    How long does your battery last?

    My 172 still has the renault battery, it lasted 3 weeks when I went on holiday, I even had a jump starter in my car for when I got back just in case.

    Painting the rear drums?

    Satin black looks the best, make sure you sand it down first. It will need a couple of layers to last.

    No one seem want to buy my RSi

ALthough despite the buyer being local the buyer found it on eBay and hit buy it now and paid for it before he even came and looked at it!

    Rear Axle Conversion

    ^ I would have thought most if not all 16v mk2ph1s had abs too. TBH the rear discs conversion is more hassle than its worth, there is not much gained braking force gained and sometimes the discs can be more trouble than they are worth, drums to me are easier to maintain, they are protected from...

    Pics of ur ph1 172's

    It has got one, the number plate is stuck on with thick stickypads which make it stick out a little, the plate is also just the right size for the indentation. I needs a new bumper really, it has lots of scratches and has warped out of shape a little.

    Dual Optic Query

    See my guide here, you will have to change the wiring: http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=240464 You will need 2X HB3s and 2X H7s they will slot right in, you can use your exisitng idicator and W5W sidelights that will slot straight in.

    Spark plugs......

    NGK PFR6E-10 and nothing else, they should have PFR6E on the body, Ive just replaced mine at 72k, the old ones I took out were fine especially considering they have had 7 years of use.

    exhaust fitment...

    It may fit but its the wrong exhaust, iirc the 1.2 8v is the only clio that has just 1 silencer.

    oil change on a 1.2 mk2 ph1

    To check the level, take the dipstick out, wipe it with a rag put it back in and take it back out again, look for the min and max lines. Oil change is very simple, just check with Renault which is the correct filter as there is 3 for this engine (assuming this is a 1.2 8v), yours will probably...
