Sunflower ph1 172 spotted down southend seafront tonight,
had a sticker with joshwa on the window.
looked pure sex tbh,
also saw other cars saying R.I.P josh172?
not sure if the two are linked but it seemed odd.
i lowered on 60mm for wel over a year with no probs,
now im lowered a lot more,
changing springs is a 5 minute job,
if your lowering for look, 60mm is the least you can go, (otherwise nobody will notice)
however as said, 30mm eibatch springs do offer performance increase.
best place to go is FK,
delta mics are cheaper, but ive heard some very bad things about the bolts,
what size are you after??
are you getting ones that bolt to the hub? or just ones with longer bolts?
to get to the group buy, you have to become a paid member,
but if your looking into doing things to your clio then the for sale section has tones of good bits for sale.
also, cliosport hint, (to not be flamed)
use full english, no abreviations (sp)
never boast or admit to putting your foot...
snapped one of the handbrake cables possibly??
the cable is split into two cables (one for each drum) about half way down under the car.
snapping one would mean the car still holds itself, but youll have to pull it up a lot higher.
jack up the back, and see if the handbrake is locking both...
surely the wheel wont come off?!
the bolt on the axle will stop it coming off.
they will last for ages after they start going,
but its best to get it changed
frequency response of your standard speakers is not that important really,
are you refering to the HPF settings on your headunit? if so, set it to the 70-80hz mark as said above.
personally id never use 'bass boost' its on the same shelf as a power cap for me!
will amplify some of the bass...
will have to find out from the people that made them,
clip sounds almost identical to a normal signal, it just seriously over works the voice coil.
thats the best way of looking at clip, the amp can only amplify up to a certain voltage, after that, it will square off. its very hard to...
the BEST way to set it up is to get a 50hz frequency, along with other frequencies, (at 0dB)
play them at 75% headunit volume with no bass enhancements at all,
set everything on the amp to zero,
wire an oscilloscope to the output terminals on the amp,
set the scope to the correct input...
17s always work out bigger, no matter how much the tyre aspec seem to match up.
as said, 17s on a clio just doesnt go, looks far too high, and the wheels are too heavy.
get the standard 16s
looks good mate,
however this set up does get tiresome in a daily driver,
or after a two hour drive like i had to take today :( my arse is still dead lol
still worth it
ye man, the palm trees are going up :S
not much works down the bit where parking spaces are,
but outside the arcades is still abit of a mess.
i want to see ferry lane on a busy night, havnt had the pleasure yet lol.
is ferry lane not the place to go nowdays?
where abouts is it in lakeside people go now??
is it the tesco carpark? truckworld? or those two roundabouts over the shopping centre??
but as said, fingers crossed its southend season again soon!
Took a long drive yday, and now when traveling at slow speed, it clunks.
It happens going over big bumps (speed humps), but also when changing gear, seems a lot of resistance when sliding from first to second (didnt try any othe gears) anything anyone can suggest?
Cheers
wileys old car isnt it.
each to theyre own,
obviously a lot of work gone into it......but its not for me
also i just noticed, this car was built in my area! :P
clio B?
do you mean mk2 ph2 182? (by your details on the right?)
and no, im pretty sure you need 1*2 springs on an RS because of the weight of the engine,
1*2 springs in a nonsport will most probably raise it! lol

it says in the advert, clio 1 (52mm spacing)
want to know if they will fit a mk2 ph1 grande, (again 52mm bolt spacing)
not really too sure how much it differs from mk1 to mk2.
cheers.
cheers guys,
one more question,
http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pages/products/product_info.mhtml?product=3915844
this advert says clio 1,
but it says 52mm spacing.
will this fit a mk2 ph1 ok??
cheers.
A 1.2 8v mk2 ph1 clio RN Grande.
i tried to measure, but got confused if i was meant to measure from the centre of each hole, or by the closest edge.
so if anyone could advise,
it would greatly help.
fill doesnt add much weight,
and the wheels are small, and normally from very good brands,
so theyre not going to be any heavier,
but the overly lowered suspension, does make things abit bumpy.
the ph1 would be gorgeous if the front bumper didnt sag so much!!
it doesnt have a rear bumper on...
