At yeah, I had it bolted to the front, yeah I am fairly sure all Garmin is just ram mounts. Congrats as well, I am struggling to keep up with two!

Trim to the front removable dash and then bolted to the plastic at the bottom, don’t seem to have any images without it attached.

The plain rear purchased from KAM racing comes like this https://www.kamracing.co.uk/renault-oe-brake-discs-renault-clio-mk3-rs197-rs200.html

Interested to see how you find the AO52’s as every one seems to rave about them, had 48’s on the saxo and I was impressed, very different to AR1.

Yeah don’t trust the magnetic mount by itself, I use the tegiwa bracket https://www.tegiwaimports.com/tegiwa-garmin-catalyst-tethered-mount-bracket-clip.html I use ram mounts for my GoPro, not cheap but rock solid.

Cheers, second, one girl and one boy so I am done.

The dream is to race it on the 20th May at BH but I think I need to be realistic, back on the track in June would be awesome

Baby has arrived so this post might be all over the place. The block is in my kitchen, loom is in 5 pieces in my study, the crank is in a machine shop, the head is in a different machine shop, various parts are getting blasted in Kent, the dampers are in Bristol, the hubs are in the shed in...

The detectors can all be removed, the one thing I couldn’t remove without the light was the passenger airbag button, not sure if that is possible?

Yeah you should be fine, if you keep the loom in you can start / check everything works after cutting which is a benefit. The only gotcha on the canbus is the way it loops through the power steering and into the instrument cluster but I doubt you want to touch that, the rest you can see clearly...

Cheers, I know that my current interior loom is just under 2kg, not sure on the standard but must be close if not over 10 so its worth it. The easiest way is to take it all out, remove tape and then trace back / depin, it seems extreme but doing it in the car is really tricky and time...

Looking like its going to be night and day setup to last year :thumb: Did Nick sell you the solid front arms separately or am I misunderstanding? Ignore me, thought you meant the new solid subframe bushes/arm.

I have a lightweight pulley and you can certainly feel the engine rev faster (when not loaded) however lots of talk around the requirement for a damper on the crank. Some use a 1*2 pulley instead and then a stretch belt as this saves some weight and I think it’s what the racers have. Make sure...

Yeah there is a restaurant which isn’t bad, it’s just the garages, no idea how the BTTC guys manage.

Thruxton is great but the facilities are not, the garages can just about fit a single car

So the upgrades have already got out of control, with the manifold now blowing I have upgraded to the PMS system, as always it looks awesome. Involved a cut to the Akra system and a sleeve to fit but all relatively simple. Also took the opportunity to upgrade the mounts with the PMS kit as...

In my case it is because the OEM mounts have been removed to save weight however I believe the OEM fixing meet FIA spec as per detailed here as I know a few clios that run with standard fixings but then it isn't very clear...

Would love to but its a lot of work, fair play to those that put the effort in as I enjoy watching others builds on YT. Yeah no idea how they where ever legal, I bent 4mm of steel on my seat mounts so no chance these would hold as they can't even be 3mm.

Cheers for the messages guys, been through various states of mind since but feeling positive about it all now. With the new shell jacked up I set about starting the rebuild, about 100 times more satisfying than stripping. Gear stick / linkages, handbrake, steering column, exhaust, rear beam /...

Yeah the video is well worth a watch, serious money spent
