not really

you can replicate a very similar effect with cam timing though. As i said a few posts earlier, clever use of VVT ;)

you're mostly looking at 256/264/272 degree cams on the SR for aftermarket, and the lift is still less than an F4R stock cam. What's an SR20DET stock inlet cam? 9mm lift? and aftermarket is roughly in the 10 to 10.5mm region?

you need a head gasket kit to change cams? really? you need more timing tools than that, and that horseshoe tool isn't the strongest. They bend easily

Flat side outwards

like this you mean? ;) It's been done a half dozen times or so, you need to do a bit of work to the adaptors but it works :)

Firstly, assume nothing. Only way to tell is try it. Everyone said the subframe had to come off the 172 to fit the 182 manifold, even with the engine out. Mine popped in with zero effort.

Both sit near enough flush, in by 1mm wont hurt as long as it's even and straight

it's relatively simple to account for this by moving the switch points of the vvt. Everyone forgets you can raise the rpm that it engages aswell as altering the top switch point

this wheels look amazing on there! do something really really silly!

no you're wrong. as i said, it was mapped with the ph2 airbox on to start with

genuine only, so renault

they are

driving style. Adey is an animal with boxes

I did 6 on my mk1, trying different brands each time (lets call it research :p) ABK have lasted well enough to make me happy to sell them

it's valid. Personal taste if you like them really. I do have a number of people mentioning they're not different to standard by any moticable margin which they're disappointed with

more likely rocker cover than head gasket. if it were headgasket it would be a lot more money than that both are cambelt off jobs, which by that costing I doubt will be replaced or refitted correctly

not anymore, used to be on fastchips but got taken down

the slot in cams is ofset. Bigger D faces up

I've changed 3 rears in the last week that were around 6 months old. Guess what make they were

KYB are OE KYB = Kayaba, and they dont make gas-a-just in clio fitment.

bit of grease on the point where the spring touches the shock/spring cup and the noise will be gone.....until the grease washes/rubs away

can do various shock and spring packages. Loads of options available for non sport clios, and upgraded dampers are actually worth it on a 1.2

CHEAP non gen are utter shite

they ALL melt. 1.2s, cups the whole lot. I saw a micra not long ago, same issue

I should point out that's alongside matched inlets and headwork with standard cams ;) Made 179bhp and 168lb/ft

ph1 I did some engine work on was mapped last week. Due to coming with a crappy cone, it had a ph2 airbox fitted. made mediocre bhp and decent torque. A Maxogen (which I've always rated as far too expensive for the gains) went on and with minor map tweaks it made another 8bhp!! ph2 airbox is a...

multitude of reasons not to run gauzes like those. Mainly: they disrupt airflow at the sides of the trumpet (where the majority of the air comes from) they filter very little but large stones. Grit, dust and all sorts of other foreign bodies will still go straight into the engine

ofset would be aweful

it's £77.60 for a genuine bearing. I'd not advise using cheap non gen stuff as it wont last long at all. F.A.G. are the same as genuine in a different box. I've also found ABK bearings to be good your car uses the 37x72x37 bearing
