    secret oil drinker,

    If you rburing more than 1 liter per 1000 miles I'd look at why if its an older engine and its on track then fine. Renault say so long as it burns more than 1lieter per 600 miles its not right but anyhting over 1 liter per 2000 miles I'd look at why.

    5gtt into a clio?

    Tunning to get reliability isn't cheap 120hp stock I think 200hp and you want to realy spend some money and get it relaible. 172 engine is cheaper and more reliable and newer and better for tunnine for reliability.

    172 Antiroll bar and tca bushs..?

    Stock stuff is fine though. There are good reasons why sme stuff isn't harder. Mounts for a first harder lower mount wears the others out quicker. Leaking rear dampers- christurbo has a set of front and rear damapers for sale.

    172 Antiroll bar and tca bushs..?

    Don't bother with aftermarket stuff its all rubish stock are much better. Renault spend loads developing them aftermarket places just get a hard rubber and make it fit.

    Eisback or however you spell it are the best springs alone IMO. But your much better off spending on new springs and dampers as well in the form of coilovers say H and R but there £750 or so. If you want power the intake manaifols working are the best value realy. £180 or so your looking at...

    face lift advice needed

    Renault sport racing but it didn't include light and was pricy. Best place is to buy the panel from scrap yards and have it sprayd up its not worth it buying the stuff from Renault do a 172 conversion front end at best it won't cost much more.

    strange brake wear

    No read disks are cheap its the fact they have pushed in bearing in them which up the price and you won't want to resue old ones as there not that good anyway. Sounds like your sliders on the caliepers need lubriacating up to even out the wear which is a common problem.

    clio 182 engine conversion

    How can it ever be worth it you can pick up 172 realy cheap these days. Most conversions don't have the full 172 bits ie rear disks for the price etc. Freds not finihsed his only just got the engine and got it fitted I think. Also insurance can sometimes be a pain

    Forget engine changes its not cost effective if you want a challenge and something to do them yep but a 2.0 Williams engine is a better idea or a Valver and use a 2.0 bottom end. 1.7 engine someoen was doing on here and gave up I think r5's been done rmany times before but th 2.0 has more...
