Okay just purchased a trolley jack/stands kit
On a 1997 1.4 where should I place the axel stands? The Haynes manual does not make this clear at all.
I have found the reinforced points to use a trolley jack but dont know where to place the stands. I am gonna have a go at doing my torsion beam...

Not even lowered it yet!
Okay calm down a bit.
I fitted my wheels today, 195/45/15 with an et38 offset
They are catching (only on full lock) in 2 places
1- The inside wall is catching at the back on the corner of the mud flap. - Should I trim the corner off with a stanley knife or...

My car had 165/60/14 tyres on rsi alloys as standard. The recommended pressure was 2.2 bar all round (About 22-23 PSi)
Ive now bought 15s with 195/4/15 tyres and theres nothing on the tyre to tell you the pressure.
Cheers

Took a front wheel off today to check the front suspension strut and I noticed that Ive got vented front brake disks. Is this normal coz I thought these cars had solid disks?
It is a 1.4 S dunno if that means anything
Cheers for any info as I was going to buy...

I just removed my front wheel and measured the distance between the bolt holes on the front suspension strut. it was 54mm!!
I know this means that some kits (like the damn Apex kit which I was about to buy) wont fit as they are only for cars with a 52mm distance.
I need a kit ASAP coz I am...

Not me obviously as I have no intention of demonstrating the raw power of my 1.4 any time soon.
But I did witness 2 excellent races between other cars at the weekend
1st one was a Honda NSX vs a BMW M3 (New shape) I came off the motorway onto a big fast island where the lights were on red...

Anyone got spax on their car or had it before? Any good?
Need a 55-60mm kit ASAP coz my wheels are being fitted on thursday! (Cant drive round looking like a tractor)
I want to get a cheap backbox, not for performance (Im not that naive) but to just tidy up the back end of the car a bit.
The thing is I dont want something much louder than standard, just a nice sporty note is all.
I have seen these Rage exhausts which look quite cheap and fairly decent...
Is this a difficult/expensive job?
For the last couple of months my drivers window has been goaning every time I close it and its just got worse and worse.
Now if you have both windows open fully and press both buttons simultaneously the passenger side closes about 1-2 secs before the...
Now that winter is coming are there any decent products for coating your allowys with to stop all the salt and crap from the roads damaging them and causing them to corrode?

I need to know of any difference in the engines/ancillaries/mounts etc
It would be for a transplant. Would a 19 16v engine be as suitable as clio 16v one?

Just a couple of questions, did you have to have your subframe strengthened? If so how was this done?
Also was a fuel inertia shut off fitted and how was this installed?
Thanks

Under the rear bumper on the right hand side of the spare wheel there is a black plastic pipe looks like some kind of a duct. Its probably about 2" in diameter and there isnt one on the other side.
What is it? Where does it go? What does it do? Is it essential or can it somehow be removed...

Just wondered how difficult acces to the back seats would be with bucket seats installed in the front? The base frames only slide like the originals so you cant tilt the seat forward right?
Any experiences?
I used to have an Ashley cat back 2 1/4" bore monster with a 4" tailpipe.
Was fun for a while but OMG how loud? There used to be 2 cars parked a couple of houses down from my girlfriend and if I gave it full throttle at night I used to set both car alarms off every time!
Anyway I have...
Hi mate I am thinking of fitting a NOS system to my clio and just wanted to further my understanding of how the system operates.
A switch is fitted to the dash which when flicked arms the system right? Am I right in thinking that there is also a microswitch mounted on the throttle body which...
