The Speedo has stopped on my T Reg 1.4 8v Clio. It would go all retarded up and down with me changing speed and then finally stopped all together!!
I know its not a 'Sport' Model, but i'm sure there's some knowledgeable guys and gals here who may know of the cause(s).
Cheers
You gave me some hazards i gave you a quick flash. Think your from Hertford, The chap i had an enthusiastic drive with one time.
i was in the White S2 Rallye.
Lol The Quaife is great. i had my box rebuilt too whilst having it fitted. wish i had got lightened and balanced flywheel and 6 paddle clutch at same time, but will do that this year hopefully.
I wouldn't be so sure Vicky. Mine geot off the line really well last year but i got pipped by bigger...
My best time last year was against a Red corvette Sting ray. i got a 14.6 last year. but i was no where near full power (over fuelling due to faulty TPS) and shite tyres.
I got a nice set of Toyo R1R's and a Quaife LSD, so when i'm making full power again i hope to crack 13's. But we'll see...
Thread from the Dead. lol
Vicky, this was a good day!! Looking forward to doing it again this year. Hopefully run little bit more power and bit lighter too. We'll have to have a go against each other for sh*ts and giggles.
its not bad, when its running full power. Cam timings out at the moment.
There's plenty places in hertford, Ware, Hoddesdon, Welwyn, but depends what people actually want from the meet. Might be worth just organising it at Ace Cafe french night or something.

The guys are bloody brilliant. they are the one who mapped my TB'd Cammed Rallye on Omex and many other different cars from Formula 3000 to Old skoda's with carbs to Turbo monster 400bhp 106 Gti's.
you 125 is hugely optimistic. i was passenger in the Red 106 Gti Turbo. 280bhp at the wheels stripped the f#ck out too, and it put the power down extremely well and we got 120-125 at the end of the straight going into the bend.so im not sure your being truthful.
lol no worries mate. yea i was iwith my mate Luke (LukeM on here) he has a 197 F1 with Remap and Piper exhaust, not sure if he got a timed run.
Oh i know you had few people round your car, is a sexy bit of machinery mate.
Yea def have a go, see how we compare.
i did say to you at the beginning of the day when me an my mate with the yellow 197 came to have a chat, but ya didnt really seem to interested in having a friendly chat. maybe i took that the wrong way though. No bother though.
i would have gone on the left hand lane if need be.
Haha. was it the guy at the start line?? he was funny lol
You get a time you was pleased with??
Bodies sound awesome.
Spec at moment is
GSXR 1000 Throttle bodies,
280 degree Cat Cam 4600645,
QEP Head with machine flowed and angled valve seats and valves, Janspeed Exhaust Manifold,
OMP Grp A...
Def have to do it next time. if ya at FCS then have to come have a chat with ya. i only had one video of myself someone else took when i raced the yellow MR2. i did mostly untimed runs many more runs that way.
Thank you!! Got few body work bits to do and squeeze bit more power from the engine...
white rallye. only european rallyes had a yellow option i think.
i raced a blue escort mk1. that him?? i wooped that easy! lol
yea i spoke to him early in day and said it was 215bhp.
Vicky your car does look rather sexual that colour lol
i would have loved to have had a go up against ya. i...
lol ok.
His car looked so smart!! really did. i would have mine just like his if i ever got a 197. I thought i'm gonna race that defo, but when i got two opportunities he refused. Shame really, His missus would have prob had a go if i asked her. Her car looked Bloody good too!!
White 197 at North Weald market.
Was stripped out apparently cammed with 215bhp. also had Nos.
But pussied out twice against me in the Rallye going up the 1/4 mile Strip.
What size tyres and wheel are they??
Would a wider tyre on the wheel help you with the side wall issue???
fair bit of body roll going on from the pics, or is that just my dodgy eyes lol :-)
