Evening all, I would like some opinions on this cylinder please. Its in a Peugeot EW10 motor. All the other bores are fine apart from this one, what are your opinions on what to do with it? I am thinking a hone or maybe a new liner? (I would rather not)

You have installed the camber shims correctly?

Does anyone know what size the fitting is on the right hand top of the standard radiator? It's not drilled out as standard but u assume it's used on some renault? I am after using that boss/fitting for a project on the 206.

looking good paul! Nice to see some familiar bits! impressive figures on the engine side, the 206 only made 170bhp after mapping on the same rollers! and that's on jenveys! Should be a good scrap at the weekend!

That as it may be, I would suggest there are more benefits to be gained from having a bucket seats and harness'? I would think that you will have a large decrease is spinal and whiplash typed injuries for the majority of the accidents/incidents that you will have out on track? I would also...

Thanks, We are genuinely very pleased that we have found some pace that we knew we had, but very annoyed that we were held up to such cost.

What suspension are you using? Those rates sound about right for the setup I used

More progress on the pug today, Got the car back from sw motorsport in Preston last night. Shawn and the guys pulled out all the stops to get the car back to me in time to get it finished for the northwest. The quality of the welding in immense, equal to the cage I had fitted by RED. Today...

Update time.... At the end of 2015 i decided to change from the Clio to a 206. The major reason for the change was the availability of rally specific parts for the 206, and this car came with a spec that i couldn't refuse! So the basic spec is as follows: -GTI 180 engine on Jenvey throttle...

Lost comp on all cylinders? If its lost it on a single then its possible its dropped a valve

To echo the advise already given mate, Don't bother with the 1600, fit the 2.0 engine. Here is why, It sounds as though your on a budget, so parts availability is going to be a big thing. There is much more choice for parts using the 2.0 as a base, from engines to suspension (think weight...

The clio S1600 has IRS

Yeah, I was going towards proflex end of the market I suppose
