In a dilemma here
IV tried adding the clio on to my policy as a multi car deal but to add a clio there wanting an extra £60 mth on top of my £35 I pay just now, no way in hell am I paying nearly 100mth for insurance but they say it's due to me having 11yrs ncd on original policy yet Hastings...
I'm basically new to Renault sport clios I owned a 172 cup a little while ago and now bought a 182 cup for scooting about in
Made me wonder who still actually owns a clio or uses one as there daily driver
From the site Or have you moved on,
I don't want to be asking questions about engines...
I'm looking for a sweet sounding system for a 182
Nice grunty burbly type with a wee pop or 2 here and there not one that screams everywhere
Is a sports cat any good or decat ? Pros cons?
I was thinking of getting a cat back power flow but what are folks opinions ?
Anyone familiar with this clio ?
Just bought it and it looks like a 182 but comes up as a 172 with insurance
Yet logbook says Renault Renault sport clio 16v
So iv not a clue actually what it is
My old clio 172 cup came up on logbook as a Renault Renault sport 172 cup 16v so that was more obvious...
just wondering how fast roughly would you reakon a supercharged one would be 0-60 i know every car may vary but a rough guess or anyone thats experienced one would be great, i fancy a little sleeper project seeing as these new amg mercs m135 bmw civic type r n new focus rs are on the way and...
i had a shot of my pals one of these and they handle great but i never thought it was good in a straight line and think if i had been turboed it would have been superb
standard it feels slower than 6.9 to 60
my old clio cup 172 would have left it and a pals nurburgring corsa vxr thrashed it...
correct tyre pressures for 195/45 16 and why does the clio cup 172 come up as having 15inch alloys when i search for correct tyre pressures when cups have 16inch turinis
i did a quote and cheapest i got was £250 fully comp with 8yrs no claims 2 days ago, i did another quote last night fully comp with 9 yrs no claims and cheapest i can get now is £380 so i cant understand why in 2 days with same details and an extra years no claims its jumped up
iv shopped...
whats peoples reasons for owning there clio over other makes of cars just wondered as theres obv a few enthusiasts out there that like them what type of clio do you have and why?
as above
want to lower car but whats lowest you can go without encountering problems or ruining handling drivability etc
cars a 172 cup on 16inch turinis
may sound immature lol but my pals focus rs and corsa vxr both pop now and again mostly in 2nd gear when slowing down, and sound great, is it because they are turbo,d or can i do anything to get my cup 172 to pop a little bit aswell and what would i need to do?
iv seen a ktr induction kit i like on the ktec website for £160, is this kit any good?
iv got a decat pipe ordered
I seen fast road cams on prima racing site for £295 any ideas of how good?
what is matched inlets and is that worth doing ?
well its called a 172 but unfortunatly fell short my first run was 156.9 bhp max power at 7165rpm and 109.9mph
The cars cat was stinking and guy said it was clear the car hadnt been opened up fully for a long time
the next run was 161.8 bhp at 109.6mph and 7175rpm
i was disheartned however...
Got a tyre fitted earlier today just a partworn however the car now veers to the right and need to force it left to keep it straight, also vibration through steering wheel at 70, im hoping it just needs the wheel alignment looked at as its very skittish now and all over the place
anyone...
Iv booked my car in for a dyno run on monday to check it's bhp
The car has an induction kit and cobra sport cat back exhaust
Im not looking to go nuts with It but how quicker would the car be with uprated cams and a remap with the exhaust and induction kit roughly? 0-60 and bhp?
My car speedo drops sometimes to 0 then unto the speed I was at
Or flickers which causes the car to have a slight power surge and loose power slightly
Could this be a speedo sensor?
Looking for thoughts on good tyres that compliment the Clio 172 cup, iv seen uni royals that seem to have good reviews but what in owners opinions are good performance tyres that grip well and last?
My Clio is sitting very high as standard and have seen some Ktech coil overs I like
What is the best height as I'm looking to lower the car 45-60mm
Cheers guys
Hi folks
I'm from near Glasgow and just bought myself a Clio cup 172 which I am looking for some advice on some points thanks
Im wanting to lower the car on coil overs is 45-60mm ok or what is recommended? The car pulls to the right and feels very skittish on the road driving straight...
