Im very interested to see what the Clios like with the GTT unit in.
If any body is near Grays Essex I would love to meet up and see what it goes like.
Let me know if any ones available please!

I know a fair old bit about MK1 Clios but I know bugger all about MK 2s!
What are the 172s like in terms of performance, how do the phase 1 and phase 2s differ?
What are the comfort levels like - what sort of standard equipment do they come with? I have never even been in one or found one to...
My mates got my old RT and it seems to get VERY hot very quick, the guage is litterally pointing north and with the summer coming up it cant be a good thing.
Hes just had it all serviced, oil changed, coolant flushed etc etc but its still doing it.
What do the mechanics on here reckon - I...
Since putting on my phase 2 boot strip on I think it looks bland without badges.
Thinking of doing something original.
Any one got any ideas/photoshop ideas for something original?
I was thinking the new Renault Sport badge?
Possibly a 16v badge from another make possibly the VTS 16v badge?
Can some one tell me the exact procedure for fitting one of these splitters cause yet again Im getting bored and want something new to fit and admire!
Does it need to be cut or shortened, do I need to glue anything or can it all be done with self tappers, does the original rubbery part of the...
As my spare wheel is totally fcuking useless whats the law on me taking it out?
Will I need one of those bottle thingys to carry around that the cups use?
If I get a puncture it will be an RAC job as have 17s with a 15" spare!
Then theres the fact I dont have the original jack!
All in...
Im bored with them, what can I do?
Do they come off and leave a nasty gap behind them?
Any one ever taken them off and smoothed the bumpers?
Any ideas welcome - not buying new bumpers though!!
What I have done in the last year.
So far, put colour coded handles, coloured phase 2 bump strips, phase 2 rear lights and boot strip, williams spoiler, 17" fox 6 premiers, lowered -35mm, oval piper back box and a de-cat, piper-x induction.
Inside I have ripped out the horrid yellow blue...
I was there on Saturday - not many Clios on the Cliosport section??
Saw some other ones - think the Blue Clio Turbo was there (Is it Nick?)
Any one else go - had a great day and had my photo taken withe the Fast Car girls.
The girls were superb all day !!
Whos going tonight? where is the car park that your meeting at? and last but not least - will there still be people there at about 7.30 cause I wont be able to get there till any earlier.
NickyB - tried PMing you but your box is full mate.
Of swapping a 16v unit for a GTT unit.
Obiously its turbo so therefore tunable.
What else has it got over the 16v, also though, what will it lose?
Obviously top end power but anything else?
Has any one done this - I know some have gone from 1.4 RTs etc but has anyone gone from 16v to GTT?
A friend of mine now owns my old 1.4rt that was lowered 35mm and had a piper stainless backbox.
The problem is the centre section of the exhaust hangs low and rattles under the car against the gear box. Also it rubbs the ground when its loaded.
Hes had the backbox removed and (he thinks) the...

Got an Eclipse 600w 12inch sub in a sealed box, need a new amp is this any good:

Will a De-cat and back box be as effective as full system including a de-cat?
Ive got a back box and dont know whether to buy just a de-cat, the de-cat and rest of the system or a whole new system (including new backbox).
I currently have a piper back box.
Piper stainless steel back box, oval slash cut tail design?
Nearly a year old and I paid £145 for it?
Thinking about getting a full magnex system so would wanna sell this to make some money back!
Got the clips to attatch my phase 2 bump strips (colour coded ones)
Also got to fit door hadles, phase 2 rear lights and boot strip as well.
Need to get a grill next month and nearly got the phase 2 look!
Whats the difference between the phase 1 and 2 instruments?
I know the phase 2 has...
I have seen a few Clio 16vs with R19 skirts on lately, theres one in the for sale section.
Any one know how these are fitted to a Clio?
Surely they will need cutting down, and what about the rear arch bulging out slightly?
Right, bulb has gone, have no light what so ever on the speedo and the petrol guage. (basically the left hand side of the instrument panel is in darkness!)
Is it one bulb I need to replace or are there a few?
Putting a de-cat on at the weekend, got a s/s backbox and a piper-x airfilter. Will this be very loud or VERY LOUD.
Been told the car sounds like an airplane taking off as it is.
Thought I was gonna have loads of money to get some thing cool done or may be another car but as luck would have it, I havent!
Reckon I might be able to muster some money together to get a de-cat and chip done with possibly a boost vavle.
Any one reckon this will help - I reckon it could...
What are the GTTs like compared to Clio Valvers?
Im itchin for some turbo power, but are they better or worse?
All I can tell is pounds for power they seem to be easier to tune?
Clutch totally went last night had to wait 3 hours for a tow truck to pick me up.
The battery went flat and I had no heaters either.
Any one know what a reasonable price is for a repair - BB charge £372 + VAT which will really break the bank, theyre too far away as well so cant go there any...
Is this a strait engine swap or would I need to swap the ecu, gearbox, manifold etc.
What kinda work is it and has any one had it done that can give me details of prices and work to do.
Is the 2.0ltr seriously better than the 1.8 - I know it revs less which is a shame.
Any help much...
I got some 17"x7" foxs with 205/40/17 rubber on a lowered Valver. (-35mm)
The problem is, I believe they are R5 GTT fitment as when I put them on they nearly took off my rear calipers.
I whacked a pair of spacers on the back (17mm as my mate had a set) but theres a little rubbing going on...
