Hi all
not poted an update on the car for a while. I was half tempted to shop the motor in for a megane 250/265 but opted against it for now. Next year maybe :)
Whats new?
KTEC sprint spoiler- still not sure, only seems to suit certain colours, white and red yes but not sure on yellow
New...
I may have confused ppl here. I have a 59 plate clio 200 (not the new 1.6t).
To be honest the car up until 4,000 rpm is pretty much useless and most regular motors would keep up. I was hoping for extra torque low down to give the car a sense of urgency & smoothness.
If the remap cant deliver...
Cheers for the comments guys.
Im based on Milton Keynes (south east). I had no idea that the remap by KTEC was considered that poor!!
As someone mention above I might see what RS tuning has to offer. Remapping an NA motor will never produce significant gains, its just the torque and...
Hi all,
not the first time this question has been discussed, but looking over previous comments there is no clear cut verdict.
I cant really justify getting a full system and sport cat at the moment but was looking to alter the torque curve and prevent the kangerooing effect.
The clio really...
Hi,
in typical fashion my friend has bailed on me at the last minute, leaving me with a spare ticket.
If anyone is from the milton keynes area and fancies tagging along let me know :)

Hi guys,
if anyone is interested in the mammoths foot washmitt let me know.
My friend is expecting a large delivery shortly so I might be able to grab us a deal.
Cheers
when mine went i physically couldnt select anything when cold. Even after 15 minutes it would struggle, you had to crunch the first gear shift and things eased slightly from there.
If things are notchy when its cold might just be the gearbox fluid but when the syncro went on mine you simply...
Hi all,
was looking for a new wash mitt to replace my naff meguiars one (third one in 6 months and no i have never put it in the washing machine).
After doing some research I came across the Mammoth's foot which is amazing!! Slightly more expensive than other alternatives but is far superior...
The car has finally had the box replaced.!!
Noticed a few things whilst driving it back
1) still struggles to engage a gear even after you have let the car warm up for a few minutes, I expected this to stop with the new box
2) the clutch is now ridiculously heavy
However gear changes feel alot...
my friend pointed out that there was no sign of copper grease being used, which is why the pads rusted into the runners.
on the upside no more sqealing :)
I had yet another surprise today.
Took the clio to my mates garage and stripped the rear brakes. The pads had rusted into the runners like the fronts had done a few months before. Because they wernt retracting when you let off the brake pedal they were binding pretty bad. On closer inspection...
