    BIGASH/FF-Racing X85 Clio Cup Racer Project

    I compared my 172 cup to my 182 using my phone as GPS speedo and they had the same top speed in each gear. One gear was slightly different but I decided I'd just made a mistake with that one.

    Just you wait until I swap my second extinguisher for nitrous (disguised as an extinguisher) :race: Can't believe you of all people didn't check the tyres lol, glad you got it sorted.

    Toastfrenzy's Tin Top, some say...........

    You definitely pull on me on the straights, my car does still have glass windows and no chopping of interior metal work though. I think mine made 183 on RS Tuning's rollers which suggests my engine was a bit tired. Although that wasn't the engine I raced with so who knows lol.

    Toastfrenzy's Tin Top, some say...........

    I've not taken it apart yet. Wil probably sell the RS2 but you've now made me think of putting it on my 182 lol. I'll just sell it though probably.

    Toastfrenzy's Tin Top, some say...........

    Similar has happened to me on here too lol. I think you're right on the mods front. I know I've not followed the same path lol but tinkering with engines is part of the fun for me. ITBs still to fit lol. Trumpets are hard to resist. I did wash mine last weekend, first work on it since Oulton...

    Chase Racing Clio Build Blog (TinTops Entry)

    I think it's great you're giving it a go. I'd love to have the time to do similar development work but I just want reliability for the moment. I'd be gutted going out and having major issues each time. If it all works out I'll be sure to copy you lol :) Any idea what races you're planning for...

    Do you know what caused the problem? Interested in if it was just a fault or something to do with the subframe mods. Looking forward to seeing how all your mods to the front suspension pan out :)

    Valve stem oil leak

    No. Your best bet would be dropping in a second hand engine.

    The everlasting ph1 ITB Build **GREEN-BUILD STARTS AT PAGE 100**

    I can't remember your full spec but 11k sounds like a lot to get back. Are you sure you'll get that? I looked at breaking a real high spec (bodies, cams, iconel valves, engine, gripper+box, shell plus all bits, cage, seats, lots of decent wheels and tyres, etc, etc) clio the other week and...

    How to hot wire a Clio 172.

    You need to complete all the circuits for position 1 and 2 and then touch the third wire in for the starter. I can't remember which is which, I'll see if I still have my notes.

    How to hot wire a Clio 172.

    It is just one screw to take it out though. I don't recall having to have the key in when I did mine.

    How to hot wire a Clio 172.

    And are you sure it is legit if he has suddenly lost the key?

    How to hot wire a Clio 172.

    Just unplug the barrel and stick some wires in the plug it will be dead easy with imobilser happy. There are just the 4 wires I think, corresponding to live and positions 1, 2 and 3. But I would take a multi meter. It would be even easier to borrow a barrel of someone else tough lol.

    The 519 172

    What have you got planned next then Dan?
  23. mark123

    The 519 172

    You can feed it to a catch tank or even just vent it through a little filter, that is all the RS2 does.

    Circlip welding

    I thought this was only a problem on the mk1? Not heard it happening on a 1*2 before.
  25. mark123

    Do you need to weld Powerflex wishbone kit - the new style?

    Yes, the sleeve to the wishbone - old style anyway. Mine (old style) said in the instructions that welding was recommended. I didn't initially but the sleeve popped out almost straight away, before I'd even done any hard driving.

    New style powerflex bushes (pic)

    Did you definitely get the right ones as I can only see non mk1 clios for the price you quoted.

    omp boss and wheel probs.

    I didn't have any problem with my horn. Although I can't really remember any specifics of fitting it, just cut the old plug off fitted two female spade connectors and done.
