    K-Tec Launch Carbone Lorraine Race Kits

    the 1.8 16v/williams fitment is the same as 1200 16v calipers isnt it? my greenstuff's are needing changed.

    handbrake button?

    theres a little gap on the underside of the button that you can fit a screwdriver up to slide it up the back of the button and then lever it off, easy. mine came off perfect but i still threw it in the bin haha

    are M1 top suspension mounts the same as mk2

    one of my top mounts is fucked and making a funny noise so going to replace both but looking on GSF they only have the Mk1 clio listed, i know they use the same setup as far as im aware so was wondering if they were the same part? also is there anything else worth changing while the coilovers...

    supercharging the Dynamique

    if you read my original post you'll see im buying a 172, but i have my black dynamique sitting doing nothing as well as a supercharger sitting doing nothing and thought and still beleive it can be done cheaply, just not sure on the ecu side of things with these cars..

    new clutch, 52 plate 1.2 16v, how much?

    mine lasted to 115k when it got very stiff and a high biting point. then it started slipping and slipping and then by the time i managed to get a day off to change it, i had lost all drive lol. worth changing the cable at the same time.

    My new clio

    have a look at andys black one with PH1 172 OZ F1 Cup wheels on it on coilovers, F1 Cups suit the MK2 Ph1 cars. if you cant afford coilovers put the -60mm apex kit on it, i loved mine.

    supercharging the Dynamique

    ive got 2 1.2 16v engines actually lol 1 spare 1 fitted, but like i said im not wanting to spend much on this car just thought it would cost maby less than £500 to supercharge it (not inc mapping) just it seems like more hastle than its worth

    supercharging the Dynamique

    so realisticly it would need standalone management? what about going back a step in time and ditching injection for a set of motorbike carbs?! dont want to spent any big ammount of money on this just fancy doing something stupid with the 1.2 engine since its a nice wee car thats lying about...

    supercharging the Dynamique

    actually now that i think of it, this would need a new inlet manifold/throttle body as the standard manifold is shite and then cable throttle to go with it wouldnt it?

    How Long to change a clutch cable

    its easy on a 1.2 16v once uve done it once and get the nack of it! dont fancy trying it on a 172 due to the lack of room,

    new clutch, 52 plate 1.2 16v, how much?

    think the rrp for the clutch from renault is £60+vat fittings the expensive part, its not hard just time consuming and wouldnt bother trying it yourself if you have no or limited mechanical skill/tools.

    supercharging the Dynamique

    managed to "aquire" a supercharger from a Cooper S and was just going to sell it but was thinking of supercharging my dynamique when i get my 172 next month as the dynamiques coming off the road. now as far as im aware i would need the following to make this possible... custom bracket to...

    1.2 16v engine work

    ive got a lightned and ballanced bottom end for mine and a reprofiled cam from my spare engine, just never got the time to fit it n give it a go. i knew it would make hardly any difference but i was bored/curious and had a spare engine and its cost me nothing really lol.

    Quick Question: Whats the difference between expression and dynamique?

    aye deffo, mine is ok in the wet with the Eagle F1s on the 15s but the kumhos on the 16s are dangerous with the hard setup, brakes traction in 2nd gear when you catch a bump under hard acceleration which is VERY scarey for a 1.2

    What suspension setup - Ph-Quick

    never tried the bilsteins, heard a lot of reviews on them (not for the clio but just in general) and all seem to be decent. so standard seems to be the best about? what about standard dampers and eibachs?

    Quick Question: Whats the difference between expression and dynamique?

    depends on the road really, on bumpy roads like a lot of the back roads i prefer our standard dynamique as its more planted,mine bump skips but thats possibly due to the 16s or the fact its too low. on track and smoother more normal roads and especially fast sweeping bends then i prefer mine...

    un-lowered my car, handles better?

    ^you need apex my friend, cant beat it for the cash! wish i hadnt bothered with coilovers for mine, it handles better and looks lower but deffo not worth the extra cash!

    What suspension setup - Ph-Quick

    not touching LEDA after watching the progress of the 172 cup in PGTi like the sounds of the eibach's and Koni Adjustables as i like my adjustable damping on my 1.2, even though i find it hard to get it perfect for every day driving and am always playing with it! but also like the sound of...
