Hard to find with the offset or fitment for the car, even upgraded wheels is very hard to find, the styles that are close I don't like, I'll sort some out soon maybe
It's around 70 to 80 to change them over from a guy i know, I've been looking for wheels but not much about, and the ones I have seen I'm not keen on paying the price as most are rough as toast or wont deliver, I'll likely get a set next year hopefully or upgrade the wheels, I have been looking...
Look forward to it, my one is what they call oem+ I think 😂 just finished another quick refresh of the underside, did it 8yrs ago and it held up pretty good tbh with the bilt hamber wax, one thing not to do is powdercoat anything, it simply falls apart, properly applied paint is much better...
Most good ones are priced too high from what I've seen, can get some mk3's for sometimes not much more, one thing to know, they are a pain in the hole to work on, buy the best you can is my advice. They are just a total different car to the 172 in all aspects, and obviously much easier to drive...
A good spring with new dampers is much better on the road than a lot of coilovers on a light car like the clio, only the very best coilovers are worth fitting imo, otherwise there too hard, crashy and make the car skip when you hit any sort of bump when pushing on, makes driving fast on our...
Moly grease is best, a think layer on the end of the springs will help also, there should be a plastic spacer between the spring and helper spring, just incase this is missing
If its purely track then 3degree or whatever your after will be fine, if you use it more on the road, I wouldn't go over 2 max as its horrible to drive imo, pulls all over and never quite composed on the uk road surfaces, even worse when wet, I have roughly 1.8 I think it is and that's just bare...
Aye you'll need the correct key, if it's still an issue buy a second hand full lock kit with uch etc, people breaking them sellkits on facebook if no one on here
I had the same issues, new sensor on gearbox and its been fine since, remove wire, pull out in push other one in, takes no time, you could check power at the connection first, that's what I did and all was good
A few months ago my eml popped on whilst going to work, it's stayed on although the car runs fine as it always has done, it's due a cambelt/plugs etc in a few weeks but is there a scanner I can use at home to see what code it is and maybe sort it, I'm guessing it's a sensor somewhere but not...
Seems a good product but a bit more than I'm looking to pay, might just get a cheap one to do via my fone to see if it can give me a code for the light
Obviously i dont have clip (think that's what it's called 🤪) so would a generic code reader be decent enough for a scan, my 172 eml came on about 5months ago when travelling to work and has stayed on, car runs as should and have noticed no difference, I'm guessing it's one of the lambda's in the...
Something I'd love to get but guessing parts are hard to find, I've spent many an hour back in the day changing clutches & cables, turbo's, head gaskets etc, I loved them but they don't like a good daily hiding without breaking something 😂
Is there anyone who does titanium shim to fit against the inside pad on a standard caliper, it's to protect the seals on track from getting cooked so much and cracking prematurely
