Good choice :cool:

Have you taken the switch panel out to see if there's a wire going to it?

Looks like an awesome trip mate. Have a good 'un

Congrats mate. I'm not jealous. At all

I never thought that this sort of look would work on a Clio. That's really nice though mate, even with baby blue. I'd do the wheels in a bright silver personally, but blue is something different.

It's a necessity for the engine to behave in a normal manner. Someone posted about it recently, and gave an informative reason behind it... Edit: In this thread: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?676804-oil-in-inlet&highlight=oil+in+inlet

From your oil breather pipe. Your inlet manifold will have remnants of it too.

As titled - they're both parked on the same drive in the Barn Hall area of Colchester. You're 300yds from the 'ol dear's gaff. Howdy! :o

I remember my pollen filter was the same. Horrid to think that air had been passing through that muck into your car!

Untold levels of WANT!

That looks really very nice indeed. (Still don't like the front end though, much preferred the older one!)

;)

I'd like to do this to someone when they've fallen asleep

IIRC Turtlewax's real name is TurtleCrap

Certainly would be worth having for the lower panels of your car and the wheels/exhausts. Or even as a buffing towel. I might get me some for that very reason!

Looks like you've got it already... What does the kit entail? Turtle wax products are usually very basic in quality and ability, and for the money (assuming you've headed to halfrauds) a better alternative can be had online for a very similar expense. Best way of doing it, IMO, would be to...

Main dealers? Scrappies?

Your mate's one looks very nice indeed.

Shame really. Trust Renault to make a 'box that can barely handle the power it's designed for LOL

LOL, true! It's not something I was seriously considering doing tbh, but maybe one day. I dont personally think they can handle standard power if driven hard, but with a bit of mechanical sympathy my turbo did 10K miles at 250-300bhp (started less and I increased it) on a box that wasnt just a...

I'd really like to. I have neither the understanding nor the skill to do so, though! What can the gearboxes handle before that s**t themselves?

I've found (not that I intend to purchase or indeed carry this out) a Renault V6 with 66k for under £300. It would be pretty cool to shoehorn a significantly more powerful Renault lump into a Clio, keeping things reasonably OEM. I'm guessing a Megane 225 has been done before? Chip - that's an...

Even with a standard 3.0 v6 lump running 255, you'd still have a better power to weight ratio than a clio v6. If the flywheel was the same size it really wouldn't be that much of a challenge.

Be interesting to see if it was possible to put a V6 lump into the front of a 1*2. Pointless, as you could just pop a turbo'd lump in for less and achieve better results. Interesting though, nevertheless.

You could just get one of those fake K&N ones from your local friendly motorfactor. TBH that's what I'd do.

Depend if you want them afterwards. When I changed them for new genuine ones on the ex's car I ripped the old ones off. Brute force is your friend!

Spacers... I love spacers.

Ah... I won't need much then LOL

Really impressive Austin. A credit to you.

Interesting thread, and idea. I recently got hold of some Dylon Fabric paint, basically you paint it on and it dries soft, you have to iron it on to seal the colour. Didn't hold much hope for it if I'm honest, but it dyed some red alcantara type stuff in a friends car really nicely, and was as...
