As above, I understand the linkage rod to the gearbox may differ, but is the actual white plastic housing bolted to the tunnel and the stick the same? Thanks

Does anyone use the 197/megane seats on track? Are they supportive enough? Looking at using some for another project ( 3 door and need rear access so cant go full buckets) but its a lot of money if they're not similarly supportive. Cheers

Not for a clio application, but more as a general question, would people be comfortable using an aluminium flywheel on a fast road/track car?

So I've had a Nexus 5 since they were released in 2013. I pre-ordered then at around £300 and got a phone that was perfect for me: Enough power to work smoothly - I cant stand laggy interfaces when flicking between apps, but I'm no gamer Large, high quality screen in a phone small enough to...

Hi, The perforated leather wheel in my car is wearing due to mileage and I'd like to restore the leather before further damage occurs. Has anyone done one? What kit would you recommend? Thanks

I've just ordered a ratchet repair kit for my 1/4 drive ratchet and wanted to get spares for the other two for the drawer. I found the 1/2" one but no sign of the 3/8" one on the website. I called my local branch who informed me that they arent on the website, but couldnt confirm whether they'd...

I need a cam cover gasket, the one for between the two halves of the inlet and the seal between the cam cover and the upper inlet. Anyone know of a decent mail order supplier? Cheers

Hi, I have an ABS light I'd like to diagnose and I have a generic bluetooth OBD dongle which I use with Torque. I've tried various apps, but none of them want to talk to the ABS module. Has anyone managed to get anything to work apart from CLIP? Will RSTuner read the ABS? Cheers

I need to bleed my ABS pump and check out an ABS fault code if anyone can lend me the kit, or come and have a look for beer money? Cheers!

I've had these recommended by a few folk who use them, but no one with a clio. I currently run CL RC5+ and theyre fading so I was going to go for RC6E. Any first hand exerience on a clio? Mine is standard engine and box, coilovers, cage, whiteline roll bar and polybushes/spherical joints. Cheers

I'm looking to buy a bottle of each, but hidden postage charges anoy me. Best so far is Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00TQ3JUGW/?tag=cliospnet01-21 https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B008AV7V8K/?tag=cliospnet01-21 Where does everyone buy it? Cheers

My aircon was last regassed in 2012 and its stopped being properly cold now so I need to get it regassed. I tried halfords, but they just do the DIY in a bottle affair and have no ability to detect or trace leaks etc. Who have people used recently that they would recommend? Thanks

I've had my wishbones off the car and have now refitted them, but I'm really struggling to get the arb ends back into place so I can fit the clamps. To the best of my knowledge its all standard 172 spec, barring purple polybushes. Anyone got a method which works? Cheers

I know the ID is 12mm, but would like to know the crush tube length and the OD please if anyone has one of the shelf? Thanks

Inspired by @VIICarCare posting this: http://www.cliosport.net/threads/enhancement-detail-offer.789126/ If the price was right, I'd be tempted to get both of our cars done, just a proper clean and protection, nothing mental. Sadly Berkshire is a little far away! I'm aware of the big places...

Hi, I have a clio 172 which has had a replacement gearbox with no speedo sensor hole. Does anyone know what the pulserate is on these boxes? Ideally I need to know how many pulses the dash sees per revolution of the diff and then I can rig up an alternative sender. Cheers

I'm looking to see how some of it goes together with a view to fitting it around my cage and also if it's workable I'm in need of a headlining, front (door), rear and boot cards, front carpet and headlining Cheers

This morning has been fun so far.... I need to find insurance for my VW Bora, which has about 50% more power than when it left the factory, for 25k miles per year, including around 5k of business use and I have an SP30 from May '15. There are companies who can deal with each of those, but very...

The rad in my 172 track car looks a little ropey so in order to ensure continued reliability I'd like to swap it over the winter. Which rads and from where have people used before? I dont want to buy one and have it blow its tanks! Cheers

So yesterday I tried to fit my cooksport springs, managed to assemble the spring and topmount onto the dampers without the need for spring compressors (as usual with lowering springs) but I can't get them onto the car as the ARB seems to hold the hub too high. Are they really this long that I...

Do conventional RHD ones work correctly with the stupid french linkage on the clio? I'm concerned the whole spoiler shape will point the wrong way? Also, does the clio have normal hook ends on the arms? Im looking at these...

Standard 172 engine, no oil cooler, what grade do people use for track use and where is reasonable to buy it? Cheers

For keeping dust and general crap off it inside a garage? I dont want a waterproof one as they tend to hold moisture inside and the car will be indoors all winter. What do people recommend? Thanks

I've got a set and the drivers side is knocking when on the ground but of course tightens up when you jack the car up so its taken a little while to find! I see they do service kits, has anyone here rebuilt a pair? Whats involved? http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2847&appid=2 Cheers

Looking for a second budget commuter vehicle to rack lots of dual carriageway miles onto and these look to make a degree of sense. Who's got one? What sort of fuel consumption do you get? Would you have another? I believe there were several different engine power options, anyone know the...

I went to replace my balljoints at the weekend to find my car has 10mm holes, in spite of having the correct ARB mounts for a 172. I've filed out the holes and fitted the 12mm joints, but I just wanted to A) find out where these wishbones are from ad B) are they the same geometry as the 12mm...

I'm looking to replace the balljoints on my clio as they are visibly different and one looks "meatier" than the other. Short of buying new OEM wishbones and then re--bushing them, which I want to avoid as mine have the PMS stiffening plates, what brands are people using? Car is used mainly on...

Odd question I know but bear with me! My clio is stripped, caged and has spherical topmounts, PMS spherical rear beam kit and polybushes elsewhere and the noise it makes on rough surfaces would have me pulling over in any normal road car looking for broken bits. Is this normal, or should it be...

Hi, I have a clio track car which has had most of the obvious weight removed (stripped, buckets, cage etc). There are a few areas I'm aware of I want to address, such as the electric windows, and others I wish to leave as it's used on the road (central locking for instance), but where does...
