I can't really remember too much as it is a while ago and I've only done it once, while changing gearbox and clutch with the help of someone else. From what I remember we undid the rear wishbone bolt that goes into the chassis, used a crowbar to create some space between bushes and wishbone...

Cheers Guys!! If you book through Castle Combe they are Semi Open pit days. We have done a few at Combe with Javelin and Castle Combe Direct, I prefer Semi or Open days, I am not a fan of sessions, great for your first ever trackday, but not so great if you have 2 drivers or more. With Castle...

Another Month Another Track Day Another Update We did a trackday sometime in May and the takeaway notes were: Raise suspension as the inner arch is rubbing/cutting the front tyres Why is the gearbox leaking oil.. It would help if you put the breather back in the correct way! The RainSport 3...

ODB Bluetooth Adapter for Android or ODB Wifi Adapter for iOS. Download Forscan Lite which will read the ECU codes, tell you the possible causes for the codes and solutions and enables you to clear the codes. Once you get used to your track car, the ST150 brake upgrade is freakin awesome. :wink:

I had P1383 VCT error and made it vanish. I think it was caused by running the engine with one side of the car jacked up, just after I had replaced the gearbox, changed the engine oil and replaced the Lambda. I took it for a drive, stopped after 10 miles and ForScan showed the VCT error, so I...

This looks expensive.. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FORD-RACING-PUMA-EXHAUST-FITTING-KIT-9098276-/322081304007?hash=item4afd8aadc7:g:GygAAOSwD2pXF1w2

Unless you can do all the work yourself, or have an unlimited amount of money I think you will struggle. Have a read of the the Projects that have done engine swaps (v6/RS/etc). LS engines or an E92 M3 engines are lightweight with a fair amount of power, they aren't cheap and they won't "drop...

Wow, 155bhp, without the FRP inlet!? How or where did you get the inlet ported? I see Unichip seems to be £400-£1200. :(

I'm looking at the FRP map at £250 which seems quite expensive. Pumaspeed do their own map for the same price which they claim is better than the FRP map. I can get a rolling road for the same price with mapping locally.. I know places can load the FRP map onto a TAPE ECU for a stupid amount of...

Very easy. Raspberry Pi, Pi Cam and http://pidashcam.blogspot.co.uk. I'm not sure why you would want to, the cost would be about the same as an e-Prance dashcam. EDIT: Doh, really should read all the posts before posting! :oops:

No it's just a random photo of an IB5. It's not a Puma, well, my engine bay doesn't look anything like that. :wink: Managed to get about 2.5L out of that hole, which I'm pretty happy with. :ok:

I used the bolt/hole circled in red to drain it. I filled it through the gearbox breather hole. Seemed to work!

I would say another vote for RS3's here, but I am getting them fitted on Wednesday, so I have no idea if they are any good. I got these as I heard good reviews on other forums (Clio/MX5 and other track biased forums). I was looking at TR1's, RS3's & PS3's, PS3's ruled out due to cost and TR1's...

Another weekend, Another Gearbox installed Here is the gearbox coming out just before it started to rain with hail! No more photo's as we were dodging the rain by stopping for coffee breaks! All went together a lot easier than the last time. I was able to source some gearbox bolts which came...

Haha! Enjoying this thread. Another option for cleaning your Calipers would be Soda blasting, worked really well for me with a cheap £15 kit and an airline, I did seal mine up so nothing could get inside. I did also use a sand blaster, as I had one to hand. I highly recommend VHT Caliper paint...

Thanks guys! I should be updating this thread quite a bit. This weekend I'll be fitting gearbox, changing Lambda, checking/changing rear shoes (they feel like they have worn to metal). Hopefully it'll be ready for Combe on April 29th. Replace gearbox oil every track day!?? :o You have got to...

TRACK DAY - Castle Combe 21st March Castle Combe Track Day. Weather was great, noise test was surprising at 96dB from the 86dB we had with the previous exhaust system. Car was running great, stopped for lunch, then we went back out again... Then something happened. Coming over Avon Rise at...

UPDATE I am a complete idiot, but I will also say I had a garage look at it and they said it was probably the cat under the car hitting the floor. After some reading I thought it was the link, but after some investigation it turned out to be inner wing brake pipe fitting, the clips have gone...
