Hubs and Quaife and Meg 5th gear is the combo I'll be running. :up:

Yep they're the ones. Combine that with a worn plastic selector bush and it adds load to the bush everytime you change gear.

Keep checking in here mate - http://www.cliosport.net/threads/cliosport-festival-2016.784634/ all the info and banter in here! Lol

I'm not sure yet mate. As soon as a date is confirmed it'll no doubt be highlighted on the home page on here anyway - some time in the summer though I'd imagine. I'll be going.

Good man! Flol! Reckon you'll be coming to CSF?

How high is the gear lever when your hand is on it to select gear mate? Maybe a side on shot with your hand on the steering wheel and one on your gear lever would give you a good pic. You'll obviously need an assistant to take the pic though!

Well fingers crossed it doesn't come to that mate!

Well you know where to come if/when you want a gripper mate! I can supply and fit. I'm also cheaper than anyone else for supplying. :up:

Whereas I'm only a 2-3 second walk away from mine! I've got 4 gearboxes in for rebuild and Quaife diff fitting so they're taking up space atm. I've only got the bell and rotor setup to buy now and I'm about done!

Erm, well it's still in the garage! I saw it today when I was in there sorting other odds and sods out. Lol! I'll have a bit of a push again in the new year. Possibly. Lol

Ph2 all day long.

Pass the pins through where the original boot grommets are mate.

Looked at the cup today. But that's all. @bashracing lol!! Washed the blue golf. At home!! @not normal dan lol!

This +1 tbqfh. Mountain. Mole hill.

Need one without the engine cover on mate.

Once you've got the upper inlet off etc, you'll find there's loads of room tbf. I also took my alternator and brackets off before lifting it out just to gain even more space, but it's not totally necessary.

The loom stays in the car. When I took mine out I unplugged all the sensors and laid the loom over the n/s headlight. After that it's a case of unbolting the exhaust manifold, coolant pipes off, driveshafts out (drain the gear oil first - saves a mess when you pop the n/s shaft out), unbolt the...

Post up a pic of the engine mate and I'll hopefully be able to see enough to answer the engine question.

182 breather plate won't fit on a 172 head unless someone's fitted the 182 cam cover. But that's a whole different can of worms to open! Lol

The grippers have modified plates in them now which cuts down on the noise by quite a lot, to the extent that they're hardly noticeable now.

@Dan@SJM - how's it gone with the gear cables btw? Meant to text and ask you, but I forgot!!

Hammer and condom man myself. If the hammer don't work, f**k it. Lol!

Lol!! You can keep your cable ties, tape and hammer for your Clio!! You can't rush perfection!!

So just to clarify, are you fitting a new belt kit, or reusing the old one? I'm trying to understand why your idler pulley has broken up if it's new - I'm assuming it's the original one that's done this? The genuine renault belt kit comes with the new spacers to go with the new idler rollers...

Lol! I'm trying to!!

And now we have a video to show the play!! Hopefully you can see play in the bushes.

Ah they're probably the nylon rear top mounts I'm thinking? I started that off ages ago!! Just made sets for me and BIGASH though as there wasn't enough demand for a full scale run of them.

Yeah they're m9x1 mate. Yes the oe rear dampers are also m9x1. Why the f**k they decided that was the way forward I'll never know. A bit like using m7 bolts on the sump. Dicks.

Put a wanted ad up mate. Anyone who's fitted new dampers and retained the originals will have some. Failing that, tap out an m8 nut.

Agreed. The injectors have a permanent (ignition on) 12v feed. They are activated when the ecu completes the circuit and goes to earth.
