I wouldn't consider a car that was needing a service as if someone didn't spend the money when it was due a service what else did they neglect? that's my way of looking at it
not sure if its been covered in here after your first question but when I had my clio 200 RR'd at 203bhp, it was on par with all my lightly modded 172s performance wise and my mates 350z would pull on me once we got into triple figures, his was an early one so I believe the lowest power output...
if its a 172 then that's definitely low and I would be looking at tyre pressures, check for sticking callipers, lambda sensor, thermostat and coolant temp sensor.
no idea on the details of the ECU, I would basically transplant all the ecu and wiring from a Twingo fitted with the 1.2 TCE engine into the clio. Of course its probably better just to sell up and buy the twingo but if you can get the bits cheap enough it would be a cool project.
As far as I...
get the alloy inlet manifold, turbo and exhaust manifold from the TCE, clio 172 injectors and fuel pump, fit a front mount intercooler with some custom pipework.
engine management is the main issue, you would either have to go standalone or the route id go down is Twingo TCE management, retro...
I done it without removing the passengers side shaft as I had just not long done the box oil., I just removed the 2 ball joint to bottom arm bolts and the 2 strut to hub nuts and bulled the hub and shaft towards me with the box!
na not mine, mine went a year ago thank god! that is one car you do not want to own lol!
If its black your one then I know the one your talking about I saw it the other day, looked a good buy
every month in the summer the carpark was closed off as there was no spaces left, cops were leaving everyone too it too! even at one point everyone started the old skool 20 guys holding the car by the bonnet and doing massive burnouts lol cops just kept a distance!
ive got a 1year old LG SMART TV, luckily I have an HTPC and didn't buy it for its SMART capabilities as it is utterly hopeless, not sure if the modern ones are any better I notice the description mentions dual core there so they may have sorted it.
Ive tried youtube on it and its slow, buffers...
I tried 8.0 when it first came out and couldn't stand it, then a few months later decided to give it another go and a longer try, same issue hated it.
Installed 8.1 last night (90 day evaluation) and it was much much better! and I could have lived with it however my Intel Z87 chipset seems to...
glad you like it!
I just feel they are too normal looking if it had a 1.2 under the bonnet it wouldn't look all show no go, where if you had a mk3 200 with a 1.2 engine it would look so much faster than it actually was!
as above, at 19k with a manual box, LSD and 240bhp, id be all over it.
at 19k as it is, assuming a dealer was willing to sell me one, im out.
Fiesta ST all day every day, infact as per my thread in other marques my choice would be Fiesta ST or Corsa VXR nurburgring before one of these.
what was fred @ BTM's one about them having faster piston movement than a Renault f1 engine or something?! due to the bore and stroke
if you turn the heated rear windscreen on the wing mirrors heat up
