my mate is making a thread up on one of the owners clubs, ill get the link off him tomorrowi think its all still there for now

yep thats the one, still in the same spec really apart from new bilstein dampers all round as the old ones were getting a bit tired and a set of Advan A048 tyres, you would not beleive the grip it has with them on it lol valve stem oil seals are gone on it too so hes got a full gasket and seal...

being honest all petrol mk2 clios are completely shite on fuel, infact the 172 is the only one that is surprizingly good, i took my 172 to work the other day a 30 mile drive of part motorway, part b roads and wasnt driving hard yet wasnt really holding back and averaged 38mpg! my 100 however...

ahh thats cool cheers!

cool you got any other pictures of it you could pm or email me my mate would probably like to see them! its a beast i love it

my fully loaded dci has more luxurys than a bottom end bmw ;) lol

have you tested the new 205bhp engine yet? thoughts on it? assuming its just got the road 200's cylinder head?

was my mates, i just got the good job of breaking it lol bought it back from the insurance company for £400

its my mates engines for sale as is everything else, shell being scrapped. dont beleive how much all the parts go for, engine, box, ecu and wiring goes for about £2500 lol

rolled, roof and a pillar done in, i chopped the slam pannel off with an angle grinder to get the engine out lol

if your getting 55mpg in a 1.2 u will get 40mpg in a 172 1.2 16vs are terrible on fuel u wont be that much worse

was once a minter... now shes gone! away to the scrapyard in the sky!

new inlet setup must make a nice difference then, older k4m's dont rev very well!

whats the rev limiter on them?

assuming your vvt comment is a joke? lol

body roll isnt a bad thing though as long as its controlled, my standard 100 used to have quite a bit of body roll but it was controlled and still had plenty grip. people seem to think that because a car has bodyroll it doesnt handle.

i seriously doubt that, ive never driven a GT but im assuming its a bit better than Dyn S models, i had a shot of a 1.6 16v Dyn S and it handled brilliant for a standard car, it was more planted than a standard 172!

phase 1 172 would be my choice, much rawer than the ph2 cars i love mine same weight as the cup or their abouts, still get the luxury of half leather and air con, smaller 15" wheels make it handle better and make it more fun and chuckable, plus tyres are cheaper to go! plus £2500 buys you a...

in a GT, you can get anything u want if u ask the right people

next time ive got mine at work ill park beside it and we can be ph1 buddies!

they whistle when they are about to fall off or mine did anyway lol

yeah im not bothered about esp, pointless gimmick lol tom tom looks shat on it too. yeah not sure on the leather looks a bit like a cheap retrim, saw it in a few 197's too. would probably see what deal the dealer could do with recaros in it.

its nothing to do with the renault cat its the fact the engine if not used with the correct plugs wont give a clean burn killing cats

true but their is a renault tech note out about the F4R and only to use NGK PFR6E-10 dont know if its the cat killing issue that caused them to issue it or just the other engine related issues

i would love one but by the time you add climate, factory leather renaultsport upgrade and reach adjustable steering onto a GT DCi they are into 200 money!! however i couldnt afford a 200 every day to work and back!

cant see it being down pipe even with less back pressure as it wont make a massive difference, sounds like you have a leak, vacume hoses, inlet/TB gaskets etc checked all that?

afaik the lad 200bhp package is cams, map, exhaust, filter. not sure what cams tho. they never made the gains they claimed, do a search on here, they were invited to a RR day a while back and said they would come if the club paid their expenses, think they wanted insurance etc paid lol

i like it! get yourself over to www.cliodci.net

im not saying he has any reason to tell you wrong info all im saying is he has given you wrong info, do a search you will see what i mean
