At first it was parts.. then was going down the sale for profit route..... but! The Megane was just not ticking the buttons for me, don't get me wrong good cars but just so dull & uninspiring compared to the Clio, I ended driving the PH1 around and leaving the meggy at home lol, thats why I sold...
Have been offered £1,500 & £1,900 Since completed! Don't want to sell it though :o
This is also my 3rd Iceberg on a PH1, thought there were only 99 of the things! all by chance as well!
Hasn't been cheap though, Just silly little things that really restore the car soon add up, Most of its...
Thanks guys, Really pleased with how its turned out, Paint work is in really good condition, Only thing I've done to it is Clay bar to remove the tree sap, Good machine polish/wax and she shall be mint :cool:
So a few months back a PH1 172 came up for spares or repair... For some strange reason I felt another could be handy for parts or maybe a cheap winter run-around (now my 8th Renault Sport lol)
So I bought this little number as a non-runner (well nearly) It started and "just" about ran with a...
You don't "need" the spacers, How much camber have you put on the coilovers? normally 1 deg. looks good on a 38. off set on 172 hubs, depends if you want the wheels out of the arches ;)
Things really have changed, Wasn't an issue in the slightest last year! Seems every things going down hill, won't be long till its standard exhaust only round track :dead:
I did all my track days last year with the pops & bangs calibration on and never got black flagged once! - Bedford, Brands hatch, Snetterton, Llandow & Castle combe, I wouldn't say my exhaust was scaffold pipe but certainly made some noise on full chat ;)
Your almost on the correct track, Testing showed the cams gave extra peak (once calibrated "mapped") but lost mid-range torque as can be seen in the graphs below -
Standard cams provide less peak horse power than after market camshafts but provides a good solid torque curve as can be seen in...
Look's ace Steve, would perhaps look more oem with the steering wheel re-trimmed in black suede etc to match the seats, for me it would be cup spoiler & some decent coil overs and just enjoy driving it!
I've seen a few faulty pressure switchs & had one come In with a damage engine loom that caused the same issue, as Jay has said, try a new pressure sensor & see how you get on
Over 25 cars running without it and we've not had any reports of cars developing a fault, We even had a car running sprint sessions with no issue's, mine, Toms & Nick also did countless track days between us with no issue's! There's no reason you couldn't put a bolt through it if you felt there...

Re: Any interest in a Karting meet?
Vicky what's the most amount of people allowed on the track? Very tempted, but will need to confirm nearer the time me thinks
