Inferno 182 with dark alloys on the main road through Callendar.

So my Twingo is sat in a shed and hasn't realy moved for years. I was building the car to continue rallying after I had sold my Puma but after 4 years I have fallen out of love with rallying due to the realisation that I won't be able to rally again because of the financial side of going stage...

I have the Twingo rally car booked to go in for mapping at efi in a few months time. The car basically has cat cams ktec manifold and exhaust. I have never had a car mapped as all my previous rally cars have had standard engines. I was going to give it a oil service, plugs were done less than a...

So after selling the scenic that I used to use and replacing it with a Biante I needed a car as the Biante is to nice to ruin. Set a budget of 1k back in September but found nothing I liked or wasn't fucked in some way. Looked at a puma as I have had a few but it was bodged beyond belief, a...

Hoping someone can help. I am going to be doing the fuel lines on the Twingo as they need to run on the inside of the car. I need a contractor for the fuel rail and the tank. Am I correct in thinking this is the correct one for both?

LY 182 with white speedlines Asda car park Thursday morning. Looked realy nice in the morning sun.

34 years ago today Henri Toivonen lost his life on the road from Corte to Taverna on the Tour de Corse. Toivonen and American co-driver Sergio Cresto died when their Lancia Delta S4 failed to make a left-hander, went off the road and burst into flames. In the blink of an eye, one of – if not the...

Hope this is an OK place for this if not please move to a more relevant place. I am in need of someone to navigate on rallys and I didn't know if any of the Cs people fancied giving it ago. Looking to start once motorsport is up and running again with potentially first rally being Mull. I...

Where can you lose weight from the front end? Car is a Twingo 133 so not a clio but similar. Bonnet is all ready mostly done and it's a cup so no aircon and also has electric ps. Needs to remain road legal as its a rally car. Not looked but is there anything behind the bumpers that's not needed?

A while ago @massivewangers suggested a workshop day to help me out so I thought it was time I would ask the forum members to help if they can. I am not going to bore you with a sob story but a lot has gone on in my life the last few years hence the dream of building the Twingo has always been...

L Reg Clio Williams in front of a nice house in Sedgefield in Co Durham. Looked nice apart from a flat rear tyre.

Am I correct in thinking that the Twingo will be selective as the clio for its gearbox oil? I have a load of Rock Oil 75w80 left from a joblot a purchased ages ago. Would this be any good in the Twingo box? Also it's in a rally car so would it be an idea to run other stuff, recommendations...

I know it's not technically a Clio question but didn't know where else to post! I am struggling to find decent rear coilovers for the Twingo rally car so I was wondering if the rear Dampers are of similar size to a 172/182 as avalibility is straight off the shelf for the Clio where as nothing...

Just bored so though I would have a look online for some of my favourite videos. Mine is Peter Taylors Griburn stage. I know the local postie was clocked at 152mph in his 2.5 mk2 Escort but this was some going to break the stage record. Having driven the stage competitive and seeing over a...

OK so I really don't have a clue when it comes to wiring at all. I have an autolec master switch to put into the car before the car can pass its motorsport passport. I know it's for a Twingo 133 but I imagine it is similar to a Clio. I have the standard ecu. Any good advice or know of anyone...

Been looking at the proline internal brake line kit for the Twingo. Have any of you guys used there kits and what is there quality like? Also is there massive difference between using the kit that uses gromits and the bulkhead kit? Any info/help would be appreciated.

Am I correct in thinking that I can tow a car trailer with a car on aslong as the total weight is less than 3500kg on a B licence? Just looking at ways of transporting the rally car round next year. Thanks for any advice.

OK so the last few years I have done very little rallying and I have struggled to get a navigator when I have been able to do an event. I don't know if my lack of events puts people off but for Mull in 2016 I could not find anyone, luckily one of my son's wanted to give it a go. Surprisingly...

I am looking for advice on a rear coil overs set up for the rear of the rally car I am in the process of finishing . After something to be used on bumpy tarmac and that won't cost the earth. Not a fan of gaz and have used avo and bilstein on other cars. I need 172/182 fitment but its not for a...

Not been on the forum for quite a while but returning to maybe join up for some run outs later in the year and to gather info and looking for parts. I joined when I had a MK1 Clio 1.8 8v track car and then went on to buy a Twingo 133 cup that is now nothing like a standard 133 (cams...
