    Please help me with a sub question

    Cheers for all the help guys. I just measured my boot and realised that if I bought the Berolina enclosure that I was looking at, I would have about 5 cm of space left. I think I am gonna ditch this idea and maybe just go for a double enclosure running from a good 2 channel amp.

    Anyone with skirts and/or spare wheel removed

    Just wondered whether by fitting a pair of skirts, it would prevent me from jacking up the vehicle? Is there anyway round this? I am only asking coz when I had my corsa I had 2 blowouts and if I hadnt been able to change the wheel Id have been well screwed. Also if anybody has had their...

    Lowering an RT

    Sounds cool. Originally I had planned to get a full kit, but coz I want to do a load of things, I thought I would just get springs for now and then buy the shocks later on. How much should I be paying for somebody to fit 2 front springs and adjust the rear torsion bar to suit? Cheers

    Lowering an RT

    Okay am planning to do a number of mods in one go coz Ive got a bit of cash at the moment. Which springs would you recommend to lower my 1.4 clio? I was thinking Gmax, PI or Apex, and wanted a 40mm drop. Also does anybody know a good body shop in the midlands area? Cheers

    Anyone fitted a strutbrace to a 1.4 clio

    Cheers Nick. By the way Konahead, I think my Clio is a different model to yours. Mine is an 8 valve. When I said phase 3 I didnt mean the latest shape clio, or the one before that. Mine was the last shape Renault did before they brought out the 172. (If that helps) Cheers
