the panels. Its not perfect by a long way
I have had a busy day!
I found some spare part treasure including :
1) TDC sensor
2) HT leads
3) Coilpack
Guess that should save me having to invest in these as apparently these were changed over 10mo ago
I am not sure what the part that resembles a kazoo is ( top , right ) though?
Almost live injector resistance results are in.
( from gearbox to offside )
Inj1 15.9
Inj2 16.4
Inj3 16.4
Inj4 15.8
All there , or thereabouts. They look cosmetically in ok condition.
Must be o2 or TDC then at a guess.
Plugs and leads were done around 1000mi ago 👍
Should be able to rule those out now.
TDC was done years back
O2 sensor I have no records of a change
Injectors as above
