well fitting a cold air feed helps but theres still far to much hot air, the problem starts especially when your sitting at a junction or traffic lights so all the hot air under the bonnet is just collecting and then when you try to pull away you have hardly any power lol

put it on allys roof rack :rasp:

last time i was in Arnold Clark they had delivery millage pre registered dynamiques for £6,000 which is twice as good as a cheap ass campus. atleast get a campus sport which is basically an extreme 4, the normal campus is a 1.2 8v which are slower than slow! (i know a couple of people who have...

yep its some sort of switch on the brake pedal, the guys who fitted my mums dual controls managed to make the brakelights do this on the 1.2 16v learner car. took it into renault and they sorted it in 2 minz! someone on here will know how to do it though if you dont already.

lol i know a guy about here who has a 1.0 new shape corsa which apparently (and i quote) "eats Corsa SXI 1.2 16v's for breakfast" i couldnt be bothered arguing so just put on a surprized face and said cool and told him how ive been a lot faster than some of them too. my mate who was with me...

glad my video pleased someone :) welcome to cliosport boxxy! depends how far you want to go for mods you can get a pannel filter for £30 or so which is just a better quality free'er flowing replacement for the airfilter, lets the engine breath better or you can go for an induction kit which...

after watching bmh.01's video ive kinda went off the idea, its not *that* much faster where its worth the money, going to fix the headgasket and rocker cover gasket on the 1.2 and hold of untill i can insure a 2.0 16v conversion

i like stripes, black bumper etc only one bit im not to sure on is the front light eyebrow things but once again im just not sure on them cant decide if i like them or not.

does look a bit faster but nothing majour, its the extra torque im looking for also just found out today that theres a possibility that ive got a fuked head gasket AND rocker cover gasket :( think im going to buy a 1.6 16v do a bit of work to it, run the 1.2 into the ground then do the conversion.

is that a MK2 Ph1 front bumper? i didnt notice that at first, that suits it, actually looks good black! seems to pull well in that acceleration video!

if you need a new engine and were putting all that effort into fitting it then why not make it worth while and do somthing different? Oliver_K4M, thanks for all your help, in your opinion what engine is the better one to go for, Mechanical throttle w/o VVT (with F4R throttle body) or electric...

as said above if it has onboard VGA then remove the AGP/PCI graphics card and give the onboard a go as it could be eather a conflict or you might just need to dissable the onboard VGA

pmsl sounds like my mate whos 1.0 corsa apparently eats 16v SXI's and 16v clios, but yet he never wants to go a wee thrash when ive got my car with me :D

hmm well after watching some speedo videos and compairing them to mine i found a 1.6 16v to pull from 4mph to 60mph in EXACTLY the same time to my slightly modded 1.2 16v :S doesnt seem so good anymore, suppose numbers arnt everything!!

see problem is, mine is an expression model which as far as i know didnt come in a 1.6 16v only a 1.4 16v. i can afford to insure a 1.6 16v clio no problem, so thats all i would tell the insurance company it was? (once the dvla records were sorted) also i know its only a 35bhp difference but...

Im looking at buying a Renault K4M 1.6 16v engine pretty soon for a conversion and just looking for some info on them. ive never done a conversion before so its all new to me but im really willing to learn and don’t mind getting my hands dirty also got plenty mates who have done conversions...

looked good mate!

needed another wash after that drive we went yesterday lol, tosser trying to race me in an estate car, thought i was a dead man lol

hes got it stripped iirc

you polished your full exhaust, even rich doesnt do that ;)

me - "want to follow me to my house and ill get that airfilter" binns - "2 secs need to give it a bit of quick detailer" when your doing that parked on the path outside halfords u know you have a problem ;) only kiddin mate lol

looking awesome mate, couldnt beleive how shiney it looked in the flesh today, u see the colour of allys black clio lol hes not a fan of washing his cars!! nice induction kit ;) thats it on its 4th owner now i think (Fred, Subway, Me now you!) EDIT: was pissing myself at your gangster lean...

just when we thought it couldnt get any cleaner!!! nice work gilles

as said arch liners r for girls lol my tyres eat arch liners for breakfast

blue 182 in falkirk retail park, cup pack wheels, lowered with CS sticker on the front bumper. think it was tinted cant remember tho!

my mums one started to peel off so i just pulled it and it came off leaving no marks?

guy on here has one, fast but hes scared of blowing the gearbox so dont think he uses it to its full...

yep someone asked and apparently its not possible but suppose anything is possible if you have enough time and money. oliver have you ever came up against any 172's or other bigger engine cars? how did you do? just wondering as i fancy the conversion myself to the 1.2 16v

none of them id spend the £3,900 that its going to cost you for one years insurance on a 1.2 16v and get the mods i said above.
