depends how much balls each driver has in bends. keep the 1.2 above 3,500-4000k in the bends and it would have the edge over the extra torque that the dci has to pull out bends. in my opinion i know for a fact mine could go round a twisty track pretty quick but its very well set up and no...

they only sit 10mm lower than standard(think it was 10mm?) tho due to crash safety regulations better with a set of buckets :)

yep that sounds about right. timing belt/cambelt same thing. id just make sure the garage uses a genuine renault cambelt kit

monster truck lol wheels are nice but 2" too big for me!

you cant hear the rattles once you get it over 5k revs anyway lol get a set of coilovers or even a set of eibach springs on it will handle even better

i have a low spec ie no fogs, trip computer, auto lights etc etc but i have wiring for fog lights, does that mean my new fogs will work when wired up and new stalk etc? cheers

a jet engine by the sounds of what happens when it hits 150mph lol

mine didnt feel any different even the 2nd before it happened then there was a loud knock and it felt like the 2 front wheels locked for half a second then it jumped out of gear, i thought what was that, exhaust note doubled and couldnt get it into gear (could feel the engine swinging back and...

i left a cv joint for 2 months before replacing it, but it ate the gearbox before i got round to it, needed the following parts gearbox - £150 2nd hand driveshaft - £100 from renault dogbone mount - £35 (£40 on top of that for polly bushes for it i think i payed) cat - (when mount snapped it...

blip the throttle and it will go in, as for why it does it in first and not any other gear, i dont know just know its the syncro

dogbone mount, mine used to do it coming upto a roundabout near here when i hit a drain not good when your hard on the brakes doing a ton trying to get it down to 70 in time for hte roundabout

its a phase 3 one, ecu is behind the battery. doesnt have the metal cage, mind does untill it fell of one day lol

1.2 16v's got this too? i just assumed mine sounded like a tunnel full of fiestas because of millage lol

my stering got lighter when i went from 195/50/15 to 205/45/16 so possibly

is it a smaller wheel than standard? thats probably why, the steering gets light with the standard bus wheel! what engine is it? 2.0 16v?

^ yep, i like to put a jack under the engine to stop it moving when you take the old one off, makes it easyer to bolt it back in as you dont need to rock the engine to get the bolt to line up, maby thats just me tho (or my car!)

2 bolts, 15 min job

280 miles on average, can get 320 if i try really hard had as low as 240

nailing round the tight curve on the stirling services roundabout at 80mph in the summer and watching the guy in the corsa sport do a 180 spin trying to keep up!

ive got 195/50/15 on standard dynamique wheels down 60mm and if you look at the rear arch liner they do catch, and they catch the rear damper on one side too, dont hear it though so its nothing majour.

its because we have 1.2 16v cups russ, the lightweight, faster models who needs trip computers, auto wipers, auto lights and all that crap?!
