Ok great, would you also say its worth changing the lines for braided ones at the same time?

Thanks for the quick response, it's what I thought but I read some threads that made me question it! I imagine 1ltr will also be enough for the whole system?

I'm planning on changing my brake fluid for some ATE super blue however what's the best way to remove the old stuff? I'll be using a Gunson Eezibleed kit for reference.

Mine was fine, transferred between a couple of cars and worked spot on.

I've got a folder full of RS Tuner maps, if you need any drop me a PM.

Definite improvement when scrubbed in, they're a wet tyre though and they do perform well in those conditions. Might swap mine for something else for the summer months.

I was happy with mine until I noticed the passenger side front has started to melt on the edge! Very rarely push the car and they've only covered 2k max. I'm keeping my eye on pressures etc so only time will tell how many miles they last.

I'm hopefully planning on gathering the parts up for a low pressure turbo conversion (230bhp) this year and have a few questions - Can I still keep Cruise Control? Will I need to a fit a Megane head gasket? What's the best ECU to go for on a budget (and keep CC)? Will I need a fly by wire...

I'll take a look this weekend and report back. To be honest it's ticked over 100k now so things will need replacing I imagine.

I wish it took me 10 mins, as it's inside the inlet manifold it's just a pain. I'll probably give it a go this weekend just to rule it out, the one thing I didn't know how to do was release the pressue on the fuel line, it just pissed out everywhere! It's idles fine (not sure what the preset...

I had the TB off last year and replaced it for a second hand unit, it was sticking wide open as it's electronic and French! The second hand unit was super clean when it went in and taking it apart is a ballache so I'd like to steer clear of it until needs be. The hesitation is mainly when you...

Recently it's decided to develop a habit of hesitating when pulling out of juctions or accelerating. My first thought was the TDC sensor but I replaced that about 2 years ago along with the coil pack, surely they won't have died already?

Anyone have any ideas? One wire has also corroded and snapped off in the plug. How do the plugs come apart? It's got a clip on the top to open it but the wires are still stuck in solid.

I use the Triple QX 5w40 Fully Syn in the 1.2 Clio and I've not had any problems and I've been using it for years.

My headlight has been intermittent for a couple of weeks now so I decided to have a look at the weekend and found the xenon igniter pins had corroded. I've now obtained a new igniter however the remaining part of the old pin is stuck in the igniter plug. Any ideas how I can get this out...

No chance you'll post?

I'm also tempted to give them a go it'll be my first track orientated tyre so nothing to compare. I wonder if Camskill will be lowering the price even more?!

Not known as making the best road tyres however will anyone be trying the new semi slick option? They seem to be a reasonable price at £78 a corner. http://www.tegiwaimports.com/nankang-ns-2r-195-50r15-82w-tyre-180-street-4011/ http://www.nankangtyres.com.au/tyre59/ns-2r.php

T1R's are ok but would much prefer Hankook V12's over them.

172 Cups came with 195 tyres as standard all 182's came with 205. I've had both and prefer the feel of the 205 tyres, just feels like the sidewalls have more support.

Plenty of threads if you search 'Engine dynamics turbo conversion' I think a few people on the forum have had it done. Seems a reasonable price (in the Clio world) for a nice power increase.

Yeah they might see the track at some point so we'll see what happens. If they perform better or similar then I'll be happy especially for the money!

I've just ordered a full set of Rainsports to stick on my standard wheels, they currently have Hankook V12's fitted and they've been really good. Just wondered if anyone else has moved from V12's to Rainsports or vice verser and noticed any differences?

I'll agree the fit is really bad, it took a lot of fiddling on the ramps to get it sat perfect. The tail pipe design and noise is really good, it's louder than standard but not intrusive. I had a decat fitted on mine for a couple of months and it did drone a lot on the motorway. I did however...

Slightly off topic but think I saw the car your on about when I went to Alp D'Huez last month -

Yeah they're off a non sport, just need them to sit the car on whilst my wheels are being refurbed.

Will mk3 15" Clio steelies fit on my 182?

Mines got a standard CAT fitted with Yozza and passed it's MOT a couple of months ago. Would a sports CAT unleash some rasp or is it a de-cat only thing?

Also never used it, great find!
