It should definitely have separate sections, that way you can pick and choose what you want to read. No interior isnt the most popular but you know if you need help on something to do with that its unlikely to get buried under a pile of other stuff if its in its own forum. The Cliosport forum...

Jimbo that looks wicked mate. BTW I have actually removed an exhaust manifold with the engine intact. Not fun, but it can be done. Actually I need your help on a couple of things Jimbo, first can the inlet manifold be taken off without having to take the rad off or disturb the alternator...

Bottle heater is about $130-140 in the US, same kind of price in UK when imported - except in £££ instead of $$$! About 200 Euros basically. Strangely enough, Im *not* going to be paying that much for a bit of heated rubber with a 28 degree thermostat and a couple of velcro straps! Plan A was...

I run 215/35/18 and every time you park it sounds like theres a cat in there with its tail caught in the cambelt.

Yeah a KA is definitely one for the ladies...almost every single one is driven by girls.

Im still waiting for a lot of people to get back to me by email about what food they want at the Christmas Meal at the Strawberry Field. If youve not shown interest yet btw, more members are still welcome! I need the details of how many are going, and what they want to eat, ASAP. If it takes too...

Now thats interesting that autobahns have come up. Ive often thought of heading over to Germany for a top speed run (next years Cliosport trip?) but although theres not an outright speed limit, cant you still get booked for inconsiderate or dangerous driving?

Well the fastchip stuff has been there for a few years now, Im sure its pukka gear, in fact I remember telling BB about it last year when I first started to talk to them about branching out into Clios. Its just the fitting thats the hassle but the parts themselves are an OK price. I dont thing...

Ill race anyone who lines up next to me! But Craggy I definitely wanna race you mate. Plus Jon Ive gotta race you for definite. Im aiming for low 14s this time! Thinking maybe I can get direct port injection hooked up before next weekend.

Definitely mod the Willy. Not that 172s arent a bloody quick, fully loaded Clio, but the Willy has that certain je ne sais quois!

Between 100 and 120 is about right. Sorry cant be more accurate than that but Renault wont say and every rolling road tells you something different!

The top one is better. If youre gonna tart up a Laguna then may as well do it properly and smooth the whole lot. The skirts still need smoothing and the front end below the lights is a bit fussy. The ironing board on the back has got to go. Theres a time and a place for a big wing like that, and...

Well all I can say (apart from I am 100% behind Chavy on this) is that *anything* is possible with enough money and time. I cant see any reason why you couldnt get 200-300 bhp out of a 1.6 lump with forced induction. OK it may not last a long time and perhaps the car isnt what youd called a...

Best way is the time honoured method - get him to bring the cheque round ASAP, both sign a receipt for it (plus the cheque is traceable anyway), when it clears he collects the car. No carrier bags full of fivers required.

Yeah Craggy, Im sure youre gonna do 14s this time mate. I can only remember how to get to the place from yours, Im gonna be in the middle of York on Sunday morning so I guess Ill have to work out the route myself!

Well when you hit the limiter on a Willy (or 16v for that matter) its pretty harsh, I certainly wouldnt want to make a habit of it. The rev limit function on these models is about as crude as you can get and its not unusual for it to bounce you down a thousand revs. Modern soft-cut limiters are...

Does sound like a long time to leave it. But then again, these modern Clios dont need so much TLC to keep them running. the old 16v and Willy go through oil almost as quick as petrol!

K&N are tried and tested, dont know your particular model but Im guessing youve got a lot of room in your engine bay so an induction kit shouldnt lose you much power if any at all. To be honest, all cotton filters are the same as each other and all foam filters likewise. Its just down to how...
