youre saying that the wishbone is being allowed to move so far that the very large and obvious bend in this sleeve was caused by the wishbone?! that is about 10mm of lateral movement!! something is seriously wrong, if the polyeurethane is there and cased both sides witha metal sleeve inside and...

the welding is also terrible!! very low contact with the wishbone and its just blob of weld!! and you also havnt explained why the sleeves are bent?! theyre terribly fitted so everythings just going to come back to that issue first!! lol get some new wishbones and use the normal sleeves and...

buy a 172!! not worth the hastle of converting it!! youll spend more than the cost of a 172 and be left with a car thats worthless!! and it still wont have the looks/equiptment of a 172. all the interior will be a straight swap from your current clio. also will be a bit of a pig to insure!!

Ill echo what everyone else has said, sleeves are not far enough out. The amount of exposed bush left out with allow for a certain amount of deformation due to the material. More rubber / less metal, more movement. More movement means chewed up bushes!! also (and im surpised nobody else has...

great digging skills if this is actually the car, proof that you cant run from the internet!! also a bit odd that theyve listed the car as a 2010 car when i dont even think the 197s were made that year, clearly not that clued up on renaults. has anyone thought of contacting the seller of the...

Re: yokohama parada??? any gd try and get some rain sport 2's, great tyre! i ran pradas on my mk1 and i found them to very good in the dry!! never really pushed it in the wet so i couldnt comment, but for the price theyre a good tyre!! miles better than the proxies imo

any rear axle will fit, But the anti roll bar in the non-sport rear beams is a lot thiner and will therefore compromise the handling!! ph1 172, ph2 172, cup will all have the same rear beam iirc, (23mm sway bar) non-sports have something like a 17mm sway bar, and the bars are welded in and...

i could sell you a new airbag ECU for £20 posted ;) go to a strap yard for the seat and hope to find one thats not gone off. all the safety equiptment is not designed to be actived more than once so personally id pick up new pretensioners, seatbelts if you want to retain the safety features of...

as long as its not a show cage id defs take it for that price!! you can always sell it on if you change your mind!! personally i love cages, they make a car look so purposeful! if you're using it as a harness bar, please make sure its a suitable cage and mounted correctly!! it will hike your...
