From this picture it does look perfectly possible. Especially with a knackered engine mount. I wasn't sure how the exhaust was routed. http://www.zcars.com.au/images/clio-...team-r2712.jpg

Swaybar at back of engine and letting engine move too much?

I'm looking at buying a 197 - it's making a strange noise pulling away - a rumbling sound from down under the footwell area. The company I'm buying the car from say they have now fixed it. The exhaust manifold where it has 2 pipes had sagged and was rubbing against the anti roll bar. They...

Will PM you about this.

I'd really love a Storm Grey 200. That would be the perfect car but they seem to be about 11k. Thats really my budget so it doesn't leave money to buy any parts for it. If it happened to have a Megane 225 engine in it too that really would be perfect.

Ive had a 172/182 before so wanting a 197/200. Are the changes just cosmetic then between the 197 and 200?

Hi All, I was wondering if I can get advice on buying a 197 / 200 car for track days only. The car will be totally stripped inside and suspension changed for coilovers. Therefore what is best out of 197/200? 197 cars seem to be a lot cheaper and if I'm ripping the car to bits would this be...

Sure that was from Opie Oils Fred. No offence but since when does anyone use genuine oil filters - no one I know does. Also don't forget this isn't a road car with a filter stuck on for however many thousand miles - it's a race car and the filter was changed regularly. It's a standard engine...

People will need the XAP unit too if they are wanting to use them in a car - not spares. :) What ecu are you moving to?

Could still be an option but nothing prompting me to do that at the moment Andrew.

Twice lol! I was hoping we could go on track together for a play but Stephens car decided against it. :(

Sure we could come to an arrangement. :p:D:race:

Are you selling it?
