I bought them from someone that races a clio cup car. They are a control tyre for a race seres (not sure which). They have 100 wear rating are XL and are not E marked. Thats all I know about them. I have a pic of the sidewall somewhere from when I wanted to try and find them online. I'll dig it...

Thats the power of Nankangs!

Hi, Yes, flatspot will happen. It removes the second cat, standard Renault Mapping does not like this. Can be mapped out though. I personally like the sound. Its quite raspy up the rev range, its fairly quiet when off the throttle. As I said in PM, there's a few vids floating round of mine...

Hahaha! I had no grip left, the semi slicks were cold and not biting. I have you on video quite a bit as we were not far off each other in pace. Your car looked very clean. Loved the rally style wheels.

It sits between the pedal and the ecu to distort the signal being sent from the pedal. Never used one so can't comment on how well they work. I'm not in any rush to try one though.

There was a problem with my fuel and so the ecu was retarding 2 degrees.

Well, After the exhaust being fitted I developed the dreaded flatspot. So, I got in touch with Henk at Fastchips.nl. Got the car booked in for a remap. Pretty happy with how it went. Made 178.6 BHP (at the wheels) on its first run. After mapping its actually making less peak power. This is not...

If you put your foot on the clutch... its using more fuel because the engine has to idle. If the inertia is driving the engine through the box... it uses zero fuel :)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJCGN5BtvgY Got bored. Gives you an idea how the Pure Motorsport exhaust sounds.

ftfy. :)

Nah, its not mine. Coincidence that they used an RB, R27. :)

I have a test video of the Pure Motorsport Exhaust. Ive been running it just over a week now, its settled in quite nice, its not so loud, unless you give it the beans. I'll throw something on Youtube after work.

Sounds like thrust bearing. Nothing to worry about, its annoying but nothing else. You will replace it along with the clutch at a later date.

Considering the main weakness of the gearbox is a weak syncro, i wouldn't want to be adding further leverage on the shifter mechanism rushing the engagement further.

197/200 looks to be the more focused chassis. Lot more give in the new 200/220. Wish I had some of that torque though. :/

Time for a new mechanic :)

Pads.... But really?

I'll be doing a proper one at some point soon.... with all the revs! :)

Only thing I can think of thats not been mentioned is diff bearings. But it sounds too violent to be that.
