    Adjusting front camber - standard struts - Facelift model

    I may be forced to use standard front suspension next year under new MSA rules. When the standard suspension was originally fitted I found that using camber bolts in the top position did not work as the back of the hub carrier casting hit the strut almost immediately - it looked as though there...

    Is there a fuse for the wipers/washers?

    I have looked in the fusebox under the bonnet and can't see one - is it located elsewhere? Have tried the search function without any luck. Any help much appreciated - thanks.

    I am sure that this has been discussed before, but have failed to find it via search. I do not want to swap the OE, but to find out if manifolds intended for the EP3 will fit correctly. thanks

    Gearchange - centering springs

    On the road I find the gearchange fine, but in the heat of the moment in competition I tend to go from 2nd to 5th more often than I would wish - driver error I admit. However I wonder whether slightly stiffer springs to bring the lever back into the centre (3rd & 4th) might help. Firstly where...

    Front camber change - bolt system

    I did this yesterday, but found that the spigot on the casting at the back of the hub carrier, behind the top bolt, prevented me from getting much of a change - is this normal? My compromise was to change the lower bolt instead, but this only bgave me 1.30' rather than the target 2.00, so all...

    Banging and crashing on launch

    Did my first hill climb event at the weekend in a 2005 car with less than 7,000 miles, and considertng that the tyres are gripless (seem to have gone off on the boat) I had an enjoyable outing. My plan is to stay standard for the rest of the season and then develop it over the winter. However...

    Exhaust system pipe diameter

    I was surprised to find that the standard system is only 54mm o.d. Does anyone know what size the after market systems tend to be - I would expect 60 plus?

    Facelift rear suspension - small link up from top arm

    Having finally got my DC5 I am waiting for the weekend to have a good look around it. But in the meantimeI have already noticed that on the rhs rear suspension, there is a small lever connecting the top arm to a chassis mounted lever. It looks like the sort of mechanism for self levelling...

    Facelift suspension changes

    Sorry if this has been asked many times before, but I could not find the answer in a quick search. Many after market suspoension kits are described as pre facelift, which implies that there was a change. Can anyone explain what the difference is please? thanks in advance.

    Suspension for Hill climbing - & good in wet

    I am 90% certain that I will change my Clio Trophy for a DC5. I run the Clio in the Production Class in hill climbs; it handles very well and is ultra competitive in the wet, but is lacking on the power front, and even if I were to spend a lot on the engine, would still not have the same power...
