FFS why do i try and do things properly!! ive already bought the gaskets!! :( wanted to know if i had to use sealant still! can someone confirm that the paper gasket that comes with a waterpump is all thats needed, and no extra sealant is required?!

Update 12/07/2012 So for once the sun has been shining all day!! so i was out that the crack of dawn to get painting!! masked a few things up and jumped straight to it!! inlet engine mount brackets Gerbox bits! lol rocker cover Rebuilt the upper inlet was going to run a pipe to...

russ, not quite sure what you mean by refresh?! engine was out for inspection and to replace anything that i wasnt happy with!! cost my £120 at renault as the decanter seal was leaking which is £70! :( (either that or its the rocker cover which is potentially even worse!!) thanks for the...

No, its not an easy job to replace to rocker gasket! its very hard! it shouldnt necessarily been done with the cambelt, but to change it now, you will need to have all the cam locking tools, so effectively back to a specialist!! :(

Re: The Confused Budget Track Clio! * Inc 197 Cup Cage Content* well it just mean there was a turbo dump noise every time you refuel! lol why put a breather though?! its already just fumes going down that pipe, nothing that needs to be filtered out!!

define "go careful"?

does this gasket have to be replaced each time? i thought the metal ones can be reused!

as much as i agree that he has to try and make a living, but offering effectively 2k for a RB182 as a "favour" is a bit too far! lol

Black and yellow, Black and yellow, Black and yellow, Black and yellow, painted and reassembled my engine today, was so happy with my efforts i thought it could have its own thread! :)

actual WOW! thats........something! who even agreed to make that!! i hope they were laughing as they did it!

sounds like the lambda has given up! and it may be the faulty lambda combined with the very rich cold map that the clios run that cause the problems (hence why its fine after a few mintes). if its not the lambda then you have no choice but to plug it into fault readers!

Strip it out properly! by far the best mod for your money!! aircon, PAS, AC, ABS can all go from the engine bay cup blower, windy windows, tar removal, sound proofing removal, loom reduction, polycarb windows, inner skin removal thatll make it go faster in a straight line, as for the...

im slightly confused if youre meant to use this stuff or not! im replacing the Stat housing gasket, Oil breather gasket (£60 from renault! :O ) the waterpump and the sump gasket i was wondering am i supposed to use sealant as well as the gasket provided, or is that stuff just a bodge some...

I did this when i was 18, thought it looked the muts nuts at the time, taste has kinda changed somewhat since then though. still looks pretty smart though, try not to over do it on the blue lights, subtlety ftw!

polybush dogbone is probs the first engine mod most people do! the full kit makes for quite a harsh ride but not unbearable,

Re: The Confused Budget Track Clio! * Inc 197 Cup Cage Content* :( bad times dude!! im aiming to tax mine on the 1st of august! so everything needs to be sorted by then, other than maybe the cage! progress is coming along though dude! i just blocked that pipe that goes from the tank to the...

it looks like its been done well..... but who would pay for such a modification! just buy an a4 or 5series ffs!! and LOL at collocation only!! ive always been tempted to collocate (though it now sounds very perverse!)

The only expensive job on them is the cambelt/dephaser. Which is a £600 and a round trip to a specialist!

it depends what track youll be running! 1.2 shafts will fit into a JC5 or JB3 gearbox, but theyre hollow so may not be strong enough. mechanically most of the renault engines are interchangable, its just the wiring that may cause issues. however if you with to run the wider track, youll obvs...

welcome to CS!

really like the smoothed ph1 bumbers, great touch!

Im going to see how i get on with it over the winter, if im sick of it/dont use it by the time engines next out, ill bin it! its going to be driven on the road sometimes so safety is a concern. Another (boring) update! ones again, pics arent that interesting because the jobs im doing arnt very...

mine? tbh i dont know, its was lowered a lot! was a horrible ride too but i loved it!! basically sat on bump stops!! eventually it died shortly after it beached on a speedhump HARD! lol, getting recovered in a low car was a NIGHTMARE!

sorry for making a potentially stupid post, but what are those things actually for dan?!

hi welcome to CS! theres loads of poverty spec clios RN is base spec with nothing grande is 1.2 with some kit (pas, leccy windows) alize is 1.4 with good kit then theres a 1.4 sport with the best pov spec kit then theres the special edition ones, the MTV editions and a couple of others then...

wheels could look really cool with some stance work! (ie bit lower, poked out the arches slightly with a little stretch on the tyres!) wing mirrors need to go, and dual optics give the game away that its a nonsport! ;) other than that i think it looks really cool! front splitter actually works...

youll save a lot of money if you do avoid it!! check out this thread for some inspiration!! http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?331979-Non-Sports-In-Here and what is the "Southend we sizzler cruise"? ive not heard of it!

ive thought a lot about it tbh, but this would mean an new cup master cylinder, changing all the brake lines, and adding a bias valve as iirc, the abs pump controls the front/rear distribution? (not 100% on that one though) i was planning on leaving it in for now, and perhaps removing it at a...

Tbh, i just wanted to have a clean and painted engine/bay. also wanted to inspect various aspects of the engine to deciede what needed changing, and reduce the loom as there are a lot of unused plugs now that ive removed PAS,AC etc and tbh, just for fun! im sure a lot of people will say thats...
