as opposed to spending £40 on a new badge that offers no difference what so ever other than a slightly 'cleaner' rear end??
i personally like the dewipered look, i personally think that dirty great wiper ruins the symetry of the car, and tbh, have never missed having a rear wiper on any of my...
i think its just what the world is becoming! nobody wants to talk to each other anymore!
i used to get a wave in my valver when i saw another one, but tbh, i could count the times i actually saw another valver on the road on one hand!
Manifold, filter, exhaust and map will of course get you a few gains.....
however it will only be around 10bhp, and cost you about £800 to buy, and thats assuming you can fit it all yourself. and assuming youre quite a young driver it will hike your insurance astronomically. just pick your...
id also agree. its likely that the clip has come loose to the door loom and thats caused a bad connection.
you should be able to see the connection, its like a rubber pipe going from the door to the shell, it should have a clip that slides down on the chassis end to secure it to the car.
Also...
defs go for the dual optics over standard front headlight, theyre a million times better!
as for wheel, i think the standard ph2 sport wheels look kinda ghey, go for OZ F1's off the ph1 sports, they will suit the car a lot better!!
looks tidy though, exactly the same as my first clio!
iirc it vents fumes from the petrol tank into the inlet manifold to stop them escaping and poluting the atmosphere!
it can be binned but may bring up an engine fault. you'll also have to plug up a log of the vacuum lines that go too and from it!
welcome to cliosport!
do you mean that the bonnet release leave is NOT working?? what happens when you pull the leaver? it might be worth trying to pull the leave whilst tring to pull the bonnet up as they can easily get jammed!
or buy the cup and move as many of the good parts from your existing cup over to make it as nice as possible and break the remainder of your cup to get some money back!
why would you want to boost a 1.6 clio?? just buy a 200/197.
youll save money and have a much better car!
power mods on lower powered cars is a massive waste of money!! especially considering youll also (i hope) upgrade the suspension and brakes etc. but something thats already quick and enjoy it!
why did the alarm not go off??
and it must have been someone who knew something about clios, to know where the bolts to take the seats out are!!
so id be looking at any owners of modded clios in the area.
the wheels are valver ph2 wheels, i only put them on to begin with as they already had parada spec2s on them but tbh the looks grown on me, looks oem but still different!
its sat on gaz coilovers,
and as for weight, i have no idea how much has been removed, i didnt weigh everything that came...
spent what money on tyres and fuel?? id have still had to bought the heat protection in black so it would have made no difference financially!
and the steering wheel was originally meant to act as a spacer, but has the added bonus of removable, because im gay like that!
no power gains on it...
thanks guys, i know the blue loom wouldnt be to everyones tastes, i may change it when the engine next comes out!
and ye i recieved the plugs dude, and it runs like a dream!! cheers! :D
most of the time they bang from left to right because the bearings in the strut had died!!
first time i fitted lowering springs i fitted the bearing and bush in the wrong ordered and it caused the very aggressive bang!
however, if like some people you have a constant clunking / skipping when...
if you take the seatbelts out aswell, then its fine to remove the back seats!
my airbag light illuminates and goes away even though all the airbag paraphernalia has clearly been removed!
will this still pass??
also i have fixed bucket seats bolted to the floor, they cannot be moved at all, is...
just put it all back together and take it to a garage with an impact gun! will have it off with ease! have them crack them off and just dont tighten them up too much for the careful drive home!
Took a load more pics of my track car because the engine and suspension is finished!!
just the interior to put the finishing touches to now! very excited!
Update 02/08/2012
Ok so ive not documented this very recently,
built up all the track and subframe back on,
with the exhaust manifold and radiator aswell
looked very smart! this had the pollybushed arb bushes, and poverty spec non-pas rack!
the plan was to build all the track back on...
haha ye sorry, ive kind of slacked off massively with the pictures recently.....
but ill try and bring this up to speed if my internet and photobucket holds out!!
carpets weigh a lot! when you add all the sound deadening in!!
and defs bin all the airbags,
remove all the seatbelts,
fire wall sound protection,
roof protection,
power steering pump/pipes/rack/column
arch liners
ducting for the blowers
i dont see the issue here at all!!
and to everyone who says they dont trust hydraulics...... how do you think the brakes in your clio work?? and it takes a lot more force to stop a car from 70mph than it does to lift 1000kgs!
