Just carry noise cancelling headphones with you when you drive, that'll be problem solved. Still won't pass you on Emissions though unless you are friendly with someone.

- Manifold - De-cat - Exhaust MOT Failure right there, assuming the manifold is KTEC's own and is the Exhaust Manifold (Guarenteed fail on emissions). Oh, and if you're thinking motorway commuting, you'll need ear muffs lol! I've got an Non-Res Exhaust and a Decat with a regular...

Phwaaaar those dash strips are much nicer than the original gloss black! Very nice design choice there! Putting mine to shame!

Clamps? Half the battle done for you! Could have a custom one made up for you.

Eh, if you didn't hit the cold limiter, you should be okay. 10 minutes is probably enough driving to get the car up to an OK temp, I usually wait a little longer though.

I'd just like to point out that in freezing conditions, the car will take FAR longer to warm up than in hotter weather. 10 minutes sometimes isn't enough in freezing weather.

You should wait a small amount of time after the coolant has reached optimum temp before flooring it. You've gotta remember you're monitoring coolant temp, not oil temp, coolant temp raises far far faster. The oil needs to circulate and heat the entire pan up.

I cant imagine you're ball joint would suddenly give up after some slight disturbance... It takes time for it to weaken to a knocking noise and gets audibly louder over the months. It's likely an error of your own as it's so sudden. If you cant fix it, get it investigated. Could well be a ball...

Check you havent cross threaded any of the bolts.

You hit the nail on the head with the meg vs clio hence why people swap the engines in the clio. Best of both! There is no difference between the 197 200 that is worth forking thst much money out over. Imo if I could go back I'd get a better spec 197. Can't answer your last question but I'm...

It's either camber or if it's not then it'll be your actual steering wheel alignment. I had mine adjusted for my ad08rs and then adjusted back to normal when I took them off Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Steering wheel alignment. Had the same thing with ad08rs Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

I've got downshifting in the bag with these cars. However, I can't do heel and toe in them, the brake just seems miles too high for me personally and I've got size 11 shoes!

Bolts arrived a week ago from SJM free of charge, I purchased a torque wrench yesterday and torqued the big one up to 50nm and the smalller ones to 45nm. After a long hard battering, the bolts haven't moved at all. Sorted once more! I did notice a fan belt squeek on startup after the hard rag...

Clutch looks fairly worn in lmao Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

I stripped out the rear on mine but left some of the lighter plastics in. Less chance of you cutting yourself on something sharp that way. I did leave my rear speakers in though as they don't really weigh much and I quite like the sound. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
