    Looking at a Clio 200 Cup today

    your not going to get a set number of miles from the fuel light it depends how you drive it, in a 172 for example ive done 40 miles on the light and also ran out of fuel after 12 miles before!

    Cooksports fitted, now tyres rubbing on arch liners.

    Hybrid 172/200 engine

    that sounds exactly like what I want! and I can have the standard ecu mapped to run the 197/200 cams however the dephaser will either be active or not rather than continuous as per the 197/200 is that right?

    Hybrid 172/200 engine

    thanks for the input so far guys. awesome conversion that turbo one basically all I want is something that pulls and revs like the 7800rpm, smooth 200 engine, but in a mk2 shell, on standard management so it drives like it left the factory.

    Hybrid 172/200 engine

    Not just the vvt setup just generally the smooth high reving nature of the engine which im not sure an rs2 would give me although an awesome torque spread and same or more power

    Hybrid 172/200 engine

    I miss the smooth high reving F4R in my 200 and fancy a project, I was looking at turbo charging but yet to find someone who has a reliable one from reading about, I know fitting the 200 engine to the 172 isn't an easy task due to different gearboxes but what about building a hybrid? would I be...

    New Boy from Scotland

    noisey pully will most likely be the dephaser, youtube it and see if it sounds the same

    The perfect fast road set up for a clio 1*2??

    because Renault spend a considerable amount developing the bushes for the car, and when new the cars drive brilliantly so that's how I wanted it to drive :)

    no news on a software update or something for the gearbox to improve its shift response to the padals?

    CLIO IV RS - Trophy from page 111

    looks like a good runabout, I prefer small turbo petrols to diesels, I don't do massive miles anyway, I wouldn't pay anything near that for one. im sure when I bought my GT DCi mk3 with every option bar sat nav ticked it cost me just under £15k, this is 5k more expensive!!

    Paint peeling - Renault won't sort it....

    my 200 had started to do this very slightly not as bad as yours, i had it from new until it was 10 months old, there was various other paint defects such as runs on the bottom of the passengers wing etc. i had enough bother with it mechanically to even attempt to get the paint work sorted, hence...
