probably me mate, turinis? RS192 oh and it only looks immaculate at speed, don't stop and look closer...lol!

correct, I found this out, lol! I meant to take a pic today chap but forgot, i'll get one tomorrow and post it here

spate of that in Matlock Bath recently I heard.....

lol, thankfully they came with the car when I bought it so no worries :) Chip-mk1 wheels staying ;) for now at least. and i'll get a couple of pics today if I remember. but the wheels basically touch the front bumper even after I dialled as much as I could out with the AST adjustables

Yeah I'm intending on getting a new wheel. But part of me likes the original one, total juxtaposition to the rest of the not very original interior :)

been a bit useless keeping the project thread up to date, i'll sort that tomorrow but basically its done, MOT last weekend and Tax kicked in first of May so road testing/shakedown has begun. couple of niggles uncovered, mostly due to the massive amount of castor the 182 wishbones have put on...

as above, the cost is the prep, not the paint. decent prep (no buckets of filler) costs a lot as it take a lot of time I paid 3.2k for my respray a few years back but that was full hit in and out and some welding, including a new roof skin fitting.

get some air for crowd pleasing the piss heads at the bridge ;)

its not dangerously lean, its for emissions regs basically

and god damn F1's are awful wheels, literally surrender monkeys

I like marmite, I like this simples

skateboard grip tape :rasp:

I have a set of decent working rears for sale

rofl, I've only had it 18 months I spose, not that long ;)

correct, no seperate tps and no iscv as such either. as you say the throttle itself modulates to give a stable idle (also that's how the cruise control works)

i would never of guessed she was called Debbie.................. :rasp:

you still checking the clio forums.................means heading back ;) myself, I've never left, I've always had at least one clio since I passed my test in 2001, currently I have 5 and nothing else!lol!

mmm, seems to be about the only thing available, they do a 8.4kw one as well but its a beast at 3kg may have to get a nosey at your at some point mate, noise isn't an issue cars loud as hell anyway, just effectiveness

which one have you got chip, I was looking at this one http://www.t7design.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=65&products_id=180&zenid=a6dd32930251c94b650cc5da45c0a508 but wasn't sure how well they actually perform and what your saying isn't encouraging standard box is a no go for...

it runs is all I know and believe its in for mapping

saw this car today, she works at the County Transport Highways Lab near me I suspect

cheers folks :) not bad for daily hacks!

surely they just lock up the wheels all the time, deft touch on the pedal required :)

you want offset (ET) of between 43 and 36 odd ideally to be issue free PCD is stud pattern which is 4x100 for all 4 stud Renault hubs centre bore is 60.1mm, so look for same or larger (can use spigots to bring bore down easily, but have to machine smaller bore wheels up to fit, PITA)

Wheels scrubbed up lovely chap, glad I wasn't on the list of let downs :)

interesting I may have a slightly bigger set of hurdles is all as my '172' track car is actually the b*****d child of a phase 1 172 shoehorned into a mk1 shell. so fitment could be a bit of a swine.

I can see that POV, however ime its been based in fear over experience. I've never used anything but used wheels and provided you check them over first, ring them for cracks and then fit tyres and balance there is no reason to fear

is everyone failing to read this thread? he likes clios, he wants to enjoy the building process so he should go and buy an mx5?
