V6 I think as its more drivable Id imagine every day plus its newer so less potential expensive bills and makes people look at it just as much as a Ferrari.
Plus I wouldnt fit in a ferari.
I think Id still look at a ferrari though the alore of the badge
Ive looked for the drawings but cannot find them realy.
The dialogues CDs have aloads of info in them though they have the pin out/ ins for the ECU if you interested and would help.
Might be best getting copy Smokey sells them on here.
If you want me to try and find any particular stuff...
Come on Paul asked a question no need to have a go at him he didnt know.
If you want to get awquard this mod does work on some cars and make real power.
People at work have been laughing at me saying Ive put me head in a microwave.
I cannot belive how many of you must have been so close Im suprised I didnt see any of your cars.
5th gear is a seperate shaft on the the box. I think Jay on here has changed a few before so maybe a bit of a common problem. Its probably some sort of bearing
Totally agree with you but you have to decide whats a good engine long life low blowby etc and what sort of conditions your going to drive the engine in ie short drives reved hard from cold plus there no way of making 2 identical engines.
Personally Id not be bothered Ive some excellent...
Have a look back in the media thread loads of pics of 182s
Dont think there is any noticable difference but then agin everyone I thik who has posted pics has the suspension installed.
Were either of you there on saturday when the black Clio with the white bumper kept trying its hand at being an offroader?
Think Saturday qualifiers were better much quieter and they seemed to take them of the track more.
Well done to the Seat driver who swoped ends and ramed into the...
Yep saw it I was over by the corperate entertainment place at the time.
The Cup racers looked excellent.
Who was Matt Allison though I never paid any attention to times and my knowedge of names is abismal.
Wont fit
It would (if it fit) and assuming were on about 182s here lower the car 43mm of which 3mm are down to the different caster angle.
The "Cups" suspension kit would lower it 23mm. (3mm down to the caster changes)
Best kit for any Clio seems to be coilovers realy though as Renaults...
Dont think there a Uk site
K-Tec are the company you need to talk to about the turbo kit.
£5.5k fitted but you need a £500 uprated clutch realy and suspension and brake work wouldnt go amiss
Depends how mcuh you get plus the Pug personally a Pug with an engine with that much millage and much older would put me off.
But go with what you like checp your not getting ripped of but if you enjoy the pug more then go with your heart.
I went ther only decient thing was the Clio racing To be homest IMO.
Saw quite a few 172 and a cup plus the V6 safty car but no stickers.
Shame they stopped the Clio racing early they were just getting into sliding of the track in style.
Where abouts were you?
How about a Seat Ibiza Cupra Y reg ones for sale for ~£8k well equipt and excellent tunning potential.
Citreon Zhara coupe loose money from new like mad you can pick a 3yr old one for under £6k 169hp if I remember and quite well equipt.
Mz Zr look sporty body kit etcWhat about a volvo t...
To bed the engine in hard you would have to drive it quite fast in order to do this quite a few people would crash the new car. So Renault to protect themselves tell you to go easy.
There are benefits to going easy in that if a part breaks at low revs wont do as much damage so if there is a...
The reason that none factory spec cd changers are somtimes different is becuase dealers can buy other models cheaper than than can from Renault so install there own models.
The reason there only locked on the passengers side is becuase its French so the French only need a lock on that door to...
You need to bed the engine in hard getting it upto temp quick and revving the engine to the redline in the foirst 25miles.
Otherwise the piston rings wont shape the cylinder walls so blowby and oil burn will be increased in later life also a few % of power is lost and mpg will be lower...
Any your only going for 220hp? Thought the potential for the engine with that turbo would be nearer 280hp?
Are you going to show us any pics of the project then? or a step by step guide to getting round the problems as Id imagine there will be a few?
Ive got a test drive tomorrow of one beginning to wish the delaership hadnt let me have one now.
Id hate to think how much Id need to get a loan for for one. Plus all the extra costs of one.
What should I expect for road feedback is it as dull as the Dynamic.
(This means feedback not...
You could try touchign them all up but it still wont look amazing. use a model paint brush though for accuracy.
Id recomend getting it sprayed I did on mine and its coped a load better (better paint I guess).
My last set on the front only lasted 15k. Then had them all changed. And this new set are almost gone after 13k. Im going to change them if I keep the car there about 1~2mm above legal but no grip at all kicked the ABS in loads today My civic behind me didnt approve either.
And Ive only got a...
