    Building a track car

    Id make sure the brakes and tyres have plenty of meat on them, make sure shocks are ok (not leaking) then do 3 or 4 track days - wait until you are used to the car - upgrades are only required once the car is the weak link, I have been doing track days since I passed my test in 1997, but when I...

    best subframe?

    Thats the issue I have in most cars lol, the only car I have owned that I actually felt 100% comfortable driving was my S1 Elise - position was perfect, and in the Clio I can see myself going as far as moving the gearstick back once the seats in position, once Iv dropped the column down to suit...

    best subframe?

    I need some subframes for my Corbeau's running on corbeau side mounts. As im a lanky feck, having the seat low is probably a good option. Im not bothered about it sliding, though if there is the option of it, it would mean other people could drive it, as im 90% leg lol so end up with the...

    White 172.

    Does it have a spare wheel well? If it does then it's definately a 172, if it doesn't then it could have been cut out, which should be easy to tell by the weld marks, if no welding marks, and no spare wheel well then it's a 182 Looks nice by the way :)

    Russ's next Ph1 - 172 Exclusive

    As you say matey, at least the engine doesn't rattle or smoke it's head off, so im pleased - a dephaser seems like a 2 minute job after the engine swap lol. Glad to help, it is an easy one to miss, as I said on Sat, it took me ages to realise that was the issue on mine! Cheers dude...

    Clio 172 phase 1 turbo

    Joking aside, I can imagine once used to it it's pretty good - I wonder how long a standard clutch would last?

    Clio 172 phase 1 turbo

    re : creaking noise at low speeds

    it's worth doing tbh, looking back driving a few when they were new, it is a big difference. Mine is polybushed throughout which tighens it up even more

    How much would you pay?

    Guy on WC has recently sold his Williams which he had fully restored and literally looked as it had rolled out of the factory, he got around the £6000 mark

    re : creaking noise at low speeds

    Bit of a pain without a ramp, from memory about £30 from Renault for both sides

    Ph1 ICV fit a 182?

    As Danny says, the ph2's use the t/b for idle control, so first port of call would be t/b id guess?

    Clio 172 phase 1 turbo

    Was good to see you again mate, and thank you for letting me have a drive of your car. My opinion on it is I think it's a fantastic conversion, to get the bad bit out of the way first, due to the steering rack bush issue it was hard to use the power fully, as it was desperately trying to...
