all 3 wouldnt go at once!! id be incredibly suspicious and take the car back tbh, look over it yourself, its pretty easy to see if the clutch and driveshaft have gone! and 2 weeks to get parts?? since the shaft and box need to come out anyway for a clutch change, the labour shouldnt be too...

As above really, i have a carbon bonnet, but i want to convert to bonnet pins for quick and easily removal. however i dont really want to be drilling/cutting straight into carbon fibre because im scared of splitting it!

tbh, if youre looking to go low, 60mm isnt really enough, best bet is to get the budget coilovers off ebay, theyre even easier to fit that springs and you can have it at any ride height you like! 90 for springs + 90 to fit or 200ish for coilovers and if yourself!

No they won't dude, the only brakes that 13s will fit over is the 1.2 8v brakes!

so i want to "service" my brakes (new pads, discs, lines, fluid) is there any way i can grease up the caliper slider to make it move more freely??

i can do a full set of clio springs in about an hour, and thats with no ramp, regular tools, and im far from a trained mechanic! do it yourself man, its a very simply job, or pay a garage top for £50 to do just the front (and do the backs yourself) or pay no more than 70 for the full job!

atm, im going to run the valver track for this summer, but am very tempted to go down the 172 engine/track this winter/next year to run 172 brakes you need 172 hubs which require 172 shocks and full track with steering rack, wishbones, and arb no????

haha your final point is the one thats swaying me at the moment (shameful as it sounds) good good, as atm, in the dry, i dont have enough braking force to lock the wheels if i wanted too! implying a brake upgrade should be on the cards!! (and completely rebleeding the system!) ive asked you in...

Looks great mate, where are you thinking of doing your track sessions?? my clio should be ready by marchish and id love to tag along for some beginner sessions!!

is it the picture, or is the passenger door rotten and fooook??

yes for the braking torque is equvelant to braking force x radius, so less force will be needed by the brakes to make the same stopping power, meaning less heat/less fade

using the same callipers with this kit http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=201&appid=1 would it make a noticable difference in braking performance?? over using the same products but sticking with 260mm discs? http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=199&appid=1 thanks

you can only have this sticker if you are VERY low my mates got one who only lowered 60mm, i mock him constantly for him for it!

My valver is compeltely stripped at the rear, no door cars, no carpet, no headlining, no sound deadening, i was wondering if i should lower the tyre pressure on the rear since its not really carrying any weight at all! any suggestions

^^ THIS, ive got a 449 blue valver and want to do larey wheels, but orange has been done to death, Light blue/green would look gash yellow would look like a terrible williams rep! not sure what colour to do!

have a stroke on of his mane he turns into a plane and then he turns back again when you TUG ON HIS................................

im not sure how he used the drive through with those windows! ;)

haha i also saw this.......in mcdonalds in lakeside last night!!

Ahh thanks for the pic of my car dude!! :D was a great turnout, nice to see some of the old/new folk :D

ahh thats a bummer dude, these big meets are few and far between,

i too will have a look in the garage, i think i should have one,

lower it a lot more than 60mm, to pull off the rat look, and make it look good, it needs a few nutty mods, stupidly expensive wheel, and rediculous ride height usually work. haha the word euro should be put in the swear filter!!

probs about 10-11 then head to lakeside to check out the cruise scene over there! ahh i love satuday nights

euro is a very hard style to label! its like being "good looking" if you call yourself good looking, you automatically loose and what is "good looking" will differ from person to person. im a big fan of euro styled cars, but i think that blue thing that justin_ posted look dreadful as long...

Hmm, its not really my cuppa, and just a hint, its not euro, its rat! euro is on the floor, very clean, wheels out the arches and a few personal touches, if you call your own car euro, it better be VERY euro or you will be burned for it!

welcome dude, its always good to have mk1 owners onboard!

welcome mate, car looks smart, theres a big cliosport.net meet down southend seafront tonight if youre not up to anything get yourself along and meet some of us!!

CS gold! you need to get that thing lowered jane! get some springs and bring it round, we'll get it down and dirty ;)

no excuse mate, my starter motor is completely fubared and required a bump every time. wont stop me from getting to this meet!! and i expect you to be there too ;) im sure people will lend a bump start if need be! rob, add me to the halfway house meeting point, ill be there without fail!
