Right, bit of a long story so bare with me!
Back in February this year I purchased the Rokkor (Raceland) coilovers for my 1.2 16v Clio. All fitted, jobs a gooden. Anyway, at the time I went to a couple of garages to sort my camber/alignment out and they couldn't set it up because the front left...
Had a little visit from 'Littlegh' on here today, sorted a few bits out on the cars, had a good old chat as usual then popped out and took some photos.
Here's a picture from a few months ago, mine (the cherry red) hasn't changed an awful lot (colour coded sides, lowered the rear some more &...
Right,
Today I noticed that my centre hanger has completely perished, bought it new with my stealth system from K-tec over a year ago. Because of this my back box is now sitting wonky and isn't quite as stealth as it was yesterday. Anyway, Ive got a new one on order from a place near me which...
Hello,
Really wanted to talk to whoever owns this today at Trax, but I never managed to find you. Anyway, you were behind me at FCS this year. I am intreagued but the front mount, wanted to ask whats under the bonnet? :o
Thanks,
Hello there!
I know there's alot of 1.2 decat haters, but still.
I recently managed to get a second Cat on the cheap and after watching the 'Ghetto decat' video and reading the thread I decided to have a 'bash' at it ;) Straight swap, took less than half an hour to do. Anyway, I have a Ktec...
I currently own a 1.2 16v MK2 and earlier this year fitted coilovers. I got all of my alignment and camber set up for me. I didn't want to run any camber as I didn't fancy going through tyres at a rate I couldn't afford. Anyway, I had an issue with the left side front. They just couldn't get it...
Just a quick question,
Me and my mates had to shoot off before the raffle, I popped my number down, whats the deal, will the numbers be posted on here or did the numbers that nobody claimed get re-drawn?
I currently own a Canon 20D which I have various lenses and Canon equipment for, its been a great camera for what Ive been using it for after buying it second hand of my Uncle years ago. I am now looking at upgrading, but sticking with a Canon so I can use my lenses, filters etc. Id love an SLR...
Me and my mate were slightly bored the other night so headed out and took some photos. My Clio is the 1.2 16v Cherry Red with the Cliosport interior. The other, is a 172 conversion with a straight through system and decat.
*Im aware a couple of them are slightly blurry, I forgot my cable...
In preparation for french car show Im wanted to give my interior a good clean. Having been lucky enough to acquire a full half leather sport interior I wanted to know of any decent products to use on my seats? Mainly because It's not 'just' leather so I can't use pure leather cleaners all round...
Finally got round to getting my side strips colour coded. Thanks to JB on here for an excellent job. Think Im going to save up and get the rest done at some point.
Also managed to pick up some Team Heko wind deflectors from a mate for a tenner, so can't complain and I think they look nice. Few...
Was browsing trying to find a panel filter on ebay and came across this:
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/RENAULT-CLIO-MK1-2-3-MK3-AIR-FILTER-INDUCTION-KIT-/160580065089?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2563515741
Whats the point of the fan? Would it actually do anything?!
Looks like...
Just this week my coilovers have started to clunk when going round corners or over bumps at low speeds. Ive since ordered a couple of the washers to maybe help fix this, but whilst I await them I thought id take a look. Below are a couple of pics, left and right and also a crappy phone video of...
Had a search but came up with mixed results so thought id ask.
Ive been have a high pitched metallic screeching noise when pulling away in first and sometimes 2nd gear for a while now coming from the front of my car and I can't put my finger on it, along with alot of vibration when pulling away...
After fitting my 172 interior into my 1.2 yesterday I noticed the airbag connectors are different under the seat. This means that I now have my airbag and service light constantly on. Can anyone suggest a way to turn these off?

So after months or looking and waiting a very good condition CS interior cropped up from a friend of a friend whose stripping his 172 for track at a price I just couldn't say no to. Picked it up at lunch time and took a few hours fitting it all. Looks great and I'm very pleased! Just waiting for...
Okay, so littlegh from here popped down to see me today to check out my K-tec stealth system. After a little drive and lots of talking we took a few pics before he went. Nice meeting you mate.
Just a quick question regarding my K-tec Stealth.
I purchased brand new hangers when I got the system, but the rear hanger just can't cope with the weight of this system. Is there some sort of fix for this, or uprated rear hangers?
Mark
Don't know if anyone has used this shop before, thought id share it anyway as it might be handy. Not sure how the new stuff compares to a dealer, but the used stuff is cheaper.
He does used and new Clio parts. Just purchased a new middle exhaust heatshield as a dead foxy made a mess of mine...
Not sure if its bodywork really but i'll post it in here.
Long story short, I hit a fox the other night in my Clio. Wasn't to bad, only minor damage, bent heat shield and my gearbox cover has snapped off.
If your not sure what I mean, i found this picture on google of one hanging off...
Okay, so I think I'm pretty much done with my little clio now, going to leave it alone for abit now. Need to sort out my spacers (space the rear) and Im going to get some silvertec indicator bulbs to. Have considered a colour code, but being a student I don't have the funds and can find better...
*Bushes
May be buying Anti roll bar bushes from my mate, brand new powerflex ones for my 1.2 that's recently been put on coilovers.
Few of questions:
1) Is it worth doing?
2) Are they a b**ch to fit?
3) Will it affect my tracking, camber etc as Ive just shelled out getting it all set up after...
Hello!
Right after the great success (cough) of the previous thread I have come up with a date for a Cambo meet. Monday 28th of Feb. I'm thinking if we meet at about 7ish at the back end of the Meadows car park like we have in the past, then go from there? Having spoken with 'The Boosh!' Ive...
Okay,
So its been a week since I slammed the Clio, but I want it to handle well and not just have the coilovers for looks. As you can see from the pictures, it is rather low at the front, and its all the way down on the adjusters at the back. Im going to a performance place tomorrow to make...
