if the shocks are badly worn then it'll never handle as it should, i would have them all replaced, standard renault cup ones are very cheap for these cars

all handbrake cables are black, they dont come with the coloured covers anymore

no just cut the kinked section/area out and tape the pipe back together to see if it sorts the issue, if it does then carry out a permanent repair :)

just cut the damaged section out and stick it back together in see what happens, looks to be some sort of vacuum pipe

Subscribed, will be watching this thread as I plan on doing the same with the same management also, don't want to run a pedal box though, good luck

Yeah but you can never be sure one isn't failing, also might give you an idea on which cylinder your having issues with

First thing i would of checked is the plugs

It most likely will be wear and tear, I fitted the yanoo kit with brass bushes (fast road kit 1) and it feels so much better and precise, its tight once fitted but loosens up after a few miles, think it was around £50/60 quid or so

Fit cage, seats, harness's, buy tyres and get on the track

I'd guess someone's had the car out a test drive, and driven it very hard resulting in rod failure I'm afraid

hows best to paint the inlet without painting the lettering?

I used gtechnic on my 172 on all exterior plastics including front grills, they were slightly faded having never been treated before, but now look like brand new and will not need looking at for at least a year which suits me perfectly

The tie bars for a 172 cup are longer than standard 172,s, pretty sure they are 310mm long, I ordered some qh ones a few months back of eBay, I'd need to check my emails,

Buy any of the kits, it's only a slight modification to the pipe work required which is not rocket science

grab selector and put it in fifth gear (twist fully to drivers side and pull towards rear of the car) then slide the clamp over and position it in 5th gear from under the car, then just nip the bolt up, 10 minute job

give them a little heat and they'll come undone no problem at all :)

Remove the home made bolt holding the swing arm, lubricate it and work up and down, it's likely seized, I was having the same issues so just renewed the whole lot, pipes,flexi's, compensator, callipers etc all round, should be trouble free for a few years

Cnut looks like he needs a bath, mink!

Inner ones are a ball ache to change, good luck

What do you mean double thickness, you have a link to the sellers page/item

From what I seen on the net he had issues from day one, issue with parts flocked, items missing, items not received etc week in week out, there's other companies who do flocking, I would never of given him any work as couldn't of been done with the hassle tbh, unless you persue it through small...

Mine are both like the drivers side

Don't fit any, they don't need it and it looks a bit like the vw scene imo, Renault got it right from the factory imo

That's the main issue with modifying car for me, finding somewhere decent to do it, can't wait to move house, will only buy one if it has or can have a big garage So is this the start of the 225 engine getting fitted, and are you going with the meg or Clio box?

It will require to be removed regardless so best just fitting a new pump & aux belt kit, i'd also fit a new thermostat while your there as the coolant will also be getting replaced, these are all serviceable items which a lot of people miss out on

Perfect, thanks

Hi, Anyone know the correct bulb types for a Clio 172 cup, I need sidelights, main and full beam, Thanks

Nice motor and congrats on the mag feature, but just how fast over a standard car is the low blow conversion, what's it on par with now in relation to other cars such as focus rs etc?

What's the price as I need one also? Thanks

Check resistance and fit a suitable resistor, make sure it has a firm connection within the plug, clear code then your sorted, it's likely you don't have a good/tight enough connection between the resistor and the plug
