They pass no worries, we're fine with the projectors ;)

Had a nice blatt with one of those in the 197 the other week. 197 - 1, jap crap - 0 ;)

The White allen key type bolts 100% adjust the hight of each unit. Yes they are self leveling (off the cars rear beam), but you still need to be able to adjust the beam hight of each cluster (if knocked when taken out etc)

The higher k you go the less light output they give. I had 6000k, but eneded up with 50000, much better

I'd say if your getting those figures, you'll see more like 30+ in the 197. My 172 Cup and 182 were giving around the same..... (low 30's) You need to drive harder :rasp:

:(

Re: s**t turning circle Its the width :o Think about it, MK2 Clios are normally shod with skinny 13/14" wheels. The Renaultsport are 16's on the phase 2's, and are wide, so therefore lack of room under each arch. The 182's are the worst with the 205 section tyres. On full lock they...

Today around 3pm ish near the Station. Wearing Black Team Dynamics pro race? Looking good :cool:

Painting over weights = fail You'll have to repaint come new tyre time ;)

Excellent. Mines Albi, but no cup chassis. Painted the calipers Red, and got Black Gloss wheels. The colour is awesome under lights, filled mine up the other night, walking back to it under the forecourt lighting, looked bloody awesome!!!! (mines lowered on H&R coilovers also) Good times! If...

They will change.....

Indeed, my Cup and 182 were reading around 31/32 MPG

I average 28mpg, and thats a good mix of town and B road thrashing. Costs about £10 a week more in petrol in my experience of having both.

Ah fair enough! Yeah not too expensive either iirc. Before that though i'd check the ariel threads, and the clamp under the rooflining has a good earth to the roof etc

I got my side strips lacquered, makes clening much easier, looks better too! :)

^Indeed!!! ;) Most gimps on here have never even seen/driven a 197 ;)

Awesome!!! Remindes me of my old Cup :(, they do look mint after a good session!!!!! Looks like a minter you have there

I had my old standard 182 against a standard 197, and it was who ever pressed the loud pedal first...... splitting hairs speed wise. I'd put good money on my 197 being bang on with Christophers. Its now got 25k on the clock, so nicely run in ;)

Hmmmmm if its plugged in, i'd get a new ariel base. I had similar propblems in my old Cup. New base was the only thing that cured it. The wire is run down the rear pillar, then down the sill trims, so not that hard to do. Makes me wonder what has happened to your car..... new boot etc? Maybe the...

Ive had a 172 cup, 182 cup packed, and now a 197. Sister has just got a RB 182 cup packed. Came home sunday morning in the 197.... the 197 was 'on it 'by they way, the noise, gearbox etc :) Picked up the 182 for some work at Birchdown. By jumping out of the 197 straight into the 182 a few things...

Excellent news, much better than getting the engine repaired imo, some are never right again

Sounds about right!!! I gave them both three good coats, but was probably a bit trigger happy :o So what would you recommend? Last coat of basecoat (dry for how long?) Then a few good coats of clearcoat say 20 mins apart?

Silver is by far the easiest colour to maintain, but never looks super clean/glossy. The reason i fecked off my BG 182 was the colour....... As said, when PC'd it was minter than mint, but you can't just wash and go ;) It turns into a mini detail every time. No matter how careful you are, it...

Another Q about laquer....... just done some mirror caps in Black Gold. One of them has come out bob on, (well fekin awesome for a rattle can job tbh) but on the other morror, the laquer had two milky shadows in it. On closer inspection they look like tiny air bubbles. Had to flat it back and...

On a Megane yes....... not a Clio MK3. Tried that first!!!!

Well you mush have boy hands ;). On a MK3 with AC its nigh on impossible to change without bumper removal

No, but it is a bumper off job for sure :)

Think of it like this. Renault made a Clio 182 (no options), a 182 with Cup packs, and a 182 Cup. Now on CS a 182 is a ff :S, 182 with cup packs is also a ff:S, and then a 182 Cup. ;)

;)

AC is sort of like what you have in a standard car, ie you have the fan speed, heat, and direction dials. With these you have a AC button that you press. So in effect, you have to still do it all manually. Climate is fully digital. You have no dials on the dash, just buttons. Climate can work...
