    Suspension - What do I do???

    ^ me either. On a budget ? Eibachs for now for teh lowz .. then save up for Koni adjustable shocks. Not sure on price TBH but pretty highly rated alternative to coilies IIRC.

    The fourth and final incarnation!

    Monaco looks ace when clean, sort of purpley blue .. Wheels need to stay silver to look right though. I think you'll be bored in weeks (days?!) after having a ph1 .. I know I was. ;)

    The fourth and final incarnation!

    You wanted a ph1 or a cup, so you bought the least exciting of the mk2 (RS) range ? Bravo !

    sludge changed

    Was it tight, or just impossible to get to ? I hope you removed the fuel rail guard first ;) If the oil hasn't been changed since 'Nam, I guess the filter has welded itself on anyway. Hammer, big screwdriver or an old chisel .. bish bash bosh, you're away :) Also, not the worst idea ever to...

    clio 1.2 sport 2001 with 172 sport 2001 front bumper

    Been done to death on here .. do a search :) Wings and arch liners at a minimum to fit. Then your wheels will look completely hilariously lost as it's a good inch or so wider than the 1.2 ... Good luck ;)

    Newbie to Clios

    Missus has a scoob as a run about .. haha ! Ace :) Welcome :D Where you from ?

    Looking at 172s (03/53 there or there about plate)

    If you're on a budget, look at Ph1's .. SO much nicer to drive and look much better IMO too.

    Blanking off number plate....

    For what possible reason ? They look stupid without numbers on .. and it's on show the rest of the time. Stick some gaffa/masking/insulating tape over the plate, or remove it.

    NEW......BIE

    Welcome ! What made you get a Clio ?! How are you coping with the downgrade in performance !? I went from 300+HP Classic Impreza to Ph2 RS Clio and was bored in seconds forever waiting for the non-existant turbo to spool haha ! :o

    South West Krispy Kreme meet. Monday 29th August.

    ^ FLOL .. Best photo of his shed I've ever seen. He should take more like that... do us all a favour. Also, William, why would I want to drive a 300 mile round trip to eat donuts when I'm standing next to a donut shop !? Silly boy.

    That EGR valve :dead: .. this is why all cars should be driven properly (when warm!!). Take it to/near the red line at least once each journey (as long as it's properly warm like 10/15 mins of driving) and it'll keep it clear. Sash's dCi used to just billow smoke Uncle Buck style until I did a...

    Been having a few problems with my MBP

    What sort of programs are you using !? :S I leave my 2008 poverty spec Intel iMac on (it sleeps when I'm not using it) for literally months at a time.. no issues with RAM filling up. Go to Crucial and fit it yourself :) Apple will want a fortune to buy/fit that... if that's what you were...

    What colour is my car?

    Gris Boreil (spulling fail) ? What's the paint code on the VIN plate say (think that's on the B-pillar) ?

    17" wolfrace

    Bearing in mind you've not told us what the offset, PCD or what the stud fitment is, I'm going to say it's 50/50. Maybe they will, maybe they won't... :-S However, 17"s + mk2 Clio = comedy ride and tramline city. Have fun !

    D90 images - not sharp... what am I doing wrong?!

    What's the full exif run down for both ? I'd guess the ISO was higher in the sharper image due to the noise...

    The "Ive taken a pic and I kinda like it" thread

    My photography portfolio is about 99.9997% cars, 0.0003% cats, zero percent people. Decided to up my percentage this evening. I tied Sash up so she couldn't run away, and voilá... The best two: Curls by evil_giraffes_rule, on Flickr Playing with shadows by evil_giraffes_rule, on Flickr

    Bleeding technique?

    Wd40 isn't a penetrating fluid. It just makes sh*t rust faster ;)

    How have I broken my IE

    This bug crops up for me from time to time... I think it's PH as I'm using Chrome on OS X.

    Ph 1 172 what silver have i got?

    Does it have a blue tinge to it ? If so, it's Iceberg: Clio by evil_giraffes_rule, on Flickr To compare, HOU, Titanium, OTT, Iceberg.: _MG_5945 by evil_giraffes_rule, on Flickr

    This advert is a joke right?

    I recognise that .. I guess it's been on here at some point, either spotted or shot down in flames in media somewhere. Do not want. Advert is also hilariously terrible. "done a 1.8 Astra" ? Amazing. I overtook an F40 in my old Clio .. true story.

    another day, another partial wrap

    Work looks good as normal... However, the roof MB by itself doesn't suit at all IMO. I must be getting old :S

    ph1 172 leak from roof light cluster

    Ph1 ? That'll be the Aerial hole in the roof. Whip the light off, no need to remove the headliner. You'll see a nut + what looks like a stud, that's the bottom of the aerial. Take it all off... Bit of silicone, or some thick foam to fit under the base, and make sure it's done up tight and...

    Can 'Update List' directly replace a 'Tuner List' without cutting or changing wires?

    Re: Can 'Update List' directly replace a 'Tuner List' without cutting or changing wir Why bother ? Put a decent HU in there like Alpine.
