welcome to CS, previous cars look very nice!!

i found the pic advising against having them this way around when i looked online after you said it!! :( but if its ok for the audi R8 gt car, then im sure itll be fine on mine!! :D ph1s are where its at, i always liked the ph-quick sticker on them!! lol dmallett, defs specsavers time ;) im...

in order of likely hood id say most likely plug coil pack less likely injector wiring injector HT lead even less likely (but still possible) Piston rings - smoke Headgasket - smoke/mayo first find the affected cylinder, unplug ht leads until its clear which cylinder is misfiring (DO NOT...

finance :/ personally id never go for finance, especially on a mod, youll end up paying it back for longer than you have/want the car for!! if you cant afford it, dont buy it!! save and get these...

pushing the boat out arnt you?! why go for such high performance stuff on a 1.2?? sell your 1.2, add that coilover money and you have 172 money right there!! i think the rokkor kits are perfect for the 1.2s, yes theyre cheap, and yes theyre not going to make the handling amazing, but for 1.2...

ouch, sounds expensive!! but as said, finding another engine will be cheaper than rebuilding yours!! if youre lucky youll be able to find a bare 1*2 engine with a recent belt change for not very much and away you go! :) or theres a bottom end on the bay for £50 if you can change the head...

First car i got off my mum, so no complaints there!! Second clio, (mk1 F7R valver) was a complete heap tbh. Was told it had koni shocks - didnt was told it had a paddle clutch - didnt was told it had yokos all round - didnt water leak had been fixed by glueing some rubber over a big hole -...

i want my dash flocked so badly!! how much did the flocking set you back?? and who did it for you??

as scrooge says, its probs not a part listed for a specific vehicle, just a generic part theyll have off the shelf!! failing that, just go to a scrappie and take one?! lol

i tried them without centre to begin with!! wasnt a fan tbh. and as for the catches, there was nothing in my instructions stating that they had to be the other way round, and i can find plenty of examples of them mounted in this fassion on race cars, even one in the aerocatch home page banner...

if the misfire is bad it might ruin your car if you keep driving it, itll be dumping unburnt fuel into it!! coilpack is the box that all the HT leads go to that sends a spark to the plug at the correct time!! they go wrong quite a bit and easy to replace. might also be the plugs, my old clio...

i think they look awesome tbh, i need to tighten mine up as the ring rattles with the exhaust note! lol

theyre the pins i used, and what do you mean? boot shut with the pins?? like this??

cheers dude. but carbon airbag blank?? what carbon airbag blank??

thatll tcut out!! ;) any reason why you didnt opt to buy it back yourself?! could have fixed that up for pennies!

dont know what theyre there for, but its usually a good way of telling that the bumper has been painted or not. as for replacing them, why not just get a cheap small sheet of vinyl and cut it yourself and make them?! im sure you could get them from renault but theyll probs cost £32+VAT knowing...

you can get a pair of legal uk plates of ebay for under £10! theyre have the codes on them, but very small.

i did the above with just a cheap halfords universal exhaust hanger, worked pretty well!! but now that the mot station have pointed it out, they might try and insist you get a proper replacement! :(

couldnt comment, sorry. looking at the suspension layout of the mk3 i doubt mk2 ones could be made to fit, sorry if i got hopes up there! but im sure there will be a line of budget coilovers out there for the mk3s!

coilovers, springs barely get you a noticable drop!! do some research, theres a high chance renault didnt change the hubs from the old mk2s in which case youll be able to pick coilovers up pretty cheap!!

oops, sorry for adding possible competition!! good luck!! Daz i was thinking this, might be worth finding some other pictures of mk3s on 15's before considering most wheels from the mk1/2 range!! a guy on here had pink wheels on a black mk3 nonsport, pretty sure they were 15's and they looked...

they dont weigh any more than my oz f1's, i may consider changing to suppalaggera's (sp) at a later date when the tyres die on these!! this is the same set up as all of the itb, plus the ph1s had the fuel cut out switch. ill probs dig it out and refit it in the final build though. theyre not...

black badges, silver visions and 197/200 rear bumper would also look cool imo

the black and white theme works well!! serious lows and nice wheels will make it look ace, then just little touches from there!! white williams wheel?! not seen them on a mk3, i think theyll look awesome tbh...

decent garage with the proper tools will pop this out in well under an hour!! rear take about 10 minutes to do, 30 minutes all in to do the front, using a lift/impact guns/hydraulic spring compressors makes it a complete doddle!! might as well try it yourself if you have basic knowledge!!

i quite like it tbh, looks different!! bit like a focus ST exhaust set up!

what could really go wrong on a 1.6 so bad that you'd need to get rid?! tbh id just sit it out until you can afford what you want, whats the point in half measures!! lol, changing cars always ends up costing money ime, there will always be a few things that need doing and before you know it...

Omg, i remember reading some of this project back when i joined years ago...... and i saw the actual car during the london tunnel run last year....... never in a million years would i have thought they were the same car!! im absolutely shocked!! amazing work guys!!

very mixed opinion on the wheels!! i only put them on because they already had the paradas already on them, but theyve since grown on me!! No perpex windows just yet!! i want to keep it road legal and road bearable!! plus ive got to work to a budget! hence the standard power!! im only running...
