    steering noise (click/clunk)

    most of the time they bang from left to right because the bearings in the strut had died!! first time i fitted lowering springs i fitted the bearing and bush in the wrong ordered and it caused the very aggressive bang! however, if like some people you have a constant clunking / skipping when...

    So who's passed an MOT with no airbags then?

    if you take the seatbelts out aswell, then its fine to remove the back seats! my airbag light illuminates and goes away even though all the airbag paraphernalia has clearly been removed! will this still pass?? also i have fixed bucket seats bolted to the floor, they cannot be moved at all, is...

    Those with stripped clios

    carpets weigh a lot! when you add all the sound deadening in!! and defs bin all the airbags, remove all the seatbelts, fire wall sound protection, roof protection, power steering pump/pipes/rack/column arch liners ducting for the blowers

    Re mapped the 1.2 :)

    i hear ebay electric superchargers are the only upgrade you can get from here! but you might need another remap and some more water!

    Traded a jack for a forklift...

    ive heard a handbrake turn stop can be performed within 1m, from any distance!

    Traded a jack for a forklift...

    i dont see the issue here at all!! and to everyone who says they dont trust hydraulics...... how do you think the brakes in your clio work?? and it takes a lot more force to stop a car from 70mph than it does to lift 1000kgs!

    link between blowing headlamp bulbs, broken lighter and window washer jets broke?

    welcome to CS! might be worth going over all of the fuse box and checking every fuse! and replace any that arnt! lol

    Clio Phase 1 Diesel Project.

    ph1 172 kit ftw!! remember youll need lows and wides to pull it off properly! good luck!!

    Double checking coilovers bolt spacing..

    fyi, this is what is meant by bolt spacing, the distance between the centre of both holes in the hub where it bolts to the shock! (or top of both holes or bottom of boths holes lol) i cant see any scenario where non-sports would have 54mm or sports would have 58mm but im open to being...

    Low idle

    holes in the airbox shouldnt make any difference to where it idles, is it a ph1 or ph2?? its more than likely a sensor that has gone if its idling funny.

    197 with a mates rs250

    i love the 197, but nicer than the 200 imo, but the rear needs some kind of spoiler to finish it on!! both very nice cars though!

    Do i need spacers for these wheels

    post in "cliosport technical" under suspension! suprised a mod hasnt move it aready tbh!! if you get some lenso BSX wheels defs go for the et20 version, and id personally go fora bit wider on the front from those pics, but the rear looks spot on!
  20. Struggler

    Double checking coilovers bolt spacing..

    if theyre for the 172, they wont have 58mm bolt spacing, theyd have 54mm. other than the stiffness of the suspension the only thing that differs between them is bolt spacing so you wont find 58mm sport ones. with such a car you would realy have to take the hub off and measure, it should be...

    probably been answered before - lowering springs on 172

    the eibach sportlines springs are generally believed to give around 35-40mm whilst still retaining the handling set up.

    Do i need spacers for these wheels

    the lenso BSX wheels come in et38 which would defs need spacers, i had them on my ph1 non-sport and theyre far too tucked, the et20 version you may be able to get away with, but you could still benifit from spaces, it really depends what kind of stance you want! streched tyres? also wrong...

    probably been answered before - lowering springs on 172

    it really depends how you lower it, chopping the springs in half......would destroy the handling! lol

    Visually modifying my 1.2 mk2 ph2... pointless?

    well you need to deciede if you want to keep the car for a while!! if you intend to, then by all means start making some changes, nice wheels, coilovers, some OEM+ body parts. remember as long as you dont butcher anything, you can sell the mods on later when you need to drum up finance for...

    buy a clio mk2 and want mod ideas ?

    im guessing at that budget youre going for a non-sport!? bonnet bra's look gash tints look very chavy as do HID and theyre not MOT legal anymore unless you install aftermarket washer jets! 40mm springs you wont notice at all, they dont even look lowered, 60mm isnt as bad as people make out, i...
