    daves phase 1 172

    Erm, they're not great IMO. They have a reputation for knocking and leaking. They're a cheap coilovers company, always have been. I wouldn't run them if I was given them. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?688943-Spax-quality-issues

    box out the top help

    I don't remove the box fully either, slide it over rest it on the subframe.

    daves phase 1 172

    The only strut brace that works is the pure Motorsport one, because it actually mounts to the suspension strut rather than the turret. The rear is plenty stiff enough :) Just trying to save you some money, that way you can spend on more beneficial items. I'd recommend a rear anti roll bar...

    daves phase 1 172

    Don't worry about the manifold, the OEM one isn't a restriction. Strut braces unless its a pure Motorsport one, don't make a difference. The OEM fuel system isn't an issue unless your the right side of 210bhp, and you won't achieve that without ITB's. Looks good for what you paid for...

    Clio 172 phase 1 timing settings

    EFA ;) But yes, myself and mike will time it up properly for a fee. We have the set of tools required to do so.

    box out the top help

    Eh? Is it f**k! Coolant drain, exhaust to disconnect, air con to mess around with etc etc. It takes me an hour extra to do a complete box change than it does to remove the engine alone.

    The runabout.. Staying standard. Well was.

    Come across the next issue. PAS pump sits too low, so I will have to either run an EPAS setup or go for the saxo pump idea.

    Mk1 gearbox

    Meganes and clios share the same casings. You may just need to use a mk2 clio upper gearboc mount.

    Tbh, it's sat on the floor now, and its ride height isn't much if any different.

    Bolts are in the bell housing. Just beside th rest of th gearbox bolts.

    51 plate 172 clio, various issues, hole in the block??

    Tbh it sounds like you need it looked at by someone who knows what they're doing. Head gaskets are an extremely rare occurrence. I haven't come across one yet.

    Changing a ph1 idle control valve?

    I don't think it's a genuine item.

    I had half hour spare this afternoon, so a Small update... It fits :)

    172 clio information

    Tbh that doesn't mean a thing. I've seen both 51 and Y plate Ph1's and seen quite a few Y plate ph2's.

    172 clio information

    It seems an odd step to put a ph1 front end on. It's a lot of work for a start. Does it have a cable throttle?

    Place a piece of tape over the hole on the underside of the drivers wing mirror.

    It could be a late PH1... But Cups were 2003(52) on to 2004(04) in my experience.

    I'll be totally honest. The wheels look hideous IMO.

    Clunking noise a bit like when TC kicks in.

    Potentially a worn engine mount.

    Engine rattle (not dephaser)

    Without a video we can't really give an opinion.
