i wudnt say 350bhp is out of the question if you think how the the r5's have been round, how long has the clio turbo been out? and thats already upto 302bhp? i'd say this time next year we'll have a clio at 350bhp
mine doesnt crunch it slips in and out of gears fine it just sounds crap then gearbox mount has gone now but my gbox is chucking oil out of the breather pipe, it did have to much in before it kicked loads out i put it to the right level and its kicked some out today? i dont think this can be...
thats abit of weight ur putting in there stevey but i'm only saying that as i dont like seeing buckets in the back, i have buckets in mine cobreau carreras in all black there the sex really but i want some cobra misano's now
that cud be something to do with the brake pad or the caliper if it happens when you brake i wud say its something to do with the brakes take the wheel off make sure everything is tight
dont mess with the best coz the best dont mess!
i think i automatically qualify for a strengthened box or atleast some driving lessons so i know why i'm so harsh
nah she likes it rough its why i've had her for 3 years and she's never stalled once she's a good runnner mind you the red oil came out today maybe a little to much abuse gonna give her a service soon though
i think this topic should be changed to a what else can you do with a set of cams i hope k-tec and bb arent like you two lol you should be rivals so we can extract the most discount from each other
i wudnt pay 450 for a rebuild i'd get a new one and i'd be willing to pay over a grand if i knew it wud stand more abuse then standard isnt that what aftermarkets all about?
i bet evo's and scoobs have better box's available down the lines,
yea i probaly dont treat my box right but i have just...
ahhh i dont i cud do without that plastic imagine u get ur shopping out of the back and wollop ur head thet boot mechanism's will hurt more then the plastic :)
ur joking? i offered a guy 350 for a box as he was trying to sell the lot for 750 and it had been on ebay for over a month and he was like i cant wait a fortnight for the money taking the biscuit really i paid 350 for my 2nd, owwaaa mate 250 with the 182 diff mech :)
exactly i mean if you intend on owning the car for years then your gonna have a rare car people will here the psssshhh and be like weeeaarr? that clio is turbo'd they dont do turbo's oh yesh they do
and this thread is quality :)
i think we should change it to
*we demand better gbox's you french as*'s*
my language is getting appauling but how am i ever gonna grin at an evo driver as i zoom by if knowone will make one
i'm sure with all todays technologies and materials we could make a...
how much are you paying per box? that aint fair i keep looking for boxes and knowone wants to sell me a f*cking box arrrghhhhhhhh i'm just gonna be come a pirate atleast if i get a ole in me ship i'l sink with it
give me a box i'll box you for it
yea how much of a price though? like i think i'm already gonna sell my soul so k-tec will put 300bhp in my beast but i dunno if my gf will sell her soul for a sequential
i've done the conversion all in all cost me aboue 3.5k once the gbox decided to lock up but yea as 16vjon says if u want a unique car then go for it unless it isnt worth it, but you'll never have the feeling of someone pull beside you and think ehh the tadger only has a 1.2 and then you leave...
really though why do people say TB's and superchargers are the way forward? why? if your still gonna stick more power in it isnt gonna strengthen the gearbox anymore its stupid someone seriously needs to make a f*ckiing good box and clutch so we can push to 400bhp and no go *good golly miss...
i'm on my 2nd box :) my first one only lasted me a fortnight!!!!!!
and this one doesnt always sound to clever and throws oil out when i do mway journeys in 5th gear (and the isnt to much in)
think an engine mounts gone now so i have to replace them but still i want my gbox sorted i think thats 3...
i bet if we posted to tables of all the things we love about our clios and all the things we hate the hate table would be bigger and its just due to the fact that cars arent perfect even though everyone else's seems to be, i have a mate who has the 1.2 he thrashes it about all day and its never...
sand it down mask a bigger area but dont spray to the edge you blend it out like you would with a paint brush! when using laquer wait till it looks wet and quickly move to avoided running leave to dry a day then u have to really buff it up hope it helps mate :)
some people are f*cking wa*kers really!!! it p*sses me off
i know how much that rear bumper costs then how much u pay to get it sprayed and fitted then some t**t wrecks it
i left mine last week came back and i had these massive scratches on my tailgate like someone with a studded belt had...
thats the only thing with bodyshops its the fear of them not doing a good job like the first place i got my kit sprayed and they messed up the front bumper went somewere different for cheaper and his dont a mint job
