    Do you mean the drain holes that go from the scuttle down to the ground? If so, what did you use. I've tried loads and mine still keeps blocking regularly.
     
  3. I used one of these (Mine was from a pound shop):

    Mine was blocked really far down, must have been right at the bottom. I was feeding the unblocker in for ages.
     
  4. Washed and put on another coat of C2v3 after having the wheels refurbed and powder coated last week.

    Was just about to send you a PM UBR26. Looks great, what do you think?
     
  8. Thanks mate, there are a couple of minor cosmetic issues to sort (scrape on lower front bumper and the handbrake arms are a bit scratched) but other than that it's pretty much bang on now. In the last few weeks it's had:

    New radiator
    Gearbox seal
    Decat
    Map tweak for the decat at RS Tuning (now running 272bhp/285lb ft)
    Forge recirc valve
    Front lambda sensor
    Plugs
    wheel refurb/powder coating
    Polarised wheel bolts (at Mark Blacks currently)

    All work done by Mark apart from the map, think I've spent about £1100 in total including all parts and labour. Christ knows how much Renault would have charged me!
     
  9. Just found out my AST coilovers have been delivered , job for mr black real soon

    Washed her and smothered her in a mid level polish for December. Noticed the bastard fireworks have gone through some of the lacquer on the roof so not best pleased about that. Need to get her to BTM asap at some point this month but I'll detail that in my progress thread.
     
  12. Fitted DS1.11s for Saturday
     
  13. The same and loving them, still want pfc's at some point, CL5's were also impressive but when down to 3mm the heat over wellemed and they literally melted. Will see how Ferodo's go
     
  14. Fitted pressed plates
     
  15. Tough coat on the wheels and tried T1 on the tyres. See how it does.

    I ordered some rear camber plates, AST adjustable top mounts and some H&R springs to do me til my Coilovers arrive
     
  20. Do they not do AST coilovers for yours Jamie, mine come next Saturday got them of a brilliant price
     
  21. Where'd you get camber plates Jamie ??
     
  22. -Jamie-

    -Jamie- RSM Moderator

    They do but i have went for different ones as their Customer service is shite.

    Bobsan, Custom plates, have got 0.25, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 coming, Aiming for -1.5 but need to see what the stock figures are at first and add from there
     
  23. I agree Curtis is a bloody nightmare, got mine from another sauce
     
  24. Yeah he is a bloody nightmare, had to go and see him personally to sort things before!

  26. A trip to Mark Black to have:

    New inner tie rods
    New ball joints
    New arm bushes
    Winter tyres balancing and fitting
    New summer tyres fitting to my summer wheels.

    Cracking job by Mark as usual

  30. Tracked the R round donington , brilliant brilliant day
     
  31. Sounds rubbish Steve !

    Fitted the whiteline ARB, harness mounts and the helmet hammock, just need the harnesses and the battery relocation kit to turn up and I can start to drive it and see how it handles

    Wired this in and fitted the passenger seat,

  34. Fitted some phase 2 rear lights to my Trophy.

    Wired the rear passenger side fog light up too. Looks crap with just one.

  35. Andy bond, did you get your drive shaft sorted by Mark black, good bloke isn't he
     
  36. Looks much better, how did you get on with the wiring for the conversion ?
    Which guide did you use or can you get adaptors to convert the wiring ?
     
  37. I just hot my multi meter out and tested them. Its very easy most are the same colour blue to blue orange to orange. White is reverse lights and fog light on drivers side black is negative. Not a bad upgrade for £35.
     
  38. Cleaned it and tried out autobrite Chery glaze I've had from an old waxybox, it gives a very good gloss finish but took some buffing probably because its too cold, I didn't wait long enough for it to properly haze or c2v3 is still hanging on in there
