Think Ph1 are the same darkness? Could be wrong though.

Few reasons. Weight distribution Changing of inlet route, car was supercharged so had inlet piping running where battery would go Tidies engine bay

Completely stripped Stripped with Dash Stripped enough for a roll cage and more comfort/sound reduction

£120 for four injectors isn't correct, someone said about £15 each the other day. At £120 its half the price of brand new injectors new from Renault.

Get in the passenger seat of the Vee then ;)

Anymore people fancy it? Weathers meant to be half decent too :)

I thought exactly the same the other day as my engine bay is mint standard apart from that. I thought of spraying it but that's just going to leave over spray. I may try and paint it finely with a brush.

They're all yellow

No there should be a paper gasket, but I believe Renault don't sell it anymore as I tried to get one last year. You just need a sealing paste of some description.

No, it's a Renault Sport Clio 172

Depends what power you're looking for

Ill be there, nice to see people from further a field making an effort too! That means we will have a meet closer to you at some point :) Still need the PAS Pump Paul?

That's a Twingo/Megane mash up

You quoted my post so I would very much assume it was aimed at me. But paint stripper will not remove chunks of metal from your wheel unless previously repaired. Anyway, sanding the original lacquer away and re priming over the original paint will give a good finish.

Sounds like they'd been refurbed and filled with liquid metal and that fell out from it. It won't melt proper wheels lol!

On clips. Undo screw and make sure all clips in place then whack it on.

Standard with some decent springs is the best all around setup. And all for less than £300

Sounds like track rod ends or lower ball joints

If you set your clock a few hours ahead then open Candy Crush then set clock back you get free lives ;)

Name another petrol hot hatch that will happily do 45MPG, let alone any other sporty petrol.

Just think though that improvement is from upgrading from a worn mount to an uprated mount. Putting a new mount in would give you the same improvement or another good 5-7 years without added vibrations,

I've had everything from Jap to German and always come back to a 172, on my tenth or eleventh now. So easy to maintain, relatively genuine cheap parts compared to the Germans and Japs. Decent MPG, reasonable tax and insurance and very fun and capable cars. I'd also go as far to say they are...

I'd imagine being a diesel it would rattle the car a lot more. My 172 has one on and I want rid of it as at idle it vibrates the car.

Aren't RC5's really dusty though? Looking for something that will be good but not damage my paint, probably go or Ds2500 as I've used them a lot before and always been superb

A lot of ph1 Clios do come with projectors depending on trim levels etc...

I think I'm going to do my pads before I go this time rather than half way there. Was getting some fade hammering the standard pads this weekend to see what they were capable of, the discs really need renewing too. Checked my oil and my 2000 mile old oil is still golden so I'm guessing its...

You'd be better selling that as an engine to drop straight in rather than to rebuild!

It's not even spinning over by sounds of it. You can get a big bar and try and give it a hit as it may be stuck. It's a bit or an arse to change if your bit handy with tools as access isn't the best.

Starter motor, the other threads you saw would of said that too.

I've got an engine that needs a rebuild if that interests you. It just needs some piston rings really so would be perfect for a decent low compression rebuild, Only want £200 for it.
