Keep it above 5k for the fun factor ;)

I see they've gone back to conti tyres as well . I wasn't overly impressed with them on my 172 , plus the fronts only lasted 7.5k . It doesn't say if they were developed for the 197 like the exaltos were for the 182 . I'll stick with my 182 , when its time to change i don't think i'll be...

Yep , sounds standard mate ,90ish in 3rd.

I'd guess it was the clip on the cv boot , rather than the cv boot itself , they are pretty weak and snap easily . Pack it with cv joint grease and jubilee clip it . I had both mine go on the 172 , grease all over the wheels . As soon as i got my new 182 i put 8mm cable ties over the clips...

Some insurance companies frown on things like intellistarts . Go for a company who actually know what the mod is all about . Adrian Flux are pretty clued up on mods . http://www.adrianflux.co.uk/

http://www.motor-world.co.uk/show_prod.php?prod_id=8712 http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/products/ProductDetail.asp?cls=ROAD&pcode=P/CC9008B You might have to buy cold air feed as well , not sure if they sell the bellmouth separate .

Looks smooth , pity there's no sound .

Least brake dust EBC greenstuff , good road pads .

Agree with martynh . Pixmania were miles cheaper for my camcorder than anywhere else, plus the model i bought wasn't actually out in the UK for another 6 months and you get 2 years warranty instead of the normal 1 year warranty . Delivered from France in 36 hours :)

^^^^ Agree , everybody i know that has used AOL regretted it .

The black dots i had on mine weren't stone chips ( looked like ibanzemans ) , it was more like the coating had bubbled .

Thats what the standard airbox setup does anyway !! :S

Fcuk me mate , you need a new isp not a useage meter , lol . Ntl never bother me about me exceeding my 30gb a month limit , lol ( touch wood )

^^^^ Nice one ! Thats definitely convinced me. A trip to Aldi me thinks :)

Ebc greenstuff are pretty cheap on here : https://secure.gsfcarparts.com/shop/basket.asp?notfound= I think you get CS discount as well . Part number for the pads is R64276FG , same pads as the meganes .

^^^^ I'd just use some 600 grit on the plastic , not too smooth , then plastic primer , couple of coats , 1200 grit on the primer . 3 coats of top coat or until your happy with the finish , if you get a good finish you shouldn't really need to sand the top coat . Then 3 coats of lacquer thinly...

Don't bother with Toyo widow makers mate , i had em on my 172 and they are absolutely crap in the wet , get some Exaltos hell of alot better grip in both wet and dry .

I wasn't gonna get one when i posted the link , think i might have changed my mind now , lol.

Good video Yoshi ,nice bit of drivin' , you loco bastardo ;)

Looks like a cup to me , Mondial blue .

Some people on here are as thick as sh*t ! Why the fcuk should he spend good money on an aftermarket exhaust when he has a Renault warranty ??? If you took the time to read the original post you would see he wanted advice on the problem , not what aftermarket exhaust to buy . Its people...

Depends what you want . Fancy , plain ........ ?? http://www.gtgrafix.com/ not cheap but good quality , about £50 a set .

^^^^ At last , somebody who talks sense :)

^^^^ WOW ! Good contribution to the thread .................. NOT :rasp:

^^^^ So your happy with the paint on your calipers , bubbling and smoking , lol ? I'd say if your calipers where getting that hot it won't be long before they fcuk up . Try the greenstuff imo , hardly any brake dust at all compared to other pads , and the new v4 are supposed to be pretty...

^^^^ And a few hundred sheets lighter . Like i said before , insist they replace the whole system . Get back onto Ren Customer services and tell them you want it sorting out with a full , new exhaust , don't let them fob you off mate , keep ringing until they are fed up with your voice . Then if...
