depends what your ideas are for your project? They drive nice, are reliable, cheap to fix, don't rust, handle well, looks are a personal preference but assume you like the look since your asking

spot on! done this today and boom straight away I could see the mist landing on a coolant hose from where a missing inlet manifold bolt was!

I like that, Standard lights and bright silver OZ F1's would look awesome though!

will check tomorrow how would it be getting out from the inlet manifold though its all sealed?

yep all good! bone dry! that will be next or a TCE conversion lol nope all good. im stumped, got it at my garage tomorrow to strip it to bits and get a better look, its the fact its everywhere as if there has been an oil explosion but no signs of where its coming from when its running!

just fit the injectors on site when you get there doesn't take long. EFI would be my choice even if it is a bit of a trek

I'm stumped! The top and front of engine is coated in oil, underside of the bonnet is coated as if there has been an oil explosion! Alternator side is covered, gearbox side is dry It's using a litre a day. Sump is all good, oil filter all good Breathers all good Not coming from the dipstick or...

at risk of sounding a bit blunt, what do you actually want to achieve? the reason to modify a car is to achieve something, so unless you just have money burning a hole in your pocket with no other hobbies then what made you register on a forum and ask what you should modify on your car?

this is cliosport, don't you know how it works, the new engine is smaller, lighter, more efficient, delivers more power and more torque but its definitely went backwords as the 182 was the last of the rear hot hatches iirc ;)

i doubt it will be too bulky, the road car I think is 1200kg with all its fancy interior and bose etc etc, and the biggest difference was the nicer interior, my bird has a mk4 Clio GT and its 1050kg or something silly! these smaller engines do have their benefits!

quicker rack less weight less power zapped from engine ease of maintenance (I can get my engine out in no time now with no PAS and aircon to worry about. now the cars are getting older they are prone to cracked pipes causing leaks, pumps failing and as said above no fluid is an advantage for a...

Stop hating on TRW!!!!!

im confused do you have a dci 100 or a 182? if your running 182 running gear you will be running 182 shafts/hubs surely? if your running a dci 100 then 182 wide track shouldn't fit?

I had one of mine done by Henk @ Fastchip and one done by RS Tuning, wasn't overly happy with either for different reasons on both, EFI Parts seem to be getting a good review @aldo_87 is having his done next month there. 172/182 injectors, a FMIC, inlet and Decat should see you reach 145hp-150hp

yeah that's the one! was looking at trading my 220 Trophy in against it at the time, sent a big detailed email to find out some more info as it was a 8hr drive and got like a 1 line email back with a quote saying £x amount down and £x a month with no mention of anything I had asked lol lost...

I was thinking this the other day but I must say, I still enjoy looking at a hardware box before I open it just as much as I did back when I got my geforce 2 GTS and Pentium III lol I would be hugely disappointed if my motherboard and GPU turned up in a brown box!

Jesus modern engines look like s**t lol, I gave up trying to count how many plugs/coils/injectors it had to try and work out what engine it is!

Threw this together for her nephew this week as a few of his mates got gaming PC's for Xmas and they don't have any cash to get him one and the poor lad is missing out! Went raiding my spares and found an old Asus am3 board with an old fx-8320e 8 core which is now running happily at 4.2GHz and...

RSTuning used an RSTuner to upload my map as they said it was the easiest way to make sure no other tuner could steal their map (I assume they locked it onto the ECU?) they had to pay henk for every one they done not sure anyone would want to steal it right enough it was a horrible map on...

Went to the scrappies today, Grabbed a set of genuine mats as you can see the 3 of us were staring at them in excitement (well I was), gave them a clean after this photo and they came up like nee Also got a set of genuine mud flaps lol

for me the answer for a mk3 is always Speedlines

not sure they would have sold many base model clios to old ladies if they looked broken from the factory

bit of a common theme in mine... starting in 2010 I was moving into the last of 3 years with my first fast car... bought a ph1... bought a runabout to save miles on the ph1, a DCi100... got bored of fixing old cars and bought my first brand new car, GT DCi106.. got bored of hassle free...

where are you located :unsure:

Back bumper has a crack in it, been trying to find a replacement in white but it isn't easy! This ended up a cheaper way of going about it... 200k, MOT failure

Love a LY R27, the 200 wheels ruin that though imo, white speedlines would be perfect!

off the top of my head no idea ill check it out tomorrow afternoon, wouldn't the steering angle sensor have thrown up some warning if it had been 180 out for so long? I don't remember noticing a massively better turning circle one way than the other lol

It's 2x genuine Renault 182 track rods which my understanding is should be fine for a DCi rack on a 182. That would make sense with being 180 out and possibly been like that since before I had it as I've never touched the rack on it!

I've never had it off just left all the van EPA's in place. All That been off is the squib and steering wheel. Is the limiting collar the plastic spacer that the track rod sits against when tight? Currently I've got, wheel straight, wheels both tracked straight but only one turn left...

Nope 1 full turn left, 1.75 right. I'm assuming it must have always been like that and I've never noticed before the engine conversion?! I didn't think there would be enough movement in the tie rods to correct that?! Will get it up on a ramp for a play and see!
