Sorry if i am late on this one but for anyone else Kineton Coatings are good! Off my GTST

Sounds good to me. I'll get the ol Saturn V out the garage this weekend and prepped.

Kind of sad considering aparently renault didn't need to advertise the Trophy and they all sold!

Ooo think i will be game for this.. see if i can buy some injectors between now and then crank up the boost a bit... :P

What were your before and after wheel figures?

I wouldn't worry about it too much mate. If your plugs were a little fouled. If it was slightly warmer then you may have lost a bit. Have you pulled the power off your car and reset the ecu to lose any adaptions? May not have adapted right to the new intake. Plus 146 is nice and healthy! Was...

Surely everyone is up for the F1 anyways ;)

Matt, My deposit has been sent :)

Yea I am still keen if other people are! Would be good to catch up :)

Everything still on for Monday? Repeat of what was going to be the last meet???

Think me and my friend Sam with his VR6 engined Mk2 may come down. Been 'tweaking' the skyline and want to see the results :) Sam wants to get a baseline on his freshly rebuilt VR6 after the drag racing 'ahem' incident... looks better now anyways.. hes done a great job!

I'm game! been a while! and i actually have a working clio so should probs take it out!

First drive of her for a while. They are awsome cars arn't they! Just had a proper grin on my face! I really hope I never have to sell her! That is all :)

Needs service and a few other bits, oil cooler and gauges are next on the agenda (and spraying new bumper!) . Well tbf I am not running mega power in it yet. only running 0.6 bar of boost. Map probably needs tweaking and what not. She is pretty lardy compared to the clio and is cira 250 bhp so...

Whoops just saw he posted on the forum anyway!! I was stuck in 14.8 the entire time! Had one s**t launch and a botched shift the rest were all 14.8.. Didn't matter what I did consistant!

Just to let you know it wasn't a full on gti-r was running a tuned NA engine rather than an SR20. Still good going tho! The ol clios really do hold their own. Renault did a stonking engine in our cars! on another note my friend in his VR6 golf span his big end bearing on cylinder 6 :( engine is...

No.... Useful gsf ... Snr bearings no new clips... I thought it was strange but they seemed very sure they didn't come with them! Haha no Tom still a vw engine..

I was trying my best to have the Trophy running but i am replacing wheel bearings and am having to wait for the C clips (some of mine had corroded badly) it will be the Skyline. Friend should be coming coming in a strange sounding mk2 golf... :P

I am game for this :) May have a mate coming along as well!

Dooo it! The real problem is once you go jap.... lol. Mind you 10K is good R33 GTR money..... And an RB26 is a hell of an engine out the box... SR20 needs some pennies to release the ponies if you get a fairly stock car. Its very easy to start spending lots of money on them... Any advice just...

New bushes have arrived :) Much more substantial! The collars are now 3.5mm thick on this thinner side and 6.5 on the thicker vs ~1mm on the old!

The new design now doesn't require any welding.. Also impossible to missalign! Check the powerflex website to see it!

Well i can't get pictures up just yet but just bought some new wishbones, the company has sent me a left and right, after telling me the part numbers were correct but i have two different ones. One with the balljoint slightly further forward by means of the inner hole being further back, this...

That link now has the new fitting instructions. No more welding it looks like! :)

I don't have the fitting instructions yet but looks like its more like their conventional design with two halfs of a bush being pushed in from either side.

Couldn't find a thread but just to let people know. I have been in contact with powerflex and they have redesigned the lowerwishbone bushes. http://www.powerflex.co.uk/product-details/Front+Lower+Wishbone+Bush/1241.html I know the fitting instructions are the old ones. Am getting a new set...

if you are asking this question i doubt you will do it in 2 hours. Removing the arm is undoing 5 bolts in total. 1 in each bush and two to the ball joint. Or you can drop the ball joint out of the hub. Then the ARB clamp bolt. Once its off you need some sort of press to get the bushes out...

I have been an idiot and totally forgot what order everything goes on on the forward bolt of lower wishbone. Is it from back to front (bolt head/subframe/bush/subframe/nut/spacer/tiebar/nyloc)? Its really the spacer/washer which i paid no attention to where it went! Cheers Ed

Yea, i would agree with the buy another car if you out and out acceleration. Not that it is not possible in a clio just will cost a lot of money! Hence my two! I love the clio and its awsome on track. But for the same money i could spend on the clio getting a 200bhp NA i could have 340 bhp + in...
