I'd bet thats potentially bent, I bent a wishbone and it bent the subframe in my old 1.6. Still tracked and drove straight but the passenger front wheel always sat further back in the arch compared to before. If the subframe doesn't look obviously bent then it might be ok but mine didn't either...

Full the fuse out the fan if its continously on or it'll kill it eventually.

Maxogen or Ph1 airbox end of imo. Nothing else will make a difference, BMC CDA could be considered I guess for the money.

Tis an Alpine APF-D102RE, for the update list canbus display/steering controls. Dead hard to get hold of but so well polished with an alpine headunit that supports the red version of vehicle display interface.

And now courtesy of RStuning :D Not a bad figure at all managed the highest out of the 7 that went today with the meganesport group buy anyway so i'm all happy :D. Has highlighted the fact that I am in serious need of new injectors (common fault) as the power tails off after 5k as it runs...

90nm/66ft lb for the Clio and most other cars some are 110nm though.

You've done well there! ESP/ABS could be the brake pedal switch if it goes away when you start up and then comes on when you brake. Airbag possibly wires under the seats? Emissions because its had some stick may go off over time. Other than that you need the codes reading.

They do tend to make slightly better power as far as i'm aware. Its like anything though, you get good ones you get bad ones.

Losses vary depending on the transmission setup, 4wd has very high transmission losses comparitively. Would imagine FWD would be the most effiecient then RWD then AWD, as you have less pieces in the chain where losses can occur.

A Ph2 doesn't have a speedo drive in the gearbox its done from the ABS speed pulse.

Plug wise you want NGK PFR6E-10 and nothing else, you won't get them much cheaper than this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/PFR6E-10-NGK-SPARK-PLUGS-NGK-WHOLESALE-PRICES-3688_W0QQitemZ270172081697QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item270172081697&_trkparms=72%3A984|39%3A1|66%3A2|65%3A12|240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14...

PFR6E-10 ;)

No he hasn't the 840 will work, which connector loom have you got? 843 or 844? If its the exact same one in the ebay auction it should work fine.

Yes the price is a joke unfortuantely, its the only one you'll see a gain on though. Another option is to go for a Ph1 airbox.

Maxogen if you can stretch it to. Will chuck some pics up in a minute.

Rev limiter wise I still wouldn't take it over 7k regularly.

Couldn't say anything until they at least find out what the fault code is, may be something much deeper than that.

You'd be surprised they've done far worse lol, basically unless your going for mega power you go for what you want. Most aftermarket systems are 2.5" I believe, i've heard a 2.25" Janspeed and its hardly any louder than standard.

Hmm doubt its that then, your going to have to find out whats causing the OBD light to come on.

Go to rstuning, they are A1. Not even worth considering anyone else.

Unless your mega tuned clio wise its all much of a muchness as you'll not be a big gain from either, 2.25" is too quiet imo but its horses for courses. Also I wouldn't say you can just stick a horsepower figure on an exhaust size as i'd think its all down to the engine that the exhaust is...

Erm thats what you have to do when spraying metalic paints with laquer like that. The process (afaik) is primer then paint then 1500 grit wet and dry to a matt finish then laquer. Then wet and dry the laquer to a matt finish and then cut it back up with polish.

Good rep but as always something just doesn't "look" right about it, just doesn't look like the real thing.

All the same.

Bloody hell you've broken this one too :rasp:, does it feel like a flatspot? Will it rev through it if you keep your foot in? Has told me about a similar thing with his 182 around that rev range, my 172 never used to do it though.

I personally couldn't put up with a 197 Poverty myself. I see the idea behind it but not for me.

Thats OBD fault light so yes, is the electric fault warning light on in the middle of the dials? If it isn't it might not be the loom as they tends to come on with it.

Lowering helps a lot with the high speed stability I always found, even just a set of prolines which hardly drop anything made it much better. Can really appreciate what people mean now i've got the meggy though, will pull 130 buttons no bother an feels much more planted doing it.
