So after things going so well and dyno booked I found a leak, not massive but coolant drips from the head gasket. Exchanged a few messages with Alex and by all accounts a HG leak on an F4R is very rare which pointed to something being wrong. I went through what I had done and looked at the...

This car continues it’s role in trying to kill me, I am not giving up yet.

Yeah not sure if 4 would fit, its literally strips of CF painted black and lots of araldite but tbh any thin bit of plastic just to hide the top and bottom would work.

I don’t think the cup chassis has that option? Before I removed I did find a manual which listed all of the lights but I can’t find it now.

Cheers, this got lost as I was working on it the weekend before the crash. Basically its a zadatech screen retrofitted in, took a bit of cutting and some thin sheets of CF to smarten it up but fits well. I then have the temp / pressure sensors on a sandwich plate with the...

So after I had calmed down I purchased a new starter from RPD, no idea why or how the solenoid has failed as it was working before I removed it. Starter fitted (bitch of a job) and coolant topped up, bled as well as I could without running. 20L of VPower added to the tank, flushed a litre...

Looks so mean with that front end, are you going to lower it now?

Cheers, hopefully at the bottom right now, was close to setting fire to it tonight when I went to turn it over and found the starter solenoid has failed..

Recomend this for covering the wheel when not in use / daily duties https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/301081515958

Currently in the engine bay hoping you are not going to tell me it can’t be disabled / removed from the ECU map..

After realising I needed a cat I shot a message to Lee at Piper to see if they had anything suitable and replied with this photo. A small 100 cell and a larger 200, on paper it looked like the 100 would be better but consulting the bible (four-stroke performance tuning) the shape of the 200...

Yeah Sorry missed this, not that I am aware of, getting beyond my knowledge but I would assume longer springs would solve a few things but also be heavier. From memory the CatCams double valve springs have a 2mm lower retainer, at a guess its as though they have used parts off the shelf and...

Yeah I know, I think any car manufactured after 2000 needs one fitted, heard stories of mass cars being DQ because of this so not going to risk it. Christ, might need a few adverts for when the knocking starts…

Taking advantage of the new unit I have been able to get a few hours here and there over the past few weeks. First up was main seal, once on the crane I used a £10 piece of Perspex tubing which worked great in getting the seal to sit straight, left it about 2mm out as per the original...

Kam racing and AP motorsport also sell them.

Do you mean the EE bracket?

I have found this where Renault recommend rotating the connector 20 degrees in the R3, hard to visualise but I assume this gives a tiny bit more clearance to the engine.

Yeah that would make sense but all the aftermarket springs recommend ~30kg seat (super tech/cat cams) to get correct pressure at lift which equals around 34mm installed height the problem is stock is around 35.5 so you are close to 3mm off. This would all make sense to me if the collet was 1.2mm...
