In my book standard = NO mods or stripping!

Not quite... Only mods were a Pipercross Viper and the rear seats were out, but the car was still fairly new with only ~3500 miles on the clock! Was a good un though. :D

;)Well I was going, but looks like Im going to Creamfields now... I used to run 14.5secs in my Cup at York, Id be impressed if a 106 GTi gets into the 14s as the last one I raced there was an LAD tuned one when I had my 306 Rallye (14.8secs) and I killed it! Standard 172s generally run...

How far away from Lancashire are you? Theres a good one here, they may have one, Ill get the number for you...

I had this dilemma when buying new last year, ended up with a Cup for various reasons... Depends if you want the toys or not?!

Get any good 10W40 semi-synth, summat like Magnatec is fine.

Since when?! Mk1 V6: Power - 230bhp Weight - 1335kg P>W Ratio - 172bhp/tonne Mk2 V6: Power - 255bhp Weight - 1400kg P>W Ratio - 182bhp/tonne 182: Power - 182bhp Weight - 1080kg P>W Ratio - 168bhp/tonne Cup: Power - 172bhp Weight - 1021kg P>W Ratio - 168bhp/tonne...

See my last post about gearing...

Theres literally a couple of bhp-per-tonne in it, nothing to make a real difference. The CTRs 0-60 time is screwed up by the fact that it only does 56mph @ 8200rpm in 2nd gear, the gearing is very close, so the extra change makes for a marginally slower time. In the 0-100 dash, which is a...

Unfortunately there is no stripped out Cup 182

A nice Civic Type-R would be a good choice... http://forum.cliosport.net/display_topic_threads.asp?ForumID=16&TopicID=105235&PagePosition=1http://forum.cliosport.net/display_topic_threads.asp?ForumID=16&TopicID=105235&PagePosition=1 :D

The Clio is quicker, but the 206 looks nicer IMO

Doh!

In an older car, yes.

Usually safe to assume there is approx 1 gallon left, so Id be filling up soon Si

Ive just got a Sony CDX-F7500 and its superb...

Yeah, I have a Nighthawk Black one, its deffo the best, although the new Cosmic Grey is nice.

Not sure actually... more than likely though...

These are driver aids which help and not miracle workers... If you drive around like a nutter relying on these electronic aids then you wont last long!

Yup...

If I am around Ill come along... Im sure I can persuade a certain orange Clio to come as well... ;)

Not quite... The claim is they have never had a "VTEC System" faill under warranty, not the whole engine!

Doubtful... the Corsa is not a heavy car to start with, both cars have a 2.0 engine in there... My CTR runs 14.5secs too, that defiantely weighs a lot more than both cars and doesnt have much more power than that 14.5sec Corsa.

Agreed, my Clio Cup ran 14.5s with just an induction kit...

Well mine had gearbox failure, broken engine mounts, brake problems, etc... Id call those serious faults, and there are a hell of a lot of common problems on the Clios. Tends to be the small, stupid, niggly faults that annoy people most though, and the Clio has loads of these. Not saying the...

No, I mean the "old ones" as in the EK9 CTR, DC2 Integra, etc... not the later iVTEC models like the EP3 CTR. Mine is a 2002 car as well, same as yours, and they do have a kick when VTEC engages, but it was like an explosion on the older cars, that was what I meant...

Having owned both, the Civic is built better than the Clio... Its true, CTRs aint 100% perfect, but then again nothing is, they are however one of the better ones! Onwed my Cup for 9 months, bought it new and it was in the garage all the time for faults, wheras the CTR goes to get a...

Its ok... I robbed it from somewhere else anyway... :oops:

Oi... ;)
