    Plus.net Broadband

    Is the plus account the one which is more expensive but has higher download limits? If so then thats the one I'm on download isn't to bad on Limewire etc but it depends on the host I've got over 55k on some downloads (I'm on the 2 meg package).

    182 Spare Wheel and Tyre

    Just get a full size tyre its not worth the hastle getting a space saver for all the effort if you ever need it. It will fit in the boot though. if you feel like its going to be to big then turn the wheel upside down and you don't loose as much space in the boot as yu can use the inside of the...

    lambda sensor

    What sort of car I take it your talking about a 172? If so (well regauardless) all you have to do is disconnect the sensor after the cat and tape the wires up. thats it if the sensors connected then the ECU will throw an error and so you get the light on the dash but you won't loose any power etc.

    Clio 4 speed Gearbox

    The ratios are often a bit shoter and a mid range so your top gear in a 4 speed is just between the 4th and 5th gear in a 5 speed box. A 5 speed box will get better acceletaion and mpg but its only small and you won't usually notice it.

    port and polish, benr????

    No option is cheap, get some decient brakes and coilover thats much better value. I think your looking at £2.5k for 200hp. There no point IMO just head work especially as you need to remap might as well stick cams an manifold work on the bill and then its a waste not getting as decat and...

    172 cup owners - oil dip stick

    There nothing wrong with that try a Williams or Valver. Then again your brake fluid in an annoying space so maybe its swings and roundabouts

    should I fit a damper valve to my 172?

    Come on be nice, we were all at one time unknowing about modifications so give D_0_4_7 a break. Maybe D_0_4_7 meant some other valve? he might have a nne ABS car and be asking about brake bias valves.

    Alram Help!!!! Desperate!

    Open the engine bay and down on the passengers side by the bulkhead there should be the siren at the back is where you stick the key and swicth it off from there. if you don't have the key then you've got two choice either dismantle the alarm box and remove the speaker or I think you can cut it...

    port and polish, benr????

    Gains you'd have to talk to BenR but you'd need manifold work anyway realy to get the best front it as thats the restriction more than the head first off. Head work, manifold work, cams, decat, IK exhaust will get you to 200hp or there abouts. A Mk1 172 owner with regrind gams has just got...

    Brake pad fiiting kits - Are they needed?

    To bed the pads in your need to get some heat into them but don't stop dead on them 60~10mpg a few times is what they need then let them cool down and don't apply the handbrake when you stop unless there cold again. Thats wear is quite even though nothing to worry about bleed the calipers...

    port and polish, benr????

    Your looking at £500 top £600 i think but thats not including taking the head off and replacing it. Get cams, manifold work a decat and an Induction kit with cold air intake along with a remap instead.

    Decent brakes

    Ooops yep your right Yoz that can usually be the biggest thing I've found to help only remembered after I posted. I don't wish to desput your claim Muckytools but I've seen drilled disks block up and crack on track days. You don't need uprated pads realy I track my car on standard disks and...

    should I fit a damper valve to my 172?

    If your taking about a dump valve then since the 172 engine isn't a turbocharged you don't need one and it won't work.

    How to modify cliosport to get more power

    A sports cat manifold work along with a remap and an cold air induction kit are the best sort of mods for HP IMo after that cams are thenext thing. Tunning the engine isn't cheap though 200hp takes a lot of money.

    Buying a clio.... colour...things to watch out for

    The exteme has come in both low and high spec in the past. Just have a look to see what spec it is. Some cars when they were low spec people opted for the option extra to make them similar to dynamics.

    New Clio Sport...

    I've heard about a GT 140~150hp model being made probly a top of the range none RS car). The only turbo engines will be diesel the new RS is a 6 speed with 192~197hp (most likly 197 which will be equal to 192UK HP). The Megan engine will fit (after all its basically a 172 engine) but its not...

    traction control

    So did having no ABS etc in the cup at Oulton. Although maybe nothing could have helped you other than better tyres and a lighter right foot. I'd prefere a car with ABS etc even if you cannot switch it of for track days.

    Clio192 ???

    It might be a list price of £17k but the 182 list price is £15.5k or so with both suspension and spoler packs which most people opt for, so its not a huge increase. The Mini is a different price range to the Clio it might be a similar size but base price is £19k and then i think most peopel add...

    Buying a clio.... colour...things to watch out for

    The + has air con i think but it depends what model year as there tones of variation you can have dynamics with air con etc as you could have it as an option. The + have electric sunroofs though I think usually. I like the black it does looks stunning when polised an washed but it looks dirty...

    172/williams

    The cars are different. The Williams does stand out with its bonet bulge and wiser arches IMO more than the 172/182 does against a normal Clio. Speed wise there not much in it and then you have the problem of finding a standard as new car to face a 172/182 on the track. I love my Williams but I...
