Seen as this is taking on a bit more advanced state now I thought I'd pop a thread up. Owned this little thing 18 months now. Started like this: A lovely innocent standard spec import Eunos 1.6 with 85k miles on the clock. Rust free (and still is to this day) So after the following we're...

so after the S4 went to its new home in the North, and the house going forward, we needed to get a couple of cheap runarounds :) so here's the first of them. 1991 Eunos Roadster 80k kms from new 1 UK owner who was a mx5oc member and recorded every tank of fuel that went, mileage per fill and...

as much as i hate to say it, having even owned a 500bhp audi i cant find anything that makes me giggle like a clio :( sure the audi was fast but being so heavy corner wasnt so fun, unless you really pushed it into oversteer, which again, was fun, but i kinda prefer sticking to the road rather...

with the clio finally on its way i've bought something a little special. always had a soft spot for these, but this one came up and is a little bit special!!!! spec includes: rs4 k04 turbos custom intercooler uprated manifolds porsche cayenne brakes and a fair bit more. power figures are a...

Hi all, Just in the process of fitting the new coilovers to the 172. Gone for GAZ adjustables and the adjuster ring on the front is catching the inside of the wheel! Anyone encountered this issue? Or are standard 172 wheels just a gay offset?

So today I picked up my fourth and hopefully last 172. Monaco blue with 68k and full history. Car is in good condition mechanically and cosmetically which is nice, plus it was fairly cheap! So to the plans. Coilovers - bought and fitting next week Seats- not sure what yet but buckets of some...

as above really, if a car has xenons as standard (ph2 172/182) is it an easy job to remove them? as in in the wiring loom completely different or is there a point at which you can just unplug the xenon side of things? obviously i know i'd need pov spec headlights and bulbs, and also washer...

currently trying to get myself what i hope will be the final renaultsport! BUT im struggling to buy one! every single car i look at is either sold and they havent bothered to remove the ad, or I win the auction and i never hear anything back! (this has happened 3 times in the past 2 weeks and...

Possibly a stupid q. My 106 is running cams, with mapping to suit. I disconnected the battery to fit an aftermarket wheel today and seems to run rougher since I reconnected the battery. It won't have rest the ecu when I left the battery disconnected will it?

Hey all, picked up a ph1 172 recently and a couple of times both the STOP and the handbrake light flickered on whilst i was driving home. they literally came on for a couple of seconds at most, and then off, and flickered as if possibly a loose connection? car drives spot on, temp is fine...

just won my 3rd and hopefully final 172 on ebay. think i got it for a good price considering the spec and miles, and hopefully as its standard its not been too abused either! wheels already sold and the interior is all gonna come out, which should fund replacement wheels and buckets, then...

Hi all, i seem to be having problems with my Ktec Stealth. Its fine for the majority of the time but as you near 100mph (on track of course) i get a weird slightly metallic, very loud rattle i had a rounded nut on the rear mount, but has been welded in place, and cant think of anything...

Looking atgetting an oil cooler and have an idea of a slightly different mounting point For those of you that have them, where are they mounted and how do they hold up to road use? Also how many rows would be sufficient for a Clio?

obviously we both saw each other, hence the nods of acknowledgement lol yours looked lovely. what exhaust was on it? looked nice

hey all, swapping ktec centre sections with another user. (he wants the quiet one and i want the loud one) and have a feeling there are some bits i need or dont need to keep his section is off a ph2 and mine off a ph1. am i right in thinking theres some flange or something i need to keep? or...
