There is an additional cam pulley locking cog with different offset for the dephaser pulley, the set on eBay for sale doesn't look to have it This is the part you need for a dephaser pulley My timing tools are out with another CS member at the moment, so I can't help you out this time

The advocult kit comes out of the rack and runs along the subframe Then along the front of the subframe where I've secured it properly Then the unnecessarily long hose loops up behind the rad fan and back down into a Tee piece for the PAS sensor, then into the pump, you can make out the...

I have the advocult kit fitted, pics in my project thread. Honest opinion, it's ok. Just that, not amazing. I put a rivnut in my subframe to hold the hose with a P clip as their solution of a big cable tie is a bit s**t. When I first fitted it it leaked on the PAS pump and only stopped when...

It doesn't fit, as above, it's for the wrong engine. Genuine tools or nothing, they don't lose value second hand so you might as well buy a set and either keep them for next time or sell them on when you're finished. If you ask nicely you might find someone local to you who will rent/loan...

Looking good mate, have you got any other 'while you're in there' jobs planned?

That's the dilemma, I'll definitely get at least the side painted. I do want to get it on track again but It's 99% a road car and I want it to look nice and be something I can be proud of at a meet/show. I wouldn't want to take it anywhere like that the way it is now

Had the day at home today so did a bit more with the car, when I was checking it over last Sunday I spotted a little split in the outer CV boot on the passenger side. I ordered a Febi one from partsinmotion during the week, which turned out to be as much use as tits on a fish, incorrect in...

I've got a Magnaflow sports cat welded into my milltek downpipe, the Magnaflow P/N is #59956. It passed an MOT fine and didn't have an issue with the secondary O2 sensor, however when Chris at EFI mapped it (500 miles post MOT) he turned off the post cat O2 just incase it flashed up and EML in...

Take it back to them and get them to sort it if they've removed them

Car looked great at Kenwick park when I was collecting my lodge keys, and when I followed you for a lap. I had similar scrubbing/buzzing noises, my front tyres have been eating the arch liners near the front bumper/wing fastening and the inside of the liner on the rear of the car so that might...

Car is booked in at AK Automotive https://www.facebook.com/share/14iTjvKKfWG/ for a check over next Wednesday, once it's been given the all clear and squared up I'll get it over to my mates powder coating place to get the scuffed wheels refurbed

Thinking back, my only gripe would be the sighting lap. I was towards the back of the third row of cars waiting to go out, so by the time I was actually on track the lead car was nowhere to be seen so I spent the sighting lap chasing the pack ahead of us trying to catch up, making the sighting...

Looks straight by eye, I've had the camber bolt out to make sure it wasn't bent with them having a slim shank. I'm going to remove the damper and check the rod isn't bent next time I'm home, but with the car on the drive and a digital angle finder on the disc the camber is the same both sides...

I don't think so mate, I have checked it, everything is paint penned and it all still lines up and it's on powerflex black series rack bushes which are pretty much solid.

Got home safely around 1400 which was nice, unpacked and made a start with the car Gave it a quick wash and most of the paint from the barrier came off with some IPA, went over the scratches with some 1500 wet and dry and some heavy cut compound on a DA, it's far from perfect but it's much...

I don't know what speed I would have hit the barrier at TBH, can't have been that fast as it's not much damage.

Despite my little off I had a good day, cheers to the organisers.. hopefully back for the next one and manage to keep the car on the track 👌

I've got Mintex racing MRM1801 pads and RBF600 fluid, I'm going to replace the front pads with some PBS ProRace and fit a new rear compensator.. along with all of the other bits that need replacing

Well that's not quite how I wanted my day to end, session one was slow with not knowing the track etc, session two felt a lot better but the front pads were smoking when I came in so sat out session three. Went out for session four and binned it on the second (I think) lap. Still not totally...

Unsurprisingly my car has decided to throw a fit this morning, went into limp mode with throttle position track A P0120 error.. Has anyone at CSF got a 172 throttle pedal in their spares box?

Is anyone else staying in one of the lodges at Kenwick park? I should be arriving there about 7/8pm Friday

I've had Philips ones in a previous halogen light car and they don't last long, Osrams last much longer

I had plans for a final weekend of CSF prep, fitting the stub axle spacers and rear camber shims, and checking the alignment. Managed to pull my back (recurring problem) during the week but thought I'd be alright to crack on today. Got the car jacked up and one rear wheel off and tweaked my...

I'd never double stack sandwich plates, you're asking for trouble. As has already been said, either buy a plate with a port for sensors, or fit them elsewhere - tap into the pressure switch for pressure and either the sump or oil cooler line pre-cooler for temp. I've got a mocal billet...

I've got a BTB on mine, it's well made, much nicer than the Ktec stealth I took off. With a cat and two silencers it's fairly quiet too. If there's a decent fabricator near you I'd definitely look into getting one made, that way it'll be a nice TIG welded job that fits the car properly rather...

I've used a Citroen C1 seatbelt buckle, depending on what seat/side mounts you've got you could re-use the OEM bucket and pretensioner Theres a few threads on here that say 3.3 ohm is the right resistors to get

Took the Clio to Pistonheads Sunday service this morning The Fairmont had a LS in it with a massive single turbo.

Thanks mate 👍

Yeah, the kits come with instructions and there's loads of how-to guides on YouTube.
