Also when I say track car, this is the car I use for sprint events so remaining with the NA f4r is my only option, the megane lump would alter my class too much. Just to cover that base! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lots of info there thanks! Why would the pec rods be false economy rich? Surely better than the standards, and if I was wanting to really scream the car I would be needing to look into the cat-cam solid lifter/finger kit? I suppose this would depend what revs would be needed to really be 'on...

Hi rich. Thanks for the reply I run 402's already so I'm thinking the 403 equivilant wont be worth it seeing as I'm already outlaying the cash. Been in touch with cat, their reply was pretty much the same as what you have said, bump up compression but would also not be bad on standard...

Evening all I'm looking to run a standalone ecu on my 197 this year, the ecu does not run vvt. Car is a track car Therefore I'm looking into my non vvt cam options, looking at the catcams website show me plenty of options, however currently the engine internals are still standard. Anyone had...

Does anyone know where I can buy any lazer cut inlet manifold flanges to fit the 197? I've seen ones for the 172/182 however cannot find any for the 197, or am I being stupid and the 172/182 ones will fit?

Hi mate awesome looking build, a real inspiration! one question, why have you chose to use the cup racer epas? Rather than the standard epas? Sorry if that's a daft question. also who's your contact in Holland as I want some cup racer toys too!!!!! :innocent::proud:

Yeah I'd seen that too, how confusing

Looking at getting a set of rsr's on my clio been looking on my tyres.co.uk and they quote two different prices for what looks like the same tyre? links...

Mainly due to engine being from a different manufacturer. But a k20 Clio would be gooooood

Questions answered!! Thanks! The k20 option has occurred to me too, like I said before I think that would cause problems with race/rally classes...

I'm looking at building a new engine for my 197 track/sprint car, this engine will need to stay NA for class reasons. The engine will be running throttle bodies. I know of the front clearance issues with the 197 and the front brace, however I'm hoping to overcome that with a custom jobby. My...

Yeah bolt in gez, once footplates are welded in. 14 point bolt in though...

Looks good flacsi! Finally got my r3 airbox fitted last week, fits well and looks great! i ended up fitting the header tank in the same place as you and modified the washer bottle filler to suit so it can still be used

I shelled out the extra after looking at the other options i went for the safety devices cage, really comprehensive kit, can't fault it! only pic I've got at the moment:

Perfect cheers [emoji106]

Ok il have a look thanks i seem to remember reading something on here that the cup racers run around 3 degrees neg on the front and 2 on the rear? seems a lot!

Having done a few trackdays in my 197 now I'm looking alter the geometry a little. car is running kW clubsports already so maybe looking at playing with camber front/rear just wondering what sort off camber/toe setups people are using? sam

Great build! Will be watching with interest! exactly where I want to go with my car, however I will be going for the safety devices cage over winter great job!

Good thread mate! Need to get one started for mine soon! would you say the airbox is a good buy then? Had it on a dyno yet? got a v6 box on mine but love the look of the r3

Ok il give them a call then cheers, anywhere else?
