    JC5 assessment....

    Evening everyone, New to the world of Clio's after being bullied in to buying one buy a friend. Wish he'd have bullied me sooner. Currently looking to sort myself out a few spares and with so much talk of gearboxes, I think it might be best I get one on the shelf for back up at a later date...

    Clio 200 cup hard to shift close to redline

    So I got this car used at about 100k kms a few months ago and shifting kind of sucks especially close to redline. It gets notchy and I have to apply a noticeable amount of force to get it in gear. It's doing it in all gears, also doing it when downshifting, and rev matching makes no difference...

    Rear engine mount

    Looking to replace the rear engine mount/ dog leg bottom mount. 2 questions 1. How do you modify the original one to be more supporting and not get wobbly beyond silicone in the gaps. 2. The one for the automatic gearbox looks way more stable, will it fit manual cars?

    Longer 5th for a 172 box

    Hello. I'm looking for some info as to what 5th gear i should use, for highway cruising. Not for top speed since its a daily and just a fun road car. More about reducing the highway revs for some mpg improvement, i usually just use the 1-4 gears anyways. I don't know the code of my gearbox...

    Hello I’ve been looking into getting an updated dog bone mount, mainly from Evol Engineering to be exact. However... I’ve heard bad things too, especially if every other mount is original/OEM. So what experience have people had with poly/up rated dog bone mounts?
