i have lost my license so my mum was driving my car yesterday. she took the piss out of it for the entire journey. My tints are too dark, my suspension is too stiff, my car has no power, its gearbox is crap. She could not understand what a two stage throttle is. She tought her foot was on the...
on boxing day i was caught doing 126mph on the motorway, after talking to the officer when he pulled me over i BEGGED for him to let me off, he said he will put down that i was only doing 96mph. went into court this morning, with my letter saying if i lose my license or get more then 3...
My car goes in for work on monday, and i am being given a 1.2 16v clio. Is it the same with all reno dealers or just the one i went to? there was a V6 in at the time and the guy said even he is tootling along in a 1.2. I was trying to blag a 172! any ideas peeps?
so come on, who owns it? matbrowns must be up there along with 2live and craggys, are there any others? Adiclio was telling me about some guy with a williams on TBs??
since i have owned my clio it has always jumped out of second gear when you come off throttle. CHanged the bottom engine mount and gear linkage and it cured it almost. Last night at the drag racing i missed second gear twice. I can change gear very well and i have never missed and i did last...

i want one
This morning i got a court summons in the post for speeding on the motorway. I was doing in the 120 region, when i got pulled, the guy said he will say i was doing 96mph if i dont take it to court. got summons today and i want to take it to court. I basically have 2 arguments. 1) he cant prove i...
have been going to loads of underground street races recently and so many people have been shocked by the performance of my clio, but my point is, can anyone think of a FWD N/A that can beat a clio of the performance variety? Dont everyone say 106 GTis and VTSs cos i am yet to be convinced that...
went to get some petrol, as i came off by-pass i notice an RS turbo going the opposite way to me, turn into the petrol station and so does he(he must have turned around) as i fill up he is parked up? how weird is that? think he was waiting to race! anyway as i come out after paying he shoots...
just got off the phone to reno, they said they will rework my panel and re-spray it. they said it will be as good as new. they also said to replace the panel would mean undoing the welds and re-welding which would leave the car weak. am i getting a good deal? basically i dont want this to effect...
on my way out of the cinema car park tonight, stopped at a junction in car park to pull out and some dizzy women reversed into me. her rear screen was covered in ice and she obviously could not see me. after going pretty mad at her she claimed responsibility. got all her details. now what i need...
after speaking to a mate who owns a Mini Cooper, and racing a few, it seems that they are following in the footsteps of saxo VTR owners, i.e. bullsh*ting! Its always the ones who didnt quite get the "performance" model who claim to be giant killers. My mate wants to race me:o, even my girlfriend...
last night at the races i raced these cars and beat them. I have stiffened up my suspension to max setting and as a result i could litteraly fly off the line. i was dropping the clutch at around 5k with little wheelspin. i would say i beat the VTS more convincingly as the 106 seemed to pull a...
Did lots of research on this recently so thought i would tell everyone! You need a megane bottom end with starter motor(must be pre 98), a set of re-profiled cams and vernier pulleys, a supersprint manifold, a hill power williams chip and a good mechanic. The best thing to do is to gather all...
anyone who is intersted in coming to watch some street racing can meet me and a few others at the shell garage in altrincham(Manchester). I think it is just off junction 7 of the M60(Altrincham junction). we are meeting there at 7.45pm, making our way down to the stanley green retail park for a...

WOOHOO!!! as im sure many of you are aware i had planned major engine work on my car for next month. anyway all that has changed, been on the phone to Nick Hill and i have just purchased a williams engine! with 45k miles, he is putting some new stuff on it(water pump,clutch etc) and dropping in...
bored at uni so thought i would tell everyone about the thursday night cruise i went to. lots of clios turned up and we got moved on by the police. any way, on the way to mcdonalds i was having some fun with a R5 GTT and what seemed to be a dog sierra(badged up as a GLS) catching them both on...

megane bottom end and starter motor all sorted now
hill power chip also sorted
cams-any preference anyone?
manifold-supersprint,K-tec or BB? should i heat wrap it?
new clutch-BB or K-tec...
just been for a spin on a kawasaki ninja. it was my first time on a bike and JESUSMOTHERf**kINGCHRISTALLMIGHTY it was pretty darn quick. it got to 140mph quicker then my car gets to 50!!! the guy who took me out said he didnt unleash it properly cos it was my first time and that my weight on the...
i have already searched the forum for this and i know it has come up a million times before but.....
what do i need to convert? from what i have read so far it is only a megane bottom end and starter motor. is this right?
i am thinking along the lines of megane bottom end, hot cams(do i need...

my question is how reliable are they? and how...
in this months redline magazine there is a clio 16v that has had a filter and exhaust(de-cat pipe) and running 50bhp nitrous. it was on the rollers at 191bhp!!
he claimed to run a 14.5second quarter mile last year at santa pod with smaller NoS injectors. HOW???????

every thursday night there is a meet in wilmslow that i usually attend. We set up races on a little straight strip that there is. Last night i "raced" a saxo VTR. how embarrasing for him. Then i raced my mates..........Fiat coupe 20V turbo. this strip is just long enough for me to get up to 70...
my clio has 25k miles, serviced very regularly, mongoose straight through exhaust and de-cat pipe, hill power stage 1 chip and piperX induction kit with a very effective heat shield. i had it RR in stockport and was told 144bhp at the fly. they gave me a graph with no labelled axis, they just...
