    Tearing my hair out over 6cd changer

    No, there's no need to disconnect stuff from the amp, at least not if you're only swapping the CD-changer for a new headunit. Skickat från min ONEPLUS A3003 via Tapatalk

    Cambelt Change

    I e-mailed Andy about installing cams on my 197 a month or two ago and he basically said it's not worth it without installing a cat-back to go with them. If you have the £1700+ for belt, cams and a cat-back you'll get 16-20 bhp.

    Tearing my hair out over 6cd changer

    There are standard connectors behind the cd changer somewhere. Cd changer goes out, new headunit goes in, done! I, and a few other have done this.

    Ultra Red 197 photoshoot, enjoy

    Damn it Antti it looks like it just left the showroom! You're making the rest of us look bad for not washing out cars as regularly :ban:

    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    Silly me. Didn't measure the distance between the center of the wheels and the wheel wells so now I have zero clue on how much I lowered it. :chair: Does anyone here have these measurements for a stock FF 197?

    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    So I finally had a chance to take her for a spin with the b14's fitted. What I noticed first was how much firmer the ride was and how little the car rolls and dives now. For me, this is how it should've been setup from the factory, it is stiff but not uncomfortably stiff. Also the fact that it...

    Damn it, I paid 30£ for one side!

    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    One of the horizontal ones. Yes, they are. They could've designed the suspension with the same link in both positions. Then we'd have only one part number made in greater quantities and at a lower price but this is Renault we're talking about... :rage:

    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    I managed to fit the coilovers but in the process I damaged one of the anti-rotation links and had to order a replacement. The new link should arrive today or tomorrow.

    197 Aerodynamics (CFD analysis)

    Is 9000x5000 px enough?

    No, I don't but I can make one when I get home :wink:

    197 Aerodynamics (CFD analysis)

    I haven't done any CFD runs lately but I've done a few runs in a laptime simulation software to see how much of an effect the added downforce has around the track. For this, I'm using OptimumLap which is a free software that models the car as a single particle going around a flat track. It takes...

    197 Aerodynamics (CFD analysis)

    I will try rounding off the leading edge and see what happens, thanks for the suggestion. I'll also test raised center sections although prototype aerodynamics have little in common with our cars as their splitters aren't really splitters but inverted wings in ground effect.

    My Albi is dead :(

    Damn, I loved your car mate, shame. Glad you're ok and hope you'll get the chance of driving one again in the near future! Skickat från min ONEPLUS A3003 via Tapatalk

    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    Man, changing dampers on these things is much more challenging than the how-to's suggest, especially if the bolts and nuts haven't been touched since the car left the factory. Took me two days to get one damper off the car (keep in mind that I work in my back yard with hand tools only) and then...

    Oh yes, oh yes [emoji41] Now I need to figure out if I'm mounting them myself or letting a pro do it. Skickat från min ONEPLUS A3003 via Tapatalk

    You just got it and went straight to the ring, huh? Nice. It's on my list for next year. [emoji3] Skickat från min ONEPLUS A3003 via Tapatalk

    Tomislav's Ultra Red 197

    Welcome to the club! How are you enjoying the Clio? Ordered the B14s from from K-tec racing in the UK for 7700 SEK, including shipping. In Sweden, they probably go for 10000 SEK or more. Prices for car parts are insane here, that's why I always order from the UK or Germany. Skickat från min...

    B14s on their way! They should arrive by the end of next week. Pretty excited with them being my first mod [emoji3] Skickat från min ONEPLUS A3003 via Tapatalk

    RS Megane MK4

    Yeah. I hope the wheel arches are wider than that render suggests. Doesn't seem aggressive at all but it's clean looking which I do like. But I can't get over that front bumper.
