Just my opnion mate but mine was an N reg phase 2 so cant c why the impact bars would matter. U could hav a tierd clutch if the transmission loss is too high. Did u strip it out? Have u got a cold air feed to IK? Was ur engine bay temp no higher than a 1/3rd if u were using an IK?

Rhys, i dont c why u shouldnt get under 15. If Craggy cant get it under 15 sec then there must be summat up with it IMO. I got 15.5 out of my Valver on my first day 1/4 miling. :D (IK, Xorst)

Valver 2.5k could c u get an alright 1 now!

I reckon ull find many a standard 16v mate. How much can u pick up a 2nd hand VTS up for now? :o

It really depends on budget. If ur only 19 im guessing u dont earn a serious amount of cash & ull have to be dedicated to keep a 16v A1, ie bid bills will come ur way evey now & then. If u really into fast driving and handling then the 16v is more than worth the cost. A 16v is by far the...

Do they both include an immobiliser? Immobiliser is just as important as an alarm IMO.

15.4!:o Any1 get a personal best today?

Is it just when ur windows down? If so mine did it but never solved it.

U need to take everthing with a pince of salt, ur opnion is what counts and no1 can disagree with what u think! ;)

So ur up-set because some1 doesnt believe ur 1/4 mile time? :confused: What was it? I dont tend to argue on cliosport and i find it a mint resource for tecnical help (BenR and such) but u will get people who chat complete sh*t. Dont let any1s replies bother u mate, just b the bigger man...

Pay a bit more insurance and get a 16v! ;)

Need to be a member but thanks. Anyway ive decided that the R5 aint worth as much as he wants for it to me so still looking for either a mint R5 or a black FRST.:(

Thought it was only the phase 2 with a performance clutch? Thought the phase 1 had a lighter 1 as OE and the phase 2s were heavier.

Cheers. Whats the liklyhood the elecy problem is more serious/expensive? Thanx

These are the probs (any answers and prices to put right please); Dash lights come on for no reason, engine temp, oil, battery, fuel. The engine is good and runs well so whats the deal? The rear needs bringing level as it is lower than the front. The thermostat switch needs replacing as...

Jus dont tell the money grabbing rip off merchants! :@

Nice 1 So switch ignition on and immediatly rev to over 2.5k ish for 20 mins?

Ring them to arrange a time; best to pay when its done if ur going down there anyway. Ur not paying for light clusters to be fitted are u?:o

If u have a performance cam fitted u should always get new followers so ive read. Is fitting easy when replacing the cam and how much are the followers? Thanx PS: Should u keep the revs above 2k after fitting for the first start-up for 20mins?

I thought grip round corners in the dry was very good with my 17s, not worse than my 15s, although it was a LOT slower and a harsher ride so i sold them.

YEAH In my, my mates whos got a 100k+ box in his 160BHP+ R5 and clean16vs experiance anyway. BB use a Megane 2lt 16v box on their Clio turbo.

The Clio 16vs spare wheel is identical to to Willy alloys exept its silver, which is what he may be thinking of.

The GTT box is made for 120BHP and built by Reno aswell so i dont know why you think the GTT box is better than a 16v. My mate with an R5 has a Clio 16v box in his! Up rated clutches are gonna be needed on any BIG power increases in any car.

Thanx for the quick replys, cliosport never fails to answer my queries. ;)

Whats their job? How do they cause tappty noise or wear? Thanx

Will the car run safely with it like that for a few weeks? Thanx As its my Dads spare car for running the Dog about in and im not worried about fixing it.

It suddenly just went though. Thought it was the road surface but has carried on since. I thought ur wheel bearing was fine if u couldnt move the wheel by shaking it with force? Thanx

Humms louder as speed increases. Comes from rear drivers side wheel on my Mk3 Golf (2nd car). The wheel doesnt move if wobbled or pull to 1 side when braking but the noise becomes apparent at 30mph and louder the faster u go. No steering vibration and wheel nuts seem tight. What is it? Can i...

Shiney coolant tank and the engine bay will be wicked. :cool: Would look good with an air filter as big as a football though! ;)
