Modified suspension. Or drop a 2.0 engine in and when you work out the cost buying a proper 172 works out better value. Suspension makes the biggst difference than any money spent on power.

Hub change is dead easy. £80 for 2 second hand ones. I thought Tom had kept to the stock setup in the end?

Try the clutch specialist places in the telephone book. £250~350 or so your looking at.

The fluid level goes down the more the pads are worn. The system not amazing though but I'd say best cheak your pads and chnage them if required it only takes 40 minutes or so and new halfords pads are £17. Depending how you drive but I'd change the pads (and disk if they have a lip on them)...

Servicing rules/time/whats done etc (172/182) http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=107873

Can you not get the extended warently or is your car outside normal warently period now? I'd check the values but you cna have the 72k done for a reasonable price but a £2k difference is good value so long as you get a good one.

You won't have proper zeons as you need the starters etc from a correctly equipt car. You can do the conversion the parts plug in.

Search for Renault specialist breakers and ask for Matt he'll help you.

Does the temperature dial go irratical when it does it? Try running on Optimax for a bit.

Ha Ha always the best for you to much dedication. I don't like cleaning the car even week (or ever few months) therfore I like pads/disk which are easy on wheels and paint. A Mk2 why would I want a slow car though my Mk1 gets round any track faster than my Mk2 ;-). Mk3's the way forward I...

I'd give the quicksilver the upperhand.

I know you Evogone yep and I know you can and do drive the car hard so don't take this the wrong way. However I'm lazy. How long do 2500's disk and pads last on track etc use? I did a pad change on the Williams as I thought that might have been the cause of my recient braking issues (fixed...

I've not looked at them I can only recomend what I've used unfortunatly. Hopefully at the dinner on Sunday I'll try get some comparision of people with normal vs the bulbs in my car.

Since the rubber inserts in the top mounts can be changed you just need that part to be made in a mold out of a stiffer material. I'm no production cost enginner (or whover does that sort of stuff) but I'm sure it wouldn't be that much.

Have a look here No reason to avoid dealers I'd be tempted to go there every time there are bad and good one sbut least you'vbe a better knowedge that they may know what there on about. GDi or Rentech owners are both members on here and have superb prodct knowedge and i'd personally go there...

It totally depends how you hit angles etc. Yep pulling to one side on acceleration or hard braking a simple check.

if its got its cambelt doen by someone who knows what there doing then I'd buy it seems a good value. Still try and push for £3.75k

Its better than the stock one but there a bit more vibration in the car at idle. Depending how bad it it might be badly adjusted mounted you need to ensure the mounts are ll adjusted as the engine moves over time and abuse.

So long as you get one with a proper lead they will both just plug in and go.

Buy a new top mount then get some poly uretane or other similar hard rubbers and where the normal rubber mold should be but the uretance.

The dci 65 already has a turbo (unintercooled though) and runs 1.1 or so bar boost (with spikes it difficult to know) which if you talk to any knowegable petrol head is massive boost. The turbos good for 1.5bar boost accoring to the manurfacturer (KKK) which is huge to put it in prespective the...

You can get a semi auto 172/182 conversion one which will oprate the clutch without needing a clutch pedal its not a cheap conversion though and its not a true auto as you still have to change gear.

My dream engines not been built but its a diesel.

Not much. You need to drill the mounting holes out a bit more 2 or 4mm from memory. (assuming you've got cup suspension packs if you havn't then 172 coilovers are a direct fit). I think you can pick them up from 2 modified on here for £550.

Its due to the suspension stick the wheel on lock and you've got less surface touching the ground.

Have you ever worn the ball joins or stearing arms joints?

Its part of the 72k service so Renault want about £600 for a service and belt change however they also say you should have the coolent changed and the brake fluid chnaged which is another £100 or so. A Renault specialist could do it for under £500.

Bens just thinks his Mk1 is quick, proper Mk1s are different.

I'm not sure but I think Yozza only had then in the car at the track so they were the ones which went on. Dave has a 182 Cup, the reason his brakes failed was probably down to the fact that there was no brake bleeder at the track day and the fluid was probably cooked anyway. These pads and the...
