Recently had my wheels balanced and asked the monkey to tighten by hand.
He then used a torque wrench which he said alloys should be 80newtons...i think thats what he called them.....but it was definately 80 something.
After putting 17s on I found the ride was hard and twitchy.
I have now fitted the Eibachs and it has totally transformed the handling and the ride is now more smooth....even when it was standard on 16"!!!
The ride height is not altered that much...20mm or so, so you wont be slamming it!! as...
I have the quiet K-tec and its really not too loud. A lot quieter than their original!!! its top quality and sounds the nuts!!!
Only problem with keeping the original whole is that you will have to drop the rear beam down to get the zorst over it. I told the guy that fitted mine that I...

Steering wheel......they will have to redo the alignment as the wheel is on a non adjustable boss.
I know as mine was the same...tried to blame me for it as it had a slight bit of kerage on one of the wheels. After running out of teddies they gave in...but got there own back by scratching...
the big problem is getting a standard one to be near to 172bhp to start with!!
Mine was 163bhp standard!!! then K-tec zorst + Viper was roaded at 158bhp!!!! but the fueling was well and truely screwed due to the viper. After the Superchip remap it pulled 180bhp....so you could say I was...
the valve on the top has wires going to it so if it was dissconnected it may cause problems....even BenR left his on!!
There is plenty of room....I unbolted it turned it upside down and tiewrapped it out the way.
Better safe than sorry!!
If you mean the pair on the top (see pic) then yes you have to cut out the original.
I have diamond weave Jaguar mesh in my lower grill and are currently trying to work out a way of doing the top pair without causing too much damage...
If you mean the lower grill then it has to come out....quite expensive otherwise to replace it.
Its held in position by 4 or 5 lugs along the top and the same along the bottom....it then pushes from the outside inwards. If you remove the 2 bolts from under the front scuttle panel then it...
Took them 5weeks!!!! to get my gearbox....said they had to bulid one!!!
If you want an uprated clutch nows the time as you would have to take the engine/gearbox out to do that too.....
Should have called their bluff....and added that if it didnt make 200+BHP then they could pay for OUR travel exs and RR runs..;)
You would have thought they would jump at the chance of rubbing our noses in it and prove themselves tuning gods...:p
i was told he was the team manager, really helpful.....curly hair and glasses
Also said that if doing a track day you should add camber, but that would really wear your tyres for everyday use.
My local tracking centre said they setup lowered cars by putting a slight toe in to counteract the...
My dad has a Clio in Spain and he has the pin type.
When I took my car into the dealer to be checked they said id been using the wrong jack and after checking 3 of the cars in the showroom climbed down and said mine was the correct type......FLAT TYPE!!!!
I can feel a letter coming on...
Sadly its not just the cost of buying the bolts....it needs setting up too so thats gonna cost also. Had a quote the other day for camber bolts/fitting and setup plus tracking for £180!!! bloody springs only cost £120.
I was on business next door to Mardi Gras Motorsports today and saw a...
unless you get a Renault monkey that can read..... has Eibach written all over them LOL!!!
Had the Eibachs on for about a week now and the run down to Donny and back was very smooth.... infact I think theyre not as harsh as the OEM ones.
The only down side is the amount they lower...the...
doesnt mention car park dents..... but does say stone chips!!! although I dont think that they are malicious....unless caused by the road fairies...LOL!
