Right seeing as the weather is blowing a gale outside and I cant fit my harnesses today I thought id throw up a build thread to keep a check on things. So where do I start, a brief history of my most recent trackcars as I do love a car or 2. My all time favourite that I built and drove on...

Can anyone shed some light My 197 cup which i bought from a friend who had the car repaired by his bodyshop after it was declared a cat d pre 2015 i believe. Im sure i saw a pic of the car with the numberplate in a thread from sometime ago and wondered what the history was behind it or if...

Im sure ive seen a guide to fitting coilovers but cant seem to relocate it for love nor money, is there a guide? It looks fairly simple but just wanted to overlook a guide to be on the safe side. cheers jonny

Could you not take it off and get a new lug plastic welded on, looks a little warped too maybe a bit of heat to mould back into place might stop it drooping, if its painted carbon fibre i have no idea @Gregor

Now with the cambelt done and it being 10k lower it would be worth the 4.5-5k like you stated but you would need to sit on it, as from my experiance i never trust a car that has been owned for a month or 2 no matter how mint or low the mileage is. on the plus you have a great driving car for...

I say drive it like its meant to be driven, my mk1 golf is 33 years old and has done over 20 trackdays, (not a brag just a point) alot more worth than alot of cars, no good it tucked up in a garage drive it and experiance it let all the youngsters see these different cars as soon there will be...

What @dolby20 has said if its an akro should be branded somewhere, like milltek's there all branded

Sounds about right really when you think about having the cambelt done it then owes you £3600, which is roughly the price it should be. Be careful people get skeptical when cars arent owned for that long especially just after its had a cambelt done, people may ask questions or steer clear, what...

Im new to clios so font fully quote me but my mk1 golf rear shocks bolt the same with one bolt through the bottom and id be a little bit concerned they arent bolting flush, by the looks of it the shock could move side to side. Are they original bolts? is there apace left in the tube? maybe try...

Yea I did enquire about some parts but sold the vfr and bought the zx6, loved the vfr surprised so many people on track, shame they didn't make a 600 version lovely looking vfr mate.
