This is really annoying me now, i need to oder the shocks and get them put on within 10 days (mot failed), but im not sure what bolt spacing i should be going for! dont really want to take the whole thing apart just to messure, surely theres another way to find out? my car is a clio mark 1...

i just switched from the t1-s's to the t1-r's, both are brilliant provided you get the psi correct, i have mine all the way down to 23/24psi, i find that people like to fill them way to high at around 30 psi... feels like your driving on glass even at 28psi imo so keep it low ;)

anyone?!

ok thanks guys thats good news for me :) any ideas for the first issue?

Hello all, got a few questions for everyone who can help; 1. i changed the rear beam of my clio a little while back to a clio 1.8rsi beam (so i could have discs on the back), but sinse then my car has been rocking like a boat on stormy waters... So my plan of action is to lower the back end a...

Only answer this if you know thw answer for sure! if i have 2 speakers in a box, 1 facing out of the box and one facing into the box, do i have to wire one of the speakers up in reverse to stop them phasing each other out?

i over did one and it twisted off on the caliper, i didnt really put much pressure behind it at all! how tight are the ment to be done up?

i got 16 bolts/nuts and 4 gaskets from my local pat williams for under £10(you probs wont have one of them up there but must have something sim). mine were branded bosel or however u spell it! lol

hi all, just wondering if the rear disc brake piston (bendix type i think it is) unit is generic? ie, could i go down the scappy and get one off a megan of the same age?

i have a peco on my clio, its sounds nice and does aid the performance of my str8 thru system, but if im honest the god dam thing never actually fitted properly! when i rang peco they tried to tell me that renault didnt make my car and i was obviously stupid!

hi all, im off to pick up my new rear beam 2moz hopefully :) just wondering how easy it is to actually swap a rear beam out? is it just a few big bolts or is there more to it than that? can it be done in a day? if anyone knows of a step by step guide id be greatfull for the link ;) thanks all

thanks for replys. what a arb link? is that short for anti roll bar link? do i have one of those and if so where/what is it? lol.

Thought i might as well post this while im logged in! when i go around a corner at a faster than normal speed (i.e around a roundabout at 35) my steering seems to shudder/shake on the inner wheel, almost as if its loosing grip every so often then grabbing again. it could also be discribed as a...

Hi all, my rear drum brakes are up the creek, and the bearings along with them! so i thought whilst im playing with that part of the car, i might aswell change them over to discs, main reason is beacuse the pads are easier for me to change in the future. Now from what i understand, the only...

Hi all, i thought id start this in a new thread as no one responed in the old one. Im thinking of changing the engine in my 1997 1.2 clio, but not sure which to change to. i'd like to keep the 1.2 box so i have alot of pull away power. Will the 1.2 jb3 gearbox fit on the side of the 1.8 16v...

sorry to bring this up again. Can someone please tell me if the 1.2 box will fit on the side of the 1.8 16v? i know the 1.2 box isnt good for top speed, but im not interested in that, im looking for a large amount of pull away power... would the driveshafts still fit? Thanks

im also interested in doing this... does the jb3 gearbox fit on the side all ok? also whats the best 1.4 engine availible (i.e is there a diet/energy/16v)...? New ECU AND wireing loom need aswell or just ecu?

Just out of interest, why did you want to know all of that? lol. Seems very random...

static makes the amps do silly things and distorts the speakers? how much static do you generate in the back of your car m8?! obviously got some type of power station to cause that to happen... @ dink - Was in motorworld today lookin at a jbl competition sub (been on they're shelf for about a...

Can you get these for mk1 phase 3 clios by anychance?!

i kinda agree with this, i wouldnt call it the a supercar tho, much rather have a lexus or new volvo. They're all shite next to the Benz's... And tbh i live in devon, and the amount of BMW's i see pulled over on the side of the road boken down, building the little triangle stay in the back...

Impossible... Im a student and dont work! lol. -------------------------------------------------------------- I thought NOS wasnt road legal?

dosnt the fan have a fuse somewhere? might be dat...

Hey heres an idea! why dont you just get the ebay resitor kit? that will give you 50+ bhp easy and i hear you can now get adjustable ones too! i sell them for £1001, you can contact me at imhavingalaugh@itsacon.com hi all, bye all! :)

Hey. Any luck with this yet? i fixed mine, turned out to be the alternator belt was a bit loose. i could tell coe i could see the belt flailing when i rev'd the engine. I like it when its nice easy fixes like this :)

i know yours is a 182 and alot newer than mine, but i also have the same problem in my 1.2. its not the cat/mid box as iv got a str8 thru pipe. mine lasts from 2600 to 3000 rpm and seems to be coming from before the cat but behine the engine. also it happens (just like yours) how ever much...

ok thanks guys. i think i'll leave her as a 1.2 for now then, and in the summer do a conversion a a 1.6 16v. Will be a bit lighter on the pocket for petrol ;)

I dont really want to get rid of my car, so im thinking about upgrading the engine from a 1.2 diet to a 1.8 16v. Im aware that the loom/gearbox/driveshafts/ecu have to be changed, but just wondering it it will all actually fit/lineup? How is everyone btw... Long time since i last posted!

agree 100% with this comment...
