    Clio 172 cup to a Civic Fn2

    Just feels a bit flat and linear to me. They don’t have the same aggressive vtec change as an ep3 type r remember. I had a jdm s2000 and would say the vtec engines are very numb feeling. Great thing about the Clio is it’ll not only rev but in my 172 for example (although has been mapped) I...

    Clio 172 cup to a Civic Fn2

    I got my Mrs an fn2 a couple of months ago. I have a 172 and a 200. The fn2 is a nice car but my 200 is much more fun to drive and feels faster (Honda is very smooth and lacks engine character) I do think they’re good value though but after a couple of months the first thing that springs to...

    Riddle me this

    I’ve had this a lot on my current phone, if it’s a mobile it’s a number that starts the same as mine actually (as I remember tho king it was odd the amount that were similar)

    Riddle me this

    Yep. And I did, yes. I signed in and downloaded WhatsApp on my new phone. But how would that associate anything as far as numbers go?

    Riddle me this

    Sick of constant calls (my number is on google from old business) I bought a new phone, new number. I’ve yet to start using the phone but had it a few weeks. The whole time I’ve had it on and mostly on airplane mode. The other day I turned it off airplane and sent a imessage from my...

    The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

    Cruised up in a vetrorisina Ferrari 308 in convoy with an F40 to the show and first thing I photographed was a mk2 golf GTI. And prob one of my favourite cars of the show

    Remap advice for 200

    Is it worth getting a 200 mapped which has a decat system and cone filter? Or is it a waste of time and would it be better to put the stock cats on to get rid of the running issue decat creates. Car has an original main cat with it, this can go back in but I’m told the toyo manifold and main...

    The cup

    Shame about the belt! More importantly... What guns you got?

    The Cars Spotted Appreciation Thread

    Did Syon park classic show yesterday, took couple of F’s up with my mate. It’s hilarious watching the reactions to the F40 on the road. People risking their phones out the window on motorway etc, crazy. Can’t attach pics?

    Clio 172 turbo - not quite running right

    As it’s been a year or so have you been through the wiring connectors? They have a habit of growing corrosion on these cars. I had throttle issues and turned out to be the main harness at the bulkhead. It’s worth checking that plug (under washer bottle, remove 10mm bolt and pull apart) and...

    Poor gear selection - PMS shifter

    That is indeed ‘not right’ so I’d say it may be a case of the setup being w**k rather than the shifter itself.

    PMS shifter - mods to ease the rattle

    Aside from the rattle I think they’re awesome. Mine and my mate’s cars are pretty similar but he has a PMS shifter, it feels so much more fun to drive with the shifter over mine. I get back in mine and it’s like stirring a pudding in comparison.

    PMS shifter - mods to ease the rattle

    Sounds interesting. My mate has one and I’ve always assumed it’s a design fault as his seems worse in ‘stick forward’ gears. Be interesting to see if Zeropoint get theirs to work better.

    Help, Ive spent a fortune on my clio .. ruined it and now thinking about selling..

    Always amazes me why more manufacturers never used the same head rest design as the Clio. It’s such a good idea to pivot from the top and is actually genuinely comfortable to lay your head back onto.

    Took this the other night at the POC brands track evening. Star of the night for sure (just needed the bumper vents rather than lights)

    Track day car steering wheel recommendations please!

    Suede is awesome. I have a really nice (found it still new) Momo suede wheel on mine but I’d recommend a Turn One wheel for reasonable money. I saw the make and assumed it’d be a branded Chinese cheaply but my friend has one and it’s Italian made (stamped in the back) OMP is nice too.

    Meglio x2 on ebay

    What are these Meglio clios like? Or more to the point, what is the reliability of the engine like? Can they take a track hammering?

    Lancer Evolution Appreciation Thread

    Anyone seen an RSX lately? I had one years ago and seemed like the perfect Evo 6 really. RS bits with nice seats & leccy windows

    Lancer Evolution Appreciation Thread

    I was a big fan of the 4. Had a few of them back in the day. I actually think they’re a better looking car than a 5/6 done right. Shame about the engines (but then most have 6 engines now)

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Race car maybe but I don’t see the benefit for road and track days? Maybe I’m just more sensitive to the noises & vibrations but it just goes right through me, made me reluctant to even Rev the car. I drove my mate’s 182 the other day which is on the deck on coil overs but it felt so much...

    What have you done to your car today ???

    I have heard that theory. It’s got a poly bushed dog bone (was just looking for a stock one). Not sure about the top gearbox mount as haven’t looked.

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Removed the ktec engine mount and fitted a stock one! Ahhhh, so much better! God knows why anyone would want one. And on that subject, anyone want to buy one. It’s totally awesome and transforms the car. Such great feel of the engine and everything will develop cool motorsport sounds (rattles)

    Where are you? I have a spare setup you can borrow in Ashford, Kent. Was intending to to the solid bushes myself but I’m going PMS after.

    Tightening up Gearchange options

    Wouldn’t say Zeropoint is just for show, they look well made. Not sure where you’ve seen the details as to what comes with it? I haven’t seen any info on their site for the 172/182 shifter, only the one pic on Facebook. They look extremely well made and I’ve no doubt they’ll perform well...

    Reminds me, I found a really clean Evo 6 knob the other day. They worth ebaying yet?

    RB 182 2005

    Yes. When I did the belts on mine the original crank pulley looked ropey too. I didn’t want to risk leaving it to fall apart after all the rest of the work so new one from pure motorsport held up the job.

    What's your favourite car related YouTube channel?

    Been watching the hill climb tv channel on YT today. Live coverage and few clios there. Got to love YT on your TV on a rainy Sunday. Lots of live streams of the racing going on these days, 750 motorclub and GT racing etc.

    Tightening up Gearchange options

    PMS is awesome and aside from the noise I don’t see why it wouldn’t be great on a daily. I was really impressed when I drove my mate’s 182 with PMS. The noise is shockingly bad though, I’d have to sort that a bit. It transforms the drive for me and made me want one in mine badly! If you...
