Re: Clio 172 Cup Project!! Proper photos :evil:

I saw 3 sports in Wrexham yday! They are everywhere these days, nice to have one that is no where near standard :-)

Re: Clio 172 Cup Project!! Dephaser problem is starting to arise, so the car has been booked in with Dan in 519 automotive for belts and dephaser a week Saturday, before the mapping at RS tuning the following Thursday

Can't wait!!! I'm like you, I feel a difference unmapped! And the flat spot is in the same place. It's going in to change the belts and dephaser a week sat with Dan 519, and the mapping is the Thursday after.

Brilliant, thanks. Also I'm really impressed on how the car pulls now. Very pleased, mapping is in 3 weeks so I'll keep you in the loop. And brilliant news that you are still offering these kits. Best of luck to you

Gutted I had to turn around, lucky I did though, the coil pack was starting to melt on the manifold!! Lol

Lol, I know. Only my iPhone camera!! Any news on the 172 coil pack mount and bolts too James? It fell off tonight and burned the coil pack a little on the manifold

Re: Clio 172 Cup Project!! Thanks mate, I hope it will be worth the effort, I've got normal red VHT paint as opposed to the wrinkle effect, I do really like the wrinkle effect but I want the paint to match up with the manifold if I can. Cross fingers, did you do yours when the engine was...

Re: Anyone game for a meet in blackpool?? Fixed the car, ignition leads and plugs were damp. I will be firing on all 4 cylinders to Blackpool :)

Thank you :-)

Re: Anyone game for a meet in blackpool?? It has been acting weird since last night TBH, think ive got a little water somewhere when I was cleaning the rocker cover the other night, used water to wash the GUNK stuff off, so I'm gonna check all electrical terminals tonight and dry them with a...

Re: Anyone game for a meet in blackpool?? see you then m8

I bet some sections are hard to get to! I hope the set I've bought are more than capable of reaching the hard to get areas!!

Re: Anyone game for a meet in blackpool??

Thanks mate :-)

Nice

I'd take it back TBH, sounds like they might have knocked something off? I'm sure one of the experts will answer you in a bit!!

I didn't have this problem when I've done that to mine?? Does the steering feel stiff?

Plans are to paint the rocker cover red, throttle body red so they both match the inlets, then polish up the engine mount and engine hoist brackets leaving them silver so it matches the catch tank. Drilled the holes for the tank tonight and fit it in place (gonna get some better bolts tomorrow...

Got some of this to tackle the grime on the rocker cover tonight - End result was the following - It has improved but needs some more cleaning TBH. Ordered a brass bush off eBay to fit on a drill so I can get the top bits mint before spraying
