    Best top mounts to get?

    Just a little update. Last week I got around to make a one of top cap for the KW Later Clio 200 mounts. Once these have been checked and mounted up I will have some more of these made to work with the later 200 mounts and KW's. Any of the KW Compbrake top mounts are only available through...

    Best top mounts to get?

    For the mount to fit into the purple top cap it should be a 91mm diameter spring black top cap if it’s for the early top mounts with kw’s. Any questions bounce me an email.

    Best top mounts to get?

    Compbrake mounts purchased through me do work with the kw’s. However out of the box the standard set up doesn’t mount to the KW purple top cap which holds the spring. I have done custom set ups for 197/KW v3’s and will have some Photos of a later 200/KW v3’s later next week. I will get photos...

    Well after a wet and windy Saturday working on the car between rain showers, I have spent many hours writing up a thread on Piston Heads. Going to take the build thread for the BMW over to Piston Heads from now on. I know I have most of the people that have posted in this build thread over...

    2.05/2.06 in the dry with a passenger, The car has much more time in it, just confidence in the corners, still adjusting to how the car drives and don’t want to push my luck with it too soon. Will be back to Oulton in it next year to see what it can do with more seat time.

    Matt's 200

    Now you’ve done it it’s probably quicker and easier to remove the bumper and head light so you can actually see what you’re doing and do it properly. Nightmare to do!

    Storm grey progress blog *Supreme motorsport development car*

    Glad to see you building another clio. Always so much better building a car second time around. Know exactly what you want now and what works. What you’d change etc. Want to see this on a track day up North sometime in the New Year! Off you go!

    197 Cup F4RT track car

    Great updates mate. Much prefer the wrap around seats. Wish I had a set for mine to be honest now as it doesn’t get driven on the road! Much more support around the shoulders too.

    LY200 - too loud or blow up again, taking bets!

    Wiring looks spot on and the ideas/safety features you’re adding to it sound perfect too. One of the main advantages of running stand alone is being able to calibrate things like that also being able to easily feed that data into the dash too for the data logging. Job for mine one day in the...

    Albi Blue 200 >> BMW E46 Track Car

    Not a lot at the moment just use it on track days and enjoy it. Need to finish off the oil cooler install before Oulton. Long term goals will just be to build a plated diff into the spare diff i’ve got in the garage, that’s also a shorter 3.38 final drive too.

    Albi Blue 200 >> BMW E46 Track Car

    A Few people have asked me about the full spec of the car now it's built, while I'm away on a holiday I've finally got around to typing one up. Seeing it all written down like that makes you realise how much of the car was actually rebuilt when I was building it. I'd forgotten a lot of the parts...

    Thanks Ben. That engine and exhaust note was the reason I wanted to move to the E46. Really adds to the thrill and drama when driving it. Booked a track day for the 24th November at Oulton Park, nice local track day for me on a Saturday.
