    Hidden weight in a clio

    PAS pumps? Lightweight battery? Carpets & sound deadening (guessing already done) All the foam bumper inserts Passenger-side mirror Any glass that hasn't been swapped out for plastic. ....may as well remove the rear brakes entirely, thinking about it :)

    Hidden weight in a clio

    If you do wet trackdays, you'll want the air-con to keep that screen clear of mist, surely?

    Clio Modifying - if you could start over where would you go....

    There aren't many of these Gallic sheds I like, but Cubs one is one of them. The other is Matts LY 197. Pretty much every other is interchangeable and meh

    Yes, Yes, but you've done it properly, and without scrimping pennies.

    Clio Modifying - if you could start over where would you go....

    Take mods money Spend it on track days and fuel. More fun in an afternoon on a track than months of dragging your sump over speedbumps and watching out for speedguns around every corner. But that's just sensible talking, clearly what you should do is piss thousands away on go-faster bits that...

    Air filter too loud?!

    You're different. Most would confuse noise with power. A breath of fresh air

    Air filter too loud?!

    Any kind of open-cone intake is going to sound chavalicious, whilst at the same time robbing you of a few HP. Well done at ditching the exhaust too, you may be the first person on CS looking to make their car sound LESS hideous :)

    Sell Clio with cat or de-cat?

    If you want to be able to maximise the amount of prospective buyer, put the cat back in. I, for one, wouldn't go buying a car that, legally, is already broken. Keep the de-cat pipe as a bargaining chip for when an "enthusiast" comes along and knocks you down by £1500 because of reasons. If you...

    Nurburgring 8:22BTG in my old Honda...

    Heavy braking = You're doing it right. Good god I hate to think how much slap is in the bores of that DC2 though, that must be a pint of oil on the rear bumper in that pic :D

    Loud on-throttle noise at speed

    It's the most common noise to come from that corner, it would start off as only being noticeable at speed then grow to be an ever-present noise. Which will eventually turn into a failed bearing. Which I'm sure is not a good thing to happen on a motorway

    This guy ^ Taught me everything I know about how to use a spanner. Shame I didn't take any bloody notice....and it wasn't on a Clio

    Seems quite an apt turn of phrase, given feedback above

    help with horrendous noise

    COuld be a shagged bottom end for all we know, one mid-def video looking at a rocker cover with the sound of a 1970's diesel in the background doesn't say a lot.

    help with horrendous noise

    lol, nice. No idea what you've done to it, might just be a heat shield or similar.

    New member just getting started with my 182

    As above, if you're looking to use the car as a daily, then removing all suspension travel and exhaust muffling will likely be something you regret after the first 100 miles. OEM exhausts are made of soft cheese, so a good quality aftermarket one would be a good move, by the time you've bought...

    Random limp mode 1.2 - please help!

    fix the leak before you fix the electrics. or you'll just be fixing the same problem every 30 minutes.

    Worth waiting a couple of months longer...

    There is also that ^ yes. Thinking about it, the £100 saving will be chewed up within 3 fill ups as you'll probably do about 50% mpg while you grin and redline the old trolley everywhere. Since you'll need to be feeding it high-octane unleaded* this will soon go through your perceiving savings...

    Cancelling won't be too hard, especially if you're paying monthly. :)
