Not saying don't put 18's on, was considering it myself, but you need 30 profile tyres 215 width to keep the rough same rolling circumference. the ride may be harder depending on the stiffness of the sidewall of the tires you use. handling will not be made worse. it will change also according to...

is there an echo in here? lol

cheapest bhp per pound has always got to be nitrous, but use at your risk! i got about 65 more horses out of mine, but it wasn't cheap!

take out anything non essential. carpets, wood? door trims, electric windows, headlining etc. soundproofing is either thick wadding stuff under the carpets or black tar type stuff stuck to panels. PS when i gutted my 205 for a stockcar it weighed 400kgs with engine (no windows and totally...

nah make it hardcore, take out carpets, all soundproofing, trim etc. looking good though

tbh, strip it. it's free and it will make it go faster

I may be wrong, but isn't there a volvo turbo conversion that'll go in a mk1 clio? Daz

Fin, any joy with replacement exhaust hangers? Daz

do you know which tracks need a roll cage for slicks? thanks Daz

my last MOT, my car should have failed....and that was with a sportscat on! to be fair, it was runnng in and not had the map done. lol I don't think mine would ever pass with a decat, but then it only takes 20 mins to swap over

215/40r16 also fit and are cheaper than standard too. T1R's £53 a corner

Standard renault pads or mintex. copper grease them well should stop squeeling

yuck. you get what you pay for. EBC brakes are rubbish. i had green stuff on my car and put standard back on cos it was dangerous - just wouldn't stop. Mintex pads are good for fast road without being too expensive. All brake pads give off dust, they have to it's the way they work. sorry you...

Is it important where the aero turbine is in the system to get the benefit from it? does the benefit increase with more aero turbines ? Daz

personally i've never tried the Nero's but they have got to be better than GSD's Toyo all the way for me.

Fin, how loud do you think it would be with 2x 2525 and 1x 2525xl on the 172 system all in 2.5 and no cat? will the 3 turbines be a waste? i need the most performance that i can out of the exhaust (track car so under 100db's) i'll try and arrange with you to bring my 172 down so you can...

Fin, let us know what solution you come up with on the OEM hangers, cos both mine are shot and if you come up with something, i won't replace mine yet, i'll get it done when i bring it to you. Also the resonation at 3-4K happens on mine but has been reduced when i moved the middle box back...

maybe not a hot fault, could be a cold fault - starter solenoid sticking maybe TBH if it starts doing it a lot then get it into a garage to diagnose, if not then put it down to owning french technology.....

i've pm'd him

Been looking into the construction of a rack and pinion power rack and it seems quite simple to just remove all the pipework from rack and column, remove pump, fit new belt and blank the rack holes (breathable blanks and also oil still in rack to keep seals wet and intact) should behave nearly...

i know, he's just had a dci rack put on. i want to remove the power assistance fom my PAS rack, not change it. Daz

Now i use my Clio for track events, i was thinking of converting it to non PAS. If i remove the pump and pipework, would i be left with a quickrack? (a pas rack turns quicker than a non pas rack) Thoughts please people.................. Daz

pedal will be spongy if air in system. pedal will go down alot if something is wrong eg leak, hoses expanding etc. pedal travel can change, on the track day i last did, the pedal was on the floor cos i'd overheated the brakes. pedal should be firm and up the top with engine off

Talking about 205's and pas, there used to be mod of removing the pipes etc of a pas rack to make it non-pas, not as ideal as a non-pas rack, but nearly. can it be done to a clio rack do you think? daz

tdc sensor tells the ecu the engine speed....no tdc engine won't run immobiliser light is off when running or ign on. if the ign isn't 'seeing' the key (electronic immobiliser signal from key fob) then engine won't start. did it turn over but not fire or did you turn the key and nothing...

if it's non abs then it's straight forward as you say, normal spanner is fine, just be careful (WD40 first) you don't shear the nipples off. if it abs which i suspect, it's a bit different i believe to bleed, but i've never done one.

agree, could also be idle valve, not opening properly, maybe

more likely is the immobiliser. check the red flashing led on dash board. should go out when ignition is on

Whats the rack from mark?
