Whats sort of mileage do you need to change the aux belt?

Does having an oil catch tank have any negative points to it? Was speaking to a friend a while ago who used to be a mechanic (old skool one though) and he said having one like that without the pressure of the air going through the airbox/inlet would break seals on the engine? Plus he also said...

Did you put the RenaultSport sticker on it? And how much did it cost all in? Nick

Looks really nice that car pal! Hopefully having someone claybar my car soon as im a novice, hopefully get rid of the overspray and have smooth paintwork for the first time!

Oh right, he was just saying it was going to be around 370bhp soon! Maybe he was getting a little too excited, he doesn't normally get ott about clios but he was about yours!

Aha! My mate James who works there came out looking for me telling me about your car! Such a lovely looking sleeper there pal. He was saying that you were going to be having it retuned or something to 3**bhp, dont want to say unless its a secret:) Really want to see this in the flesh and maybe...

By any chance were you at WikidWheels in Guildford the other day? Nick

Got them done now anyways, cheers for the offer though! In my personal opinion, the mounts really arent that bad. I have got used to them now and yes theres a bit of vibration, but when driving its so nice because theres no knocks from the engine bay area:) I dont comute in the car so all I do...

Do it! Almost like a Luner grey ph1! Would look the nuts!

Done well!

I thought that if the exhaust pertruds the bumper than its an MOT failure! What I was told by a friend the other day when his failed his MOT anyway....

Haven't really put a lot into my clio really, but when I was building my Mk1 Hybrid, I was running around in a 1.1 metro! Did a 700 mile round trip to Essex, Birmingham, Manchester and back and in my little metro with a mate. We had a bonnet, bumper, two wings, 2 sets of lights and big box full...

That is a long time ago tbf... 3 years depreciation and a 'Credit Crunch' surely would take more than £300 off! All that aside, its a lovely colour and as long as your happy with it then thats all that matters!

Isn't £2700 a lot of money for that kinda car? I saw a dci in the for sale section for £1500 quid, fair it did have a lot of miles but was in mint condition and was very well looking after... Why dont you just get a really cheap runaround and save or a sport?

Really think you should buy a VW... That looks pretty poor tbh...

I had this problem when fitted my polybushes. The best thing to do is find a longer bolt that can go through both sides of the clasp then get the nut on and do it up as hard as you can! Painful job through especially with no room to work with! Nick

Corr I bet they were expensive! BT free earplugs FTW!

Snap! :) I have a Yozza on mine, love it most of the time but there are times that get on my tits!

On that website, which of the two arb's would go for in conjunction with vmaxx coilovers? Only use my car for fast road really but might do a track day. Nick

Think if you did a few other things they would look awesome, definately coilovers being one of them first!

I for one would definately own one, just love the look of them! And tbh I wouldn't care about people saying its a 'bodykitted clio'... I just got a quick quote for just over £2000 a year for a ph2 V6, I only have 3 years no claims so I don't think thats too bad seeing as they are like a mini...

Afraid not pal, the girl in the car with him looked very much like the pictures...

Oh s**t! This guy just parked next to my car in Ladymead as I went into halfords and put a flyer on my car. He also waited for me outside also! I think he might be a little touchy with the above comment when he sees this! Nick

Car looks sweet pal, looks pretty much like mine!

Cheers pal, pm right back at you!

Well after fitting my Vmaxx coilovers, I could not be any happier! The rides just perfect for me, not floaty and definately not solid. 100 times better than standard shocks with apex springs!

I went for the Ktec Grp N mounts as i'm fed up of Renaults s**t mounts and bushes! I have also spoken the JMS Tuning and it seems they cannot fit me in anytime soon. So looking for someone that can do it asap! The moneys there as long as its not a bodgy quick job. Nick

Don't know if this is in the right section or not to be honest, but I have purchased a new set of engine mounts and a dog bone mount for my car as the ones on it are definately worse for wear. I just wondered if there is anyone around the Surrey area that could change them over for me as I do...

That picture looks pretty sick!

They both look good but i'd go with the second ones as they are a bit more subtle and loose that mine on the alloys, looks terrible!
