I need to swap both wheel bearings on the front of the flamer. Is it a case of OEM parts only, or will these be just as good from ECP...

Many people have helped me out over the last few months on here, and this is the end result. Special thanks to @Budgie , @Nick172Cup , @Rob , @Chip-mk1 , @Scrooge @AlexW @Dan@SJM @NorthloopCup and Luke the man with the camera skills :). If I have missed anyone off, I am sorry. It has been a true...

So, put a new engine in the flamer, wouldn't start. Machine gun type noise. Sounded and thought it was the starter motor. Swapped it earlier for a second hand one which is proven. Same noise still, no start. @Budgie and I have tried to pin point a bad earth. Charged the battery up. Tried to jump...

@Chip-mk1 @MartinR @Fastchip Guys, Henk, I've bought a reprog license and a 98 ron map from Henk. He sent back last night only one 'file'. Following MartinR's guide here (http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?667018-RStuner-guide) I was expecting both an RST file and a Cal file. The...

Tried a search but couldn't find anything. Can you remove the speedo / rev counter 'fascia' surround? They are silver on a ph2 172 and blue on a cup. If you can remove them, do you just prise them up with a small screwdriver? @Rob @Scrooge @Chip-mk1 @Dan@SJM @Budgie...

Guys, I've been having problems with the flamer for a while regarding it popping a brake fuse and going 50/50 on the bias. I thought it would be the wire behind the heatshield on the bulkhead, but it isn't , can't see any obvious signs of damage to the loom anywhere. What parts do I need to...

So, the flamer decided to spit all of its coolant out last weekend via a hole in the radiator. My question is this. I am intending at some point this year to ITB the car, and I am aware people replace the radiator with a polo one. Is it worth me doing that now, or getting a standard 172/182...

A few questions I need some help with I am afraid. I have looked at the guide, and searched and don't have an answer or missed it, in which case sorry in advance. I have a second hand RS Tuner. I wish to use it to map two other cars. It has the 98 Ron map and pops and bangs. To put the 98 Ron...

Right, since last years llandow trackday the flamer keeps popping ABS fuses. Usually if I go over a bump in the road or corner sharply or use the brakes hard. Swap the fuse, and the christmas tree dash goes out, only to then pop the fuse again as soon as I drive it. I have checked all the ABS...

Quite frankly, my life is now complete :) No more Reading meets in Nandos!

On my laptop, on wifi, the internet constantly connects and disconnects itself. I'd say every 7 - 8 mins or so. It is driving me insane, and I'm trying to get some work done!!! Please help a techno-r****d :)

May as well start the ball rolling on this. I for one am adamant I will return! Sounds like it could be even better than this year with; - Webber & Porsche back in the mix - More CS'ers attending than ever - More notherners attending, giving us more candidates for abuse.... So who is going, in...

Reading by the hospital today about 5ish. Looked good. Stickered it up early :) I'm doing mine next week, see you there!

Right, need some help please. Weird one this, and unsure if they are related; 1) Under hard acceleration, cornering or braking my ABS fuse goes pop. Cue Christmass tree dash. Put a new fuse in, all fine. Then go to press on again and Pop. Goes again. 2) Speedo occasionally is all over the...

Looking for some help here please. I have changed role at work and will be heading back into London. This means a commute of 1.5hrs each way, and I'm looking for advice on which tablet I should get to stave off the boredom. Details; - I have an Iphone 4, will this do the job? - I will mainly...

Pistonheads, CS sticker. WDxx WKD. I was in the flamer, good to see another CSer. Yours looked nice and OEM clean.

I'd be very grateful if someone with alot better IT capability (skillz) than me can photoshop the following wheels onto my car. Also feel free to give your opinions on what you think will look best, or if anyone has a flamer with the wheels below, please postup pics. Wheel options; - 16"...

Firstly, apologies for the pic heavy, poor photo quality (weather isn't exactly great) thread. The flamer has got a little impractical this week ;) Project thread for spec is here; http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?612638-Cub-172-s-Flamer-Project&p=9165029#post9165029 Let me know...

The flamer is going in for a roll cage, seats etc in a few weeks and i'm going for a 'white and black' interior theme predominantly (cage is white, black sparco seats etc). So, I got Chris (Autocrash) to spray me a few custom bits and bobs. Once again, his work was excellent and he is a top...

On site today, looked lovely.

Added a trophy spoiler to the flamer. Will let the pics do the talking, but thank you to Luke (selling me the spoiler, it lives on my friend ;)) and Chris (AUTOCRASH) for his excellent work spraying it and helping me fit it. The colour match is excellent. Before; After; And a last...

Keen to see pics of non-trophy clios with the v6/trophy spoiler fitted.

Nice sunny day, had received a new aerial and RS mats over the weekend, so stuck them on / in the car went for a drive and grabbed a few photos seeing as it was looking reasonably clean (only rubbish iphone pics i'm afraid). Comments welcome, good or bad.

Its my 30th in November, and I have the greenlight from the better half to spend another chunk of cash on the flamer again. We are getting married in Sept, so I have been saving and I should have some of the pot left over, roughly a £3kish budget give or take. I'm gradually turning the...

Are these sitting too high? I thought they should be flush? Car has Bilstein B14 coilovers on by the way. I can't remember if they have been like this since I had the B14's fitted. Any help appreciated. Right; Left; I'd say there is about 0.5cm of 'gap'. What do we reckon? Cheers in...

Lunchtime today, outside fish and chip shop opposite the petrol station. Looked lovely, private reg - began with A. I was the flamer that burbled past.

About 2.30 Saturday afternoon, guy driving, girl in passenger seat. Heading into Oracle riverside car park at 2.30ish. Looked lowered, looked good.

Friday at 7.30 mate. Sadly I was in the mrs micra, so you won't have spotted me.

Just had a voicemail from the car repair place my insurers are using to fix the flamer. To cut long story short, there were very minor scuffs and a dent inflicted on my front bumper as a result of an altercation with an electric gate. Now, I wasn't going to put it through insurance if it wasn't...
