Ive also fixed a couple of green terminals in the white connectors causing issues before.
Ive noted on the clios that the engine bay fusebox cover is a s**t fit and can allow water in especially if the car is stood for periods of time without use. The one i fixed had water tracking down the...
As Efi said It willmost likely be a corroded/broken wire. I found one going from the white plug to the engine loom internally corroded on one i fixed recently with same issue, wire just snapped when wiggled.

Motivation has been low with this but need to get the ball rolling, engine building season is here now the weather is turning bad.
Started by removing the technomagnesio with the semislicks on as its going to be sat doing nothing for a while. Give them a mega clean up inside and out...
Track was mega busy i had a bm in my blind spot coming into the carussel so didnt drop in as couldnt judge his position. Took the top route which is smooth and i got the power in absolutely seeing him off and exiting before him.
No issues really apart from pulling in the carpark after the lap...
2nd October.
Reims then Nurburgring. Pissing down and R888R not the best combo! Was alright steady away though
Autobahns in the wet. Put my foot down and Extra was misfiring a little on boost i can only think it was the crap 98octane fuel.
Monday 3rd October.
Woke up to a nice dry yet fresh...
Jean Ragnotti was there, so got my Sabelt steering wheel signed by him. Ive met him a few times over the last 20 years or so and hes an absolute gentleman.
He said one more pic and puts his hat on my head. Epic
Parked on the banked circuit for a quick pic on parade laps. This was not even the...

With the kangoo currently out of action and the Paris/Nurburgring trip on the cards i needed a vehicle capable of the trip.
Was tempted to take the Trophy but its had its fun on the welsh weekender and the clutch is awful and id like it to be mapped for full power. The Blue meg 225...
Approx how many miles did you do on a set of bearings? I think ill get a pair in stock at that price. Interested in dust boots too, it was something i planned on looking at for mine.
That looks like a bit of threaded bar bodged on which has fained. Take it to a custom exhaust place they will be able to sort it for a few quid, just needs a new hanger welding on
Looks class in white, renault missed a trick not doing them that colour originally.
Regarding asr light, can turn it off with clip if needs be. I disconnected the yaw sensor on the trophy so the asr does not cut in.
Info on here regarding how to wire up properly so the epas ecu sees vehicle speed and rpm. https://cliosport.net/threads/epas-fault-help.841005/
Some pics on my Trophy thread too post #312 https://cliosport.net/threads/t-turbo-is-back.536356/page-8#post-12324798
Its awful with the...
Join straight onto the cut cables with an uninsulated crimp and cover with dual wall heatshrink. Ideally you want a hydraulic crimper and ferrule to suit, about £30 off ebay.
Id also consider wiring the epas ecu up to the car properly instead of the potentiometer setup, as it does not work...
The wilwood calipers are quite compact so i would imagine they will fit ok, its only the meg brembos that usually give issues.
I run et43 2118 with wilwoods/reyland rotors and bells and loads of clearance without spacers.
Great update. Much difference with the egr operational again? Ive not tried spinning it round yet.
Reminds me i must do cambelt on my orange dci soon. Overdue on years.

Done a few small jobs to the Extra. Serviced it, fresh Valvoline vr1 racing 20/50 mineral oil and purflux filter. Ive stuck with the vr1 as it seems like good stuff and oil pressure is epic on it. 4bar oil pressure hot over 3k rpm which is miles better than the average c1j that...
