The ratchet shouldn't move around without the clicking noise from the ratchet teeth. it's quire easy to remove in situ. There is a bolt onto a captive nut, this hold the ratchet mechanism in place. Remove the ball socket from one end of the pedal and the clutch cable. The ratchet unit will come...

Are you on Facebook ? There is a nav/co driver page. Also clithroe car club has a great membership many have done Mull and if you ask I'm sure you will find many willing. Good luck

I'll look out for you on Mull this year (if it runs) I missed it last year but did it before the last break in a Clio. Great car but I had a few issues which kept us back. I've done it 9 times and never had a clean run, always had problems which slowed us. Still that's Mull. i don't know where...

When I fitted mine I kept the standard surrounding and went to B&Q to get some good mastic/glue. You will have to wedge the window into place whilst the glue sets but it is the only way. Good luck it’s actually quite easy.

Navs are getting hard to come by. I am lucky for Mull I have a great Nav but he doesn't want to do single venue stuff. I would try other clubs near as ther must be some more sensible people who want to give it a go. There is a co-driver page on face book that might be worth a look.

I did Mull 2016 in a Clio. I used Spax . The rears were ok but the spring rates were far too hard. The car was jumping around like a kangaroo. I am about to buy progressive springs in an attempt to allow some more bump absorption and get some feel in the back end. I will keep the spring I have...

The re-shell has started. I am going to build a single venue car this time. Everything will be aimed at going quick around old airfields and chicane riddled racing circuits. All the old bits are ready to fit into the new Shell I just need to strip it and sort out the rear beam mounts.

Do you know the number of the car?

I was looking back over previous Mull results and came across this from 1996! Provisional Leaderboard after 3 Stages: Posn Driver/Co-Driver Car Mins:Secs 1 Callum Duffy/Hugh Duffy Ford Escort 24:16 2 Neil MacKinnon/Mike Stayte Subaru Legacy 25:31 3 James MacGillivray/Brian Kennedy Opel Corsa...

The Back box is actually quite high and doesn't cause a problem on Tarmac. We used 16" dunlops as I had 16" rims. In hindsight and an infusion of cash, 15" would be better. I have bought some post Mull and will fit them for the next event.

Well It's been a while and I think an update is due!! Mull 2016. Nearly a year has pasted since I got back from Mull and I thought I would give you a pen picture of the event. We put our entry in at 7am on the day they opened and were entry 101. It seems they days of unfilled entries are gone...

Hi I have done over 30 SV events plus 8 Mulls and in different cars. 4/rear/front wheel drive. I built a Clio 172 and did a couple of events in it. I can honestly say they are a great car straight out of the factory. My advice would be... Spend good money on the cage and seats, these keep you...

Some more pics of the car. Standard engine and box at the moment. Money and time were against me. Improvements will have to wait until next year. Spax adjustable suspension on Euro spec spring rates (circa 400lbs) Sassa cage (walked through log book scroot's checks) Motordrive Pro4 seats with...

Some pics of my 172 for this year's Mull.

Thanks everyone.

I am building my rally car and need to wire in a battery master cut off switch which in turn will be next to a ignition switch and starter button. I have to replace my ignition barrel with the starter button and I cannot seem to find what the different wires do and their colour. There was a...

Does any one out there know the colour of the ignition wires and what it they relate to? I cannot find the thread on here again. Many thanks.

I have a build on going. Mull this year is the target. Cage going in this week and then interior parts like. Extinguishers Nav foot rest Everything else! Good luck

Hi. Sorry we don't do that gear box lsd.

The more Clios in rallying the better. I think they make an excellent tarmac car. Single venue events are more suitable than the forests for the car I would have thought, so it's airfields and hill climbs for mepPlus Mull

I have a 3/8 which fitted on but it was a spanner and I couldn't get a good grip on them. It made me think I cannot believe Renault fitted an imperial bolt on to a car. That's something BL would have done in the 70's

Just an update on the project. I spent the weekend cleaning the rest of the inside out of sound deadening. It has all gone now! I also removed the air con radiator and pipe work. Then I took all the removed junk to the tip. It is quite amazing the amount of weight I have removed. I came across...

The question is... What do you want to achieve? I know your age/insurance prevents any performance mods but are you interested in motorsport or just cosmetic mods. This site has masses of excellent information and people who are very willing to share their knowledge. So have a good look through...

I spoke to Renault and the metal version of the sump grd is nearly £300. So it is cheaper to buy the Kevlar one from Poland

I have managed to find a supplier who will allow me to distribute their products. So I can offer a helical LSD with or without 5.25 final drive ratio. £799 for the LSD and £398 for the final drive. They come with a full lifetime guarantee. They are used extensively by Honda owners and other...

Tarmac springs. I am looking at 400lbs front and 250lbs rear (coil over) Would I be in the right area at those rates?

Thanks Where could I get one from Renault UK?

And God was it slow. I can honestly say that I have never driven anything as hard and gone as slow. We were 102nd when the rally was cancelled and I was driving the socks off it. Still I was beating 50 other cars so god knows what their excuses are!!!!!! Anyway I decided I needed more than...

I have seen these and spoken to the supplier and they seem confident that they will be more than up to tarmac rallying. 2 way adjustable and reasonable priced I might just take a punt on them. I have also been busy on the hunt for a LSD and final drive. I have found a company who can supply the...
