Glacier White 200 Cup

Fair point Beany. Would make a wicked replacement for the Megane.

It would… also it can appease them both.

Ethan would retain the existing Clio with it’s stock interior and creature comforts where as Gav can take the more extreme option finally “wink wink”

Everyone wins

I think that the seller of the GW 200 would be the real winner here.

Runing one track car fits our small and measly budget.

I hate to say it but I think running that treacle-like gearbox oil may have been a bad move. Even when I had air in my clutch system and the bite point was on the floor, the car never struggled to go into gear.

Interesting to see the difference in lap times and I'm glad I'm not the only one struggling to hit a better time around Snett.

You might be right. The thicker Millers gearbox oil only lasted one track day before it was changed to some Redline stuff.

Ethan has wasted no time and has extracted the box already without removing the sub frame.



Next step is to open up the box and see what needs replacing. Most of this will be guesswork!

How did he manage to do that? I'll need this for future if it's easier

I copied the technique from @RSRowe’s thread.

The crunchy 197

Hopefully you can fix the niggles and add a bit onto the resale price to make it worth your while Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s essentially just front bumper off, rad support off, tie the radiator up out of the way and crack on as normal, there’s just about enough room to get it out with the engine pulled forward a bit. I found you also don’t have to tilt the engine down as much either. I think it was less hassle than dropping the whole subframe but I’ll see what it’s like getting it back in!

I'll do you a deal and give you a passenger ride in the replacement

What is the replacement going to be - M4?

Thanks for the link. I did find the manual a few weeks ago. But yours is the first free link that I have seen.

Have you made much progress with your box yet? We are trying to work out if we need to acquire a press for a gearbox rebuild.

Im probably a bit late. But I think if you are changing diff bearings you need a press to get them on.
