    Lowering an RT

    Lowering an RT

    steelys are cool man, i was gonna get 15" weller steelys and wrap them in sticky cut slicks, because there lighter than alloys!!!and look dead cool on a stripped out racer!

    Lowering an RT

    no,lower it first as itll be really slammed on standard rims, and will look cool in a kooky kind of way. and youll apreciate the better handling.

    Lowering an RT

    you can ket a full kit for cheap. I initially used monroe gas dampers with -55mm pi springs, and they were fab, just as good as the konis i got now. probably get away with the whole kit for 200 quid

    Exterior Temp Indicator gone mad!!

    what size wheels

    i think if you go for pure looks then the league badits in anthracite (spelling?) would look mega! or 15s for best handling

    Turbos...

    looked at it, the rt engine and 5 gtt is totally diferent. You will need a new, well used gtt engine then slap that in along with the loom, new moutns, box etc!

    172 - lowering

    yeah, they are real good. But if you ant the absolute best,then H&R is your brand.They are the best!!! but there are others who specialise in making stuf for renault whic is just as good, almost. Or there os Leda, which is top notch racing equipment!! leda if you want the most exclusive, best...

    172 - lowering

    yeah linton, ill have alook.But what about other brands. i saw that avo coilovers are only 500 or something for the clio 16V. so whouldnt be much more i think. I will check bilstein and other ok

    make it faster

    yeah, it had the cossie turbo lump and running gear, f***in hard work though.

    Engine Drop

    would be a b*****d to fit!!!!! exhasut headers on a 172 are much larger, and the VVT would require the entire wirering loom, ecu, and the drive shafts/gearbox will need to be the 172 ones too...hard work, put it in theback, its easier. just cut the front off a 172, including turrets and...

    Relocating 16V Induction Kit

    from demon tweeks you can get bake cooling ducts which you can use in place of the fog lights, and pipe them right up to an airbox which goes around the throttle body... or you could use the standar airbox, mod it to fit only one cool air pipe which goes to the coling duct......simple. Or you...

    172 - lowering

    jeeseey creeseey!! sorry to say it linton but apex are a bit of a budget brand over here, are you sure you didnt get ripped off. If you want i can get some cool konis or bilstiens or avo coilovers then bring them back this summer? and probably for the same price

    Do lowering your car affect.....

    yeah, i got my letter published in CCC this month on the very same subject. But on a road car,lowering wont make much of a difference, because the isnt any advanced aerodynamics on the rest of the car. But your right about the rear of the hatch. Hatches are actually more aerodynamic than most...

    Darren!

    sorrym, but have you got any info on the speakers i was talking to you about in the other forum? Cheers

    wow linton!!!!! your springs cost you $3500!!!! are you mad!!!!

    Prima v Magnex exhausts.

    no, the side exit is just for me, but the clio system will exit out the back like normal. But the advantge is the manrel bends they use. It speeds up exhaust gas round the inside of bends in the exhaust system, resulting in less back pressure and a freeer (?) flowing exhaust.

    172 - lowering

    prima are rebadged Pi springs, eibach are good but progressively wound, dont get apex as their budget. Ket either bilstei or H&R. H&R are the best wuality in the world, and they supply porsche etc. Def H&R

    Little tweaks or mods

    ramair have had the best results as they supply the german DTM cars with filters. and they run hooge V8s get a ram air panel filter, and the eibachs and a cat pipe....sorted!

    Exhaust flames

    Weber Alpha Performance Kit for 16v & Williams

    is torque quite bad because at low revs the air speed is low and the bore of the t/bodies are quite large?
  24. BenR

    Prima v Magnex exhausts.

    if you wait for just a short while, k-tec racing are developing a very good system. I am getting a side exit zorst off them, real noisy! but the goo part is they are stainless and are mandrel bent which is better than what any other manufaturer use.

    Little tweaks or mods

    you could do the panel filter, remove cat, yea nitro, lower it by a slight amount as they wont notice. All can be taken out quick..i.e. a day for all

    Exhaust flames

    I THINK THY ARE COOL, HINT at potential performance and look mad. But the sparkplug in the backbox, i know this is how they do it, but i thought it would steal energy from your coil, and will the gasses be rich enough to catch fire?

    What alarm

    i dont know anything about alarms, but think i need one, as scum is all around today. I was wondering if anybody could give me an idea on what to get. I would really like a normal alarm without too many feature but still have remote startup. Is this possible.....and how expansive is it going to be?

    Weber Alpha Performance Kit for 16v & Williams

    but headwork and timing cams is an artform. Hill power can, if they do, charge more becasue thay have tons of experience with it. If you went to a random garge the didnt specialise in renaults, they wouldnt know how much to remove and what sort of finish to put in the ports. Hill power knows...

    Weber Alpha Performance Kit for 16v & Williams

    if the carbs are direct to head like the throttle bodies would be, then there should be enough space to run them with no trumpets. You could fashion up an airbox out of fibreglass and got a copy in carbon, then you wouldnt need trumpets and the cold air feed could be attatched. brakes are up...

    larger bore cylinder

    the 1.4 engine is the worlds most simple engine and can benifit from mods big stylee. I shouild be soon buying darrens motor off him and strapping on a full race system w/side exit to cut out the over rear axle bit, and tubular manifold. Darren has got a 1.8 lagina injection sytem on his (the...
