Paint cracking on the springs? Must be some sort of 4x 4 Id think from the tyre tread.

£500 for an SMT device with custom mapping. Remaps after more mods are quite cheap though I think. You wont get huge gains out of a stock engine just a few hp top end and a smooth map. However combine it with some intake manifold work exhaust and induction kit etc and you could see 10~12hp...

No idea what the spark timing is like on that engine you might need the 7 instead of the 6 if the timing bad (although Id not expect so). Gains are so minimal though I just wouldnt recomend remapping. You wont feel any difference. Get a closed induction kit with a cold air intake though.

Any idea how much quicker the car is on the track or acceleration wise?

You can get a custom exhaust made up to go round the wheel well for a 182 look if you want but unless you cut the wheel well out it wont fit.

There new versions relaesed about ever month when that version on ebay went out Renault released a new update. There is therefore load of new versions but try and get hold of one Renault wont give or sell you one and that included employees. However people on the forum with new versions will...

Seats can wear depends on the care taken. Stearing wheel have been known to wear Ive had mine replaced at 30k or so and so have many other people. Gear stick well they get scratch badly whel people wear rings etc. If your owrried about milage go to a dealershipa nd ask them if they cna look...

Depends how good you are i can change the oil in mine without jacking it up but thats cos Im lazy and i know where it is. The drain point is the one by the gearlevel selecter. 8mm sump plug adapter you need to undo it. There only 2 plugs under the engine one for the oil and one for the gearbox...

Nope K-tec coilovers are fixed damping all round. The coilovers k-tec sell are level 1 Fk coilovers level 2 are rebound adjusmtne and about £75 extra. Level 3 dampers are double adjustable ion rebound and bump but there even more.

What do you mean by upgrade? Do you mean bigger disks using the same calipers or 4 pot calipers or just drilled disks and new pads and lines? You can paint calipers just amke sure you prepair them properly and use the correct paint otherwise it will flake off quickly and look cheap. Id...

5% I think. Best give them a call.

Youd need to get it to a dealer the abs fault will be logged in the ECU. It might just be a faulty sensor but Youd have to replace them all to find out unless you go to Renault.

Cambridge way. They do other cars work but there just famous on here for Clio work.

JC5 is the better box to go for its stronger and better built for the revs and torque. Mark has damged the box he has using 7.5k on the track very very quickly. Id recomend a 172/ 182 box as they will fit and take the power Mk2 would be the one to go for with the shorter ratios but top speed...

They dont need to rev the engine any higher to get more power Id think theyd stick with almost the same rev limiter. They arnt likly to be replacing anything bottom end and they dont need more revs so whats the point. 192hp though normally aspirated. Tiop end wont be much different maybe...

No one ever bother adjusting Coilovers for road/show use its to much effort. Anyway a 60mm droip likly to be about 40mm and the fact is the harder springs will mean the front wont bounch around as much so you wont hit anything. I had mine down a 60 claimed on coilovers (which is lower than 60...

Id guess January next year maybe which is about 7 months before it comes out. However you might be able to order one when the new Clio arrives ie The ned of this year.

I dont see then point in changing the filter and not the oil. The oil is more important. You could chnage the filter on a 182 and keep most of the oil if when you remove the oil filter you just let all the oil above the filter drop out and then top it tup with whats probably 1.5 liters.

The ECU replacement mentioned above is a whole new ECU with different maps. It will only work on 172s though. The piggy back ecu fakes the sensors to the ECU to do other things ie increases fueling etc and injection timing depending on the SMT being used. For the 1.4 your options are smt...

Id go with Fks personally. However if you cannot drop that far Blistein dampers and a good spring (eisbeck but linier ones not the progressive ones) would be a superb combination. I had SPAX but I wanted to go lower than the kit would let you.

It wasnt gaz I dont think but it had a sticker in the back window.

P 21/5W. Halfords etc usually have a little chart to check though. Best try and fit them when youve bought them its very easy just undo the screw at the back of the lights (lockated in the boot). Then pull the cover off (its got 3 tabs one at the top and two near the bottom). Brake light is...

I have to say the TT has a thousand things which dont make it a fast good drivers car but I like the look and its a good looking not abismal sports car. Infact a better car Id prefere is a Ruf R turbo but thats what 6 times the price. However I dont drive that fast on the road if i had a...

Nope you can do it yourself.

Does anyone have any experiance using a laptop with a GPS reciever as a sat nav system? Or can anyone offer any advice. I need sat nav with European maps so the Tom Tom 500 is my only option but at £450 I could get a laptop and Gps reciver and a laptops more use than just a Gps system.

£220 is very expensive there are people on the forum who will ft them for £40. Then youd need tracking possibly done which is £30 at a garage. Springs depends on what you want Eisbeck are the best I think and £100 or so.

So what if I am gay? Nothing wrong with the TT its proved to be a very sucessful car. Everytime I see a TT its either got a fit bird driving or a bloke with a fit bird next to them. I know ita overweigth built on a GOld chassic isnt a true sports car 172s will keep with the 225 version etc...

Its all on this page 232hp on the dyno 178 at the wheels on the RR.

The optimum of 37. To close in and the wheel fouls the arches. To far out and its extra load on the hubs.

Personally Id take neither if I had that sort of money it would be audi TT route. Of either of those cars Id take the Evo errr no Id end up following my heart and getting the V6. Id probably regret it all the time thinking of how much better drive the Evo was but the V6 isnt the same sort of...
