Good work! Off to get some of that powder now! 😂

Very reasonable! I’d have had them if my fronts weren’t already away to be refurbished. Still waiting on the bill for those! 🥴 cheers mate, do PMS do a sport cat to suit a 182 mani and 172 cat back?

a bit too spendy for me probably but Ill have a wee look! Ill have to do something with the exhaust as this one is very heavy and I think the cat I’ve fitted will be holding it back a bit.

Update on how the car looks now! Headlights swapped to non xennon 1kg saved there. Rear Safety devices cage fitted! AST’s away to Cornering Force for rebuild. Bought a set of B14 bilstein for it to sit on for now! Rear Gaz will be going for rebuild shortly too! 182 manifold also fitted which...

would definitely expect fronts to go “off” before rears! What kind of temperature spread did you have over the tyre?

Are they the same compound of tyre front to back?

Worst I have a Clio V6 post ever... 👀😂 I jest. Just jealous!

2 trips haha!

😳😳😳 75 miles before this picture and the number plate was fully legible! 😂

Not that they help at this time of the year... 😳😂

Just rallyarmour generic ones off ebay! They suit it quite well I think!

Had mine 2 years come March! Love the car! Epic front end and quite predictable when it lets go. Not great on fuel if I’m honest but that’s not really why you buy a hot hatch! 😂 The newer car’s are quieter as they have a GPF fitted. They did change the suspension too. Very well equipped and...

Not that I know of, looking like its off the cards anyway. Roll centre kit is not legal in my class according to the MUK so irrelevant. Besides, that man above is right!

Whatever the holes in that position give me tbh! I don’t want to have to go too mental with chopping bits out here and there on the body so probably more than cup. There will be a bit of tweaking to get it right both sides once I get the car back together.

It’s not a gripper mate, it’s a Spanish diff.

No exaggeration, really quite narrow! 😳😂

Nothing against Mark but the guy I’m getting the diff from uses Nick for his box builds and it’s kinda in with the price so I’ll be sending it over to him. Yeah going to try and eek some more caster out of the arms.

Good progress! Yours is actually closer to whole than mine and I didn’t crash!! 🙈

The winter development continues... Some lower arm modifications that I naively thought I had came up with on my own until I spoke to one of our fellow competitors and he had already done it to his many years before. I then done a search on here after doing the fabrication and found it had...

What was his name?

That's what I thought...

You wanna see some scary evidence to the contrary?

I'd be very tempted to check all of those seat rails... That looks like pigeon s**t! Hope the cage is better! Great work on the rest of it though!

Exactly. But when you’ve gone to that extent (£2000 by the time you refresh a box with a gripper and new FD, £2000 on bodies, cams and mapping) then what’s £500 for a RC/Bump steer kit? 😂

Yep already been in touch with Mark regarding this setup but can’t pull the trigger until the regs are confirmed or shelved. While in my eyes this kit does not contravene any regulations the MUK have written in their Blur book the scrutineer’s and head of technical won’t allow them.

Got all the extra weight out I can at the minute. Pretty sure I can’t use light blanks due to it having to be road legal. Going to swap to non xennons and maybe a cup heater box and rear seat setup. I have a new set of wishbones planned but still waiting on the MSA to confirm or shelve the new...

Give me a shout if you need any info! Yep diff is on the cards but the finances aren’t plentiful due to a wedding looming in 2021. I’ll be happy enough to do another season without one, if the power and lightness upgrades this year let me better my PB’s I’ll be happy enough! If money grew on...

And now it’s in a 1000 bits! 😂 subframe off for new arms, hubs off for new bearings, new ARB bushes on both ends and gearbox coming out for a refresh also! Hopefully get the subframe powdercoated when it’s off just to neaten everything up! about 20kg’s of factory and aftermarket sound...

Doune Hillclimb September. The format for this event differs when the British Hillclimb guys visit in June and September, how it works is that the event is a 2 day affair with practice runs on Saturday and one practice on the Sunday followed by the 2 timed runs and also the 2 top 12 run offs...

Some updates on the last couple of events! Forrestburn August, second competitive weekend at this venue but it was definitely not my favourite! Saturday, rubbish day on well rubbered up/worn tyres meant I was getting nowhere. Temperatures were up in the 19-20 degree area which for this venue...
