Just got my mk2 V6 spoiler back from the sprayers and fitted it today. I had the very same problem - it catches on the roof edge and clips the aerial..bugger! Looks the daddy though!! Pics to follow...

Had mine on BB Tunings RR as std and it produced 172 bhp and 149 lb ft torque...

But are you sure these are for the road car? If theyre for the CUP car they are referring to the Cup Racer, which has a 6-speed Sadev sequential box.

I had the very same problem on track @ Bedford Autodrome. It turned out that the pads were very low, but with all those cornering forces it could have been fluid levels too. Ive since had the pads changed and all seems ok...

Was anyone elses import 172 not supplied with the eyes in the boot for the net? Ive got the net, but no-where to fix it!

According to renaultsport.ft this is only suitable for the Sadev box and is merely a spacer to adjust the shift lever position inside the cabin.

Try http://www.ms-design.com/http://www.ms-design.com/ http://www.ms-design.com/neue_db/images/renault_clio01_kg.jpg Very nice, and available via K-TEC. But a bit steep at £140. Im gonna make my own, based on a very similar idea...

Saw the winners competing on Monday at Brands - 16 years old!!!

Maybe someone should speak to PGTI and get them to do a feature on Roamers car (Im sure they will) and then, in the article, throw down the gauntlet to LAD and anyone else, with a passing reference to LADs lame excuse for not coming down. Obviously they have little faith in their own product...

Interesting!! Mine sticks in 2nd too, but only after I blew the clutch up at Palmersport!

Mines whined in 2nd from new....I just thought it was a Renault trait!

I think I saw you guys...loitering around the paddock area, in a Cliosport T-shirt, near the SpeedEquipe Clio...

Are you thinking of racing the car? Im not sure youd want the race setup on a road car - itd be way to hard and oversteery (if the Palmersport cars were anything to go by!!!)

Anyone remember this post, about a new inlet manifold? http://forum.cliosport.net/display_topic_threads.asp?ForumID=6&TopicID=42567&PagePosition=17http://forum.cliosport.net/display_topic_threads.asp?ForumID=6&TopicID=42567&PagePosition=17 Did anything ever come of it?

Well, Ive always found the box in my Mk2 172 fine, until the last Palmersport track day. It was getting more and more tricky to get it into gear at high revs and then, bang! I missed a gear and the clutch exploded! Nice!

Just had some Carbon Metallic pads fitted to my Mk2 172 and they are superb - far more bite and considerably better braking performance...

No, £400 labour.....5-6 hours to fit apparantly!

Has anyone got one, or know of one?

Just got a price from Renault - £138 inc VAT but then about £400 to fit :( However, even though mines an import, it is supposed to be covered by the warranty, according to my local garage. Whats the betting theyll pull the car apart only to discover its not covered!! *ggrrrrr*

How much is a new clutch for a 2002 Mk2 172? And what sort of fitting charge would I be looking at?

Got a track day @ Palmersport booked for this Saturday....on the Grand Turismo circuit....cant wait!!

I changed the oil in my Mk172 @ 1500 and 6000 and, in each case, used a Renault oil filter and Elf Silverstone fully synthetic oil (5W40 I think, and the oil the Cup racers use). Yes, its bloody expensive, but I get a decent discount on it, which helps. I figure its the lifeblood of the engine...

Excellent! Thanks!!! Just getting my new (V6 Mk2) spoiler sprayed so relieved to hear itll be easy to fit/swap over! :D

Question - is the spoiler stuck to the tailgate with double-sided tape, or is it just held in place with clips/screws?

See my "172 handling transformed" post for details on a superb handling package for the 172. There is also a post from tonykart re. a Dieppe sourced inlet manifold +8bhp Finally, Roamer is pioneering a throttle body package. All good stuff for 172 owners!

Konis are the daddy!

Weird, because I phoned Eibach UK a couple of months ago and they reckoned they could ship me (next day delivery) a set of Sportline springs for a 2002 Clio (inc 172) for around £130

Any updates on the development Roamer?

And are these brochures freely available from a Renault dealer?

Where can I get this brochure? Do you have an electronic copy and does it apply to UK cars?
