    Fk Coilover Group Buy

    Yep the adjustable Spax RSX kit will fir the dci. All the Mk2 2 Clios though usuauly share 58mm hubs there only a few 1.2 who don't have it. Best idea would be to get a kit desinged for the 1.4/1.6 dci over a universal none RS kit but the difference won't be huge.

    best place to buy.....

    I wouldn't buy anything for the Clio that Gaz have made. There Mk1 Williams (and I expect 1.8 16V) are so badly designed that they dent the front bonnet seriously. Another forum member on here has Gaz coilovers on his Mk2 Cup and he didn't rate them very highly.

    1.6 16v

    Porbably not its not in the easiest of places to get to. Its worth a try jacking the car up put it on stands and try and get to it but since you need to do this anyway there no reason not to try and do it quicker.

    Ktr/gaz Coilover Fitting Pics

    Its quite promounced so I cannot see any evidence of them doing so. Worst thing IMO is the fact that they still havn't redesigned them after all this time.

    Tracking/Camber??

    Take it to any good gargae and get them to do the tracking on it. What sort of tyre wear issues where there? Any good garage with the tools can do it its not a huge job. Expect to pay about £30~40.

    Ktr/gaz Coilover Fitting Pics

    Yep Luners right I've got Gaz on my Williams and they damage the bonnet. Best idea is to stick some material under the strut about 3.5 inchs in diameter with a 2 inch diameter hole which helps lift them up slightly.

    Where do people who care about their Clios go?

    I use the cheapest local dealership and there not that bad but then again i do a lot of extra maintaince on the car. I've got a fully Renault warently so if the engine does blow up as they stuck the wrong oil in then they can pay for a new one.

    How do I know its got cup packs?

    Theres two Cup packs for the 182. The 182 has both Cup packs but misses zeons and climate and the seats are different I think. One of the cup packs is for the front splitter and bigger rear spolier. The other pack consists of the 3mm lower ride height (makes no difference since tolerances are...

    ***182: Superleggs & Strutbrace***

    Yep your car with shocks and springs is superb a better track car and fast road car and I'd take your car over a springs only 182 however the 182 was good with just springs. However from what I remember I think the 182 with just springs is better than a 172 with just springs. Your car and Omars...

    ChippedUK, +8% remap for £100!

    Anyone who calims to get 8% more power from the stock 172/182 engine or any N/A engine must have a dodgy set of rollers. On a 172/182 on a stock engine you'll get maybe 3hp more. £100 sounds very cheap they won't be custom maps I've even question where they get there maps from.
