The whole system is pretty low imo it doesnt even fit in the exhaust tunnel like (I assume) the standard system does. That said it must give a small amount of extra power as the car holds its own against 182's.

I made sure I got new exhaust rubbers when I bought it all of a few weeks ago and this is it frok the rear I swear the standard system sat much higher up than this one.

Cool I think as my car is mainly a road car with occasional track use the uprated ones would be best.

Blimey thats some serious money spent! Lools awesome. I'll be looking out for the Clios for sale thread when its all done ;)

I was thinking that was possible as the car doesnt feel very happy if say I accelerate and immediately back off the throttle. I was planning to replace this in the future anyway but it wont just snap and fall off will it?

Only really seems to happen in the first few gears with hard acceleration. It manifested itself first by only happening when the wheels were spinning but has gradually turned into whenever there is hard acceleration. Its held by the supplied D clamps I think there are 2 or 3 in total and ive...

Wouldnt they just need recaro clio 182 subframes? Or is it to do with the size of them ?

I was under the impression these and the clio 197/200 recaros didnt fit 1*2'S?

Im still struggling to find something for my 172 so far i have in mind Sparco R100 OMP strada OMP design 2 All of which i know will be a pain in the ass when it comes to fitting as they arent like Cobra's which are just fit and forget and come with all the fixings. The Italians are at bad at...

They look nice and if I ever did own them it would be kind of pointless as they would always be covered.

Seen it around a few times now till we happily decided to go the same way ;)

Think thats the ones that are In the 197/200 and Corsa VXR. They all look very similar anyway. Best recaros ive personally sat in were the Clio 200's. Awesome support.

I think I should start a business making replica Turinis, cup spoilers and Trendlines for half the price...

I think I have a bit of a reputation for opening threads like this online :D Real talk though. There's much better out there for the price. Im considering the Accord type r recaro's myself for the OEM look/comfort/support.

LOL

and prepared to pay well over the odds for what looks like essentially a slippery leather seat with okay support? The amounts I've seen these go for is outrageous! Im looking for seats myself and it appears Accord type r seats are basically the same just not leather and these go for a quarter...

But you dont want to do that because clio frames are w**k because they are heavy and make you sit high up...

Which one is it they remove the lower? I just thought it would look better as I noticed you hadnt gone the whole hog and removed the whole interior so assumed you wanted a bit of comfort/looks.

Is it easy to remove the inlet? As I've been quoted £112 to fit a matched inlet and would rather not pay that! Would the harness bar not have been better going to the rear suspension? I think you should get a ktec rear boot mat :)

The exhaust has been doing my head in as of late. Whenever I have been accelerating hard and annoying knocking/vibration keeps occuring and I've been scratching my head trying to find the answer... exhaust is fitted securely so I was thinking it might be a mount. Then I had a look in the...

How much was the 182 manifold? Is it a pain in the ass to fit? As the manifolds are in the "wrong"part of the engine bay lol

I think part of the problem is that enthusiasts want more but Renault think that ultimately they don't really buy many cars. Take the previous 200 for example... FANTASTIC FANTASTIC CAR but how many did they sell? I see an awful lot less of them than I see Corsa VXR's etc and herein lies the...

Chances are I will go up to GSM and try them all out before I buy anyway. They look more supportive though.

I don't think F1 drivers moan about them :)

Not sure they look enough support for.me but glws. So im working on New Years Eve and im looking at car parts LOL Looked at headlight washer blanks....feck off am I paying those prices! With mods I always use a strict cost vs gain ration :smile: Will probably just get rubber washers.. Ordered...

Good to see your enjoying it. I think I'll be keeping.mine for many years.

As said i'd have one...to.me the auto box sounds awesome even if I did read somewhere that its bang in the limit of its torque capacity. That said im not in a position to buy a new car thats only marginally better performance wise than my 172 bought for an astonishing £1700!

Why are you selling them? They are a nice seat but they don't look like they offer much cornering support.

Its all about cash at the end of the day. Most buyers of these cars are going to be 21-35 and a saving is a saving in their eyes. I also live in Essex which explains why I see so many ST's. I just dont "get" the hate. Most people go on about how they drove a supercar at an experience day and...

Its mostly all unjustified hate towards the Clio....even Chris Harris says that at as a road car its better than the ST and judging by many videosit looks to handle at least as well as the fiesta! As for 5 doors....well thats just handy and paddleshifters are awesome!
