had clios all my driving life, still do. 33 and run a 182 daily, 172 phase 1 on stock and 2x mk1 clio 16v as well owned around 15 clio I reckon, mostly 16v or Williams and sports for the mk2's think I have issues

yeah loads of people chuck them, but never heard of any other benefits above weight saving tbh

welcome back, hope this one proves to be the third times a charm type affair!

Think I have bad on tape somewhere aswell @Dr Jekyll mega!!

Cheers chap, yeah looking forward to using it, it's a nice thing!

#banter flol!!

You're both wrong, simples ;-)

Awful wheel choice ;-)

Lol! Wheel choice is always a little divisive ;-) different strokes n all that!

Yes yes you are ;-) They're not going anywhere I just hate them so they'll go back on be car when I sell it. I hate them nearly as much as 2118's

cheers ears! great looking cars the phase 1's, i'd forgotten how much I like them tbh since the last one 5 odd years ago had to be minidisc :) I've got loads of minidiscs and personal players, another hobby of mine! lol!

Right, cracked on today with a few jobs I wanted to do to the car. First job was to remove the solid engine mounts, engine side, gearbox side and dogbone in bits: Dephaser looking pretty new Standard mount going on Didn't get any more pics at this point but back together again...

That looks lovely!

It's only few bolts whip dash off, I'd then drill couple of holes and bond some nuts to the underside. Then you can use some small bolts through the camera mount and remove when not in use. If you did that with self tappers the holes are going to pull through pretty quick after couple of refits

If you wouldn't mind chap that'd be great, want to make sure I get the right one! @green

Thought so Not this one either is it @green?

Morning all I'm getting confused at to what stereo I should have in my later model phase 1 172 (Y plate) My old X plate phase 1 had a tape deck but not a tuner list one, looked older and more in keeping with the phase 1 interior. Can anyone shed any light on what should be fitted to what age...

Not usually required if its for recovery on track and you have a cage, pop boot open and tow from that with a strap

Cracking work :-)

lovely clean example right there :)

Tbh usually with these engines it's injectors

know for a fact mine needs doing as the area is no longer lovely RB blue but more fantastic Mr fox orange :-(

yeah silly money, look much much better than the skoda ones, but not 20 odd times better from a cash perspective!

oh and welcome, apologies!lol!

have you unplugged the injector wiring on each injector and checked for engine note change? I suspect you have moved the faulty injector and its taken a while for the clean injector to clear the fault up in cylinder 3 and then taken a few cycles to then take cylinder 2 down if you did all this...

Mick at Diamond Motors in Nottingham area tbh

Bonzer @Dr Jekyll

Lovely work as ever, and look at that shiny hub, presume no issues with ball joint fitting?

I just bought a cheap universal I one in plain black (satin) from eBay Then proceeded to make a complete dogs dick of fitting it, flol

we all know nothing is every truly, really, honestly 'done' tinkerers will tinker ;)
