    Water in engine through air intake Can this happen

    It must have been really deep or she must have been going really fast for any decent amount of water to get sucked in considering where the standard airbox sits!!! You'll be able to pick an engine up for around £750, so whilst it won't be "cheap" to rectify, it shouldn't be too bad in the grand...

    Conti Sport Contact 3

    Give the Kumho KU39 a try, I paid less than £100 per tyre (fitted) in 225/40/18. I was a fan of the Conti's but have to say these are superior to them in the wet and although it's not been that dry since they've been on I'd be surprised if they don't have the beating of them there too.

    Daughter collected Fiesta ST today .....wow

    EVO have a 200T as a long termer at the moment and they've had it around three months now. At first they really weren't taken but in the last magazine they were saying that it's now starting to show it's hand and they're starting to love it. I think the problem is that the 200T is THAT good and...

    Clutch Dragging????

    Never had any issues with the gearbox in my 197 in three years, including about 7/8 trackdays. But, I did have an issue with the clutch in that one of the fingers sheered from the pressure plate which made a nice mess of the bell housing and put several holes through it. It also managed to take...

    Wheel Dilemma

    Not entirely sure to be honest, I know some Ford wheels fit the five stud Renault hubs so surely it must work the other way too... Volvo share a lot of parts with them too. I'm sure there's a website that tells you all the cars once you put a fitment into it but I can't think of the address.

    Brakes - Fast road and track set ups...IN HERE.

    Well as these discs have served me well for the last three years and the pads are around half-worn, I'll be making some changes roundabout March time. I've already changed the fluid to ATE SuperBlue and although I'm still really getting used to the new engine and haven't pushed her too much...

    F1 decals? what colour?

    Oh definitely each to their own!!! It's like the Evo and Impreza guys you see every now and then with the full hit on them. Numberboards, logos for products they don't even use/drink/know what it is etc., when done right they *can* on the very rare occasion look ok. But personally it's just OTT...

    F1 decals? what colour?

    It's not on the same scale as nobbery no but it's in the same vein. But it's not an F1. It's a cracking car and looks immaculate as it is. :)
