Just wondering where people host there images now that photobucket has changed there policy... Preferably one thats free.... I used photbucket for years and now they want £££ for doing the same thing. I would like to put some pics up, but have nowhere to host them..... Ta..

Its difficult to tell what side its from, but I think it might be the new Renault top mounts. Theres a thread on Cliosport about the subtle differences.. http://www.cliosport.net/threads/standard-top-mount-differences.810985/ Ive fitted new mounts which came without the inserts, so i fitted the...

Just wondering if this ever got resolved, as mine seems to have developed a similar sound. It isnt engine mounts as they are new , 1000 miles old anyway. Although it has happened since i had the front struts off, whilst they were off ,,,ive replaced the top mounts and bottom ball joints, and...

So ashton, do you happen to know the code of the powder coat colour that they used. Itd be a MASSIVE help, not only to me, but to others that might want to get theres done. Ive had one set of wheels done, but they have turned out a little bit "bronze" anthracite in colour, rather than the...

All this wheel refurbing chat is good, but it hasn't answered my original question... IE the colour code of the powder coating that's almost thye same as the Ixus paint code. Hoolio. What did you use to polish up the Renault logos.? Ive removed the logos from the caps, they just need either...

For those folk that have had there Turinis refurbed. Have any of you found a very close match of powder coat colour to the original Turini colour.? I know that the exact powder coat colour doesn't exist, but there must be one that's very close.?? Im after getting a set done, and have been told...

Thats a sweet looking car, with a BIG price tag........

Hi all. Im after a set of the Renault logo,s that clip onto the wheel center caps. Ive had a set of Turinis refurbed and my plastic chrome logos are a bit pitted, so I thought , if reasonably priced, I might get a set . Anybody know where I might get some.? Ive looked on ebay, but it seems the...

Looking sweet Ben... Thanks for the part numbers etc.... Yes i know the feeling about entering the garage each morning... Been there done that.... Gordon. I had a whitelinbe arb on my car for a short time, but removed and sold it as i wasnt keen on the handling, but others love them, its a...

OOooo eeeerrr. Nice shiny new bits...:sunglasses::sunglasses: Itl be better than new .... Im interested to know how youl find the powerflexed rear beam, over the standard bushes... My car when I bought it had all the front bushes replaced with the purple powerflex jobs, and I always thought it...

Love Donnington....It realy flows.... How did the yoko ad08,s cope....

Personally im not keen on them, as they can scratch the paint, as when the wind blows the cover can move around, also if its wet for any prolonged period the car doesn't dry out, and can "sweat" under the cover... I have used a "carcoon" in the past, There like a bubble,,but they don't come cheap...

Ben. You mentioned about removing the rear axle mounts, are the bolt heads captive in the body, or did you have to get a socket on them from above.?? Are they easy to both get to and or replace if needed.? They don't look too hard to remove, its just the threads on mine are a bit crusty...

Personally i fitted the Brembo HC discs with a set of Mintex 1144,s. This was what George had reccomended... The previous owner had the ds 2500,s on but i didnt get on with them... Ive found this combination just right for my use...

Yes to the front arb, the ends look a bit crusty,,,,,, not sure if ide go all the way and do the front subframe....

A man after my own heart. This will be a winter project for me, as mine is looking very much like yours... Its currently in the middle of a front end refresh... Nice shiny new bits....:grinning::grinning::grinning:

If selling,,,,Ideve thought £10K+, going off recent sales.... Why not put them on a multi policy.?? Ive done that with 2 of my cars...Footman James do good deals.. Although the road tax is a pain, and can end being costly with so many cars....

Is this what your after... http://www.cliotrophy.co.uk/threads/another-diy-sachs-rebuild-service.53642/page-9 Just scroll down the page for the pics....

Cheers chaps. Thats the stuff.....:grinning::grinning::grinning:

As im having a bit of a spend on refreshing the suspension on my T . I remember a while ago somebody sourced some plastic spring protectors [or was it some home brew tubing], to help stop the front springs rusting, Ive got a set of Mark Fish springs on the car and love them, but as im having...

I did wonder why my photos weren't showing up on websites.... They will NOT be getting my ££££...

Well. Thanks chaps. I think ill be getting a set...:grinning::grinning: If I was to elongate the holes, its "forever". Where as if I get the camber bolts I can always put it back to standard without any ill effects... Mikey, it would REALY help if you were to "expand" on your replies...

Just wondering if many folk have fitted the camber bolts to there cars. Im not "chasing" -ve camber, i just fancy a bit more "aggressive" setting on my suspension. ie -1.5deg with aprox 0.12 toe out., ish... Im guessing this is a reasonable "fast road" setting...? If you have them whats your...

Just wondering where is the best and most competitive priced place to get the rear sachs shocks from. Ive seen the listing on ebay at £200 is that the best available deal.?? I understand they arent in silver but at least there proper trophy ones... Cheers Dave.

Yes but just wait for the chancers and timewasters, theres loads of them....:rage::rage::rage:

Cheers Ben. Thats what i thought, so there not a tapered ball joint ....

Well it looks like the previous owner has replaced the wishbone bushes with purple powerflex ones, also the anti roll bar bushes and the track rod ends, just need to sort through the receipts and find out just what else was done at the time... That time being aprox 15K miles / 4 years ago.. So...

So im having a suspension re-fresh on my T. Im getting my front struts re-furbed, just started weeping fluid from one of them,,and whilst im in there im looking at replacing the front top mounts with standard versions, and ,, replacing the rear shocks with standard units. So the car will...

My vote would be neither, Ive been lucky to own a few hot hatches , and also been back to re-drive one or two many years later, there NEVER the same as you remember them... Slow, coarse etc etc.... Just my thoughts...

Mikey, you cant just say avoid "xyz" without an explanation.... Please explain......
