    Bringing 172 back to life after 4 years

    I would just get the car started on the old fuel personally then once running do a full tank to dilute the old stuff.

    Bringing 172 back to life after 4 years

    I think its a case of try it as plenty of cars are mothballed for long periods. Personally I would be tempted to drop the oil and refill, getting oil into the head Do a check on the belts Take spark plugs out - use a small amount of thin oil to lubricate the rings (dont forget to refit) Turn...

    197/200 Brembos on 182 with 280mm Discs

    As much as I want a set for my car, I think I will just get some titanium backing plates for the standard caliper made - then run cooling ducts

    Track Car Options Clio 197/200 vs CTR

    This is the key other than good maintenance. Never rush the synchromesh. The throw is reduced but the gearchange still shouldnt be rushed.

    Front wheel sensor

    Brembo fronts do the job and are significantly better value for money than the OEM branded ones. However the rear Renault OEM discs have the abs ring attached which makes them simpler and more cost effective to fit. Thats the most popular set we sell. We also can help with all the parts you...

    Should I buy a Clio sport for a daily ?

    No its not terrible but over a certain mileage a day its worth considering as its not briliant.

    Should I buy a Clio sport for a daily ?

    Mk3 is not great on fuel so depends on your commute distance

    Does this look terminal!

    You laugh but I had some sequential gearboxes from 90's peugeot touring cars that had all had their casings repaired with jb weld. Might get you out of a fix as an emergency get you home measure but you can see that fatigue crack go a fair way round that casing. As you are home already it...

    Brake fluid

    If you are planning on running the CL Brakes RC5 in the next 5 months then Motul RBF660 is about the minimum I would run. Otherwise go for the cheaper ATE Type200 or SL6 and see how you get on.

    Midlife crisis + understanding wife = New Toy

    Great car. I think the mk2 got some fantastic colour options through the years This is most certainly one of them. Glad it has not got the optional stripes. I wasnt a fan.. This!! We work with Chris all the time. Great work ethic and will take care of the car whilst he does any work I have...

    Brake fluid

    Yes. Your average oem pad will overheat before something like ATE typ200. However the CL are designed to run at extremely high temperatures and usually the fluid becomes the weak point which is why you would need something more top end. For more critical race situations we run thermal backing...

    Brake fluid

    Ok. If you are running pagids then you can run some of the cheaper stuff. However when you upgrade to CL brakes - because they are a metallic compound theres a bit more heat transfer to the caliper and fluid than a ceramic based pad so you want the best you can.

    What pads are you using?

    Brake fluid

    Usually with no air 1 bottle will flush through the clio.

    Brake fluid

    If you use the car just on the road I probably would go ATE Typ200. The Motul is great for track use but might be a little over specced for road. RBF600 is slightly cheaper if you want to stick to that brand. We can supply all of the above here and others like Castrol SRF which have a really...

    Unimpressed by 182, what do you love about it?

    This is why I can’t get turbo conversions out of my head. Modernises the car massively :-)

    Gaming headphones

    still the best to get? I think I’ll need something for a bit of gaming the next few weeks. Do you have issues with the sound volume?

    Engine Oil

    I tend to use expensive Ester based synthetic oils on my cars that see sustained high revs and heat. The daily just gets more regular service with a cheaper synthetic

    Engine out for a clutch change I think though with the TT! If not I've heard its a big job.

    Unimpressed by 182, what do you love about it?

    You know what. Its all valid points. The engine is torquey but lacks character due to the VVT. Its a very linear power delivery and I've always found it a little difficult to adjust to. The car will shift along at a great pace though without you getting a thrill from the engine coming on cam...

    Other optons to PMS shifter

    The CAE shifters are for cars with gear cables, but the 172 and 182 have a bar to the gearbox. One is relatively simple. The issue for the businesses wanting to play catchup to PMS is they have to design a system that still seals the interior from the outside without breaching copyright on the...

    Other optons to PMS shifter

    I'm going to fit the PMS with a leather gaitor so its a little more hidden.

    Look in the mirror, slap yourself a few times whilst shouting IDIOT! :D That is spot on. I've an inwardly rolled Scorpion and the straight cut looks so much better. Go look at some local Ford RS or ST's and refocus
