rofl, I've only had it 18 months I spose, not that long ;)

correct, no seperate tps and no iscv as such either. as you say the throttle itself modulates to give a stable idle (also that's how the cruise control works)

i would never of guessed she was called Debbie.................. :rasp:

you still checking the clio forums.................means heading back ;) myself, I've never left, I've always had at least one clio since I passed my test in 2001, currently I have 5 and nothing else!lol!

mmm, seems to be about the only thing available, they do a 8.4kw one as well but its a beast at 3kg may have to get a nosey at your at some point mate, noise isn't an issue cars loud as hell anyway, just effectiveness

which one have you got chip, I was looking at this one http://www.t7design.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=65&products_id=180&zenid=a6dd32930251c94b650cc5da45c0a508 but wasn't sure how well they actually perform and what your saying isn't encouraging standard box is a no go for...

it runs is all I know and believe its in for mapping

saw this car today, she works at the County Transport Highways Lab near me I suspect

cheers folks :) not bad for daily hacks!

surely they just lock up the wheels all the time, deft touch on the pedal required :)

you want offset (ET) of between 43 and 36 odd ideally to be issue free PCD is stud pattern which is 4x100 for all 4 stud Renault hubs centre bore is 60.1mm, so look for same or larger (can use spigots to bring bore down easily, but have to machine smaller bore wheels up to fit, PITA)

Wheels scrubbed up lovely chap, glad I wasn't on the list of let downs :)

interesting I may have a slightly bigger set of hurdles is all as my '172' track car is actually the b*****d child of a phase 1 172 shoehorned into a mk1 shell. so fitment could be a bit of a swine.

I can see that POV, however ime its been based in fear over experience. I've never used anything but used wheels and provided you check them over first, ring them for cracks and then fit tyres and balance there is no reason to fear

is everyone failing to read this thread? he likes clios, he wants to enjoy the building process so he should go and buy an mx5?

snap, how did I miss this! looks great whats the pms shifter kit like? I hear they are a ball ache to setup? worth it? work nicely, feel good? (happy happy fun fun time, 5 dolla)

the silver are more as they all come out the production line black and then have to be painted silver over the top of the black coating iirc personally I wouldn't buy new, absolutely no point at all, just trawl the classified for some second hand pro race ( I sold a set of pro race 1's for 180...

I think the point the OP is making though is he will enjoy the challenge and process of actually building the thing too. I'm of a similar mind set, its not all about the actual end result of being on track. lots of fun is in the speccing, modifying, changing, building, revising, improving and...

Myself and Mark were up at Cratcliffe Tor for some bouldering yesterday. Pulled up nose to nose and thought may as well take a couple of quick snaps on the camera phone RB - Sportlines, Cup Turinis with T1R's, 15mm front, 10mm rear spacers wth TPi bolts and RS192 P1 - Sportlines, Willy...

you live in Nottingham, you do live that life ;)

all about the Racing Blue imo.....totally non bias opinion of course...........ahem

I couldn't give a crap what people think, feck them all imo :)

why the hell would I want to do that? Sunday's a day of rest, a mans home is his castle and sundays I adhere to that like glue theres also the usual sticking point of the large volumes of beer I tend to drink on sunday afternoons ;) lol!

I can never make that as it starts at something silly like 7pm, I'm settled into Sunday night in an roast dinner by that time

naff off back to vegas and bankrupt yourself, it was lovely and quiet round here recently ;)

flattery will get you nowhere Dave, you've tried it once and I told you not to try it again :rasp:

feck knows mate, I wasn't looking, they all look the same to me ;) if it wasn't a E55 AMG with S/C conversion, I'm literally not interested :rasp:

oh god you've bought another German barge?

best way to avoid this issue is just start spending, then make this thread afterwards with a shocked and dismayed look on your face about how much....and heres the no going back crux.......MORE you've still got to spend now you're half way done that's how I roll hence the missus tries to...
