Would this fit a clio? http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/1302458.htm

On a side note has anyone used their short shift lever?. what doe's everyone reckon to their 172 Performance rebuild cost seems to good to be true?.

Cool was hoping that was the case.

Thats great Lewvr6 thanks for that, You got any pics of the set up in place and the modified pipes?

Any details on the wire and how it connects?. I'm guessing the laguna belt will do as a replacment too?.

Thanks folks, This is the K4M i was talking about from a Y plate looks very similar to the 172. Sideways would i need the cup alternator or will the lacuna one fit?.

Cheers i'll drop them a PM.

Can anyone tell me if the alternator setup from an F3P laguna 8V engine will fit my ph1 172 if i go down the air conn delete route? And are any of the parts from a 2.0 16v K4M compatible, mainly the rocker cover and breather cover ( the breather has no hole for the inlet plenum so would be...

Excellent write up and excellent roads we have up here, We really are spoiled for choice. I also had a ATR a while back they are are cracking cars.

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 Buy some ear plugs then your gonna need them:D. I spoke to K-Tec and its because i'm running a decat that its louder!. Whats the extra red cable for beside the battery on the earth side?

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 I have the K-Tec Recessed system with decat and non silenced centre and its horrendously loud around 60-80mph, I'll be getting a silenced centre section when funds allow. Cars looking sweet!

Who you insured with?

29psi all round the fronts were well high after getting tyres fitted on friday i didn't recheck them as i asked for 30psi in them, They were actually at 37psi!! nuggets!.

Do it!, its great fun.

It was all over the place on my first few laps but came in and fiddled with the tyre pressure a bit and then it was much better. Its pretty good on track feel solid enough and brakes well, Just need more power as it feels slow compared to everything else on track! but then it was all time...

Got some Trackday action yesterday, Pissed it down all day so Knockhill was nice and slippy!!.

Oh Dear Should have read it back to themselves first really

Seems very cheap to me...

I work with an ex BMW mechanic who did that to a customers car except it was a hammer not a ratchet!:o and no thats not why he's an EX mechanic!

Re: Ben_stevo172 - Supercharged Monaco 172 Whats the difference if its a loan or not you still end up losing the money when you sell on!. And his loan is 0% so no worries. Looks wicked i bet it goes a bit too! Love those wheels can you still get them?

Re: One Year on & £3000 spent Are these battery's bad for going flat over time, I've read you need to keep them topped up regular?

Thought i'd cured my cutting out issue when i re welded my exhaust manifold. But it's started doing it again, It only seems to do it when its cold i drive for maybe 2 miles from the house and get to a hilly section and then the cutting out starts it clears itself when you lift off for a sec but...

Which models had the RS stamped inlets and where's it stamped upper or lower inlet?.

Yes you are if you can't use a C spanner?.:D Seriously all you need to tell the garage is what ride height you require ( ie distance you want the wheels from the body) and set the camber to factory spec or a little more if you want better handling but remember adjusting the camber too much will...

Thought i'd start a project thread for the Clio. My intention is to run it in the Scottish Hillclimb/Sprint championship work permitting and also use it for track days too. So far no major upgrades but here's what's been done so far. New Platinum plugs New Power lead HT leads New DOT5.1 brake...

Had them on my old caddy tdi beast and they are good in the dry but a wee bit nervous in the wet, but then it's really wet up here in the north!.

Not had any knocking so i think its probably been an old fault as its been doing siince i owned the car (1 month) i just assumed it was the gasket. Got the bugger off on friday though and rewelded it and fitted saturday, WOW what a difference has cured the rattle/missfire and it goes like stink...

LOL yeah they are heavy and mine definitly has only one lambda, All removed now and Ktec Decat and Supersport in its place just got to refit my manifold now that the cracked pipe has been welded!.
