    Clio v450 Project

    I believe for the points system to work the monocoque needs to be unmodified. This is off the .gov page. Local lad near me has an Astra J estate turned into a 2 door van. It looks mega and something happened a year or 2 ago resulting it getting pulled in for a check and they put it on a Q...

    Clio v450 Project

    Following, sounds like a great project. With the modifications required to the monocoque shell for 4wd, itll defo fall under iva territory if your wanting it 100% legal.

    Gap between oil sump and engine block?

    Normal, the gasket is rubber and does not fully compress when fitted

    Clio 4 rs 200 edc

    Michelin pilot sport 5

    No complaints here either. Step up from ps4 in terms of grip, the slightly stiffer sidewalls on ps5 aid turn in. Mine also gripped very well with low tread. Changed back to my summer wheels with a fresh set of ps5 on and the difference was marginal.

    Solid top mounts daily?

    Ive not used solid top mounts on a clio, but use them on other cars. As @Ph1 Tom said ive found them to be more than acceptable for road use and hardly any nvh increase, worth fitting if you want the handling to be on point.

    Fuel additives for storage

    Probably wont hurt but never bothered personally, i leave them with minimum amount of fuel in and not had any issues over the years. My extra van has been sat since Anglesey last year and it fired right up on last years fuel no issues. I did crack the ign on a couple of times over the year to...

    Another Track Pad Question

    Get a bit of dust but it doesnt ruin your wheels. I run them with white alloys and they clean up easy with bh autowheel.

    Chris's 172 Cup Turbo

    Bumpstops always fall to bits on these, as they are used as secondary damping when lowered. I destroyed a bumpstop riding the kerbs at Blyton. Id imagine the springs are progressively wound so will touch coils a bit.

    Brigsy's other cars - formerly kangoo 172 cup

    Parked it up after Anglesey and done nothing until this week. Small list of bits to do. Reseal sump - c1j are a leaker anyway but this was getting to be horrendous. I have an undertray fitted and it was getting over the edge of that but hardly using any on the stick. Assume position. Found...

    2003 Renault Clio Dynamique alarm system

    Does it actually have one? Never see them in non sport To test, sit in the car and lock it with the button on the key, stay still until it sets and when you move the ultrasonics will sense movement and go off.

    Tie rods / Track rod ends

    Probably wants new tie rods anyway if not done before. As above easy to do in situ with the tool. If its cup pack, you will need the correct length tie rods to suit, prob best off using oem

    Danith's Clio RS 220 Trophy ph2

    Steering wheel looks great. Pain about the squib, they are super fragile. I hate removing ren airbags for that reason as easily damaged.

    Arch lining

    The plastic on the aftermarket ones are terrible. I fitted one to my clio dci, the flap part that clips to subframe support snapped when fitting. Had to tie wrap it together
