amazing how much grip they have! on 3 wheels more than they are on 4!

erm the campus sports are 16v, yours has the 1.2 badges showing it would be an 8v, it has no dynamique spoiler or fog lights and as you said comes with no colour coded bumpers and bump strips... not being picky or that just giving the guy an idea of what he'll get!

im on the apex kit tho not the standard? so should be fine? will mostly be my mate doing its a learning experiance for me lol!

ive got a tape player u could get a shot of if you need it man MSN me if you need it

looked into tv tuners before and the signal was shite, seen the new Pioneer Digital Freeview box tho and its prefect quality with no ariel!

could be 40w but im sure it was 50w what dissadvantages does it have?

conversion would have no labour costs since i would be doing it myself with the help of mates, only thing i would have to payfor would be parts. brakes are fine, rear disks arn't needed but would probably be done at a later date, suspension fits im sure? chassis is fine, probably slightly...

I use Duckhams 5w50 fully synthetic with genuine renault oil filters seems good enough for the price, i try to change it roughly every 4-5k because of the abuse it gets. ive got basic advice on oil but from what i understand you want fully synthetic, and some cheap fully synthetic oil isnt...

yep a 172 lump is better but i cant afford it on insurance. and if i sold mine i would need another £4,000 or so for a good 1.6 16v, its not going to cost me anywhere near that much for the converison.

not much more hastle or money for a 1.6 16v conversion, and its a bit faster than what ive got, need to get insurance quotes before i do anything though

cant afford 172 insurance and 1.2 is at 122,000 miles and ill have done about 140,000 this time next year if i keep doing the same miles im doing now, just dont fancy putting all the work into an engine conversion for another 1.2 16v lump because it wouldnt give me anything to look forward to...

i knew the replys this guy was going to get as soon as i saw the thread title, typical! :rolleyes: what you want to do first mate is sort your suspension, brakes and lose weight. not sure if your talking about a MK1 or MK2 clio here but ill assume its a MK2... Coilover suspension (or if...

that was there last time i was up, couldnt decide if it was a ph1 or ph2, ph2 front end, ph1 dash and boot lol

its not VVT-i its just VVT

sorry to hear that mate, stealth system is what your looking for if you want somthing standard looking.

will get one tomorrow now that i finally have brakes to stop the car lol

but thats my point i cant afford to buy a 1.4 or 1.6

pmsl

he says his car doesnt really come out in the wet anyway, and to be honest even cheapo tyres are ok in the wet if your sticking to speedlimits and not hammering into corners (or so ive found on my mums car anyway)

thats mental with the cage and total stripped! good work

you havn't said how much you want to spend but, i usually stick to pioneer so recommend anything pioneer, especially the high end units, ive got a DEH-P8600MP which is nice :)

looks like standard front brakes? or is that just the 17s giving that impression?

LOL had the back seats out so been driving about like a nutter most of the time, usually only use £45 a week or so

even although they dont sell the Clio sport over there, they should still be able to order the parts i would have thought?

yours is a phase 3 (2004>) car with revised front end (grill and bumper)

lol ive put £80 of petrol in mine in the last 5 days and i only use it for driving about, my works only 2 minz away so not like i have a long drive to work!

arnold clark :clown: na mate no specialists as far as i know

lol i know, bit of a legend of a car to be honest! still going strong

yep but if you read i said mine keeps pulling into 6,000rpm where my mums standard one doesnt and the power drops off about 5,800rpm. with 122,000 miles the engines really loose and the airbox/filter lets it breath nice and freely!

been driving my mums dynamique tonight since my brakes are fuked (Changing them tomorrow) and was playing with the trip computer (mine doesnt have one) now i know these arnt the most accurate thing in the world but i was amazed at it. i managed to get it to 17.5mpg when hammering it BUT then...
