You should be able to get a quote for about the same as what your paying now. Keep shopping round If you want it of the road stick it somewhere and declair it as such on a SOFRN form and get your road fund licence money back. Id keep shopping round though you will get someone for the same...

Tell them. If they suspect that your cars modified in that way nowadays then then will have your ECU sent of in the event of a claim. Not worth saving a few quid for the probles if you crash and they find you with it. Then you would be looking at an insurer not paying out for yuor car (there...

Excellent value that. Where did you get it from private sale? was it an import?

Might outlast the car and may die the next day. Most likely if treated with some care will last longer than the car. Age is more important IMO than milage in cars. 100k on my dci would likly to be as bad as 10k on an old Clio. Wear depends on loads of conditions. If the cars done a long run...

Keep ringing Renault insurance there will be asomeone there who will alloy you to lower the car and put it down as a visual mod not a performance mod which arent allowed under the free insuracne deal. Its work a try just ring them three time I recon they will let you say your mates have been...

Some more low down torque but only a few hp top end. 1000 extra revs though although a question remains how safe that is (although your looking at 40k of normal use before any even slight problems) Warently for connected parts in void but there is two ways round this 1 - Take it of its not a...

Arrr why does this forum keep saying Im spaming stupid thing Anyway Ive got some deatils of specs etc at work will get them for you tomorrow. There was at least1 company selling the kits but thye have finished now I belive Also depending on the Hp/ budget you mate had pdepends on the work...

No way of touching it up yourself? Would be much cheaper and with enough enough probaly look as good as a bodyshop. I made a huge post a while back on how to do it even to quite deep srached (Ive had lots to scratch to practice on):(

I recon the spoiler will lower the reception so they dont want to risk people complaining about ther sat nav not working and then having to try and think up a fix for it. Best to tell people, they canoot have the combination

Depends what you want to drop in there. But any of the tunning companies should be able to do it. A GTT should costs in all about £1500 but then if you want any work then the bill will go up. You could drop any Clio engine in there without to many problems ie 1.4 1.8 or Williams one. I...

Id say thake the mods of the car ie tyres and stereo and sell them seperate for more. With or without the mods it will be worth about the same unless someone is willing to pay extar fro the wheels etc. Private sale Id say put it up for £6.3 and you sell for £6.2k to £5.2k depending on...

Id say material failure ie manurfacturing fault Ill see what people at work say though. Its rusting at the bottom so possible the covering (the black stuff) has become ripped at some point by stones etc or by being streched to far if they werent put on correctly. This caused the spring to...

Depends what you think handling is. My view is its the potential of the car ie what it can do. Its nothign to do with how the car feels approaching the limit. Best way to descibe it is this my old escort was a unless car going round bends the car leaned over and the chassis bent like mad but I...

If you want a new cars Id say wait a few weeks and get a 182. If you want to save a couple of grand Id wait until the 182 comes out then when 172 values fall buy a 172 then. Personally Id go for a couple of grand saving with a 172

Thanks for the advice. Ive done the second already before getting told of for saying "blooming" as thats a swear work according to my dad. Felt like mentioning it to him later when he lost it trying to fit some wardrobes.

Only just realised this is about the 16V engine. For some reason I though it was about the 172 one. Think I need to get some sleep.

Ian why dont you have a ring round for 172 insurance you wanted to make your 1.2 look like one so why not get one. The extra £ maynot be that much and if you like one that much why take away what you want for the matter of a few quid. Insurance is going to be bad anyway so the extra for a 172...

At what sort of level of power would you recomend new injectors? I would think 190 is about the safest you should push them with standard pressure especially if you drive it hard

I think he meant to be relating to the R Sport remap (well replacment ECU realy but same thing). Quite a few people forget about superchips and the like when going for a remap and think about a unichip ecu or an Rsport one only.

You can chip a 172 in two ways 1 - Get a replacment R-Sport ECU. Not sure who does it but there a recient thread on it 2 - Go to superchips etc who for £400 I think will remap your car its the original ECU so exterier wise you cannot tell its been tampered. Gary Brown has had this done to...

Ok I didnt know hoe much Roamers mods cost he has never as far as I know admitted it on here (or worked it out himself). A chip willnt get you 200hp for this you need other parts modified and that 2k is more a guesstimate from BenR saying the achaul work would cost £1400 and then fitment and...

Bigger injectors wont give you any more power bigger injectors need to mix with more air to make more power. Most people increase the amount of air going into the cylinder by intake mods and intake porting. But you need more fuel to mix with the air to make more power. The standard...

Yep the lambada sensor should do that but if your injectors are at 100% max then what more can they do. Lean mixtures will do damage to the engine

60mm is bit to much dont know how many thousand miles the shocks would last and how the handling would be. You should be able to get some spring ans uprated shocks for a decient price Demon Tweeks do adjustable shocks and 35mm drops for £300. I would say any more than 30mm on normal shock is...

I think its 636. You can just ring Renault up though or go into your dealership and ask them to do a check on the computer system

Ive added a cd changer to my clio Ive had to rejoin the cable together so that maybe the problem. But I cannot get the cd chager to work Ive unplugged the power from the cd player and reinputted the code a few times with the cd changer plugged in but ever time I power the CD player up I cannot...

Depends on how many miles you do. How about a kit car though cheap insurance and usually faster than anything else for the money. New shape 1.4 megan? Corsa SRI Skoda Fabia Mg Zr 160 build is terriable worse than Renault IMO though Honda Civic I have to admit that even cars which I...

Depend on how much you ant to spend a cold air intake and pannel filter would be the best gains IMO for money. No idea on cos but about £250 Id guess. After that cleaned up manifold and new cams are about £600. Any more than 190hp though and Id go for bigger injectors as the standard one...
