As has been mentioned. I always use the chassis rails up front as my sills are butchered I use one of these for the rear though as there's not much weight at the back anyway

Few people iv seen have just sprayed it with black paint

I just remember there being a user name with Arron in it 😂

We're you on the old 16v forum back in the day?

There's one on ebay at the moment. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Clio-1-8-16v-/334291416010?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0 There's only ~50 left on the road atm so are getting pretty rare

Whats the reason for fitting a keyed crank? My belts due again soon

Just make sure you have a jubilee clip for the tensioner. Easy enough to replace. Need to do mine when I get chance too

Swansea 👋 There's a flamer 172T in pontypridd too Also a Williams and a pair of valvers in Newport 🙂

I bought the cheapest shittiest ones off ebay and are fine for just moving the car now and again. So should be fine on an even surface

Do you have any pictures of your old mk1? I have a mk1 16v and a 172. 172 is far nicer day to day. Made a good choice going for a mk2 to get back into clios 🙂

I like fitting sunstrips to my cars. Saves me using the visors. Easily removed too if you don't like it

I'm told it's regarded as one of the more accurate rr yeah. Iv taken a few of my cars there now and the figures seem to be about right Clio 1.8 16v ~135bhp from factory 225 with filter and exhaust

If you're on any of the mk1 Facebook pages would be worth asking for centre caps on there. They are a flat cap rather than the domed Williams ones For daily use I recommend Falken ze310 for the money as they are great value In this size

I have one removed from a 53 plate 172 if you want to check part numbers against it

They have lots of colours/options listed. Check their other listings 🙂

I notice the price has gone up now 🙈 still cheaper though

Im going to hazard a guess that these are the same ones listed with PMS as the stampings the same

The E-Tech enamel paint seems to work fine from experience

Il take a punt for £40 Iv ordered one so will see how the quality is. Thanks for your input

I'm due belts soon and my pulley is really worn and has a fair amount of wobble. I'm looking at these replacements as they are far cheaper than the Renault items. Anyone tried one or another aftermarket brand? Any input appreciated. Part number matches the OE pulley...

I run 15's on my clio and I always go for Falken for road use. Cheap and last ages I use them on my meg 225 too. Cant fault them really for the money

Not sure you took enough photos tbh 🧐

I'm just going from what iv seen people saying on other posts but I think the spring is different to the clio so you might need to swap that over. Il ask a chap to pop in here to confirm for you

Check ebay bud. Loads came up when I searched

I'm sure you can fit an r5 one? Someone may be along to confirm. They are available new

It just depends on if the cars timed correctly and looked after properly. Mines making above factory with just breathing/exhaust mods (172) 145k miles

Good discount with some sellers at the moment. Use FALL20

Anyone have any experience with both? Wondering which one to go for. Also which variant of the pms as there are 2 thicknesses Whiteline ARB is currently £160 with ebay code so slightly cheaper but the pms looks like its better quality. The whiteline always looks s**t second hand too as the...

Whats the issue bud, recently did the belt on mine with just the Haynes manual, just align all the marks and use the pin?
