Bomber's Reliable Savage Supercharged Snorting Slut of a Ph1

[bomber]

Lol, that thankfully isn't me

This is the little hole causing all the problems, hopefully.

New fixing bolted through

And a quick lick of paint later, back on it goes.

And fingers crossed, as of Wednesday evening there should be three boosted renaults living on the drive way. Boooooooooost

 

[Silent_Scone]

three :O

 

[bomber]

Van is one of them

 

[The Boosh!]

I feel a thread title change coming up.

"Bombers shitty ph1 that always breaks"

 

[bomber]

It's never broken, just not always working. You saw how fun it is, I love it even when it's not perfect

 

[The Boosh!]

Yeh it is pretty savage.

Glad you think you've fixed it anyway mate

 

[Gray]

I know what's coooooming... I know what's coooooming... I know what's coooooming...

 

[Gray]

I don't know where that hole has come from on you're oil breather?!

Won't the bolt foul the rubber seal when you refit?!

 

[bomber]

They all have them, all I know is I don't need it. Ive put it all back together tonight, no binding from the bolt on the rubber seal, must be close though!

Can't wait for weds, 2 hour drive home in it :-D pure comfort at last

 

[kevin_172]

ok im exhausted now bomber.... just gone from pg1 - pg67! can i have your car now? epic epic epic read though!

 

[msm]

Any new videos of the beast!?

 

[Jonny1*2]

isn't that hole there to do something though Dave? On the 182 its there, but obviously the hugh hole next to it isn't. Presumably it's a presure release thing?

 

[Adey.]

It's part of the oil breather setup, but now with boost it pressurises the rocker cover, I sealed mine and did 150+ miles at mallory with no sign of oil blowing out the back. It can still vent via the catch tank if it starts getting blow by

 

[Gray]

I am pretty sure my PH-1 didn't have that little hole?! :S

meeeeh, never mind... if it sorts the problem... jobs a good en'

 

[Silent_Scone]

No but it's got a much bigger one now iirc R.I.P.

 

[Gray]

ooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww....


</3


LOL

 

[bomber]

no videos im afraid, i took the camera to Bedford but forgot the battery! doh!!

sideways danny did ask ages ago whether it had been sealed, and he's been playing with SC clio's longer than most on here.

are you sure Gray? if you hadnt done that silly thing of selling it we could have looked pmsl Mike

will get it started on the weekend and see if its fixed, fancy that highnam car show on sunday ade? could bring the woman

 

[Adey.]

That this weekend is it? Yeah might aswell I'll ask her later

 

[bomber]

yep, its on sat and sun. i was going to prob go on sunday as got a few things to do on saturday, like see how far out the emissions are on the MOT with no lambda lol

 

[Silent_Scone]

ah it'll be fine LOL

Just get the biatch spanking hot

 

[JonnyClio]

Bomber, i'm guessing you do all of the work on your car yourself... I'm just wondering where you learnt how to do everything?

One day i'd love to build my own car, but currently I know nothing about engines.. Where would I start?
Cheers

Thanks very much Kevin, I'm sure you know the heartache when it goes wrong but when it's all working great, OMFG lol. And no, you cannot have it hah

ah it'll be fine LOL

Just get the biatch spanking hot

9am through town and 15 mile journey to get there, will add on some extra dual carriage way just to get try hotter. Fingers crossed

Jonny, I've been lucky enough to know a few people on here locally who are very helpful and know a hell of a lot. Burpspeed/Jay Payne and Adeyspec with everything mechanical and Matt@TDF for the electrical.

All I'll say is don't be afraid to have a go yourself, anything is possible so long as you have the right tools. read as much as you can online then have a go. I've got the welding equipment at work, so the cage was simple to do etc. I'll try most things except painting external panels, that can stay with the professionals lol

 

[Adey.]

its only nuts and bolts and theres plenty of people who can help if you get stuck

 

[Tony Hunter]

Coming to a town near you,be afraid.

 

[Jonny1*2]

lol. Isn't that the famous Tony from Youtube

 

[Tony Hunter]

Hai

 

[bomber]

Lol, painting small parts is my forte, couldn't do what you did Tony!

Dan, if your reading this, we need another photoshoot...

There is 680bhp and 835lb/ft torques sitting on our drive way as of tonight.

Emma "there's a blue shiney car sat on our drive that I'm scared of"

And

Me "do you like boost then?"
Emma "no, it freaks me the s**t out" lol

Fair enough... It's not something i'm looking to do right now but it's something i definitely want to do in a few years when it's affordable

It's good to know that you can learn everything without too much hassle and things like online guidance can actually be really helpful.. thanks bro

spent the morning at the MOT place i usually frequent, the emissions passed pretty easily but the lambda reading (funny enough) was a struggle. wet rags stuffed up the exhaust and we finally got it close enough to pass. actual MOT is next Saturday, handbrake cable, new plates, possibly 2 tyres, and god knows what else to pass it.

if it fails, next saturday will be the last time it ever see's a MOT test. on the way home today the red mist decended, i scared myself and i realised im going to kill meself or someone else at that rate. theres no need for it on the road.

I wouldnt bother with racing in tintops, TDT or anything, i simply cannot afford it. but quite fancy a go at hill climbing and sprints. jay mentioned it a while ago, and ive been reading up to see how legable a SC clio is lol.... fun and games eh.

and since we bought the Meggy 225 last week, i have become acustomed to leather and comfort, not coilovers and overfueling

not feeling the love this week
