Renault did sell chrome renault sport engraved bolt on tips for the 197 exhaust as an optional extra so they weren't hidden in the diffuser

Ive been running them on my 197 since january and have done 2 trips round wales and a week at the ring last week, plus the usual driving about and still got plenty of tread left. Have driven both on motorways and smaller roads in very wet conditions and provided your not trying to be a hero in...

I spotted a white 57 plate 197 sporting some unlucky front end damage coming off the track on saturday. Anyone on here? I had my gaffa tape at the ready but didnt see you again in any of the carparks.

Spotted you car but couldnt work out who owned it so say hi. I was in the black 197, nice car really like the cup lip and side skirts.

Had this happen to me while i was im a rush to meet a mate, always happens when your in a rush! Ive just disconnected the solinoid for the time being as my car lives in a garage 90% of the time total pain to get to on the bp gargae forcourt. Any chance one of the mods could stick the correct...

Does this just involve removing the rubber part held in with 3 bolts or the whole mount that goes to the inner wing and then the second part that bolts to the top of the gearbox like in the workshop manual?

If i have the time il have a look yeah, got a gearbox mount to fit so will have the spanners out. Il be taking mine of next month for sure so if you can wait that long il get some detailed pics and measurements for you then.

If you can I would take it off and check how the gasket relates to the head inlet sizes i planned on doing that so i knew how much to ask them to take off the lower section. The thing that put me off the sussex one most was the price, as i would ask them not to take much more than just cleaning...

Any chance you could pm me the price pure motorsport are charging for porting mate I was going to use Sussex performance but it's a lot more than I was expecting.

TB Rich was it engine dynamics doing the work? I asked them about porting my inlets (standard engine) and they said it wasn't worth the bother. Yet you see other companies claiming great gains. Anyone had a car dyno'd before and after?

I just got a set ad08r in 215/45/17 from my local f1 autocentre the fitted price on there website was cheaper than i could find just a tire online. Think it was £113 a wheel fitted with a free alignment check

I currently have a scissor jack I brought for next to nothing in halfords years ago as i find it alot more stable for emergency jacking than the Renault item. However a scissor jack from a similar sized car or larger from your local scrappy would be recommendation.

Any idea what the name is he's started up again under?

TB Rich thanks mate id appreciate that, I'm only 20 mins down the road from them. When I spoke to them i was advised theyre not really worth doing you only gain a little bit of air speed low down. In two minds now whether to bother or not.

This is what forums are for, thanks il get a few quotes from elsewhere. Any other recommendations to go with engine dynamics?

I was in touch with dan at 519 just before xmas to get my inlets port matched im now at the point where i want the work done and hes website and facebook page have both vanished. Anyone on the forum know if everythings ok at 519. I know dans hard to get in touch with but normally always...

I went in 2013 and stayed on maison blanche booked through travel destinations and have done the same again this year. You will always hear the story's about things getting stolen but common sense is don't leave anything not locked away in your car. With maison Blanche being inside the track you...

I'm heading over for only the second time this year, just wondered if anyone else on the forum was going? Really is an amazing place.

Cheers for the reply il get myself a decat on that advise. Im not going for centre silencer out Ive had my fill of loud a fook cars.

Thanks for the quick reply, thats going to really bug me given the price of it. by chance yours wasnt the resonated version was it? as thats what I went for and am now considering a decat but dont want the exhaust really droney at motorway speeds.
