Its the one thats closer to the outside of the car. Number 3 in that pic. The one without the balloon looking thing in line. Although I can’t get the fitting off that connects number 3 to number 1. Probably because the pipe is so badly corroded. If I force it, it will likely come off. But I...

I was stripping my car to tidy up the underside and noticed the small hardline section in the fuel pipe was really rotten. Has anyone got a custom line made that uses the OEM push on fittings on the tank and fuel rail? The price of the full fuel pipe from Renault is obscene!

I finally got a weekend where I could go down and work at the Clio. Got the whole back half undersealed now and got the springs changed on Gaz Golds and the subframe notched for the solid mounts. When I got the Gaz Golds 3 or 4 years ago it must be now, I put ACF-50 on them. They still look like...

Ahh good idea, basically could make these: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/335530462080?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=fok1e2kdswk&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=XFYM6ZaDRF2&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY I have no tax/mot/number plates on the car unfortunately. If I ever do a trackday...

I was wondering if anyone has replaced the heat shield above the back box (between the car and the backbox) thats hidden by the diffuser? Or has anyone come up with a better solution? Like would putting that silver tape on the shell be enough? My car is track only. My original heat shield has 2...

I wanted to get the cup racer ARB and new springs on this winter along with the subframe mounts. Rear brake hard lines aren’t great so got some new hardline to make them, I got the stronger hard line than copper that has a plastic coating on it. I also noticed when I had it on a friends lift...

I notice that my car pushes the front bumper out slightly where it meets the arch (mostly drivers side too). I haven’t bothered mounting it more strongly as I feel if it pushes out it wont wear as much lol Stripping the car makes it so much more enjoyable to drive, a light car is so good...

Nice. I currently have the front somewhere around the middle and rears anywhere from full hard to 5 from hard depending on the track/hill. I have actually just ordered those bushes lol. Didn’t know they had the cup racer spec to move the subframe.

Great news that the springs worked and arent bad in the rain either? What settings did you start with on the shocks after changing springs? I saw you said you raised the subframe, how did you do that? Solid bushes? Where did you get them?

Looking forward to hearing your feedback

Was watching @burrellbloke's thread and he got some cup racer spec springs for his car. So I bit the bullet and done the same lol I went for 450lbs front and 650lbs rear. Front is about bang on for what the cup racers used, the rear is 75lbs-100lbs softer. I'm a little worried that it will be...

Sounds exactly how I was plucking 650 lol! The I think cup racer is 750 or somewhere about there, sounded a bit mad

Nice! I think I will fire them an email to get some. I was also thinking of 450lbs front, how did you decide on rears? I was thinking of 650lbs rear which is still softer than cup racers, but maybe thats a bit crazy?

What spring rates did you decide to go with? Out of interest with the weights, mine was 1260kg with half a tank of fuel and I was 76.5kg. I have since stripped it completely and removed a seat but gone from half cage to full cage. Would love to weigh it again.

You email them for that price? The gaz website is £140 (including vat) a pair!! I’ll just order them at that price. What are you going for? 450f 650r? enquiries@gazshocks.com This email by any chance? Mine is full track car now with 1 seat, when I mentioned being hard for the road above I just...

Yea done a bit of research on gaz spring rates. I don’t think the rears are as common, they are a bit thinner to fit between the shock and the body, but I could be corrected on that. I think the last time I looked you can get gaz springs about £50 each and they seem to be cheaper when not buying...

No idea, they didn’t say in the thread

Had another good weekend out at the hills last weekend. Managed to get second on my last run which I was really happy with as the guy I got infront is quite quick! First place is a second and a half up the road with nearly double the power. Was aiming for 3rd, so delighted with second. This hill...

Legend, thanks. I was only wondering because when I get my decat I was wondering if I only need a straight pipe with a flared end or if it needs the lambda bung.

This is probably a dumb question, but here we go! When you de cat the car and the mapper, "maps out" the emissions light, does the second lambda do anything anymore (is it now just disabled?)? Can it be removed? Or does it still do something?
