I'm just going from what iv seen people saying on other posts but I think the spring is different to the clio so you might need to swap that over. Il ask a chap to pop in here to confirm for you

Check ebay bud. Loads came up when I searched

I'm sure you can fit an r5 one? Someone may be along to confirm. They are available new

It just depends on if the cars timed correctly and looked after properly. Mines making above factory with just breathing/exhaust mods (172) 145k miles

Good discount with some sellers at the moment. Use FALL20

Anyone have any experience with both? Wondering which one to go for. Also which variant of the pms as there are 2 thicknesses Whiteline ARB is currently £160 with ebay code so slightly cheaper but the pms looks like its better quality. The whiteline always looks s**t second hand too as the...

Whats the issue bud, recently did the belt on mine with just the Haynes manual, just align all the marks and use the pin?

Usually wheel alignment slightly out from my experience

I run 16mm on the front with no spacers on the rear, bit of camber front and back. No issues with handling

I had an issue with my car having far less camber one side compared to the other. Think the car had been ditched by previous owner due to cracked sideskirt. After trying everything the last thing I changed was the hub and it sorted it. So bent hub seemed to be the problem for me

Spotted this at beaulieu, don't think iv ever seen a lutecia over here Had some Japanese stickers in the rear quarter windows and was left hand drive so guessing its one originally supplied for the Japanese market then imported over? Maybe the owners in here

So glad you just told me that otherwise I'd look a right tool turning up on Saturday 😂

s**t 🤣 I thought it was Saturday!

She's all back together now and Taxed/ MOT'd Got a few niggles I need to sort out ready for the weekend as il be attending beaulieu if anyone else is planning to head over there for their Simply French show on Saturday?

Thanks mate 🙂

Yeah looked s**t too 🤣

Probably, I know someone fitted 1*2 seats to a mk1

Pretty close to completing this now, all fluids topped up, got a few leaks where some of the coolant hose clamps iv used aren't quite tight enough. But so far so good for all other fluids. Seems to be turning over ok too so hoping to have it back on the road end of next week with any luck 🙂

I fitted these to my mk1, other than one of the old bushes being a bit of a s**t to come out the brass bushes fitted lovely. Looks like there is some paint on the selector where it inserts into the bush? May be worth cleaning that up with a bit of emery cloth as mentioned

I'm not sure why tho, peugeot 205 gti/ Renault 5's are making more money. Valvers are far rarer than both

Litterally every other colour is nicer, especially black 🥰

What is it with people and liking naples 😂 litterally the worst colour 🤮

What power was it before mapping? Mapping is next on my todo list Nice results 🙂

Totally agree with this, selling my 172 cat payed for new system, 172 manifold and link pipe and I still had cash spare 👌

As is mentioned above, I'd be making sure you can undo the front top mount nuts first. Especially if you don't have an impact gun. Pop to a local garage to have them loosened off if you have any problem with them. Front discs can have a locating screw fitted too which can be a Ballache if you...

I wondered that but fact the engine bay is yellow too 🤷‍♂️

Not Mine but could be a good project for someone https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/353527698577

Was going to suggest these too. I usually pay ~£120-140 for a set minus fitting in 195/50/15. They seem to last ages too

Great to see this as I couldn't find the seals anywhere either. Might be worth turning this into a guide? I had my 172 regassed but it only lasted a couple of months so think il replace all the seals like yourself 👍

Think my mother would finally kick me out if I did this 😂
