Was just speaking to one of the branches I work for in Basildon, Essex and they have a customer who does race cars and got a Pink Renault 5 in waiting to get a head gasket changed on it. Anyones on here or know anything about it. I told the branch about the Corteco head gasket which we can get hold of from one of our suppliers.
Was gonns say ollie but that old pink cars gone now ?
the original wasnt in a state to repair, im sure i remember some chat about a new shell or looking for one, but no idea..Originally Posted by Kris M
I think he said that its been resprayed to that colour inside and out, so might be having a change over to it
Yeh am sure ollie Painted a shell pink again.
my old garage's cup car was pink but i always just assumed that was ollies old car as i figured there cant have been too many pink ones
pretty sure it was number 90 ??
My new one is pink, and at my mates garage over in basildon, having a very trick custom rear beam and sump gasket done on it though... No doubt some mixup in communication somewhere.... After all I'm not that lazy about picking up spanners
Trick rear beam Oli?
Sorry I had a brief memory lapse there, it's not having anything trick done to the rear end that Matt and I haven't spent months working out at all honest....
Actually yep it is having a head gasket done pmsl.....
Ahh that would be yours then. Thought it was strange somebody asking for a head gasket for that car with a garage doing the work
Well I got the branch on the right track for the head gasket
Good lad Dale.
You gotta give us some info on this rear beam.
good luck with that tone.....
Sure, no probs.....its a piece of suspension normally fitted to the rear of a car...
Thats all your getting until its been tested
Hmm maybe but for that engine a cortico gasket would be slumming it a bit...not saying any more
this car better be good....Hmm maybe but for that engine a cortico gasket would be slumming it a bit...not saying any more
if it all falls off i still want to know
is it independant???? do i get that much?
Nope fraid not... Although purely as a technical exercise that's not the first place we'd would look to upgrade the standard rear beam for track work, sure you've had a few thoughts on the subject tony...
lol yeah, mine are unfortunately allways thoughts tho
