some people want fat rides, thier mates are impressed with thier RS6 replica rims and lowered with black`d rear lights etc. they would own a MK5 gti is they could afford or an S3 as yes these cars are silly well built and superquiet on the move also tunable, i couldnt think of a more uninvolving...
another clio + point is that its ok in fords of water but know i have a lower grill intake pipe im always wary of my engine taking big gulps of water (it is a fully vertical pipe though)
get a dci 100 m8 if you can stretch there good for 123bhp from RStuning and 190lbft torque (more than 182) ohh and there just about the lightest clio at 980kg 30kg less than a cup ! ins grp 5 and 65mpg with a remap i think it will really pull in gear more than it has any right too.
that vids pretty good my m8 had one of a CTR v 172 with 100 shot of NOS it was STUPID fast, blew a piston and engine died after a few goes on the laughing gas, sadly the bloke died last year in a M.bike accident.
new gti 197hp or older one at 150hp ? ive been suprised for a few seconds against a 150 one in my last 172 but after the torque party trick the 172 came on cam and pulled much harder but still for a few seconds i didnt think id get passed. so by that token id imagine a new GTI (even though they...
^^ agree my last 172 was an import, if it wasnt avalible at that price i wouldnt be on here as reno at the time wanted 14k for used 172`s with 20k miles on bloody rip off merchants. i got my brand new 172MKII at 12k
bought my cup since then used but if i did buy new it would be import as you...
yea forgetting the corners that guy was taking the cup does well to keep up on the straights, ive ben up against one on the road that had exhaust on ad running about 230hp and it pulled about 8 lenghs at silly speed. standard though its more like 4 lenghs at silly speed lol.
has you cup got...
well there are about 158-160 cup owners on here according to that recent poll maybe more maybe less. i wouldnt think there would be more than 1000 well looked after 172cups in the uk curerntly on the road, but who knows ? i thought they only imported 1500 to start with in 2002.
looks like meganesport will be growing in forum users as eventually all 182 and 172 owners want something with the attitude they have come to expect with the williams/valvers MK1/MKII RS 172/182 etc.. the megane still has it and looks great
sorry, when it was standard i should have added. power to weigh tis greater in all RS clio`s than ctr so upto 100+ i wouldnt expect any difference apart from the new RS which has less hp per tonne than ctr.
one for me too, i can afford the £300 extra for sportscat but id rather get a decat have more power and put that £399 towards a remap. how easy is it to remove add the catalyser if your a total muppet like me ?
ive just read 15 posts about styling ? errk thought this was a enthusiasts forum. wtf.
sorry but the pulsar gti looks like a toster oven but it has proper followers etc.. its not about styling you cliosport muppet heeds its about cheap thrills and performance per pound
ohh and tha 197...
so whats the difference from the road ? why is there a load of people who scoff at 172`s beating S2000`s or anything really yes even evo`s when you look at vids (not just that one) and see a big power car geting eaten by say a 120hp pug gti because someone can drive properly. all this big power...
ok go to a third party "tuner" on the web and pick out an aftermarket spoiler then get it sprayed professionally as an exact match and then get it fitted properly for £300, in that price add a front splitter ohh and go to lap-tab and get 4 wheels sprayed professionally in anthracite £40 per...
btw weeman this is the latest renualtsport clio and this is a forum dedicated to cliosports m8 ? it doesnt matter if its been posted a thousand times, just dont look if it bothers you.. its a disscusion forum, and this topics is far more interesting that "wax`d car" threads
we will do a poll...
grp 17 insurance ? it does 130mph like a 1.8 vectra and has 158 bhp perton
considering a 182 has 170bhp pertonne and does 139-140mph and is ins grp 16 id expect the new RS to be ins grp 15 !
get a panel filter and relocate the air feed for better breathing, also make sure the IC has good air flow even if it means cutting some bumper.
you can get upgraded FMIC`s for the dci. what power/version is it ?
also you can get grp N diesel exhaust on import + RS tuning (leeds) do a good...
ukaskew im with you on that, ive bought a home and an musing about a DCI 100 and selling my cup. i know when ive got 125hp and 180lbft + some lowering and 65mpg + grp 5 insurance and no points on my licence i wont regret it every day (just every other lol)
your right though, lets say you roll...
Re: lol... non RS clios heaps of sh*t!
its too true ^^ a 1.2 can do the same, all you need is coilovers and some sort of induction/exhaust for fun noises and your away. i dont race others, private driving is the thrill to me, i even sold my 172 to get an older 172cup as i wanted even more...
i guess if it had been racist people would agree with the desicion but seen as it was about Gheys and there some genuine gheys on this forum, payed members even then it becomes a bit more offensive not to ban for the same reason. its ok calling someone ghey in a school playground its what kids...
