I run cross drilled AP racing discs F&R with no problems other than a little noisey when cold with pagid greys but superb stoppers, in the wet they dont hold water like plain discs.

I run the Snooper S6-R Neo with the laser pick-up mounted in front of the rad on the V6, and gps aerial on the sideglass. It is programable to show speed limits.

Valentines are K band american cr*p detectors. Buy a Snooper or Angel that will do gps downloads and detect gatso, specs, etc. They will not be able to outlaw gps black spot locators.

Mike - Did you make any progress on the Helix clutches? I have asked Robin to get my flywheel back from them as it was balanced for my engine and is now needed.

You running a Walbro or a Bosch Ned?

Think that Mike T has fitted similar?

Just jealous Andy, I have two garages, one holds two Clios [V6 & 182] and the other holds 3 cars and two bikes plus lofts full of Chrissy decs, etc. Both garages look like they been hit by a Tsunami on Boogy Street, New Orleans! The Clios only ever get cleaned when there is an R in the month...

Yeh, wait until his missus does a car boot sale or has nowhere to put the old Chrissy decs in January.

A tidy garage is the sign of a sick mind!

I seem to remember seing a thread off BenR, where, in his opinion a rr power figure was a load of poo? Running scared me thinks! EVO mag has been pretty honest about Renault cars they have tested thus far, including long term Clios V6 & 182.

Maybe Yozzasport & Angelworks should contact EVO mag and ask them to do a comparison test session between BBRs conversion and one they have done? Its very easy to dispute claimed power figures on a forum. Could be a good marketing tool for the winner of that session, as lots of 172/182 owners...

56.5, 04 Cornish Clotted Cream V6 255. Fully Comp £496.65. Two of the other cars I own are older than me. As we say in Cornwall: You abe old as t maid yin milkin shed - whatever that means!

EVO mag October edition has an article in the Driven feature on BBR conversion of a 182 upto 202 bhp. Conversion got a 4 star rating by Jethro Bovingdon. But he thought the price was a bit steep at £1850 including fitting. BBR conversions are usually rated pretty highly, especially Mini works.

Same as other Clio 2, you can squeeze plassy cups in front of the ashtray in the lower panel. Steering is quick enough mate unles you want to go hedge hopping!

Recaro Pole Position are about the lightest and still comfortable for road and track use. They are TUV stickered and you can get brackets to fit Clios and still run seat belt tensioners. I have done about 8k in mine.
