So glad you found a solution Dan! You will want to slacken those off slightly don't need to be that tight.

I was just walking back to cathedral quarter where I'd parked mate.

Saw you going past bold lane car park. Numberplate started as TOM so must have been you Tommo?

I also have a trophy with koni rears and I wouldn't set them full soft, I have them set one turn back from full hard and the front sachs set to 20 clicks from soft and its pretty much spot on for the road. On track 25 clicks front, full hard on the rears.

Wasn't me mate unfortunately, never seem to get spotted haha!

You want the stiffer sidewall option mate ideally, the 83 is pretty soft I didn't really rate them in the dry. http://www.tyreleader.co.uk/car-tyres/michelin/pilot-sport-ps3/205-45-zr16-87w-63966

Yep same issues, coolant temp sensor.

Totally agree!! Carbon lorraine rc5+, minted M1155 and DS3000's are all FAR better alternatives, you get more noise but the performance is so much better well worth it.

I have had a full front end refresh (track rod ends and inners, rack mounts, new polybushed arb mounts, new wishbones/ball joints) and the car steering still seems to have a mind of its own on even ground and tramline quite badly (the tracking has been done twice). Starting to think its just how...

No spacers, tyres are federal 595 rsr all put on at the same time (only 1 month ago).

Recently had a full front end refresh completed including: New Wisbones Track Rod Ends Inner Tie rods Powerflex Inner and Outer ARB bushes Steering Rack Mounts Mark Fish Springs The car feels nice and tight but tends to want to pull to the left and at times bump steers to some degree over...

The black goes very well with the blue but for some reason the rear end of the fiesta seems to dwarf the 17" alloy.

Looks awesome Joe! Knew when I saw you last that you would soon be back in an M3. Guess you will take this to Europe? Will have to meet up again soon.

This was a great read! Massive amount of respect for doing most of the work yourself. How do you find the AST top mounts for road use?

Thanks for the comments everyone, black cars bumper does indeed need aligning and didnt get chance to clean it up aswell as he would have liked. Both cars are running federal 595 rsr tyres.

Finally got together for a drive with my mate and decided to take a few pictures, unfortunately it was getting on a bit on the light was fading. Location: Calk Abbey Country Park Cars: Clio 182 Trophy and Clio 182 FF Cup [/URL]7G0A3147 by Sam Bennett Photography, on Flickr[/IMG]...

One of the four bolts that holds the throttle body on?

Thanks Dan, the only thing is I dont get a humming noise (maybe a faint whine) any other time only with hard cornering. Seems to have got louder over time since I changed the gearbox oil as well.

I have a whine coming from the front which is most apparant on the left hand side when the car is driven spiritedly around right hand corners. How would I diagnose if it is a wheel bearing or a gearbox out job to get the diff bearings done? Thanks Sam

They do look nice and well priced to be fair would just like a little more information before I take a gamble. From searhcing on here no one seems to have them fitted.

Just wondered if anyone had purchaced KAM Racings new solid top mounts that look very similar in design to the AST's? http://www.kamracing.co.uk/car-tuning/renault/renault-clio-mk2/suspension/bushes-mounts/clio-mk2-kam-racing-adjustable-top-mount.html They allow 1 degree of castor and camber...

Posting this up for a friend who has a lovely silver Twingo 133 for sale, please follow this link: http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201403302923239?atmobcid=soc4 Just had a full service with the timing belt/water pumped done and a full alloy refurb. £5150 Thanks Sam

Trophy was probably mine, only there a couple of hours, weather could have been better but can't complain as it was free!

Thanks for the comments only had the trophy a couple of days and apart for the ergonomics of the car (ie. seating position, pedal position and the gearstick seems like its to far away), I love it just puts a smile on your face when you drive it. The s2000's engine was fantastic and the gear...

Thought I would quickly introduce myself on the forum. Quick History of my cars: Started with a 1.2 corsa six (no pics, whats the point) Quickly moved onto an white 08 corsa sri (with the 1.6t engine in) and was mapped at thorney motorsport with miltek and decat exhaust (ran 220bhp) and had...

I have ordered some new front dampers for my clio 200 cup which is a 59 plate and he had said that the part number for these I'd the same as the 197 cup is this correct? I know the car is before they changed the top mount, does anyone have any part numbers they can throw up? Thanks
