    Hazard lights come on when starting engine

    Hi Just working on a friends 197 track car, every time you start the thing the hazard lights flash really fast. Hit the hazard switch and they turn off. Anyone got any ideas/pointers? Car has no alarm fitted if that helps. Would a Clip be able to de-active the alarm if the fact this has been...

    Part numbers

    Anyone got any links to a part number locator? I need the studs and nuts that hold the strengthener piece across the subframe, no idea what the correct name for them is but can easily spot them on a picture. Thanks in advance!

    Wishbone camber bolt coming loose

    Anyone else had an issue with this? Ever since I've had the Powerflex bushes fitted to my wishbones the drivers side camber bush bolt keeps coming loose. I have even replaced the nut and bolt with brand new items from Renault, used loctite, yet it still does it! Anyone got any ideas to sort it...

    Pure Motorsport 197/200 Exhaust

    Anyone got one of these fitted to a 197/200? Looks a good quality exhaust, and price is good too. Do they still suffer from the usual flat spot, and what are they like noise wise at motorway speeds? Cheers!

    TL4 ratios

    I'm looking at building a new gearbox for my track/hillclimb 200, where can the imformation be found about different combinations of gear sets and final drives? I know some people on here have built custom boxes up, and Gripper do a different final drive. Can you mix and match any 6 speed TL4...

    Powerflex Anti-lift Castor Offset bushes

    Anyone fitted these? Even since I've got mine fitted I seem to get a slight knock occasionally under hard braking and acceleration, or when coming to a complete stop and pulling away. Only on the drivers side though. Anyone else had the same issue? Defo seems like this bush is the cause...

    Lowering steering wheel

    Any Clio 200 owners played around with the steering wheel position? Just fitted some new bucket seats and the wheel sits way too high even on the lowest setting. Will be even worse once I fit my new OMP dished wheel. Anything unbolt easily to add a spacer in? Would start stripping it down now...

    Exhaust for track use

    Looking to fit something to my 200, what have people experienced with regards passing sound checks on track days? Akrapovic Evo would be my preferred choice. Cheers Paul.

    Removing Recaro seats

    As above. I'm removing mine to replace with Recaro SP-G buckets, anyone know what needs doing to the wiring to stop the airbag light coming up? Guess I just need to fit a resistor across a couple of terminals? Any help much appreciated! Cheers Paul.

    Top mount options

    Going to run my car in a few sprint/hillclimb days next year, but road going classes I'm looking at don't allow rose jointed top mounts. I know you can buy lower arm camber and castor bushes that will help a little, but does anyone know of any thing else available off the shelf to increase...

    Subframe options when fitting bucket seats

    As above really. Only ones I can find for sale seem to be the OMP ones, are there any other options? I'll make my own if needs be, but if there is a simple off the shelf solution I'd happily go for that. Also what do people use for harness points? If I make my own frames I'll incorporate them...

    Tyres for 17 X 8 Cup Speedlines

    As above really. What sizes have people used and what problems if any have you encountered? There seems plenty of room both sides of the standard wheel/tyre combo, say 30 mm odd, so I guess most of the rubbing stories people have reported are those running 17 X 8 with wheels that have a lower ET...

    As above really. Who do people use? Will be limited mileage with euro cover for Spa etc, and need commuting just in case I have to use for work occasionally. My 200 is currently standard but will be fitted with various bits over the coming months, as soon as I mention modified the price becomes...
