Silver Phase 1 through Pirbright on two occasions. Gave you a wave today (172 Cup). Nice to see you on the same commute.

Renparts - genuine box and bags sealed And cheers bloke for putting me on to Alex White. He recently sorted my cambelt...said previous timing was off...

*Correction (I'm no mechanic)..can't be petrol I guess. Smells like it though...regardless it's still spitting something and engine does not idle quite as well.

The car is a 172 cup with an rstuner ron 98 map and pms stealth. Literally Just changed all 4 injectors and have immediately noticed that the car is idling a little slower after the initial start up phase and then begins to spit spots of petrol intermittently out the exhaust. Please could...

Nice one. I will focus my attention towards them

Cheers This is a route I'd like to take. Called and left a message with Alex today. Not heard back yet. I used the number from the AWMotorworks Facebook page. Fingers crossed I hear back.

The consensus on the forum is that the PMS would be too hard for the road. Not come to a conclusion on the vibratechnics/Ktec options? Should I consider another brand?

Righto, cheers for chiming in Bloke. Are you aware of anyone in the south who is up to the job? Once it's mapped and sorted, is it temperamental?

I have definitely got a bush change at the top of this list. I have an evol dogbone at present. I'm a bit cautious about the engine mounts. What are the noticeable benefits verses the possible increase in vibration? A diff would be nice. I wonder if a gearbox refurb might have to come at a...

Fair enough. I will see it that area of the car is seen to. Still open to other ideas

I have caught wind from many threads over the years chasing power is pricey for little gains. Is there much difference with aftermarket cams? I thought the car handled pretty well at present and I've started to feel the limit on bendy b-roads. I'm curious to investigate further gains in...

Cheers bozo, Some goodness to research into there. Any ballpark figure on cost for bush and rods? (excuse my ignorance)

Cheers. Wirral might be a bit far for me. But I could pursue this with the guy who's doing the work. After a quick bit of research I could not get to the bottom of potential lumpiness at start up and low revs? Are there any downsides and are standard cams worth keeping?

I have a 172 cup with 100k on the clock. I'm due to take the car in for a cambelt change next week with a specialist and was also considering, whilst at the car is having the job, to add any mods that might eek out any further performance gains. I realise the car has a few miles on but has been...

Could not catch your plate. 17.10, Frimley Green. I think you clocked me in a 172 Cup? Car looked mint, out of the corner of my eye!

Same 197 spotted today, Berry Lane going towards Woking at 7.45

172 Cup, Frimley roundabout, reg H7 NOT, lady driver. I was furiously waving at you like a lunatic from my 172 Cup as you passed me waiting at the roundabout.

Huh..what are the chances. That was me on the way to work!

Cheers Davy, please buzz me a message when you decide to sell!

Nice one, will do. I'm fairly new to the forum, but I take it that you consider here (clio community) a more reliable source than autotrader/eBay. I'm looking for a motor that is not on life support/fragile or in need of constant work. Am I barking up the tree by hunting down a clio (2000-2005...

I do have a look periodically at the cars for sale here. My budget is between 1500-2000 with the all major work done. Around 100k on the clock. Maybe I'm being lazy, I don't want to travel around the country to source one...I don't have enough time.

Fair enough...I'll keep looking.

The badge by the glove box is a clio sport plaque....? I was prepared to haggle. Did not notice the speedo. Weird. I'm starting to get tired of looking Cheers for your posts!

Sorry...not sure what you mean by that? Is this bad or good? Cheers

Nice one...cheers for the reply. I'Be asked to see it. I know this is perhaps a bit far fetched but if anyone is in the Gosport area who is clued up on these motors and had the time, it would be great if I could borrow your time to check out the car?...I'd pay for your services of course.

I noticed the front toe and Nurburgring sticker, I've just asked if the car has been on track much. Is this a concern? Cheers

1600, already asked about cambelt change...he said the guy i recently bought the car from was totally nuts about cars and was not a poor man, possibly obsessive, one was changed with the cam caps, the other when the dephaser was done. I hope this helps.

Cheers for the responses...staying well clear

I'm keen to go and check this car out: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/172664028716 Just a bit put off by the misfire. Just wandered what the issue might be and if it serious? The seller goes into a bit more detail about the car in the item description. Is £1700 too much? Suspected fuel injector...
