Well its been 1 year since i bought my PH2 172, always planned owning one at some point and i dont regret making my purchase. I've owned a VTR Saxo, Jordan Civic, VTI Civic EK and a Williams 3 all been great cars with their own individual qualities. Anyway onto the 172 ..... January 2011...

Thanks for the help. What sort of price am i looking at to get a new altinator? New? or refurbished? Is this a common fail with these engines/altinator type?

Woops, that might help. I have a PH2 172 with aircon. Had belts and retainers changed in August too (4000miles) ago.

After a month or so of trying to find out where the noise from the engine bay was coming from i got a second opinion from a fellow Clio Sport enthusiast. Reckons its my altinator bearings. Need some advice on how to fix this problem? Can i just change the bearings? Is a new altinator needed...

Love the PH1, agree the TD's in silver look great! They 15's? Question for you. What size of Samco 90 bend is that you have? Diameter etc?

Yes that was me, had been to Ocean Terminal and was heading along Granton about 4:30pm. Car was fairly clean could have been cleaner. Oh and its a Ph2 172 BTW ..... and currently for sale :) http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?609023-Renault-Clio-Sport-172-2003-£3200

Looking at buying a decat pipe for my ph2 53plate 172. The pipe i've seen has 2 lambda sensor holes, will this be suitable? Does my ph2 have 2 sensors at the cat? Thanks

Thanks folks for the + comments. Yeah lowered on a set of springs on Sunday, 35mm drop and very happy with arch gap and how it sits. Can still make it over the speed bumps too ! Also the car got its Belts done last week, timing and auxiliary, tensioners etc ..... running sweet.

Had the 172 now for 6 months. Slowly getting little things done to it to get it how I want it. Hope you like.

What size of brakes discs and callipers are you running on this car ? They look pretty small and standard for a Brit car ? You might run into a bit of over heating/brake fade with discs that size over a long race distance.

Paul from Edinburgh. This is my second Renault Clio, previously owned a Williams 3

Sorry not sure if this has been asked earlier in the thread but what wheels you running ?

Had a few of these myself and have to say I loved every minute of owning and driving these cars ........ I really want a S2000 as my next car ;)

I didn't use any on mine above, prefere the natural carbon fibre look and feel.

Nice cup and nice pics !

I have found my favourite Cup on here now, looks mega ! Nice to see silver wheels and not the same old anthracite ones. Good work :)

I can second, third and fourth all those superb mentions about driving and owning a Williams. I was the lucky proud owner of a Williams 3 for 2 years and loved every minute of owning that car. Lost all pics of my Williams when old PC packed in :(. Its the car I wish i could stick in a garage...

Sorry no link for Iphone charging holder, bought it out a Phones 4 U store last year, will try find it online and post a link for it.

Karting was and still is my life since I was 8 years old ........ not much I dont know about them, least there's one thing i'm clued up on.

Junior Intercontinental A is now called KF3 not KZ1 .......... KZ1 is gearbox karts the old ICC class ;)

I live in Colinton area, near city bypass. Thanks very much everyone, just tough keeping it clean at this time of year.

Sorry not got any pics of phone holder. Its a holder that plugs into the 12v and the phone sits in it and charges. I have a 3.5mm lead going from my head unit which plugs into top of my I-phone so it plays through stereo and charges at same time. Would like a Parrot kit though :cool: Thanks for...

Then laquer the parts done with 3M ...... job done :)

That looks good, what wheels are they?

What wheels are they? They look dam cool !

I'd have gone straight out and bought something like this. Then would have put all my spare time into testing and getting all the drivers upto speed, getting in a few sport and saloon races in during the season......
