Ok Peeps,
Ive written a chat room for ClioSport forum users and it is hosted on this site.
This is the first cut and therefore it is Basic in the feature list.
Id like you to give it a go to see how it performs and to find out if there are any major bugs with it.
A couple of things...
No worries Simon. Ive been looking at the 20vt Coupe and with some mods. can get these to 280 bhp and more. have seen a 340 bhp one that does 0-60 mph in 4.4 seconds !
I really like these cars....

Spy Cam Active ;)
Hmmmmmm. Just read this and im going to lock it.
Have a think about this.... Maybe if someone is being a total pain in the ass then you as a Forum user decide on whether they stay or go - you have your say. Should they stay or should they go - a question to you all.
It might be a good way of...
Ok,
dogmaul was the first to make a cash offer and being fair and square I have given him till tom. 13:00 to make payment as I understand others are interested.
Fred has first refusal after dogmaul as he has also shown interest. Ive had to do this on first offer first served.
For anyone who wants this it is a simple process. Send me payment via eBanking. I will contact Eurotunnel and get my name changed to yours along with your car reg. and email you to confirm. Clear it with your insurance company - simple phone call. Job done. Group booking at the hotel so you will...
Well, since the advent of the single market, it is technically correct to say that a motorist with any UK car insurance policy has car insurance cover that is automatically valid in all countries of the EU. Thats technically speaking. You would automatically be covered as third party.
Best...
Trip is for four days from Friday 18th April to Monday 21st April and includes Hotel Accommodation at the Novotel Brussels.
If you fancy challenging French street racers in Lille, Sight Seeing the many attractions, driving around Nurburgring, sampling some European Culture... then this is an...
Due to personal circumstances my place is available for the Trip to Belgium.
This place is for one vehicle and you can bring a passenger and share the room in the Hotel.
Im looking for offers around £200. If you are interested then please PM me or email me...
Must be a bit frustrating knowing that you would wipe the floor once run in and him probably thinking that he did you.
How many miles have you done know anyway?
50 bhp shot of NOS and lighten the car by removing the spare wheel, toolkit, rear seats, air con. ;-) etc.
This will be the cheapest way of raising your bhp/torque per ton figure.
Majority of vehicles before end of 2000 will probably only have one lambda so early MK1 172s dont have the problem and will benefit from a decat pipe.
The downstream lambda sensor is used to check that the CAT is doing its job properly - e.g. working. The ECU checks the O2 reading before and...
One way would be to modify the ECU program to ignore the downstream lambda sensor. I reckon it is possible.
I did look at buying a kit that plugs into the Diagnostic port and then allows a PC, Windows Based PDA, Palm to be connected and you can then monitor loads of variables and even alter...
Paul, one thing I noticed when looking under the bonnet of JASs new 16v is it should be possible to move the battery backwards towards the bulkhead on the same side as there is enough space here - you would need to have a holder fabricated though to house it.
Like you said removing the battery...
They charge based on the BHP percentage increase I think.
So it should be less than 10% power gain and I think I paid somewhere between £25 to £35 extra per year. Funny enough they wacked on about £60 for declaring the uprated suspension !
I guess this amount will be variable based on your...
One way to stop the light coming on is to fit a resistor inline between the ECU and downstream lambda sensor - this then places the reading in the range that the ECU is happy with.
I had this done on my 172 - however they had to remove the downstream lambda sensor as they couldnt tap in near...

Good that you posted the article as I dont know of anyone else who has had head work done on the 172. Come along to future meetings and Im very interested to see your car on the rollers to see what it knocks out. Which part of the country are you based in?
I was reading somewhere that the 1.2 engines respond well to tuning. The std. injection system is a good one.
Have you considered the sports manifold with a decat pipe - I reckon that should release quite a few more.
With head/cams and ported inlet manifold and modified body it would be...
Simon172 - Hi Si, I have looked into all sorts of mods and experimented with doing various stuff. The figures of 1100 kg was on a weigh bridge with full tank of fuel and spare wheel/toolkit in place. I dont have those in my car most of the time and that saves me around 20 KG. As far as mods. go...
Nice !,
Also how about phase 2 rear lights and plastic coach strips colour matched.
Is that mesh you have in the front grill?
Can you recommend somewhere to get the silvervisions online?
