just been taken a bit further tuning wise as far as i know different turbos etc.. as for mine.. coilovers and sort a power steering setup with an electric pump are next payday then looks wise im thinking ph1 172 front end and skirts

no not at all.. i was looking at a standard flywheel today it dosn't look like theres an awful lot of material to be removed

yeah wind is a bit of a bugger for me aswell. seems to blow my car all over the place where others dont seem to affected by it thought i was going to part company with my sunroof aswell.. starting to see why they werent fitted to sports

bad earth somewhere methinks

was doing quite well for petrol untill the drive home used 3/4 of a tank :cool:

im cheaper than the aa! wink.. lol

there was its called the m11 lol.

the "not normal" clio was fecking insanity.. love it

going pretty well mate.. withstood a bit of a spanking today took it to fcs and the scenic route back.. 45 odd quids worth of vpower later! loads of plans for it all in good time!

dont worry mate i couldnt spot the steely on track ! couldnt find you mate god knows where you were but see you on track up the 1*2's arses

give it a kicking,, they can be a mare sometimes its jetwashes that do it. jag wheels seize on big time takes out 6ft bar to lever the feckers off

probaly a bit of rust (the flakes of rust) stuck behind one of the discs causing it to not sit flat done this myself a few times... need to make sure the flange is really clean too

if you are getting a strong equal spark out of each it wont be the coilpack mate. leads are over a ton from renault but you can get magencor ones cheaper about 70 quid i think

ha, that transparent aye

lol i dont think they are on about the car. they are all predators sarah,,, dont worry il protect you from them lol.

noice ! fancy doing mine,,,,,,, AT fcs, lol

no the bell housing is bigger/ different bolt spacing on the meg hence why its a fcuker to get in the 172 bay... same reason you cant fit the 6speeder to the 172

i do somewhere mate, can have it if i can find the fcuker im sure its in the stores at work... you at fcs yeah?

dropped on each as much as eachother? more than likely leads mate. bit of a crude method i use to see if leads are breaking down is run your hands over them and see if they shock you..

i've read that 3 times and i still dont get it. so you are saying, air or nitrogen dont expand as they are enclosed in a sealed tyre. but heat makes the pressure increase because its converting heat energy to pressure.. so, nitrogen does this less so? or should i just give up trying...

i thought i was gonna be the only one thinking of saying that :lolup: might fly to fcs :cool:

wouldnt have been you chasing me down the a127 a couple of months ago would it (i use the term chasing quite loosly as said focus ended up infront of me at quite some speed) im sure it was that number plate !

need to know if its missfiring first mate, could throw loads of random engine component names around but it dosn't help at all as they are un educated guesses without knowing the info

batterys not charged mate nothing else it can be really, unless theres a mega mega drain somewhere, but even cranking wouldnt drop it down to 7v so its not reallly feasable. sounds like its just not charged for what ever reason, need to boost it and get it running then see whats going on...

well a 1.3 gearbox one a 106 gti would give mental acceleration as a trade off for top speed... i'd imagine he wants to know if theres a similar gearbox swap for the clios. i'd say no,, as the box designed for the car struggles with the power let alone from a smaller engined car
