Basically in the last day the car seems to have lost some of it's power, about 25%, it revs fine and idles fine although I have an idea that the baffles in the exhaust are loose and could have partially blocked the exhaust
the only other thing it's done in the last few days is refused to idle...
Got my 2118's today, been after some since I bought the car 7 months ago
They're far from mint, two need refurbing asap but going to wait until the winter is done with first :)
Anyway, enjoy, some may like the colour, I never thought silver on white would work but it looks ok
as they...
Well been a busy week for the car, got a few things just before christmas for it
I will apologise the car is filthy
Anyway on with the mods
The major one to me was the ph2 rear bumper conversion :) some will love and some will hate, either way you cnt deny it looks good
got an omp...
Been trundling backwards and forwards to work all week in the car after last weeks clean, got it up the eyes as I have to pass a quarry on the way to work
Got chance to clean it today although it was bloody freezing, and popped out to a location for some pics with my new camera
Was trying for the dirty car comp 09 and failed as my OCD kicked in
as some know i was selling the car and bits from it but decided to keep it, think i'l probably keep it for another year or so and try and do some track days in it :)

and thankfully a 2 hour wash later ...
Right guys, im currently rolling on a set of 15" o.z f1's, just the renault versions that came with the car, and I want a change probably in the new year
I want some 2118's but as they're generally meant for rallying etc im guessing they will be quite heavy?
Anybody know the weights of them...
Tony popped down to see me today to get his car protected for the winter
Basic plan was to wash, clay, glaze, seal and wax the car, and seal the wheels for the winter
As the car arrived
one with mine
No pics of the process but some afters in the garage!
tbh tony's car wasnt really...
Alrite guys, basically looking at getting my inlets matched very shortly and was going to upgrade to ptfe gaskets,
First question: Is there a gasket between lower inlet and the head and do ptfe make one?
Second : Do ptfe do a gasket to go between lower and upper inlets?
third: cheapest...
was walking out of work when all i could hear was a loud beeping coming from an angry clio owner, person had white/blonde hair driving and was rather annoyed at a blue/purple kia
was funny to watch
Well Ive been doing some bits and bobs to my clio of late, coilovers, cup spoiler, wheels etc, and its decided to reward me with breaking 2 bottom ball joints and now an upper engine mount
After ordering a brand new mount from renault for £70 Im ready to throw in the towel with it, I love it...
Ive recently fitted my custom 65mm springs on the back of my clio after fitting coilovers, and also got my cup spoiler on
*the rear used to be lower but took spare wheel out to try and heighten it slightly*
Enjoy......
Hi guys, hoping someone can help, ive got a cup spoiler for my clio ph1 172, I've chopped and joined the brake light wires however it wont sit flush on the boot lid
Can anybody please help, ASAP!
Gave you the thumbs up as i bounced past in my silver ph1 172 :D
You should've had a bit play on and enlightened my 300 mile journey, Ive just got through the door
Nice standard looking motor :)
Been waiting quite a while to get some coilovers and the oportunity came about when my mate was selling his Vmaxx coilovers off his track car
They've done around 4 track days since new so not a great deal of wear
Went to a few different locations and it started to get dark :(
Just finished fitting my new whiteline rear ARB on the 172, gotta say it took me a few hours, first of all figuring out what went where and also Ive got a cold so had the 'CBA' approach
Ive got a few pics of it but cnt get them on the comp for some strange reason
First Impressions:
A lot less...
Alrite mate, nice to finally have a bit crack on, sorry i had to go mid conversation :mad: you will have to give me a blast out in the clio sometime as im intrigued to see if its much better than mine
Sorry i never got chance to pop over at roker, bloody cops moved everyone on :(
Saw Karl and Dave Ramsay down there this week, was also a burnt orange, not sure whos that was but looked smart
Ive just changed the wheels back to f1's on mine so if anyone saw me it was the iceburg ph1 with grey f1's
Dave.........why oh why......get them off!!!!!! haha
Met up with T12EED (tony) earlier and as we were chatting a RB 197 pulled in with f1 rear spoiler, and about 5 mins later a red 197 with f1 spoiler went flying past
Was about a week ago on my way to go car shopping, unfortunately couldnt have a play about because of the girl i was with was bricking it at 45 lmao!!!
Nice car btw and exhaust sounded tremendous when it hit the limiter :p
Is it a c/f bonnet or just painted? looked cool anyway
I was in the...
Saw a few guys down in the clio's tonight at teeside, recognised Karl's ph1, a ph2 with recaro's and turini's, a cup and a monaco blue one
I was in the ph1 iceburg silver with dark turini's and painted bullets
