    Valve springs with 428s? (damaged engine)

    Why dont you put the other head, tighten it with a little bit of modeling clay mixed with oil in the piston pockets and rotate the camshaft to see if there's enough clearance in all the valves? You should have at least 2mm in the intake valves and 2.5mm in the exhaust valves. If not, you have to...

    PH1 172/Saxo VTS Top Gear Test

    We have to admit that the saxo is also a beast, with 40 hp less it keeps with the Clio in most cases. They are both excellent cars

    Hennessey Venom GT

    I was just thinking that. Impressive though.

    My 197 project

    Hi all :D I just want to share with you guys my project, as you can give me some good advice for sure. I started with this Clio Sport, very basic spec, with 6.000 miles on it: I have done a couple of things to the car: -I changed interior lights to white -Silver vent surrounds...

    Do the new MK3 clios feel better made than the Mk2's

    After 100k miles driving a clio 3 I can say there's a definite improvement in the interior, even in the base model I first had. No creaky noises, door shuts like the first time, even the passenger door, that's always beaten to hell because of c***s, so I'd say is better done than the previous...

    anyone know if you can remove harness holes surrounds on bucket seats??

    Some of them yes, some not. It depends, but most of them have to be removed to put the fabric under them. They should be split in the middle and joined with some clips or glue, I don't know that.

    I'm a little lost about suspension for my clio 197...

    I am running stock contiSport contact's at the moment.I just ruined them all as there's meat inside, but the outside is shot. Maybe is just because the Continental tyres have soft sidewalls, but you guys can see what happens in this picture: If you look at the tyre (not the bodyroll, stock...

    197 economy!

    I track i get my 197 up to 29l/100 (10 mpg), and right now I have an average of 11.5 l/100 (24 mpg). Being a 2 liter i think is poor. An N/A 6 pot driven in the same situations could get the same results.

    I'm a little lost about suspension for my clio 197...

    So... I have been searching a bit on the internet and it doesn't seem like there is much info for the 197, or at least i didn't found it. I want to make my 197 a trackday car (although road friendly) and i've set what thing I am going to do with everything except the suspension. I know I am...

    Is a 27" imac usable?

    It's just me or I am the only person that thinks the 27" is too much? I just switched from a 15.5" crappy laptop screen to a 24" full HD screen with a Geforce GTX and I'm always lost in the screen, it's so hard to find the pointer on the screen. I guess I have to get used to it.

    Hi from Spain

    I don't get any parts from Spain. You have a lot more to choose from in the UK and it's cheaper, even with shipping costs. I've been buying parts from USA for a long time, but I found that in UK the things get here faster and cheaper, as I don't have to pay import tax. For example, a month...

    Buckets..what do you use?

    I know that this being in Spain can be a pain in the arse, but I'm sure you can find it in the UK http://store.carcareeurope.com/product.php?productid=507&cat=27&page=1 I fint this very valuable, takes no space and you can have it anywhere. Maybe worth a look.

    Hi from Spain

    Hi, my name is Jaime, and I'm 21 years old. I recently bought a CRS 197 and I was looking on here for some info. It's a really useful place, way more than the usual Spanish forums. Good thing that I speak a little bit of english and I can understand almost everything. I've had several sports...
