Clio 182..0-60

Nice vid..

Just a shame 2nd doesn't quite make it to 60mph... the change to 3rd screws up the time..

Mine don't, hits the limiter just before. As does the one in the vid, I could be wrong but I'm sure its been mentioned before.
 
  Shhh
Ill make another then 2's up, that was on me own, so trying to drive and record with the phone on the hands free hanging..

Want to go out and try now! lol I'm really sure that mine hits the limiter before 60..

But the fookin' thing is off the road again, after 4 centre pipes, 2 manifolds and a cat, renault have finally decided it fit a whole new system! week on Monday.

Mine eats 60 in second gear.

See youre from Nottm NEZ. Thought it was the Bermuda Triangle for Clio owners?

I dont know anyone else from round here - I'm near Newark.
 
  Shhh
Im over near Skeggy way, im sure it does hit 60mph in 2nd, and 114mph ishy in 4th, but i guess i short shifted then...

Either way, i count it to be close to 7secs anyway.. :)

I've only seen 3 in the 7 months of ownership, Titanium non cupped, racing blue with stripes and an Inferno. I'm around where the A46 crosses the A52.

I was on track the other day and hit 135mph before bricking it!!!!:race:

It had a little left in it, but not much........the revs were v.high!

Er, that saxondale sort of area?

I'm further up, where the A46 meets the A1 and A17.

I see a Titanium 182 on my way to work some days on the A617, other day saw a Megane F1! Cool.:cool:

I'll keep my eyes open for yr Ti 182 next time I'm down the Forest.:D

PS Look out for a Monaco Blue 172 hitting the limiter in 2nd............
 
  182, SRT8, RS4, GT-R
Looks quicker than 7 secs mate. I definately can reach 60MPH in 2nd even before i had the limit changed to 7,800 RPM

They are pretty rare around here Notts. Especially Inferno's;)

See a few more 172's (silver/titanium) but probably only a handfull of 182's in the last few months.

PS, around 65 in 2nd in mine.

PPS, How's the car Nez?

Finally after 4 Centre pipes and 2 manifolds (in 4 months!) its having a whole new system, the lot front to back, next Tuesday. How was yours after the manifold?

I really want to go out and bounce the limiter in second!! But I'm in the VTR til the above gets sorted! :mad:

My booking got put back till tomorrow and Tuesday (previously scheduled for last Thur/Fri) as the car courtesy was with someone else:rolleyes: :D

Does that mean yours in in Tuesday (2 days) as well:eek:

Maybe they'll mix up and give yours a new manifold and i'll give mine the full monty treatment:rasp: ;)

I drove up to my Dad's to wash the Clio tihs afternoon and had the windows down while i drove along woodbourough road towards the back of Arnold. She's definately sounding louder (and rougher) as time goes by.

don't want to start an arguement... or a 200+ post count covering old ground... but...

are 172cups gearing different from 172's/182's? i continually achieve about 65 in second.

139mph on roadangel, 200rpm to go. I'm in lincoln!

Just twenty minutes up the road then DARKO.

Usually go shopping in Lincoln, Notts is a bit of a b4stard to get to from here.

ps....139mph, hope you were on private road/airfield/track and not on the A46 between Lincoln and Newark.:eek:

It is quite a straight bit of road..........I obey the limits at all times.
