10kg sounds realistic, I've just removed the power steering on my mk1 & replaced it with what they used on the mk1 cup racers, not weighed the bits but I reckon I've saved about 15-20kg

Maybe a bit of a long shot on here since it's for my valver :S but.... Got my new engine & gearbox in, all working fine except for the bit that the clutch wont disengage :mad: I'm guessing the issue is the cable, the ratchet or both :rolleyes: I haven't got a clue how to sort these and...

My ones, relisted http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Wossner-Clio-Williams-Megane-Low-Comp-Forged-Pistons_W0QQitemZ140337801674QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item20acc8e9ca&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 will let them go a lot cheaper if someone wants to deal outside of ebay ;)

I got my last pair of paradas for £56 off ebay :D 195/50/15 though

I'd be interested in knowing this as well but I bet the paradas are cheaper so more likely I'd choose them

Just done an engine swap on my car over the weekend...never again lol Details here http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=443273 ;) Can probably get the same engine minus the new bits for a bit less, just another option as you could look at finding a non runner for a bit less money

Do the rules say it has to be standard engine, if not look for any mk1 then buy my valver engine & drop it in ;)

Might be easier to find a valver, unless you've spotted 1 for sale iirc the main difference between the 8v rsi & the valver is whereabouts in the rev range the peak torque come in, the rsi's is lower down

Was up for sale from Jan - April, had no interest so I'm keeping it, new engine & gearbox going in this weekend

It's not a recent pic but any excuse :rasp: Editing fail :o

It's not a recent pic but any excuse :rasp:

Was going to say get the valver & put 172 widetrack on it :cool: The only real problems are just wear & tear items due to the age of the cars, no big deal in the grand scheme of things. In your situation I'd definately flog the 17poo, £3k pocket money and a mint valver would be win win all round

That looks like fun, have you got any details about doing that, cost, links?? I'll point my m8 to this thread as I reckon he'd like to do this sort of thing in his Vee, the poof daren't do a proper track day in it :rolleyes: so this may be the next best thing

Re: Mk1 Hybrid rebuild Tut tut Danny :rolleyes: that'll turn pink a lot sooner than naples will :rasp:

It seems you've spotted 1 of the original RS clios ;) 2live has it spot on Value wise, it all depends on the condition, mileage, what's been replaced & what hasn't. I've seen half rotten shitters go for about £300-400 and up to just over £2k for a minter and anything up to £4k for an...

Go for the V8 ;)

Got my wossner forged low comp pistons on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&item=140327674225, if anyone's interested outside of ebay they're £350 ono ;)

poor b*stard :dapprove:

can't he take it back? 14 day cooling off period on any & all credit agreements applies here doesn't it?

Never been in or driven a vee then ;) trust me they take the piss out of any 2.0l clio My housemate recently had a major service done on his vee at a stealer - Ezra Sugden Renault in Worksop, massive V6 enthusiast - cam belt (engine out job), clutch, oil & filter, plugs, new pads all round...

You're gonna wish you bought my valver in a few weeks :rasp:

looks very similar to a valver driveshaft

Railway electricians equipment for you :rolleyes: lol tbh honest he did spout some other crap about it blowing & why but it just went over my head :S so I just got on with smashing out the brake pad retaining pins :evil: made me feel much better

I think it's definately some kind of motor vehicle because of the paint left on my car and it was on the side facing into the road. I'll be having a look around on my street when I finish work in the morning to see if anyones car's got scuffs but I seriously doubt I'll find the culprit :dapprove:

Well to say I'm mightily pissed off is quite an understatement :mad: You'll need the full story, basically my driveway is a bit full as I've got a megane 225 in a million pieces on axle stands waiting for parts :rolleyes: I can usually pretty much squeeze 5 cars on the drive & in the...

try ebay for some yokohama paradas in 195/50/15, the last pair I got were £56 delivered ;)...

Don't really want to do that as it's supposed to be a 10amp fuse and it could wreck the lamp itself, and it's fcuking expensive to replace :dapprove:

Not a clio ;) but still a renault :rolleyes: Got myself a Megane 225 in part-ex for my civic and I've got a problem with the xenon headlights The xenon headlight on the drivers side isn't working, found that the bulb was broken so got a new one, put it in & it still didn't work. I then...

I'd say you've got no problem fitting it in, I've managed to get a door from a civic coupe into the back of my valver very easily

My valver flew through it's MOT this year, no advisories :D I knew it would pass with flying colours but was still nervous about it :S Not bad for a 14 year old renault ;) Got to feel a bit sorry for my mate, the MOT on his vee is up this month, nothing cheap to fix on that bloody thing, but...
