seems to be a common problem in winter i remember last year about 40 posts in one day with people complaining about it!! renault replace the dials under warenty but they cant correct the millage so it goes back to 0, and can look dodgey when you come to selling the car...
i wasnt asking if it was worth it, and i dont want it to make my car a 172, if i wanted to make my car a 172 id have bought one, to un reliable for me ;)
anyway, most online places are selling sports cats for £250-ish so anyone know anything about this k-tec one and why its so expensive? i...
whats so special about K-Tec's new Sports-Cat for the 1.2 16v that makes it worth the £350?!?!?!
Motorsport World quoted me £440 for a full stainless steath system with sports cat, and they charge £300 for a cat back stealth so were talking £140 for the sports cat alone?
ive tried loads of different inductionk its inc K&N, PiperX, universal ones etc and none sounded loud like my airbox, they gave it a slightly deeper noise which i thought was good at the time but now i cant even hear them if i try them again lol
im using the standard 259mm disks same as you al with a set of green stuff pads and they never fade, infact once they get up to temperature they bite twice as hard lol
really need to change my fluid too tho!
pads are really good im using them, my mate usually refers to EBC disks as "chocolate disks" tho lol so id avoid them.
im using standard 259mm disks and green stuff pads and they dont have stop when they get a bit of heat in them
Re: Cliosport Calender 2007
is there any chance there will be a non RenaultSport and a RenaultSport calender? i think that would be a good idea, as theres more chance of us non RenaultSport guys getting in it!!
the rear is no problem, ideally for the front you want the wings and side skirts as they all match up.
a good body shop should be able to fit the 172/182 front bumper with your standard wings and no side skirts but it still wont look perfect.
no point in putting bumpers on and not the skirts...
thinking of getting FK's for the 1.2, just wondering how low i can go on 15s without removing the arch liners (removed one before and my headlight got covered in water and kept clouding up!
i know freds is lowered 110mm+ how was this done, id be happy with -80mm tho to be honest
EDIT: also...
open the glove box and you can get ur fingers under it to pull it off, dont worry it wont snap off lol, passengers side if you have small fingers pull at it, if not as john said cloth and a screwdriver
i get it on the 1.2 cleared it a bit when i changed the gearbox mount but then 3 weeks later it was back, bushes arnt up to much in these mounts to be honest, trying the k-tec uprated ones this month to see how it goes
just get an off the shelf one that you like, id avoid peco tho, most custom places will do you a backbox with tailpipe of your choice for about £150 -£170 ish or £250-£300 for a cat-back
k-tec cat back exhausts are listed to fit 1.2 and 1.2 16v (along with many others) so i would think they are all the same or as edde says, similar and it should fit
not going to win but its an attempt! (keeping in mind the car went thru the carwash for 3yrs/120k miles!!) only been the last year that its been looked after properly, got a PC coming for it soon tho :D
so ideally id want 5mm all round?
where would i get some decent hubcentrial ones made up, and what does hubcentrial mean (sorry if its a stupid question lol)
also where would i get longer wheel bolts?
would want to do it properly, dont want the wheel falling of when im hammering it lol
so how much we looking at for 2 wheel spacers with 8 longer bolts?
is a wheel spacer a wheel spacer or do you need one for a clio?
cheers
i hate the way the standard dynamique wheels sit quite far in the arches on the rear of the clio, so im looking for some spacers for the rear to bring them out a bit, so need a bit of advice since im new to the idea.
do i need longer wheel bolts? if so where from?
any disadvantages?
and...
