hi, the Dynamiques/172 come with the dials with the red needles and silver surround where the expression/authentique come with the white dials and black surround. what im wondering is, is it possible to swap the surrounds and needles? as ive got a expression with shitty looking dials but just...

is it the k-tec manifold? what you think of it?!

VERY VERY nice!! cant help but think renault made an arse of the front end when they changed the headlamps from black to grey, on black cars anyway. recaros look nice!

am i able to send the inlet to you ben then have it sent back to me (At my cost obviously!) as ive got one of these engines coming my way in feburary. also what sort of cost are we looking at to have a custom manifold made that isnt plastic? im thinking the costs would make it not worth the...

mine burns, well more like spits out and spillsALL of its oil in 1,000 miles lol dont trust the dash computer, mine told me it was full when really it was bellow minimum and nearly killed my engine, very common problem some dont work from day 1

that oliver dude has one on his but never said if it gave him gains or not

if you sell it for 1.5k ill take it lol

100k is nothing, i ragged f**k out my 1.2 and it lastd till 130k untill stuff started going wrong, even at that was only needing water pump (which means cambelt) and a rocker cover gasket. only other things to go were... a driveshaft which took the gearbox with it (my fault for not replacing...

NICE! worth all the blood, sweat and tears then?! this going to be at the feburary meet or will i have to wait till FCS to get a look?!

well done doing something different and not following everyone else but personally dont like them, might look nicer though when cars polished up etc?

cheers for the comments mate, yeah its all about insurance, but not just that, to be fair at 18 i think a 2.0 16v is just too powerfull for me anyway, even although i am fairly sensible and know my limits i still think id push it too far because id likely think it was the fastest thing in the...

guess why that is, because they look good, dont look out of place, suit the car well. atleast get the parts re sprayed!

i prefer my handling on 15s, turns in sharper, sits lower, doesnt tramline as much, just feels much better to drive

yep fitting it myself, to be honest, conversions arnt worth it unless you are doing it yourself, your looking at atleast £1000-£1500 fitting at your average garage. you might find local guys who will do it as a homer for about £500-£700 at weekends.

id put £100 on it being 58mm

sounds like a dodgey shock, do they look ok, no leaking oil etc? how do they feel when you bounce the car up and down?!

i assume carzone make the cheapest kit for the clio since everyone gets it and its the worst looking?! paint match is horrible, grill is horrible, bumper is the worst, skirts look silly. i like the wheels though! and the spoiler. imo youve made a mess of a nice car. on a serious note...

cheers for all the comments guys.. S Garbett, rear bearings were done at 118k, but will have been done before that i assume lol Alan, its 1:30 so i better not txt you but i will tomorrow! im free tuesday! as far as i know anyway R20 CWH, aye should be nice, not doing it to make it rapid...

Standard = :D but if you fancy something else.....

surely it will when its mapped tho?

hi mate yep, handles brilliant, totally solid, you can nail it into roundabouts in the dry at 60-70mph and it stays flat and grips. its got Powerflex bushes, front and rear strut brace, 195/50 Eagle F1s, handles well!! going for FK Konigsport coilovers soon but only so i can get it as low as...

thats lower than my apex 60mm kit or so it looks anyway

can you do that on the plastic inlet manifolds? you can also use 2.0 16v F4R Throttle Body (not the 172/182 engine, its the Laguna/Megane engine)

its getting rebuild, lightned and ballanced bottom end, cams, headwork, full exhaust inc manifold and decat, 2.0 16v F4R throttle body, remap possibly even standalone management

lol

front are 1 month old apex shocks (replaced under warranty), rear are 1 year old apex, all perfect?!

mine is standard engine wise apart from airbox and filer mods which hardly make a difference and has about 80bhp after 130,000 miles of running in lol best way to make them fast is lose weight, and stick loads of miles on it hammering its c**t in. REMEMBER 5,000-8,000 mile oil and filter...

bad idea lol , if most tyre places cant do it properly, imagine renault!

no hastle involved with conversion, will be done in a weekend once all the parts are here exterior is nearly finished just waiting on the carzone bodykit and my 18's coming..... NOT lol getting colourcoded, light tints, xenons and thats it finished exterior wise ICE is all here and fitted...
