    Clio 172 phase 1 turbo

    I used to have one fitted on 1 of my R5 GT Turbos, a chap in the RTOC made them and proved to be the quickest reaction to temp change of any gauge out there. When people fitted them to to their cars some were surprised at the poor efficieny of the intercooler setups they were using. I should...

    Clio 172 phase 1 turbo

    I suppose that's the thing when we have awesome weather, the ambient temps yesterday were quite high so imagine the track temps were more so. Chip do you have anything to read the charge temps?

    When do you stop? Seriously... when??

    I've spent thousands over the last 5 years on the 5 clios that i've owned. I've enjoyed doing it as people have mentioned it's a hobby and to me it's money spent from my wages and not borrowed from the bank or on a piece of plastic. I'm really enjoying the Petrol Blue at the moment as for once...

    Cup spoiler brake light

    I found it harder to get the old 1 out, I used a really thin screwdriver and a rag covering the end to gently prise it out from the spoiler ​Yep about £23 from the dealers

    uh oh , spagettio, snapped wheel bolts

    Purchase a torque wrench for the next lot of wheel bolts :) No need to go VFT. I wouldn't be without one, especially on my last Clio swapping track wheels for road wheels on trackdays.

    Clio 4 Cup Race Cars

    It was indeed, although going to RWS was a bonus. I went with a car club (RTOC) for a 4 day trip to Belgium to meet up with a few french and belgian renault turbo clubs for a big car show. We didnt book any tickets just walked in, its a free event

    Renault World Series - Spa

    I arrived back yesterday from a 4 day trip to Belgium and France which included going to the RWS at Spa Francorchamps, I was just wondering if anyone else from Cliosport went too? I've taken a few photos of the new Clio Cup race cars but can't download them to my laptop as the power lead is...

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Had it plugged into CLIP today as I had 6 lights come up on the dash. ABS, ESP, SERV, STOP and brake fluid low level. EML also on but knew that was down to a slight blow on the join on the decat pipe. CLIP was showing a fault with 1 of the front ABS sensors but when tested on the multimeter they...

    New Clio. From RB to PB

    Did a 240 mile round trip yesterday to buy this Clio 182 off a chap called Alex. To be honest i wasn't in the frame to spend all the money i had from the RB on another Clio BUT after viewing a couple of not so great Clios and potentially going into derv ownership i ended up going for this. I...

    Clio 172 price

    Buyers market and/or seller personal circumstances, I've had 2 sellers drop over £500 off the price just to get shot of them, 1 of em described as immaculate which on arrival turned out it needed too much work to get it up to scratch. As for going the extra mile I'm heading over to Swindon...
