I should have listened to the wise old man!

I’ve now realised after watching that I definitely shouldn’t have been in 2nd gear so much last Thursday!

I saw @Jakkehoop post about this on one of the facebook pages yesterday, think it’s an issue forum side.

i’m sure he’d told me 2nd just before the right and a short shift to 3rd for bomb hole. in his lap he kept it in 3rd though

I was trying to follow the advice I got from Mike Epps most of the lap

I should have tried it to be fair. Us NA peasants don’t have much pull down there though!

Worth a go! I'm sure one of those methods will work, even if it does take some time

Potentially. would say a pry bar would 100% be the fastest way if you can get it in there

Not to encourage yours to go bang..... this one is calling your name

Was gonna say, i'm sure i used one when i did it! The worst bit was just getting the gearbox to release from the mount, the first time i did it i soaked it in wd40, jacked the gearbox up and down, jumped on the door sill and it wouldn't budge. Eventually it released by itself after about 30mins...

I would recommend it, when I went from OEM to yellow powerflex it felt way better/tighter when changing gears. We did fit the torque arm, upper and lower powerflex mounts at the same time though so couldn't comment on whether you'd get much extra vibration with just that one.

That looks shagged to me

See you at donnington, pretty sure we've got a garage so you're welcome to share

This is interesting, we’ve been running them at 30 ish hot as well as I assumed that’s the way to go with basically all semi slicks. How much camber does he run? Looking forward to the DannyDC2 video, a clio seems very different to most of the stuff he usually drives.

It probably is for road use, especially for tyre wear! We went for a similar setup to the cup racers so sometimes it is a bit sketchy switching lanes on the motorway but as it’s mainly a track car we’re happy to compromise on comfort for some on track performance.

Yeah the fronts i definitely couldn’t see the shoulder on

I’m fairly sure the thread is in the disk itself at the rear so they’re definitely fully screwed in

this is what it ended up looking like, 82mm studs on speedlines with 20mm spacer. sits perfect. They stick out quite a bit with the OZs but it’s not too bad. The dog approves.

Will check how it sits when i get the wheels back on, cheers

Perfect, thanks Chris!
