i found filling the gearbox with oil harder than changing the gearbox and clutch lol cheers for all the suggestions guys ill keep them in mind :)

motorsport world do powerflow now and they are very good at exhausts, mine is perfect

yep and deffo worth while for the small extra it costs, engine flush isnt needed eather, as long as the engines warm it will be ok

i dont think i could drive one lol i find 172 clutches heavy!

and a c**t to change too lol thats what im doing it while engine/box is out!

what sort of difference? smoother changes etc?

Whats the best engine oil and the best gearbox oil to use in a 1.6 16v was thinking about this royal purple stuff (think that was what it was called) but cant find it anywhere to see just how expensive it is! i can get a good discount on millars motorsport oil too? any ideas cheers

needing some part numbers and prices engine is a 1.6 16v k4m cambelt kit (does this inc tensioners etc?) (does the waterpump need done like the 1.2s on this engine too at cambelt time?) Clutch kitcheers, martin

mine doesnt have a centre box as standard, neather does my stainless one

no probs cheers! martin

currently got a 1.2 16v with a custom cat back exhaust on it. ordering my 1.6 16v engine and box this week and need to know what to do about an exhaust.... im ordering the SuperSprint stainless manifold and front section (decat) will this fit straight on to my custom cat back exhaust (been...

optional extra lol

not sure if its a sports cat or not, pipe looks a bigger bore on the cat so possibly. if it fits ok then it should be fine

weird, but suppose it doesnt do any harm just doesnt look as good, 1.2 clocks go to 150mph and 7250rpm so does the job, but no trip computer on those ones

firstly check tyre pressures, next check the dampers to see if any are leaking and lastly do you have 4 tyres the same or at least 2 front the same and 2 rear the same (i always try to replace in pairs)

haha thats brilliant saxos are made of tin wouldnt have hurt him if it rolled over him lol my mate rolled one and it only took 3 of us about 5 seconds to get it back on its wheels!

monster! loving the 1.2 badges!

my engines millage stoped getting any higher yesterday, another one bites the dust! on the bright side its getting dropped out the car tomorrow when ive got time and phoning matt black for my new 1.6 16v :)

Apex do coilovers aswell tho. nothing wrong with apex, never tried their coilovers but got a set of dampers and springs on mine and there more than upto the job, we'll see how they do with the weight of the new engine. got a mate with a starlet gtt with TRD springs, KYB shocks and Whiteline...

not quite sure what you mean, try explaining it a bit better so we know what you mean

clips snapped, common problem ive had to fix loads, i tried superglue and it worked for a bit but then came off again, what i do now is... you will see at the back of the gaitor at the bottom plastic bit (bit closest to back of the car) there is a little rectangle plastic bit sticking down...

worth changing the cable, i changed my clutch and it got twice as light as it previously was, then when i changed the cable it once again got twice as light, its brilliant now never driven a clio with a clutch as light as mine! was only about £30 for the cable i think

wouldnt think anymore than £20 for fitting, its £30 i think for a new one i snapped mine only took 5 mins to fit but the engine was out at the time so that kinda helped, took me about 15 mins to do a mates with the engine in, bit of poking and fiddling about!

looking at a 1.6 16v clio with climate and xenons 350 miles away in a renault dealership, can local dealers source cars from other dealers and get this brought down here for me? or does it not work like that lol? cheers

turn your fogs off lol

because i liked the look of it and couldnt afford one at the time

loli done my oil every 5k in the summer before the engine started to go, gave up now untill new engine goes in and it'll be every 5k again

I see what you mean about the back looking funny. mine used to be like that. you need...... Dynamique Spoiler Silvervision indicator bulbs clean reg plates with no screws or advertising! (www.fancyplates.com)

wouldnt bother getting the manifold if your not going to decat it to be honest. if your doing it do it properly and do full system!

even 6bhp is probably unlikely, well on a standard engine which i assume is what superchips are talking about. with the mods you said above and a REMAP instead of a chip you may be looking at 120bhp 125bhp if your lucky, with a filter and inlet manifold work from BenR
