Apparently this is a storage box. Now I may be ebing stupid, but I thought these ducted heat to the rear or something along those lines. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Clio-172-under-seat-storage-box_W0QQitemZ4599959000QQcategoryZ10410QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I was fitting my sports cat the other night so the car was up in the air. When I had it all bolted up, I blipped the throttle to check for leaks. I got back up to turn the engine off but the door was locked, I nearly died. The RAID must have kicked in even though it was in neutral. We thought...

I am in the process of fitting my Janspeed sports cat to my 172 but the manifold studs that hold the cat to the manifold do not appear to want to come out. I have been turning them for what seems like forever but nothing seems to be happening. Am I doing something wrong or do they just have a...

After fitting my Apex's I need my car tracking but want to make sure it's done properly. Does anyone know anyywhere in Leeds or the surrounding area that does decent laser tracking?

Were you at some function last night at St Benedicts church hall. There was a mk1 Clio in white with black wheels in the car park with the tailgate strip removed. Thought it might be you. Number plate looked similar as well, I read it as MTF on the end but I was on the other side of the road...

I finally got my de-cat/sports cat through today, which looks like it might fit. ;) First question: Is it a de-cat or a sports cat as it looks more like a cat to me, Janspeed I think. Second question: Which is the 1st lambda and which is the 2nd as I need to know which to block. Third and final...

As above. Will a throttle cabled 172/Formula Renault inlet manifold fit my phase 2 Fly By Wire throttled 172?

Where can I get a (real ;) ) de-cat made for my phase 2 172 in Yorkshire. Ideally Leeds would be best. Based on this vid, would you get silenced or not? http://cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=107843 What sort of price would I be paying? Is this...

Apparently it is. How does this fit. It has a flange on one end and nothing on the other. Something has been sawn off. Where does the Lambda go?

Sorry for the poor quality. I wanted to get a clip up as I have just been told my de-cat is on the way. I'll try get another clip of the car being driven then i'll update once I have fitted the de-cat. http://members.lycos.co.uk/ebusiness04/08122005.3gp Realplayer or Quicktime as I cannot...

The bit that juts out from under the engine cover? I am sure I have seen one that has been removed and it just appears to route wires. Can I whip mine off as it looks pants.

My OMP strut brace arrived this morning which I plan to fit this week when I get some stainless nuts and bolts. What size is best for fitment? Will I also need to remove the strut to get access to the nut or will it be ok without? Does the bolt not foul the lower strut cap when fitted? All daft...

After a little too much water found it's way around the engine bay (http://cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=106952), I have managed to get my car running again and keep it out of limp mode but now the ECU light is on. What do I need to do to extinguish it? Will it go out after a I have...

It's been posted before I think, '1 off factory design' my arse. But buy it now for £3200, that is cheap. It must be a Cat D minimum. And what are the wheels, they look like 15'' Dynamiques. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2004-RENAULT-CLIO-172-SPORT_W0QQitemZ4595317830QQcategoryZ9861QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Just washed my car this afternoon and cleaned under the bonnet as well. Not loads of water but enough to rinse all the soap off. Went to drive the car earlier, it started fine as usual but a light in the centre of the dash lit up (a square with a squiggly line running through it) as did the...

Fitted my Apex -40's on Saturday and I'm well impressed. The ride is more Ace Ventura but not unbearable. The handling on the other hand is superb. Do I now need to get the tracking/geometry checked or even fit camber bolts? Or shall I wait until they settle?

She's getting there. V6 spoiler still to fit when I have the locks removed and the bumpers, bonnet and doors resprayed. Not until the shat weather has died down though. Comments welcome kids. Be nice though as it's costing me a fortune LOL.

I called John last Thursday about a set of Apex springs for my 172. He came back with a great price of £95 delivered which beat everywhere else I could find. Payment went through on Friday morning and the springs arrived today. Really impressed. John's a really friendly bloke and was more than...

This is probably a daft question but it's better to know what you are up against. I have just received my Apex springs for my 172, what is involved in fitment? I have removed struts and fitted numerous front springs on Vauxhalls but have never done a Renault. Do I simply disengage the track...

As above. Might be interested in a brake upgrade.

Just had a guy from Dent Solutions work his magic on my 172. It had the usual ripples and dents on the rear 3/4's. It took him well over 2 hours. The result is spot on and only cost £140 inclusive of VAT. If anyone in the Leeds area needs anything doing, give John a ring on 07813 817338.

...would it make a mess?:) If I bought a used cat and removed the ceramic baffles, would this improve performance to the same extent as a decat? I have heard that some jap motors actually benefit from the swirling effect but in theory it doesn't sound right.

I have just received my birthday money 2 months after my birthday LOL. I have decided I want EVOgone's favourite springs, the Apex -40mm's for my phase 2 172. Where is the cheapest place for them? I have checked motorsportworld.co.uk and they come out at about £96. Anyone know anywhere else...

I've searched everywhere. Something just like this: What size is this? It looks superb.

I still haven't managed to work out how to use Photoshop properly. Could I ask someone to do me a very quick favour and lower my car 15mm to emulate the effect of Eibach Pros then 40mm for the Apex/Sportlines.

My nearside headlight is starting to fog up. Before I crack out the 8lb hammer and electric drill Homer style, can it be fixed (without Renaults help)?

Andy, having read your comments about not fitting the feed to the Vipers intake mouth, would this principle apply to the standard air box as well ie. remove the hose that runs from behind the headlight but leave it sat near the air box intake.

I have just bought set of Turinis but 1 wheel could do with a bit of TLC. I also have set of standard wheels whicha have seen better days. Does anyone know the paint code of Turinis as I think the colour would look much better on the standard wheels aswell.

Went out to my car tonight and the door popped as usual. Put the key in, turned it and everything lit up for a second then died. It turns out that the battery is dead so I have had to buy a new one. The problem is, I don't have a radio code. Can anyone please help. I can't stand the lack of...

I've just bought a set of Turinis for my phase 2 172. I have wanted to spcae the wheels since day 1 as I always thought they looked a bit 'in' LOL when looking from behind. What would be the optimum spacing to take the wheels out to 182 spec or would even further out be better? I have checked...
