Ok dude cheers . Another topic my mind is not made up on is topmounts , are you solid ? Adjustable solid ?

Good idea that , I'll look into it .. Have you any experience with camber bolts north loop ? Cheers

Yeah I thought about that but what are they like when loaded up with a slick tyre ? Are they up to the job ? Also how much camber can be had from them alone ? Cheers

hi guys . How are people achieving negative camber on the mk1 clios ?

No mate , can take a while for certain lifters to fill up and quieten down .

Love the build mate , however . You are living proof that track cars are so addictive . It started out well , then came the 888's , by that time I new it was only a matter of how long till the bodies and cams were purchased .. No such thing as a budget track build lol sterling job tho mate.. Love it

All done , new gear box , clutch and box oil . Went for the luk clutch in the end as I couldn't be arsed to wait till after the bank holiday weekend .. Took the box out of the bottom in the end , dropped the subframe on one side . Wasnt a bad job at all really , didn't touch the manifold...

Not sure whether to take the box out of the bottom or the top ? The whole subframe bolts spinning issue is worrying me .... ?

Who knocked the paint over lol ? Nice work dudes , you got a nice finish on. The wheels.

Throttle body issue ?

Doing it tomorrow at work ..

Ok guys that's cool , cheers . But my question still stands , are luk clutches that inferior in comparison ?
