    Clio 1.2 TCE in Mk2 chassis??

    be a cool idea to reshell a twingo GT in the mk2 shell, just fit the dash/dials etc just do everything, that would make it a doddle!

    pops and bangs

    ktec will be able to map it to do pops and bangs if they do custom maps, i beleive they were for a while? i dont get this "i dont want to loose the 5k kick" thing, who doesnt want to loose a flat spot?

    Considering a clio diesel

    yeah one lady owner, long mot on it isnt too shabby!!! just make sure it pulls well in every gear with no hesitation or flat spots or importantly warning lights. it should keep pulling storong to 4,000rpm, that last 1000rpm between 3k and 4k usually shows any weaknesses in the fuel system with...

    Clio 1.2 TCE in Mk2 chassis??

    similar but use the newer style gearboxes which i beleive are mounted slightly different to the block cant confirm that though. either way the linkage is different they use a hydraulic clutch i think (the dci100 does anyway) and the gear linkage is on the top of the box rather than underneath

    Clio 1.2 TCE in Mk2 chassis??

    engine mounts are the same. your gearbox doesnt fit i dont think as it uses the newer boxes, you could just use one of the new boxes with a DCi 100 gear linkage setup though or have a plate made up to adapt your box to the new bottom end

    From Renault Sport Clio to Renault Clio Sport

    as i said ive never driven a 192/200 so im not sure if its the chassis in general or just a mix of the chassis and diesel engine/lack of pace in mine, i find it stable fast rather than fun fast, where a 172/182 is fun fast!. not sure if its as i said my boring engine giving me this feeling or...

    Clio 200 a turbo?

    From Renault Sport Clio to Renault Clio Sport

    no chance, its not as nimble but its a different ball game in handling and stability. i can carry 172 pace through bends in my standard GT, id imagine a 197/200 with stiffer suspension, wider tyres and brembos is another level above that!
