Bloody hell - I sold my mint one and airbag for £30!!!! Doh!

I have never been to enthused about changing exhausts - for the hassle Id rather pay a couple of quid for someone to do it for me.

I love these threads <gets popcorn!> I love my ickle K20 ;)

I sprayed mine all silver so it looks really neat... and used silver tubing to cover the wires. Looks good IMO - however if I was a tart I would get the rear quarter panels covered in a sheet of carbonfibre. Money not well spent IMO - Id rather spend it on tuning goodies or a Mocal oil cooler/...

How can you be so sure? the gunk is from oil and water mixing. If I was the owner I would get a sniffer done to be sure.

Whats the point in stripping it only to weigh it back down!!!! Either leave it or get carbon panels.

Yep .... loads in here <---------------------------- ;) :)

The dreaded HGF. Is it like mayo - creamy gunk? Have a look in your coolant tank it should have an oily film or yet more gunk in it. Is it overheating? Does it blow steam through the exhaust?

Probably because you had AMD RR it? TMS has a Dyno Dynamics RR. The TMS day had loads of different cars that had different remaps done [by other tuners] and most of the NA's were down on gains. The Tubbies had OK results with Cheeky Chops having the best figures having a full blueflame and...

They have different resistor packs for a start.

Yes - I had the FF aircon removed - condensor - pump - pipes - etc, and had the Clio Cup alternator and bracket installed. Yep - I think resistor pack too! I'll have to order one up when I get a chance.... although my heaters do still work - just not intermittently! It would be a PITA if it...

I wouldnt bother modding the VX220 NA for power increases unless you bolting on a supercharger. I had induction and exhaust and was happy with the noise. I went to the TMS RR meet and when my car was std it made exactly the manufacturer claims. However I had mates who had a STG 2+ remap with...

The interior light is in the roof!???

Hi Gary - hows it all going?

Hmmm - good thought - anyone>? Im thinking it might just be the resistor though?

If you look down the right hand side of my webpage you can select which month to go to - I think I did it in September. You need torx tools. Anyway here is my guide:- http://renaultsport-clio.blogspot.com/2006/09/omp-superquadro-steering-wheel-fitted.html#links

Informative thread - thanks BTW Minx - was it the resistor pack?

You have to go there. They are pennies to buy. However you can buy such things on ebay ;) You may find they wont work anyway.

3.3 ohm resistors - from maplins. I have info and pics here <-------------------------

I have - not posting any because everyone will have one! Loads of pics of it fitted in race cars in this months Circuit Driver too! :cool: Pics in my website <----------------------------------- :) EDIT:- Go on then...

I posted this in someone elses thread but decided to create one for myself. I dont use my 172 much but when I have recently I get in turn the ignition and the fan blows OK and does so as normal. However... ..... If I park up turn off the engine, turn on the ignition on at about 5 mins[or...

Engine regulations over there - thats why Lotus could not impliment the Rover Kseries over there, but could do so with the Yota.

Here is mine - put a allen headed screw in:- [hard to see it due to bright plenum!]

Good idea! You can always go back to VX ownership - especially as Tubbies are now hovering over £12k ;)

350z makes a good choice - quick with luxuries.

Ive done quite alot of stripping to the 172. Make sure you buy some decent seats. I have Kevlar Cobra Imola S' and are nice and comfy.... the monaco's were well uncomfy.

Hi mark who are you from .org? I was going to do the V6 thing but I wasnt impressed IMO... bought a 172 and spent the rest of the cash on upgrades for the track ... its now very formidable with the same steering feel as the VX ... and very quick! The V6 is quite quick but not as fast as you...

The rear wheels are non adustable on a Clio. I can see what you mean about gauging the alignment for the front from the rear wheels though. Like I said getting a fancy alignment/geo done is useless unless the steering wheel is locked straight first - that is the only way to get your wheel...

He doesnt like wearing seatbelts or harnesses ;)

Cheers ;) EDD - what a bloody rip off for what is in reality some resistors! How did yours stop working - was it intermittent like mine or just stop working completely. Did you have a part No for it? :)
