well, tbh, the car is completely worthless, other than sellable mods, and he feels that involving insurance would be less worth while than simply reshelling the car himself because theyll simply take the car away and he wont get any of his stuff back, and just give him with the book value of...

forgot to mention, i was a in the passenger seat of the car, the car got hit at around 20mph on the passenger door and caved it in about 6" into me and sent us spinning across the road apaz they didnt see that there was a give way junction :S

ive just been in an accident and been injured, (not seriously, just back/neck/head ache atm, but ive been told ill hurt tomorrow). Im told im entitled to compensation but my mate doesnt want to get insurance involved. really dont want to fall out with him over issue, but what can i do?? i...

Just stumbled accross this video from french car show, im the clio right infront of the rallye at the begining!! the pugeot driver was all over the shop!! XPNH_AG7qbo&feature=related

Sorry to sound like a kill joy, but there is no existing kit at all to force induction on a clio, let alone using a twin turbo system. so you would have to design and develop the entire system yourself, and then build it, which will probably cost thousands. hats off for being different, but i...

I had this problem with my valver, looked almost like theyd never been replaced!! used a blow torch and heated them up, then a large pipe wrench and a hammer, eventually i won the battle and they started to turn!!

why on earth would you want to go and attempt to custom build a twin turbo 1600cc engine??

1600 twin turbo engine?? what engine is that from?? welcome to CS,

ooooh catty rob!! i think they all just got there first, but got bored waiting for all the mk2/3's get there and left!! ;)

looks like a rather good turnout!! serious lack of mk1 material though!

pics arnt working btw! but by the looks of the above comments, thats for the best! I could tell how this tread was going to go as soon as i saw "what U think OV my phase 1 clio 16v? any THAUGHTS on NEW MODS?" someone thinks their car is cool because everyone in their friendship group is into...

the pink tow strap'd clio on polished turbines was Grant, also saw vicky and (i think) reecey, but wasnt sure. AND i saw your disco machine thingy, sorry but its a bit ott for my tastes! OH and that black one is replica!!

Halfords own oil = rebranded Castrol iirc!! and tbh, it all comes from the same hold in the floor and most likely refined in the same place! it goes off to different companies who add aditives to give different properties based on their research!! lets face it, if it meets the standards set...

Ok just to back track a little bit!! the stock speakers in the clio are by blaupunkt, which is actually a very good audio brand! if you want to make a proper differece, and do the car audio thing properly, start by taking out the skeaers and lining the surrounding metal with dynamat, the...

why not just save for a bit longer and get some raceland coilovers, theyre only about 160 and theyre alright for the money you spend!! then you can go for the exact height you like!!

how hard have you tried push it on, perhaps you had it out of line the first time, pushed to hard and have damaged the shaft a bit, perhaps grind the edge of the shaft down if this was the case!

theyve been replaced by the PX4 havnt they?

haha this forum is so odd, the members that never ever ever go over 30mph, or 4000rpm other threads will be full of people saying their cars see the limiter at least twice a week. give a car the beans wont do it any harm providing its looked after, my F7R is nearly on 100,000 and is well...

5 minutes checking the car before hand would have revealled a broken rear spring!! go to a breakers, all the mk2 (sport/non-sport) rear springs are the same fit, (im unsure if the poundage is much different) itll get you through the MOT and you can sort out getting the correct springs at a...

kinda sucks being all spead up, but i guess it would be boring watching the entire race.

climb into the back and use a tx15 torx bit to take the boot plastic off, then there should be a vertical 2mm bar running from the boot button to the push the bar down as far as you can, and t he catch should pop!! then change the solenoid!

it will allow the exhaust gasses to flow more freely, more out means more in, meaning more bang!! tbh, if it does no gains, it still looks the part!!

sounds exaclty like mine, cooked starter motor is starting stick. itll do a really lazy turn over, or just click, then second or third attempt, itll crank normally and start.

haha fair enough,

well my group of friends are all going, and ill sket around what ever cars i can basically!! ill look out for you, are you running it down the strip?

ill be going up around 7/8 with my lot to north weald if you wanted to convoy up, i wanted to take my clio, but i have no way of getting there :(

This place is over run by the essex crew!! im from southend, spend most of my weekend around the thurrock/Beckton area!! ill also be going north weald sunday!! but i have no way of getting my car there, so look for me in a black fiesta 1.25, with bright blue wheels/seat leon/matt black 172...

ive never had an exhaust complaint in my life!! my close neighbours love me since i do little jobs to their cars that they would otherwise get bent over by a garage for, and i come home at around 3am most weekends, luckily i live on a hill and just roll all the way down and into my drive. if...

unless you can source the parts cheap, then dont bother!! if you can find a clio thats had the rear end mangled for £500, then full steam ahead!! flog the kit, get some money back and you could almost do it for free!! In theory cheapest you could do it for would to be buy and engine, loom...
