just had a good look through this thread as i have never come across it before but after seeing the car today i thought i'd have a look for one and a good read, hope it all goes to plan
really?
gives better mid-range torque over the 172 manifold but no way does it give 10hp, also as you later mentioned they're quicker that is due to the mid-range torque where the 172's don't have as much puff
quick google search and wolla

my b*****d rubs on Sportlines, that said i'v got 16mm spacers on the rear as the NS was rubbing the plastic inner arch so fitted spacers and now the O/S hits the arch and scrapes the outer sidewall, very annoying lol
the reno ELF gear is decent stuff, had it in my cup countless times and also not badly priced tbf, have got some Valvoline Synpower for its next change
had my little electrical issue fixed which was the reason for me going to sell it, also fitted my 16mm spacrs on the rear, safe to say it's staying put for a while longer now lol
decided J9 will be getting the few parts i'v got sat at home will be fitted, removing the private plate and then going up for sale, bored of clio's now so its time to move on
crunches in to 3rd on down shifts even when heel and toeing, always kind on my boxes on down shifts but anything above 30/40 and it's like you can feel the cogs through the stick, going to get another cup box at some point and get it rebuilt and swapped over
