    wanted a m3 but....

    A depreciation free V sounds sensible, for me the M3 e46 would have to be a csl.

    Correcting offset!

    The spacers will only lower the offset hence increasing the amount they stick out. Have material removed from back of the stud face to raise the offset slightly.

    Gear Box Crunch

    sounds like the linkage is slightly out? its also possible to get a bit more shift space firstly by engine mount alignment and secondly fine gear linkage adjustment imo.

    Gear Box Crunch

    there mounts look like they could possibly improve engine stability slightly but its very important to position correctly and tighten each mount in sequence with engine as far forward as possible otherwise knocking on acceleration and crunching gears can be exagerated.

    Looking at a Ph1 172

    get a standard ph1 and leave it alone!, it looks like some chav has pre owned ragged the granny out of it and neglected servicing but decided to colour code the side strips and paint the calipers red? nasty imo but im a pureist.

    Mk1 F4R/172'd Track Car Project [Year 3 - Engine and Chassis Rebuild]

    Re: Mk1 Hybrid Project Checked the fuel pump?, could be suffering at higher rpm from lack of fuel? Very similar symptom to an electrical fault.

    got a f**k off front mount for the dci whats next?!!

    To increase ic capacity is not the only concern when choosing a replacement ideally the boost route must be as short a route as possible with the least amount of 90 degree bends (flow restristrictions) situated in a cold spot. The steady flow of a gas has to be worked out using an mathematical...

    Suspension Woes

    I get this exactly also I think it could possibly be the rear lower control arm to subframe mounting point wear issue. The hole in the subframe elongates over time this combined with the shock assembly not being bolted to the body, I think this wear causes excess movement making castor tracking...

    Subframe mount lower suspension arm hole wear - check your Clio!

    Critical error in my opinion, renault need to address 172 design issues before producing inferior components! The bolt shaft would not wear because is a heat treated tensile bolt where as the subframe is a mild steel mounting piont.
