I’d have been up for that but now the clio has gone and the BMW box is silky smooth even after 140k, best of luck with it, hope it works out!

From driving on track With Rob a lot in the dc5 my clio was the same speed on the straights till around 100mph when the higher revs of the Honda just let it pull away slightly. Got some videos from snetton somewhere lapping together for a session. Out of interest, is this the grey clio you...

Great work as always Mark!

Looks a nice setup, Just short of a set of harnesses to go with the seats and wheel.

Looks great Matt, Just caught up with the build thread. Attention to detail with this one is mega!

Will get it onto a dyno with the standard map on at the moment and then remap it with the standard rev limiter for the moment until I put a superdamper pulley on there. Been very quiet over the last few weeks after editing the videos from the track car. The car has been parked up since and...

Looking good. The red and the white really go well together. Are you not tempted to paint the whole inside properly?

Cheers Yiannis. Still getting the grips with it and haven’t really started messing with the set up of it too much at the moment but there is so much grip and feel in the car it’s awesome to drive. Really lively and full of feedback but really planted at the same time. Yeah. The sound of the...

Final build update starts on the previous page! So... The first track day in the E46. All Loaded up on the Thursday evening we set off down to Anglesey ready to camp over the night before. BBQ's packed, enough food to feed and army from the Tesco and Bangor and we were set for two nights...

Update - Monday - Donnington. So since the last visit on here a few things have happened. Firstly was the trip down the Donnington to meet up with a group of friends from on here, really funny evening in Donnington town the night before with an Indian with Mr Ghandi. Which has started the forums...

Yeah mainly due to the fact I like the subtle look with the BMW’s. Been there and had the bright cage. If I wanted a custom cage it would have been a few months wait. Full price plus the extra for Powdercoat. Matt black was in the sheld and got it at a very well discounted price next day...

Love seeing this come together, or should I say back together? Nice touch with the red stitch!

So... I've got a nice 5 week break from work at the moment so time to get my teeth into finishing this before the track day on the 17th at Anglesey. Once we got back from a weekend of racing at Cadwell, Sadly didn't finish the race due to a shafted gearbox in the Civic. Ripped the Gearbox out...

Looking good, I'm a big fan of Glacier white 200's. Looks a really clean example. Keep the updates coming!

Anglesey on the 17th August. Got 16 days to get it finish and tested! Painting is happening this Saturday when I've finished prepping it, the bolt the cage and dash back in next week, alignment next Friday.

Looked into it in a bit more detail this week and the dual vanos on the e46 is much easier to remove and service than the E36 I've messed with in the past which requires the tool to remove the vanos unit. Will find the seal kit and get one ordered and probably do it before the track day. On a...

Yeah it will be done, probably before the map is changed, waiting till the gearbox is removed to do the detents on the gearbox, making it easier to get the timing pin in when doing the vanos service, on the to do list but it isn't right at the top to be done before the first track day.

Been very short of time over the past week or so, only just finding time to log onto here and update with a little bit of progress. Started off with the Parcel from Europe I had been waiting 8 weeks for, it was certainly worth the wait though. RTD Tall Race shifters with a custom Duel Sheer...

Good work. Like everything if you’re willing to put the time in. Learn about things and be willing to make the odd tool or buy a few things here and there these jobs aren’t too difficult. Helpful if you’ve got access to machinery though. I’ve lost count the amount of tools i’ve made to be able...

Didn’t take long for you to come back? What have you gone now? Standard or modified?
