RSi - RenaultSport Injection LOL
looking good giles, im in the mood for stripping mine and cleaning it now lol
so what you doing with the 1.2, it going to be your daily driver and the RSi a weekend toy?
its a short throw gear stick (with a shiney knob if your into that!)
its no different to drive arround town, just the same but doesnt have as much travel, makes the gearbox feel much better its like one of they racing sims u get at arcades lol
freds old 1.2 against a 1.6 focus and you say the focus would win, doubt it lol
im sure i remember the story from when i first joined about fred passing 172's on track in the 1.2.
the standard focus handles really well for what it is to be honest but its no match for a coilovered clio, what...
standard 15s with eagle F1s, colour coded, lowered 80mm on coilovers (60mm apex kit if you cant afford them) B&M quick shift will look good and be seriously fun to drive!
as the title says do foglights from a 172(cup) fit a 1.2 16v? they look the same to me but just wasnt sure, just ive found a set for sale with wiring which is unusual to find
cheers
think the Konigsports are what i want then, as i fancy bein able to adjust the damping because i like the ride pretty solid dont really care about ride quality lol#
ive noticed on a lot of coilover kits only the fronts are ride height adjustable is this the same with the konigsports?
both look cool although not a fan of the wheels id get a set of 15" dynamique wheels for it (think thats what hes lookin for anyway) 15s are the way forward
surprised no ones slated you for saying the wee 1.4 handles better than the 172 like i got when i said mine handled better than a 172
been saving up for a while and now about to throw yet another big lump of money at the car to get it the way i want it.
along with 4x eagle F1's, powerflex suspension and anti roll bar bushes and a catback stealth system with a sports cat im looking for some coilovers.
i dont want to spend...
mine has a little kink in it at the passengers side of the sunroof, my sunroof now creeks as the chassis flex's going round corners, it used to just rattle when you went over bumps but now you hear it when going round bends hard
172 is out question for 2-3 years,just looking at whats possible if the 1.2 gives up anytime soon as i dont want to put all the effort into the engine change for somethin thats the same if not slower
got another question regarding engine conversions and the insurance etc
right my car is a MK2 1.2 16v Expression, 2002 02 plate
the clio expression came in 1.2 8v, 1.2 16v, and 1.4 16v along with some diesel engines!
now is there any way i can change my log book etc so that it was a 1.6...
boil the kettle and pour it over the badges then just pull them off, might need to give the paint a little polish to remove excess glue but usually it doesnt leave any.
dont think i could ever sell mine,first car that ive had since i was 16, spent £3,000 on getting it just the way i want it (and it still looks standard LOL) i could get another car but dont think i could sell mine!!
lol this guys a fukin tosser, keith has modded his car or is in the proccess of modding his car so its exactly how he wants it, if thats how he wants to spend his money then who cares
