Im not sure mate, i only weigh ten stone if that makes a difference, theres no spare wheel, i use optimax, and have yoko rubber, oh and i rev the f**ck out of it lol
I think the Ren 5 is a bit of a lairy choice considering they are so old now. I hate supras, theyre tacky, cheap, and little japanese men drive them. I was following a P1 in from work today, look nice and still hold their value. Plus that lovely noise! Insurance tho :os Id pick an evo if you...
Theres always going to be new cars which go wrong, those 172 owners didnt do anything wrong, it was just renault being renault.
Like myself, and you, all my mates treated their cars like a god, and all started on unmodified cars, youd have to be stupid to buy a modifed one!
I dont think you...
the 2.0 isnt that big, and remember turbos need intercoolers, thats the main thing that takes up space. Remember VW put a V6 in a mk3 golf, as well as the new R32, and alfa are doing the same with the upcoming GTA 147. Now id prefer a V6 over a turbo anyday.
My dad has a brabus smart for going...
The 5 engine was never a feat of excellence, as barry has said its old, it produced something like 45bhp without turbo (?). ive known 6 ren 5t owners and all their engines went. Two of them werent modified at all, one had a dumpvalve exhaust etc but boost wasnt up.
point is theyre not as reliable as n/a cars. They also need good cooling so youd need a bigger engine bay. Consumers want compact cars which will go on for ever.
Anyway, there are still plenty of turbo cars, ie the VAG group, vauxhall, ford, mercedes, subaru, mitsi, etc. Engines have come on...
yeah looks crap, subtle mods suit the later clios. I saw a 172 with a huge spoiler on the back, the guy had ruined it. Also had a massive RENAULT sticker takin up the whole of the back screen..really buggered the car up

I cant believe theyre legal to use on the road. Ive driven a powerful quad before in fields etc and the handlings all over the place so that must of been some kind of mutant
Dont you also get paid next to nothing? I guess its ok if you move out with loadsa ££££ though. I understand you can get R32 skylines for under 5k? But your not allowed to import anything from b4 1995 anymore because of crash regulations.
How far is it lowered? The fact that it only happens when going right (ie leaning on the left ) would point to the left suspension. After fitting big wheels you are supposed to check a number of things..did you fit the wheels yourself? How much clearance is in the arches?
I havent, though i will. I was told the reason its not fitted is because of the noise it makes, but you can get silencers. Also you cant have more performace and better economy at the same time! Its one or the other.
Ive heard positive reviews so im getin one, sorry ben !
lol. And the only time i have gone 120mph is when ive had an extra 2 people in the car, so im sure with my mirrors folded back, my shutlines masking taped and with everyone leaning forward id make 140..maybe :D
