mine gets messy when i total it all up, never counted it all fully but heres a quick one for the last 6yrs... 1.2 16v £1500 ph2 172 £7800 DCi65 £1800 DCi 100 £3800 ph1 172 £2500 GT DCi £14700 total on clios £ £32,100 thats just the cost of buying, id say ive spent at a guess £10k on mods and...

any 172 preferably a ph1, 182s are a nightmare exhausts never sit properly lol ph1 172s are fast.

when was the last time it had an air filter change/clean?

best setup for the cars from a handling point of view is koni adjustables and eibach sportlines. they cost about the same if not more than cheap coilovers but ive never tried cheap coilovers cant imagine them being as good from a performance point of view though. i was running sportlines on...

yeah full car, engine out, bay done the lot!

my dci 100 was fine cornering at tripple figures in the wet with T1-R's lol

my black 80k W plate has it, quite bad! going in to get a respray soon though mine have got really bad in a short time.

mine was still going strong at 150 odd so you have loads left!

RIP, sad to hear. what else is also sad is to look through all the posts and realize everyone was just happy the guy had walked away, no one was arsey, no one told him he got what he deserved for driving too quick, no one making their own judgement on the crash without being there. totally...

isnt the twingo RS wheel the same as a poverty spec Twingo and the same size as a Clio 2? id be going Clio 3 wheel

i used to really rate t1-rs on my dci 100 and use them on my mrs 1.6 16v however they wear far far too fast my derv was going thru them in 8k and that was a LOT of motorway miles, i funny enough rated them in the wet unlike most. camskill are doing PE2's for £60 a corner at the moment ive just...

1/4 mile runs not for me, never tried one in it

as ive said before i lost nothing, would still hit the limiter in 5th gear, and i gained a nice mid range. im on the look out for another for my ph1!

dyno graphs dont mean s**t, my opinion since i had one does highest powered sottish 2.0 clio on standard inlet!! that was on standard cams and map too!!

no joke ive saw 4 bug eye STi imprezas on fire in the last 3 years

ive just got my dci back from the dealers after it lit up the motorway with sparks from the exhaust like a firework!

ive owned a 1.2 16v, DCi65, DCi 100 currently have a 1.6 16v and 172. 1.2 16vs are terrible on fuel, horribly slow to drive DCi65 is a much better alterniative, just as slow but never feels it due to a nice low down punch (think of how a 1.2 shifts with 5.5k gearchanges, thats what a dci is...

tape will be fine if its sealed its hardly sucking 21psi through it!

got to disagree i got a nice gain on mine, granted the decat possibly done that but 15lb/ft mid range and 10lb/ft peak torque. never dropped anything top end either as you would usually expect with a 4-2-1. ive always told people its a decent gain, hard going to change it but worth it if you...

ive had a few stick before but never had an issue a sharp impact and they come off, but these were seriously seriously tight i think someones put them on with an impact gun and then never changed the discs in years!

im game for this, dunno what ride im brining though. need to wait to see closer to the time, and mainly if the shed can pass an mot haha

only stuff that was done to mine was pannel filter and a decent remap. had i kept it i would have removed the EGR valve and decatted it and fitted a larger intercooler, thats about all, however the clutch is only good for 185-190lbft and will start to slip, black diamond now do uprated ones...

yeah gt 106, i usually just take it pretty easy but went for it lastnight because it was quiet just to see what it would top out at and was going for it for a good few minutes, a google search does confirm of a load of diesels doing this any time people are sitting flat out for a few minutes...

just as well need all the bhp you can get ;)

bit off topic, but my post above about the carbon build up burning off, you had much dealings with it? ive googled it but its mostly high millage cars that are suffering from it, however ive never had it flat out for such a long time as i did lastnight, but funny enough that weird lag problem...

endless posts like this are driving this place into the ground. belts are cheap on these dont need any special tools, they are cheap as chips to do, even a garage will only charge about £100!

wonder where that came from hehe ;)

turns out it was a build up of carbon in the exhaust system burning out @ 125mph and causing a fire work show out the exhaust all over the motorway

waterpump, should always be changed at cambelt time on these engines, as i found out, i had one fail on me and toast an engine!
