lazer/rader triggers the camera to take pics at exact intervals. The distance you have travelled between the first and seconds pics is used to calculate your speed (this is what the markings on the road are for. They have you by the short and curlys cos theyve effectively cought you on the radar...

doest an induction kit encorporate a bit of tube as a way of getting cold air right up to the filter?

But where is the 206 and mini cooper on the cool board? 206s are awful and minis are...well Minis (only they cost 3 times more than they are worth) Clio is the best all round car. Thats why we all own one :D

Just wondered if anyone from p norf was thinking of going and if you were camping on the saturday night? Ive emailed the organisers and they do have some limited camping space which needs to be pre booked (£10) IF there are gonna be a load of us going and camping we might be able to get a group...

If a 172 had a 6 speed gearbox it would be a motoring classic.

130 on a private airfield ;) there was plenty left but its funny how small a large corner gets when your doing that speed.

dunt really mean owt because the leather pattern itself is stamped onto lower grade leather (which they probably use cos its cheaper and better for car seats) Only very high grade leather has the actual top layer of cow skin on it. 90% of leather you see on seats or sofas or whatever comes from...

might it just be that the fronts get more wear so have a different texture? Leather does go through an ageing process when its new, it dries out a bit and gets worn in. Id be surprised if theyd shoved PVC into a range topping car.

Yup definately got more money than taste. A black clio lowered on 17s could look amazing. I dont understand these people that make their cars look like theyve just barnstormed a demon tweeks shop. Sticking every possible mod on your car does not make it cool. A few choice mods tastefully done...

I would also advise you to get a head unit first. The difference it makes is phenominal. At the moment Ive changed the head unit and got a single 12" sub in the back. With some replacement components in the front it will be sounding sweeeet. Wouldnt go for 6 x 9s tho, If you get good front...

if reno are selling stuff through dealers it will definately keep the steering controls. I cant see dealers selling "official" products that arent compatible with the cars.

lol I came 59th out of 80. Need to get the seats out for the next one I rekon

I know the fronts are 5.5 inch/13CM but has anyone changed the ones where the back seats are? Ive got a single 12" sub in the back and am going to be getting some components for the front, Im thinking of just doing away with the rear speakers cos they just distort with the volume up. If I did...

read my amp wire tips post and save yourself hours of fiddling!

The thing with these superchartged this and nos that saxos or whatever is that yeah sure they are dragway gods but what happens after the 8 hours a month you spend racing? Your left with an unreliable car that does 12MPG. I get 0-60 in 7 secs and 30 odd mpg all the time. Two different kettles of...

Was a top day and Ill definately be at the hot hatch day next month. Not sure If Ill be keeping up with the pace but Ill have a crack. Anyone whos not been I reccomend it even if your running a standard motor like me its still a good laugh. At least I beat a Honda civic and what I think was a...

Super quick Audi (would have raced him on the access road at the end of the strip lol) http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/file.php?image=1056312750__audi.jpg Some clios with the bonnets on the wrong way round [:p] http://erc.qmuc.ac.uk/cliosport/file.php?image=1056312772__bonnetsup.jpg...

Agreed, I was gonna de badge the 172 till I founf out the badges have little bits that stick through the bodywork. I think it just tidies the back end up a bit.

give the guy a break lads f**k me. I sh*t myself when I got my first producer, I though I was gonna end up doing time or summat!

I live in wakey 172gal but I work in and around leeds most of the time :)

Wouldnt mind an oil temp gauge just so you know when its safe to thrash it :)

I find my mk2 to be totally fine. It understeers quite easily but then you do have a massive engine right at the front of the car. Dont know if you guys have tweeked suspension setups that are causing the back to be twitchy but I find it a very stable and predictable car. The back end wont come...

Right today Ive finally got my amp wire in. I dont know if Mk1s are slightly different to Mk2 172s but the methods Ive read about how people have done it would not have worked on my mk2. How Ive done it is through the bonnet release grommet but not from inside the car. If you take off the...

in the showroom! I drive past harrats reno in leeds most days and for about the past 6 months Ive always kept an eye out for a 172 in the showroom. I think with all the fuss over the new Laguna and Megane theyve neglected the clio a bit but I went past yesterday and they had a cup in there...

oh ps my 172 is a mk2 with about 2k on the clock and no mods (will be taking the spare out tho!)

I was gonna ask this question today actually as Im running at york tomorrow for the first time. Im hoping for 15 seconds. If I get into the 14s Ill buy everyone a beer! Neil82cup - why would a time at york be different to crail? They run championships at york so surely their timing gear cant...

The trouble with forums in genral (and I must say that clio sport is not affected by this as much as some forums I go on) People have a tendacy to just sit behind their pc and either just bullsh*t or snipe at people all the time. I personally see forums as an extension of a normal...
