    Appears I've got the Clio bug again....

    I see what you're saying, in all honesty that's probably what I would end up doing - buying a modded one. How modded I don't know, and it would depend on what's been modded and of course my budget at the time. Most likely would get one with a standard engine but extensive chassis mods as I'm not...

    Appears I've got the Clio bug again....

    Yeah I was thinking of doing that too but with the type of things these cars are put through, you never know how long your gearbox is going to last or whether you're going to end up with an expensive engine bill due to a cambelt failure or a dropped valve. At least with a fresh gearbox and...

    Appears I've got the Clio bug again....

    Had my 182 Trophy written off xmas eve 2006 when some chav hit me head-on, then I got a Focus RS. Got bored of that so I bought a GSXR then a Fireblade and went to race school, doing several trackdays and getting into the fast group. As fun as motorcycles are, I would now only ride them on the...

    V6 engine in a 182?

    Has anyone done this yet? What would be the outcome...too 'front-heavy' causing understeer, too much power through the front wheels? The only reason I opted for a 182 Trophy is that I wanted 4 seats but I want to get as much power out of the F4R as possible or alternatively put a V6 in there. So...

    Throttle cable and lightened flywheel

    Hmmm.....I might need to rethink this if there's going to be torque loss.

    Throttle cable and lightened flywheel

    I've got a 182 Trophy. When you say box, you mean the gearbox right?

    Throttle cable and lightened flywheel

    As far as I'm aware these parts would improve throttle response but can they be used on their own as a cheaper and temporary modification or do they 'have' to be used in conjunction with things like a new ecu or cams etc? What are the individual costs of these parts and are they readily...

    Anyone fitted AP racing brakes to their clio?

    Would you say they are the best on the market? I've heard that they are the Be-all & end-all of brake kits.

    Has anyone fitted AP racing brakes to their RS clio with the 16" wheels still on?

    big brake upgrade

    Isn't there a way to get the brakes 'balanced' so that rear brakes have more stopping power?

    big brake upgrade

    When getting a big brake kit, which to my knowledge are usually just the front discs, is it advisable to get the rear discs replaced aswell?

    low speed torque/throttle response

    I would love to test your demo car but it's just finding the time in my busy schedule!

    low speed torque/throttle response

    Surely there's a way to get it to kick in earlier than 3k rpm?

    low speed torque/throttle response

    Need some guidance on tuning in layman terms please! I'm quite happy with my Trophy's performance @ 4k rpm & above but feel it's lacking in throttle response & low speed torque before it hits that mark. Am I right that remapping the ecu & possibly fitting throttle bodies would make power kick...

    182 Trophy questions...

    Has anyone actually matched their manifolds on their Trophy though, or at least a 182 cup? If so, how much of a difference did it make?

    182 Trophy questions...

    How much does the air con weigh in the trophy? Was told about 40kg - sound about right? Also, is stripping it out classed as a modification for insurance purposes? Also... Has anyone had their inlet manifolds matched on their trophy? Is it worth doing or has it already been done by...

    modded 2004 172 cup value?

    What do you guys think the value would be for the following spec on a private sale: March 2004 53 plate 172 cup with 20k mileage, modified to 200bhp atf on rolling-road, £14k bought new? I'm thinking of buying one from a mate pretty soon, he's asked around the £10k mark. Opinions guys...
