    200: Nurburgring Prep

    ^as above really I went in my 197 and did 1 tourist lap in May followed by a 25 minute session on the GP Circuit at the end of our trip to the N24. I’m on Cooksport Springs (because both my fronts broke just before I went), cup shocks as it’s a cup chassis car, standard Brembo discs and Pads...

    197 Front Coilover Install Help

    I completely fucked 1 pinch bolt removing it from the strut, 1 side I had tappped the shock upwards a little too much (after compressing the spring) which was putting pressure on the bolt, so I tapped it down and it wound out after a few minutes of spraying, heating and ratcheting. The other...

    Really like the side shot, the photographer got some great pictures of everyone’s cars! You won’t be disappointed I can assure you! I’m keen for another session at Brands in the summer as it’s so local, will let you know before I book something [emoji1360] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Lotus Exige

    Late finding this but oh my god that Exige is stunning. I would give my right arm and leg to have that...although I would then have to be chauffeur driven so maybe not! But what a car! Hope you’re still enjoying it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    So Brands was a success. The track dried out by the afternoon, got a dry line and then the whole track cleared. All the work previously mentioned was so worth it, the car was faultless. It handled so well considering it’s just the cup chassis, I can see why you guys rave about them on track...

    Rear brake fitting kit??????

    As above. Not essential, but when I replaced my rear calipers I did replace these but only because my original ones were a bit bent and showing their age Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Update: Upon everyone’s recommendation, I have invested in 225 Yokohama AD08R’s and the first couple of hundred miles on the road have been great fun! Thanks for pushing me in the right direction guys, they’re great! I also had 3rd and 4th syncros replaced last week along with a new clutch...

    Low battery warning and battery light Clio 200

    My alternator was a staggering £320 from Renault. But as I have said previously, it’s not worth going for a pattern one, even if all the figures are the same, my 2nd alternator even said Bosch and has the same specs as the final Renault supplied unit I put on it, but it still caused me voltage...
