Just the basics thinking piper exhaust and de-cat, coilovers, matched inlets, upgrade engine mounts. Really want to cam it but that won't be for a long time if I ever get the money together.
Was thinking about turinis but the standard wheels are growing on me so will refurb them as the old...
Hi everyone I'm stuart I signed up here a year ago looking for a 172 cup but ended up not getting one as the insurance was to high. So a year on I rolled my saxo onto its roof at knockhill (first track day) and started looking for a new car. Got myslef a 182 with both cup packs minus the front...
Got a set of these for my saxo they turned up in a plane box with just a part number on it no maxtorq branding to be seen! Probs just a normal set of cheap discs with the price bumped up.
Why did Renault decide to make the inlet manifold go back over the top of the engine and have the tb at the back away from cool air? Why didn't they use a similar design to the jms intake? Any obvious reasons? Only thing I could think is it would get in the way when doing an oil filter change...
If you do track days cams will be a good mod as you will be sitting at high revs all the time it just means on road you have to rev the t*ts off it to get it flying. I can't speek for experience n a Clio but I had a cammed saxo and on road my friends ctr would pull away from me and lookd like a...
Gettng some good info here guys thanks. Tbh when I look to up the power I'm wanting a drive in drive out style service so either a complete kit that I can fit then take to get mapped or everything done in the one place. I just had to much hassle with my last car doing bits n stages. So can you...
Right cool now I understand a bit better, just trying to get to grips with costs involved for each option. Won't be doing anything mad yet I only just got the car. Cams seem like the cheapest option and I've ran a cammed car before day to day (unmapped) but that was a bit of a pain in the ass...
I'm new to tuning Clios and basicly want to know what the options are. I used to have a saxo vts if people went N/A they got cams then if they wanted to take it further bought ITBs. If they went boosted then turbo either diy or off the shelf kit or if you had lots of pennies supercharger kit...
I'm a member of sax-p (wasn't at FCS at the time) I shall apologise on behalf of everyone that was there a few (insert 4 letter word)s ruined that lap and ended up getting banned fromthe site and alot of abuse from fellow users.
I'm well up for this record attempt though :D
Nice mate! Is mid 14s the sort of times a 172 should be getting? Best I got at crail was 15s dead in my saxo. I'm yet to see what the 182 can do.
I managed to beat a few 1*2s with the saxo so I take it the drivers weren't up to scratch lol
Thanks mate :y:
Just wanted to be sure when it came to the wheels going to get a set asap because I'm not a big fan of the 182 wheels.
My k-tec carbon splitter arrived today so will get that fitted at the weekend and probs do an oil and filter change to.
Exactly mate. The majority will want flames because they have seen high power cars spit flames, high power cars spit flames for a reason not just to look cool. Each to their own though.
Thanks for all the welcomes :D
See what you mean about yozzasport I had a search about and noticed what you were saying. Hope you guys don't mind but can I just ask loads of basic questions in this thread so I don't end up starting loads of new topics all over the forum.
It seems like the...
I think there ghay if you are specificly changing something to make it pop and bang. If you had cams that made it pop, bang and shoot flames because of overlap then that's ok because they are produced due to the engine set up.
Will it not pop and bang with a de-cat and performance exhaust anyway. I'm new to the Clio scene so just trying to gather knowledge. IMO pops,bangs and flames are what you get after spending good money on performance mods.
Can you not get a yozzasport direct from their website?
It's not my drive just borrowed it off my neighbour but my street is quite wide so should be ok, thinking of making a driveway though.
