    250bhp??

    225-230 is a relatively "straightforward" achievement with a full performance engine build and good add-ons. More than that and it starts getting hard. Working on it. With a turbo it's a piece of piss

    Increased Displacement?

    84mm gives 2062cc. Maximum bore...I honestly dont know without some serious measurement and probably destroying a block. would probably have to involve an x-ray machine to measure bore thickness, or cut a cross section to achieve the same. Cylinders would be getting a bit close with more than...

    Increased Displacement?

    can go from a 82.7mm bore to 84mm bore, pistons available from multiple manufacturers. a stroker crank would be a lot of cash, money better spent elsewhere. To be honest, it's a 2 litre already, so it's a pretty decent capacity to start with. Better to look at raised compression and cams if you...

    Help! My Brothers got fairly big problem with his insurance

    not unusual if you're paying instalments, I'd ask for clarification. They're probably asking for the balance of the credit, then will issue a refund. Dodgy way of doing it and there's no need for them to be idiots, but they try it on and people fall for it

    172/182 supercharger

    the super charger pulley is where the aux belt idler would have been, everything else is in almost stock position, but on a machined aluminium bracket

    172/182 supercharger

    remember how weak the pound is to the euro at the moment, then consider rotrex chargers come from europe. Price estimates are way short

    clio going for ITB's tomorrow

    there's NO extra charge for the map that's supplied. There's several maps for the slight different engines (ph1/ph2 etc) developed over nearly 2 years. Anyone is free to request custom mapping, for an additional charge, but the gains would be very minimal, if anything.

    Wheel Bolt snapped

    3 bolts is safe enough on a temporary run around basis, dont leave it like that too long though. normally easy to just remove all the brakes and get some pliers/grips on the back of the thread and it will wind through, easier than trying to wind it back out

    clio going for ITB's tomorrow

    if you had the full kit it doesn't need mapping :S edit, cams too, forgot that bit doh, carry on

    How to remove locking wheel nuts without the key..

    renault can often get you a duplicate key if you have enough details. give them a call and see what they need

    The JDM Appreciation Thread...

    get an Apexi GT if you can find one, amazing systems. I had a blitz on my s13 for 7 days, and paid (!!!!) to get hold of a standard system so i could take it off, hateful thing

    Best 172 pads for track.

    we've got mintex F4 pads in our wilwoods. not sure if there's a std clio fitment yet, but they're the b****cks. very similar to carbone lorraine. Dont touch EBC anything, DS3000 would be better than DS2500 for purely track. Can't comment on PF, though they do have a good rep

    Engine Tuning

    I dont think it's harder to tune a clio than a saxo, just less people believe the pub figures. Things like exhausts and airfilters wont really give power hikes on their own (decat is probably most noticable) but can help with response, and be less of a restriction when you do start to do more...

    First Track Day Do I need Different Pads

    your discs will be contaminated with EBC compound. they wont work as well as they can with any other compound unless you get new. We use Mintex pads, 1155 would be good for you IMO

    clio going for ITB's tomorrow

    the 600 is quite capable of anything a 172/182 needs to run. 710 would be necessary for anything with more than 4 cylinders or with fully sequential ignition. For example the 197 runs coil on plug/sequential ignition and constantly variable inlet timing, so the higher spec ECU is needed. The...

    clio going for ITB's tomorrow

    omex 710 does pretty much exactly whatever a motec m800 can do, for less than 1/3 the price.

    timing belt cost?

    very easy to assess. pointless waste of money fitting something that's not needed. Belt is a service item, tensioner isn't

    timing belt cost?

    belt alone is about £20, very very rare to need the tensioner changing. takes me 2 hours

    Turbo project!!!

    excessive IMO, though the sadev is a very good box. plenty of other areas to improve and christ, for the money you can do a hell of a lot, including a proper ECU

    sequential box is £££££££ considered a quaife ATB instead?
