Best sounding exhaust for these imo, in fact with the flat spot issues on others, its probably the only worth while option?!

It depends what your used to, compared to modern stuff with super fast electric PAS, the steering feels heavy, compared to older stuff it will feel lighter!

one of the best mods you can do to them imo, I've done it to every one I've owned, the smoother idle and cold start behaviour is a nice advantage but for me the extra mid range and raised limiter is much nicer!

Yes I did! Removed the main connector from the abs pump, gave it a good clean with contact cleaner, plugged it in and out a few times, blew it out with compressed air and re fitted, was all good after that!

Love this van! - Also reminds me I must get a spare key made for mine!!!

Great buy, next to nothing to go wrong! - even cable throttle! I run about in a ph1 with the same engine, terrifying trying to join the motorway from a short slip road :ROFLMAO:

Couple of jobs carried out this week on the 197. First up was a set of 4x Michelin PS4 - long overdue, never been so glad to get rid of the Landsail budget crap that it came with - totally transformed it as expected! a new lower engine mount and upper engine stabilizer mount, just went genuine...

I'm not sure trading standards cover the Philippines lol he will deliver, he's been running the business for years and years and the rstuner map is still one of the best mods you can do to a mk2 clio RS

tbh Henks service can be slow BUT in my experience he always comes through. The last few I've done I've just bought the RStuner new and his service has been spot on with those

Welcome back!

I done one at work today with a swan neck spanner as I had left my tool at home last time I used it and f**k me its shite when your used to the above tool!

Might actually be a 10mm 😂

no wae a 14mm ye didny. deep 13mm

I wouldn't be starting that until someone has checked it out, did it get a full Aux belt kit at the time they were done?

Something on the timing side of the engine not happy by the sounds of it? Alternator, water pump, tensioner or idler. When was the last time it had its belts done?

that's just the way they were from the factory then everyone stuck eibachs on them!

the box ive got in my van came out a 182 with a short shifter, also crunches 5th, i just stuck a standard shifter back on it

Assuming the engine is good, and the RB shell is good, I don't see how this isn't already in the projects section?!

Very nice, only ph2 172 I've not owned is a Monaco....... Heads to ebay

I didn't have any issues as I was swapping everything and doing a 2.0 conversion. The loom connector on my DCI and 182 abs pumps were different but my DCI was an early 2001 so not sure if later ones are different. Not sure about swapping the rs abs on to a non rs car that is still running non rs...

Yeah cant be many at all, ph1 initiales were rare anyway, never mind in manual and that's before you get to the colour!

I just swapped the entire rear beam onto mine, the track didnt look massively wider though. Because i swapped the ABS pump (i was doing a full 2.0 conversion) then ABS wasnt an issue but im not sure on the solution if your retaining the K4M ABS, possibly a later 2004> 1.6 rear beam which came...

Best ph1 on here! love an initiale!

To wide track the front end you will need 172/182: Shocks & Springs front hubs to match the shocks (ie. if you use 182 cup shocks, use 182 cup hubs) front Anti roll Bar Front lower arms track rods/ends brakes Driveshafts You will need to research what you do with the ABS, I'm not sure if the...

I'm doing one tomorrow I'll check 👍

whats a ph1 twin cat worth 👀

so the megane will be an SUV, the kajar will be an SUV, the Koleos will be an SUV, the Captur will be an SUV and the Arkana will be an SUV.... Tragic coming from the company that brought us this video :ROFLMAO:

with you on the diesel thing, my mrs was looking at a Zoe but i convinced her to go for a mk5 DCi and its epic on fuel as expected! Get the heat gun on the plastics on that front bumper of the van!

They were a bloody bargain! was there not stories of people buying them pre reg for £10k?!

Seen that for sale over Alloa way this morning, was tempted to go for a look! looked pretty genuine?
