    toyo question?

    he says his car doesnt really come out in the wet anyway, and to be honest even cheapo tyres are ok in the wet if your sticking to speedlimits and not hammering into corners (or so ive found on my mums car anyway)

    Nice 182 powered Dynamique

    looks like standard front brakes? or is that just the 17s giving that impression?

    Where to buy 172/182 Front Grill ???

    even although they dont sell the Clio sport over there, they should still be able to order the parts i would have thought?
  15. Martin_172

    yours is a phase 3 (2004>) car with revised front end (grill and bumper)

    how hard to u push ur 1.2

    lol i know, bit of a legend of a car to be honest! still going strong
  19. Martin_172

    how hard to u push ur 1.2

    yep but if you read i said mine keeps pulling into 6,000rpm where my mums standard one doesnt and the power drops off about 5,800rpm. with 122,000 miles the engines really loose and the airbox/filter lets it breath nice and freely!

    1.2 16v MPG

    been driving my mums dynamique tonight since my brakes are fuked (Changing them tomorrow) and was playing with the trip computer (mine doesnt have one) now i know these arnt the most accurate thing in the world but i was amazed at it. i managed to get it to 17.5mpg when hammering it BUT then...
  21. Martin_172

    how hard to u push ur 1.2

    depends what mood im in, if im just driving normally then usually change about 3,500rpm, dont take it over 3,000rpm for the first 15 mins if im on the dual c/way then usually about 5,000rpm if im really going for it if someones up my arse or on a backroad then its usually 6,200, which is...

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    tell me how this is a different kettle of fish when it comes to modifiing them then, you still get crap gains when it comes to BHB per £ and cheers to all the guys (seems to be the non RS owners!) who actually have something decent to say and who are sticking up for me!!

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    im on a tight budget and to be honest a clio is bad enough after 100mph i dont think its strong enough to hold up at the speed of light

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    to be honest neather does a RR unless its a before and after on the same RR with same air temp etc as im sure you know. i was bored thought id make a video, video didnt turn out as great as i thought but i thought id post it anyway.

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    i think you must be getting confused its not a superduper megaflow its a super megaflow, im assuming you dont know what it is since your having a laugh at it? i cant see what benefit having a flux capacitor on a car would have performance wise?
  29. Martin_172

    1.2 16v 0-80mph video

    i cant see how its a different kettle of fish? why spend thousands on a 180bhp car to get it to not much over 200bhp when spend that on somthing that was designed to be fast such as an evo and you get a massive power boost? its the same idea as why i mod a 1.2 because the car was cheap, its...
