    Fast road, but comfortable set up.

    Fast road, but comfortable set up.

    Thing with springs is that you lose all that important damper travel which can only have a negative impact. I don't have any experience on Eibach springs per se but my HR springs were removed after 1 month. I'm currently running the OEM non cup setup which is lovely for the price, especially...

    Hi sorry for the late reply, I just saw your message. I'm afraid that is a fully bespoke and one off design. Taken by the original Tom tom dash, cut and modified to accept 3 gauges. The facia is an aluminium plate which is fixed in place using a pair of countersunk bolts. Not very difficult to...

    Big Bens non Clio

    Same boat as you Ben - 2 TDs (Donni and Cadwell) cancelled so I now booked Brands and Castle Combe for Apr and July. Prices are high but let's face it, it's not like we've been out spending our money on anything these days:) Car is looking great as always

    Suggestions for a clio 197 suspension upgrade

    Yeap, exactly that^^ @ShantiT I can not find any pre 2010 non cup kit to fit on my car and to be honest I can't even find out where to buy it new - acolour codes on dampers and springs for pre and after 2010 are the same so I don't know how the non cup 200 is actually softer than then non cup...

    Suggestions for a clio 197 suspension upgrade

    What is your goal David? What are you trying to achieve? I would strongly advice against going CUP for the road - they are harsh and don't cope well with bumpy roads. My car is an R27 and believe it or not I'm running the same setup as yours - 197 non cup. I find them beautiful for the road in...

    Clio quick racks [emoji471][emoji469]

    Oh, this is interesting. Something I have been asking for years as I've always thought that the rack on these cars is not quick enough, even the @quicker by 7%@ cup one. How many turns lock to lock please mate? Does it retain the same angle? Do you offer any warranty if you build this? Has it...

    Fix for water on top of engine?

    what @turkie172 said is absolutely right. Without the sound proofing the rubber hoses are exposed to the engine heat and eventually perish and break. If I was you I'd be looking for the missing part of perhaps make my own before changing the hoses. Not that replacement hoses are expensive but I...

    Difference between 197 and 200 suspension set up

    Good luck with this - I tried to figure it out but I went literally nowhere. You see when Renault made the 200, they stated that the cup version was stiffer than the 197 cup and the non cup was softer than the 197 non cup. All good there. Then, they revised the top mounts, so the large top...

    Anyone Running a Lithium Battery on a Daily?

    I was running a Braille Lithium battery on my car for more than a year - never really had a problem but I had to be sure to disconnect when I'd be away or not driving it for more than a month. If Lithium batteries go flat then they are dead. Saying that, all the latest items have some sort of...

    R20 BTG - 200 Cup Track Car Blog

    Blimey.... You are right - you can not really "sign off" a job like this and chuck it in the post hoping that the customer won't notice, offering a refund is the minimum they can do really..

    Interior mat clips

    I'll take a pic next time and post. Basically you pierce the carpet with the needles facing upwards (as you naturally push the mat forwards with your feet when driving) and you cut two holes on the mat. After you put the fixings in place It simply clips into position - it works perfectly in all...
