    Help. Need options, my gearbox don't like 5th gear anymore

    Ideally you need a 172 ph1 box. If you buy one from a ph2 they run the speedo off the ABS rings. The ph1 have a speedo drive in the box. I mean this in the nicest possible way, but is a 12 year old clio really worth spending all that money on?! Belts and dephaser; £600, box £150 (ish) plus...

    Flamer is dead

    So just put your engine and numberplates onto yeecup's car? Good work. Those ph2 sidestrips on there, i've touched those with my bare hands. Just you remember that... x

    Flamer is dead

    Does it involve making one good car out of the two, selling the leftover bits and then effectively having a sorted & modded ph1 flamer that owes you nothing? I bet it does... ;)

    high miles no belt change

    Thats why I haven't bothered. I'll drive it until it or the tensioner gives up. Then I'll buy as secondhand engine and fit new dephaser, belt kit, water pump and clutch all at the same time. At least then it *should* be bomb proof for the forseeable future.

    mx5 build thread

    I really really like the matt/gloss black on this car. Painting it would be a massive massive shame.

    High mileage missfire (non clio)

    I'd start with plugs, then leads. Honda's very very rarely go wrong so I would put money on it being a servicable item thats failed.

    High mileage missfire (non clio)

    Unless you know someone with the same car (and can chop and change parts) then the cheapest way of fixing this is to replace cheapest bits first. Personally, I'd pay someone with proper equipment to diagnose it. Not some mickey mouse code reader.

    182 Overheating....but no sign of head gasket blown ??!!

    cambelt kit, water pump, coolant, labour... I hope there's plenty of overtime at your work! lol.

    Anyone took out the centre box on standard 182 exhaust?

    I had one. Not a great deal of difference tbh. Makes it a tiny bit more raspy, but nothing else.

    How can I solve this? I take it's very, very easy.

    The plane has no falangey... ?

    I call it a bit of plastic trim.

    My Clio project (8500rpm + boost)

    I may take mine to TDF to get wired up. I don't think i've got the time or indeed the patience. Yours looks better though, owing to the fact yours isn't 5 different colours! lol.

    Clio - any good as a family car?

    I had a clio with my first child. It is perfectly manageable. Everything fits inside, they're safe, etc etc. However, I wanted to make my wifes life easier, so bought a 4 door car.

    How can you start a spotted thread and then not reply?? Put your willy down!

    I have two Willys :-/

    Ahh, I thought it was 1 and 3 that were the same.

    Should I Matte Black My Clio?

    I don't normaly agree with chip, but this spot on. It can look good on a £100k motor, but on anything else it looks pikey.
  19. Dicky Belly

    I have two Willys :-/

    Is it the 2 thats a different colour to the 3?

    I still say just swap the number plates.

    So... You're a drug dealer but dont want anybody to know..

    There's a massive black guy near me. His name is B***n Coke. He has a yellow F355 spider, Range rover, Dodge Ram etc etc. On the bottom of his number plates (which all say COKE in some form or another) It says ''I OWN A LIMO COMPANY, I AM NOT A DRUG DEALER''

    172 conversion on ebay

    Why? Is your friend a licker of windows? You can buy a newer, better proper 172/182 for the same price and cheaper. Why buy one thats got a sunroof and has clearly been thrashed all day every day? What is the matter with people??

    Clio 1*2 stripped out track tyres pressures!!

    In my experience, 18 cold means about 30 hot. I ran 22 cold in mine and they went to 40 hot! lol.

    Using K-Seal (rad weld), is it advisable or not?

    Oh in that case definately. I can't do it any cheaper than that as it will cost me £15 to post it.

    Using K-Seal (rad weld), is it advisable or not?

    The water pipes are in the right place so it should be fine. Infact, i've got two spare ones down the yard. £45 posted and i'll send it out weds.
