I used to look after that 200 at my previous work, akra and ktec manifold on it. last time it was in I diagnosed it as a UCH fault and 3rd gear synchro never seen it back again lol
I remember going to see a nimbus 197 cup on black speedlines when they were new in the dealers showroom, I was only 18 at the time and I remember thinking it was the coolest thing I've ever seen! They have aged well!
People fit the mk3 recaros into the mk2, so essentially you are looking to do the reverse, find out what they do and see if there is a solution! I've never tried either unfortunately
I went all 2004 and fitted a smaller plate from fancy plates to my daily smoker 1.2 16v
was going to wash it but i better wait a few days to let the double sided tape stick properly lol
As a above, standard setup is fine, the old 406/MK1 frs/fiat coupe turbo calipers weren't actually that great and are not as light as the 197 style ones. They do however just bolt straight onto your hub which is nice lol
I had this exact issue on a twingo which runs the same setup as a MK2 Clio, AP coilovers, rattle from the rear, I switched the top mounts, bump stops, was over everything with a fine comb, couldn't get to the bottom of it. Swapped the rear dampers for Apex ones and the noise disappeared I was...
no the 4 litre was me being a spaz trying to get a pedal!
yeah autel was much the same just follow the onscreen instructions, pressure bleeder on it, open the bleed nipple as its purging the pump and the air will come thru
Snapon should do the abs bleed sequence as I've done it on an autel with no issues.
When I built my van I set it up from dry, 4 litres of fluid thru it still couldn't get a pedal, another litre with the rstuner bleed sequence and it was good as new.
Given the milage I would sell without the belts. That's probably more likely to be the sort of car people are buying for a cheap toy rather than people looking for a minter/investment etc (no disrespect to your car, I'm sure it's as good as you say) that then leaves it open to people looking for...
Worth noting, I see a lot of people choosing bilstein b14 due to the name these days, I went thru 2 pairs of rear dampers in 12 months/1500 miles with only light road use, bilstein did swap them under warranty, but the fronts also looked like they had come from the titanic after this same period!
Identical shells if you get one without a sunroof, myself and @aldo_87 have done a couple of reshells with ours, much better condition shells on the non RS cars now. As brigsy says, only worth it if it's a long term project so future resale isn't a concern
The availability on genuine brakes from Renault right now is pants, my Mrs had genuine discs and pads for her 2021 Clio on order for 2 months before cancelling - unreal!
Mental IMO, if you had that sort of monthly payment to put out then id do what my Mrs does. buys a brand new Clio DCI every 2 years, she took her first one over 2 years HP with a massive £500+ payment every month, then at 2yrs old traded it, used its value as deposit and took the balance over 2...
