me: hi id like to order this part (hand piece of paper over with part number on it)
partsguy *playing on his computer*:what is it anyway
me: a clio 172 gearbox mount
partsguy:what age are you
me: 17 *with a confused look on my face*
partsguy: you sure its a 172 you have
me:no its a 1.2...
V6 style spoiler? lol whats V6 about that?
id get it lowered -60mm on the apex kit, standard backlights, colourcode it, civic ariel, clear side repeaters and silvervisions all round and it will look tidy
been looking into the 1.2 turbo myself not for the speed because it would cost mega money to go above 120bhp but just because it would be different, but really not worth the money
you can get coilovers for that money (i think)
or you could get a set of 40mm apex springs with uprated dampers for about £280 ish or something like that (dont know what uprated dampers the 2.0 boys use?) which leaves you with £200-ish for a set of braided brake lines and uprated pads or...
no they dont fit, different throttle body and airbox. saying that if its just a pannel filter your using they might be the same shape/size to save money so might fit even tho the airbox is different, ive never seen inside the ph3 airbox
get a Dynamique, Extreme 4/Campus sport are cheapo models, they have the cheap funny coloured seats which dont have the funkey headrests (dont have rear headrests at all!) no rear speakers, electric/heated mirrors, exterior temp sensor as standard these are all optional extras! yes they are...
mine has apex -60mm suspension kit, 130,000 miles of running in, i change oil every 6k for decent stuff, gets hammered regularly, EBC GreenStuff brake pads, only engine performance mods are induction mods (airbox modified for maximum airflow and hks pannel filter) and mine flys for what it is...
bet that sounds "interesting"? does it smoke a lot? does it sound much different from an aftermarket on a petrol, never heard a diesel with a different exhaust
seen a flame red 172 with a ClioSport sticker in the back window on the motorway near grangemouth, i was in the black 1.2 (wasnt trying to race you or be a ***** was just passing you when you passed me to let you see the car so you would maby remember it when you read this!)
anyone from here?
common problem for the cambelt to go when the aux belt goes, valves stay open and piston hits them = bent valves.
you'll get a new engine out it though!
need a price for 2x apex front dampers for a clio 1.2 16v with 58mm bolt spacing. these are the ones that come with the -60mm lowering kit for the car, my 2 are screwed and apex want me to buy 2 new ones then return the old ones for inspection/refund.
was thinking john at 2modified would...
hi just wondering how the front fog lights are attached to the front bumpers in mk2 ph2's
ive won a set on ebay (picture HERE) and dont know what i need to actually fit them.
cheers
fancied doing that because i only want them for thrashing down backroads dont want to cruise about with my sidelights and fogs on pissing people off lol
yep as said above expression with full dynamique interior (cheers mattT lol) inc silver dash inserts, door handles, handbrake button etc, dynamique wheels, dynamique spoiler, and soon fog lights.
all it needs now is silver dial surrounds and dark dash and its sorted :)
