Uhh....lost for words.

Re: PS4 pre-order I'll be getting mine when the price drops after Christmas. I can wait. I got my PSX 2 years after launch and my PS2 and PS3 on launch but I'll wait for prices to come down before getting my PS4 I think.

Very easy. I assume you bought them with new ball joints already fitted from Renault? Wheel off, undo ball joint bolt, lever it out. Undo two bolts to subframe. Refitting is the reverse of removal. However the extra caster will alter your toe settings so you'd want to set that afterwards.

Could you do it with trade plates?

I'm going to order a VW rad and slimline fan this weekend and I've already got a fan switch blank in case the rad doesn't come with one. The current fan has two plus on it, one for the motor and one on the shroud. When I wire the new fan in will I just need the motor wiring and not the one...

It's not dangerous. And it'll make a little more power as it is.

Re: Ph1 172 It's the most likely. With me keeping it N/A the best solution for the most torque is ITBs. I would want it to run like standard though. No cold start issues, nice idle, start first turn of the key.

Where is the fan switch on a Ph1 172? I thought it would be in the radiator but it's blanked off.

Decat would be much louder

As a better all round tyre I much prefer the Dunlop Bluresponse, very good tyre.

It'll look great a few mm lower. Vids when you've got the decat on please!

For my Ph1 I went Quaife with the 4.07 final drive rather than the 3.89. Gearing is pretty good, just needs ITBs now. Something like a 4.27 would be perfect imo.

Good effort, well done!

You forgot Leicester

I thought the 200 exhaust was pretty good and you could benefit from doing a y-pipe and sports cat?

Both as standard I'd have the DC5. I'd only consider the Mk3 Clio if it had boost and a diff.

Get some camber bolts on there and get the camber up to max.

They seem to get good reviews, but for 15" they only do a 195 profile not a 205 :(

X112 FGM

Looks great in the last photos!

I went for them as its cheaper than losing a valve head.

Take and average of the max power and torque figures and it's 184bhp and 173lbft. That's exactly the same mine is putting out with ITG filter, ported head, matches inlets, Piper cams, 182 manifold and sports cat. So very good figures if they're accurate :)

Which is correct 1035 or 1059kg?

Re: Ph1 172 Ok I'll start with 2.5 and see how that goes. Collected my alloy bonnet today, rather light! Very pleased. It came from a car on here, X277 HAV

Re: Ph1 172 Ok. I think its around 1.5-1.6 on the rear so an extra 0.5 should do? Or take it up to 2.5?

Looking good!

Re: Ph1 172 I'll just max it all out!! See how it goes. Is it worth getting more camber on the rear? Tyre wear on the back seemed spot on.

Shame they don't do them for the Clio

Re: Ph1 172 Believe it not I weighed in a powdercoated cup subframe...whoops! Swapping to a ph2 subframe would lose caster though wouldn't it? I can get 3.2 from the camber bolts and ASTs. Should be better than the 1.8 I've got.
