No ones mentioned NOS. If he's running 300 now, 100 - 150 shot of NOS = ??? ;) Cheap too compared to modding it to 4-500 bhp

Thats not a patch on the orange ph1 172 Clio to V6 look, currently on Autotrader, for rankness

I have a question regarding the feature. Did you find out why the valve was found to be weak? - Was this a knock on effect from the cambelt / loose bolt incident?

PMSL - you dont get it do you ? :o

Theres other places that also do inlet matching you know. AWT and Stan off here (not sure of the company) to name but 2.

Just for reference, £43.74 + vat for 225 injectors. Part number 8200511099 (each obviously)

The block i mean. The block i have is cracked basically but i want to know if you can buy the block minus pistons, crack, oil pump etc basically just the external shell? Im guessing that its going to be far easier buying a complete bottom end in tact, stripping it down and working from there...

38mpg is classed as average according to Renault with these. Unless its very heavy constant city traffic, anything low 30's or under and my guess would be a problem. I can sit at a constant 90 on a modded engine and it never dip below mid 30's. My average is book figure all in all. As...

anyone ?

Are these available on their own and if so what kind of price? Bought a engine years back with a cracked water housing so all the internal components are fine, just not the block casing. Wayyyy in the future id like to build up a stronger low compression bottom end.

If you waited to a later date it would end up costing you more cash in the long run anyway

Most over rated mod on a 172 and folk moan about Maxogens.... ;) Going by the pictures, they look in a bit of a state.

Shove it on ebay. Bottom ends worth a tonne alone

Modded engine, over 110k on the original box and no problems. Was a little notchy a while back but this was to do with a slightly different grade of oil we put in. If you stick the correct grade of oil in, use the clutch ;) and dont do harsh shift downs then their fine.

On a Scooby yes but they look plain daft on a Clio

Yeah, their no where near as bad as folk make out. Price of them too. Got to be the best value for money tyre you can buy

Fines in my local rag for no insurance are 150 quid and a slap on the wrist. Police have better things to do than hunt out illegal mods on cars and going to court due to a techy between a insurance company and a customer - dont be silly. If he crashes with the mods on and dosent tell the...

Some maths on insurance: Q) - You crash your car say. What happens to the car after the accident but prior to putting a claim in?? A) = time Induction kit, yes but foam filter..............

Probably because it was needing set up? (mapped) - mine came with a ph1 airbox standard, Viper was a big improvement over that, (mapped) then had to bin it and got a Maxogen and that improved top end pull over the Viper. If you fit one and the cars running 'normal' then its not working right...

For normal to pretty spirited wet driving iv never found them to be a problem, or certainly nothing that indicates their any worse than the other well known makes. The way folk were talking they make out their like slicks haha :o

Just like basically all the Maxogen haters. Zero experience of one but still have a opinion :rasp:

Best tyre iv ever had fitted to the Clio by a mile!! Their wear rate is superb, awsome standing start grip and never had a problem with the wet grip, something of which i was worried about prior to buying. Infact, for road use, i find they grip a lot better than Eagle F1's in the wet!

**Symon: Retro fitted?? Reason i asked if yours was a non sport was i thought Clio 172's first went into production in 2000 with the reg plates starting off on W. Never heard of a V plate 172 :S All ph1's came with CD autochangers as standard. It was never a option.

You have a alloy bonnet factory fitted on a non Sport model? :S

Join up on this site and you'll get a decent discount on your exhaust ;) 5 or 10% off or something. Dont know without looking

I remember not long after buying the car i asked the dealers why my motor never had a shift light as stated in the brochure. They had a look on their computers and up popped a circular from Renault stating that from X date, the shift light was to be discontinued. Probably the same with the...

Sure iv seen your pics of this before unless it was someone else but got to say thats 1st class. Has to be the best CAF set up on the whole forum :cool:

I usually wash the body first then tip the left over water from that into a different bucket and do the wheels.

It was a few years back i sold it but dont give it away fella, folk do want them even if they are a bit outdated

I sold my old Magnex back box on ebay and made roughly £120, just for the box !! Dont give the thing away you fool lol Ktec stealth is a lot quieter.
