ballache for not much gain. fairly straighforward to fix a snapped belt (top end rebuild) on the 1.2 8v anyway. did one this week. it's done 155k, and the bores were like new. Well worth fixing

best colour ph1. love it

going to need a full set of belts, buckles and pre-tensioners, along with a new "brain"

most likely his insurers will want you on cover for 1 month. Probably the best thing to do if it's not silly money Will dayinsure not do it for over 21s? is it 21 or 25 their cut-off?

standard fit on the 1.2 16v. very bad breather system on them

The parts to do it properly cost more than that. Gasket set (only ever use genuine) and an oil pump (never re-use an old one!!!!!!) is nearly £300 alone. bearings, rings, machining and cleaning add up to well over £700, and that's without assembly and fitting. You also need a proper oil feed for...

get genuine ones from renault. About £20 each

love them. That one has been for sale for a while IIRC. For 2 reasons, the reserve is too high (i've seen it hit a reasonable price) and the wheels ruin it (it NEEDS the originals)

C110 ;)

"better" is subjective.I'd go for the single rear box with a silenced mid section. I've also no idea what the BTB system fits like, for the money i'd want it to fit itself, but as far as the piper goes, no fitting issues, it's a lovely exhaust to fit, some popular ones are NOT, and for me as...

super 4 are toss. Well worth changing plugs way before 72k though. idiotic interval

helper springs are shite, and the rear damping and springs are both too soft on the normal setup. Generally they're very good though. For the road they're the biggest improvement straight out the box that i've seen on a clio. Only reason i can see the spring seats breaking is over tightening of...

Re: how do people lower their cars 50-60mm when my driveshafts are rubbing with just ph1 is lower to the ground than a ph2 for a start (smaller wheels) so referencing a trophy is pointless. Also the front wings are different.... Can't see why driveshafts would be a problem, there's been some...

much mose subtle/sensible than either of those. They can still sound fairly fierce with a decat though

could't be further from what i've seen TBH

I've fitted quite a few, but you're right they are rarer than some. Due to just being less pressure sold IMO. Superb quality system for the 182. My first choice EVERY time

try being more specific with dates etc and people will do what they're told ;) I'm still up for this, and I know a couple of people that havn't posted are interested

he was querieing the point of doing it, which on stock cams, there isn't one. Do you understand rhetoric? that's impossible on a 1*2. Can be done on a 197/200 though

Local specialist clio dealer that i do some work for had an 03 plate 172 in recently, I said probably worth £4800-5k, He put it up at £5995 and it sold in 10 days. CS definitely drives down the values

VVT is there to make the cam timing a lot more friendly at low RPM so the engine is generally smoother at low revs. Its switched at about 1800rpm as standard

Stock internals F4R, use your current DCOE bodies (Chadil do a manifold for the F4R though I've no idea what it's like. The Jenvey SF manifold will undoubtable be better quality) Catcams 421s. Done. Should see you at about 210-215 Keep the de-phaser in this instance IMO. You can get non vvt...

it's not too hard to change. not much fun though

there's a rubber gasket that sits in a groove

it's not a phone!!!! it's just an "i"

Blinkered view. Overheads are a killer

12 hours?? be surprised if all that took 6 hours

go to the JMS traders section and email Tom :) Cambelt prices are all published in there, think it's £380 now

I always run a separate earth from the headunit case to the body. I've had this before and it helps. Also had issues with poor earth points to the amp
