my mate bought a carbon one pretty much mint for £200!! is it ally?? in which case it might be worth slightly more than a steel one,

My climate control on a 172 is only giving off hot air?? Any suggestions?? I don't really know much about these!

35 bids to a nice round £9,000. for what is in essence, a metal plaque and piece of paper!!

just as i was accpeting that i wouldnt work, to go and show me this tony!! from that picture it looks like your mount is very similar to the R19 mount!! implying that the set up will work!! lol

would it be strong enough to not avoid using the top mount completely?? and would you be able to make another one at a cost?? i dont have any welding/bending facilites :( also, pics!! if you have any to hand!!

Sorry to post up extra threads about this, but would like to get to the bottom of my mounting issue. can someone please post up a picture of a bare mk2 front subframe?! from the top, and possibly from the side! thankyou

was it much different than that of the R19 mount shown above?? based on this image of the 172 mounting system, the front mount is identical, and im 90% certain that the dogbone will also be identical, its just the front mount im slightly worried about.

i already have vibratechnic's mounts and a pollybush dogbone, but they still allow a lot of movement because the top mount is so far from the where the force is. plus i love the look and it makes it much more easier to work on the engine. i can get the mounts for £40, and sell my mounts for...

sounds like what mine did when i was running far too much camber!

2inches of movement in the rear wheels and you didnt notice when looking over the car?! I bought a car that turned out to be a heap once, the only person you can be angry at for that is yourself. as for (almost completely unrelated) bonnet catch, im sorry to hear that, and hope it all gets...

pics look great, cars look fantastic. some of the pics look like screen shots from forza! lol

Perhaps... but being on the arse end of the insurance ladder, paying some fantastic figures for insurance over the past few years, and accepting thses prices without complaint. and genunily being in pain (ive been perscribed painkillers for a sprained back), AND given my current financial...

The cup race cars and R19 run completely subframe mounted. as does my mate on his valver and it seems to work very well. picture above shows how it works, and i wanted to know if it would work on a mk2 subframe!

Welcome to CS, glad I finally convinced you to get a clio!!

is it illegal to sell a chassis plaque and v5 without the car??

NOT delta mic's!!!!!!!!!

found this on eBay and thought i would share it with you guys, looks like a minter! ;) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MK1-FORD-ESCORT-RS1600-GENUINE-CAR-BDA-AVO-/300575794076?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item45fbb6a39c

well, tbh, the car is completely worthless, other than sellable mods, and he feels that involving insurance would be less worth while than simply reshelling the car himself because theyll simply take the car away and he wont get any of his stuff back, and just give him with the book value of...

forgot to mention, i was a in the passenger seat of the car, the car got hit at around 20mph on the passenger door and caved it in about 6" into me and sent us spinning across the road apaz they didnt see that there was a give way junction :S

ive just been in an accident and been injured, (not seriously, just back/neck/head ache atm, but ive been told ill hurt tomorrow). Im told im entitled to compensation but my mate doesnt want to get insurance involved. really dont want to fall out with him over issue, but what can i do?? i...

Just stumbled accross this video from french car show, im the clio right infront of the rallye at the begining!! the pugeot driver was all over the shop!! XPNH_AG7qbo&feature=related

Sorry to sound like a kill joy, but there is no existing kit at all to force induction on a clio, let alone using a twin turbo system. so you would have to design and develop the entire system yourself, and then build it, which will probably cost thousands. hats off for being different, but i...

I had this problem with my valver, looked almost like theyd never been replaced!! used a blow torch and heated them up, then a large pipe wrench and a hammer, eventually i won the battle and they started to turn!!

why on earth would you want to go and attempt to custom build a twin turbo 1600cc engine??

1600 twin turbo engine?? what engine is that from?? welcome to CS,

ooooh catty rob!! i think they all just got there first, but got bored waiting for all the mk2/3's get there and left!! ;)

looks like a rather good turnout!! serious lack of mk1 material though!

pics arnt working btw! but by the looks of the above comments, thats for the best! I could tell how this tread was going to go as soon as i saw "what U think OV my phase 1 clio 16v? any THAUGHTS on NEW MODS?" someone thinks their car is cool because everyone in their friendship group is into...

the pink tow strap'd clio on polished turbines was Grant, also saw vicky and (i think) reecey, but wasnt sure. AND i saw your disco machine thingy, sorry but its a bit ott for my tastes! OH and that black one is replica!!

Halfords own oil = rebranded Castrol iirc!! and tbh, it all comes from the same hold in the floor and most likely refined in the same place! it goes off to different companies who add aditives to give different properties based on their research!! lets face it, if it meets the standards set...
