na, in england its known as "Rather f**king Tight"

RFT is fine

what's wrong with the engine (pm if you like) its a huge operation at specialist breakers, lots of people working there, quite easy to make the odd mistake, i got sent the wrong gearbox once, sorted out the next day

you should have a 90day warranty, don't worry, call the office tomorrow 01254 386661

possibly the most horrible to car fit spings too!

tbh i'd never driven one, i bought mine with out even test driving it! going from a 1.2 to a V6 was a big jump LOL (i bought it for the pose factor if i'm honnest!) i feel uncomfortable driving FWD clios now, put me in a V6 and i feel at home :) awesome things

yeah true jon, but the majority of people that have driven them have driven them for about 10min and the car is instantly crap

race car is different

discs are the same, so are calipers i think the 182 "might" have a few extra bits and bobs, nothing majore though from memory stub axles are different too i believe

you have to of lived with/driven one for at least a month to get use to it IMO

£3k+ to replace the shocks!

i'm in the same boat, new track rods :( oh they're a bag of laughs to fit!

see why i hate rolling roads now? "my car has 200bhp" yeah ok!

always take what a company "claims" with a pinch of salt, or sometimes an ocean full

well you're 3bhp down on a 172, so that'll do fine! the weird thing is the fly figures seem roughly correct, its the wheel figures that are way off which is what i'm struggling to understand here

the yellow one is fatboyslims (not the YS exhaust ;)) well done on the trophy fella

it is IMPOSSIBLE for any rolling road to give "spot on" flywheel figures a rolling road measures the power AT THE WHEELS and that figure is then calculated to give an approximate flywheel figure donsrno, i do appologise, i assumed you had a 172/182, but there's still no way on god's earth that...

don't think its possible to empty the tank on a 197 in 2.5hours! JR - i'm not as rich as you ;) riz - i'm not gay ;) renault did do the white after i harassed them into it! maybe i should ask them to do a PH-FRED? LOL

how can rollers make low figures at the wheels? 128.7@wheels! thats about 12bhp or so down on stock sounds like a s**t RR IMO

they're cheap! best to ring matt on 01254 386661, they sometimes don't answer e-mails (when you call ask for matt and mention me)

they're have a team of ex renault techs that work there, they're 1 of only 4 people i would let do a cambelt change on a 172/182 in the uk!

preston! go and see matt at specialist breakers! only in accrington (they do full workshop stuff too)

get a compression test done before anything

if a cowboy is doing the work then it'll be reused, if a pro does it EVERYTHING will be replaced

can you all post your @wheel figures, i spoke to alan and his car lost a huge amount through the trans, wondering if its just his or whether its everyone

because i'm moving to sweden! also the to insure a standard V6 in sweden is £4K per year!

yeah standard practise i would say to disconnect the battery

i'd only ever own a mk1 exige the 197 cup "Fred version" would be fully stripped out, about 1inch off the floor, white and some other bits (yozza exhaust obviously!)

^the boys that do the yozzasport exhausts have just done an exhaust for the zonda! (not joking either!)
