still no one bought one of these yet? lol

actually it is, in my experience its only once you get up near triple figures the Clio starts to pull away in any significant way, under that your just creeping away!

holy s**t mind that!! that was years ago!

bloddy clio 200 flat spots!! (lol thinking of the last thread I accused someone of cutting me up!!!)

im only cumin if its a fast driving meet, pics and talking about waxing is boring, flat out with go-pro's on!

I was going to take the twingo until someone reversed into it at work :(

the dci 88 eco models have the shift light on them it comes on and tells you when to shift for economy. dci106 doesn't have it

never thought about that actually!

I think ph2 172 wheels are the coolest wheels Renault ever made! always liked them, and I bet they will look brilliant on the trophy! I also like the mk1 wheels looks very fresh!

this was my old one when I was 17!! full stripped out with a custom airbox I made and I made an HKS panel filter for it lol!!! had 140k on the clock and was RR at 83bhp!

goes as MWright said above. To change just remove the top damper nut and jack the car up until the damper comes through the bottom of the body, change the under side bush it just slides on the same way the standard one is removed, and then lower the car and fit the top bush again the same way...

ill be there in my Gheydini and my mate is coming in my old Flamer 172

remap 100% worth it!

mechanics courses generally isn't where your going to learn about increasing the performance of a car! DCI clios sound terrible with open filters on them, I tried one on my mapped dci 100 out of curiosity and it sounded rubbish, every time I lifted off the throttle it made a deep tractor like...

if I was going down the K03 route id just run around the 160-170bhp mark with a good oil cooler, good quality fluids and get someone who knows what they are doing to map it, I don't know for definite but the rods are fine at 150bhp, id take my chances at 170 and see how it goes! gearbox might...

loads of effort to do the engine conversion, not so much to go down the K03 route, however gearbox and clutch will be an issue. personally id rather keep the smaller lighter engine or sell up completely and buy another car, if you were going to the length of fitting an F4RT you are better...

R888's all round and big balls!!!

mine would step out if I wanted it to step out but never when I didn't expect it, the one time it started stepping out when I wasn't expecting it I had a burst rear damper, replaced them both and it was back to only doing it when I wanted!! they don't go sideways as easy as a 197/200 though!

used to rattle like s**t! was the one thing I made sure my new one didn't have!

172 injectors and an rs tuning remap will give you in the region of 145bhp 150lbft of torque, brakes are more than upto the job, GT has quicker steering, re tuned dampers and stiffer springs so handles extremely well, although a set of coilovers do transform it.

50kg less weight, 20bhp less, 10lb/ft more torque and from 2000rpm, short ratio box geared to 125mph, on the road theres nothing in it, the exact same reason theres nothing in it between a mildly breathed on 106gti/saxo vts in the real world same connector mate just a straight swap

I get easily bored, ive always fancied a flamer, so I bought one, got it to the spec I wanted it, box ticked, sold on! this drives better, is better on fuel, more toys, comfier, quieter, under warranty, cheaper to service/tax/insure, doesn't rattle and with £400 is just as fast.

probably more than that!

was up at the scrapies and found a clio 3 so got the interior light as its a bit brighter with 3 bulbs rather than 1! Clio3... standard..

my mate turned up in my old one today for a chin wag, since I sold it its had a front mount intercooler and K-Tec cat back fitted, the exhaust sounds awesome, driving about town its properly quiet you can hardly hear it unless you tickle the snail, on boost it sounds brilliant though you can...

inner track rods, rod ends, extra castor bottom arms, cup dampers, eibach springs mintex pads, brembo hc discs, braided lines, fresh fluid rs tuner remap done!

haha, na im in Scotland still, I just nip to Germany for my top speed runs!

not sure if my street looking like Germany is a good thing or not lol!

I had a 172 that wasn't a money pit, when it was 3yrs old!!!

this is a massive upgrade! 172's were great back in the day but these days they are passed it.
