Well yeah, think about it, if your pushing the rears out more than the front it'll feel strange on turn in imo..... Rear wheel drive cars have a wider track on the back, be it wider axle or wider wheels (think BMW M3 etc) FWD cars are generally similar front and rear. If Your going to use...

Just get some 30mm springs then imo. Dont need coilovers unless your going looow ;) http://www.k-tecracing.com/show_product.asp?id=2469 ^Should be fine on your current shocks, but is always nice to maybe just get some standard new Renault shocks. I did that with the gf's Saxo, lowered 30mm...

yeah there will be no problems as such, but the ride will be crashy as f**k tbh, which defeats the object!!! The extra strain/pressure on the dampers majorly f***s up their life also.....

I'd say around 30mm from my experience, anything more and you'd need uprated ones imo :)

Knows :approve:

Naaah needs to be sleaved then, which usually means a blow lol!

I'd be f**king livid if I was a Honda fan tbh. Thats like us having the 197 over here, and France getting a 197 with a Meggy lump........ Its what the car should have been from launch....

No s**t?! ;)

I certainly wound not be running different spacers front and rear, that'll proper screw the handling imo........ Keep them the same.

The problem was what you said, the sun baked the water on. If that happens again, just re wash the car if need be, problem solved :)

There was a set on ebay a while back, so just keep an eye out!!!

get a set of Ph1 oz's. Can be picked up for 100 notes or so. Have a go at a refurb yourself, job done.

its what they are made for lol!! Dont need QD or anything. Just make sure its a good microfibre one :)

Just use a good drying towel/chamois!!

Needs good slam ;)

It might have to be blended into the door somewhat, dont think just the wing can be painted, it may stand out and not match? £200 ish?

nooo dont worry, they love having a good wringing tbh!!! 3rd gear is best ;)

Noooooo its fine!!!!! Some people are too paronoid on here, tbh i wonder how some peeps actually get out the house on their own :clown:

I've had no problems, mechanical sympathy is the key imo ;) Probably done about 100k in different Clios!

I've had Renaultsport Clios since 2004 (172 Cup, 182 and now 197)and they always get taken way past 5 k once warm. Then engine is the strongest bit tbh, very rare you hear of an engine failure

Seriously it'll need paint that. General rule of thumb....... if you can feel the scratch with your nail, it cant really be polished outwith a machine. It might be improved on slightly but thats it. Yours is far too deep imo, looking at yours its down to the primer!!! I have a PC so have some...

Cup FTW!!!!

indeedy ;)

:star: for you chap!!! I see it getting asked a lot on here tbh!!!! They all make the car look the same.

You think?....... :rasp:

LOL but any coilovers can be set to that height ;) Thats the idea.

Hmmmm not sure i agree with that at all!!! Yes its the same shell, but the track is much wider on the 197. According to the hand book i have, a standard 2.0 clio has a track of 1,472m front, 1,450m rear. RS is 1,520m front and rear. The front end has the double axis suspension from the Meg 225...

Wouldn't have one with the Silver alloys, be with my forthcoming Black set....

how do you know?

Police drive Cups now do they?!
