one of my mates was looking at buying one. had a test drive and he said it felt slow! wierd thing is he went and bought a vtr :cry:

not true. MPI is great to have and v noticable. and i would of thought a phase3 1.2 would be just as quick if not quicker than a mk1 1.4. the phase 3 1.4S is definately quicker than the mk1. not much between em. my advice would be to get the mintest one you can which has had all necessary...

cheers guys

Tried searching the forums for this but cant find it. basically i was wondering what the standard rev limiter is in the 1.4. i always thought it was 6.5k but i tried a chipped ecu in my car the other day which was supposed to up the limiter and it stayed the same. anyone got any idea?

im in swindon mate so if you can get up here ill give you a hand. did a williams last week so a 16v will be no problem.

another matt from swindon eh, if this continues things will get confusing! lol i am from around swindon. forgot there were some ppl going to the rising sun today. oops :oops: next time for definate!

To be honest, on this engine, it will still not be as effective as just buying a valver bonnet, in terms of cold air, and using an induction kit with that. unless of course you dont like valver bonnets. it is useful in some respect i.e. you dont have to use the IK that is made for this engine...

im sure there is a cliosporter in scotland with the knowledge to help. the more people that learn how to lower torsion bars the less people who have to pay £100 each time they want it done. cant believe they charge that much for such a relatively simple task:o

is the price based per panel or depending on the dent?

too right, people dont seem to read other threads prior to posting their own these days.

any vids of this car yet Mike? im sure you wont have a problem with hosting with all us roaming around with our jaws open ;)

if i found myself a laguna 1.8 spi tb, how much am i looking at for fitting? or is it so easy that its a DIY job? i also assume that a chip is definately required to feel the benefit of any of these mods? headwork and reground cams on a 1.4 seems to put this work in the £400 bracket so...

jay, how easy is it to change the existing TB to the 2l spi laguna one?

not just on valvers jay surely? what about 1.4/1.8/RSi etc. i would of thought it was a common design, maybe not all the same size etc but still a reserve tank.

its reserve. the needle with go below R, at least it did on the old clios, using up your reserve petrol.

lol :o

if you mean Mikes grills, they are just new replacement phase 2 grills in primer.

according to my local power flow the clios are notoriously bad for having crap exhaust mounts especially for the middle section where there are none!! why renault did this i have no idea.

what about 195/45/15? 32/29?

really? thats interesting, something wierd going on with my mates gearbox then...

sorry lads phase 3 wont apply as your box is different altogether (close ratio) as final_maxim has said.

Does anyone know that renault seemed to have used a different gearbox in the mk1 phase 2 1.4 compared to the phase 1 1.4? noticed the other night. my mark 1 does 70mph in 5th at about 3100ish rpm. was in my mates phase 2 1.4 the other night and he was sitting on 70mph and the engine was only...

yeah id like to know where that is too mate.

£27 for a quarter panel? unlikely. probably welding a plate in or something. seems very cheap for both!

i dont rate em personally. i was strapped for cash last time i had to change my tyres so i bought a set of ns1s. in the dry they just good enough and in the wet they are terrible. it is due to this that i tend not to throw my car around corners at 80+ like i have done in the past when running...

you also get a close ratio box.

essex lad what mods have u done to your engine? i know you have stripped it.
