I think you've misinterpreted the intention old boy, I am merely trying to be perfectly transparent here. Thomas and I are good friends and he knows that I am not ruining his thread, just laying out some facts to allay any crictism I am recieve (in light of Louis' comment above, albeit he was...

Oh also the intermittent ABL which I suspect is an additional effect of the seat removal / reinsertion. This is something else that I had been unaware of when originally buying the car. I did notify Thomas of all these issues before he bought the car, a level of courtesy that wasn't afforded...

Lovely work Thomas. Glad she has gone to a good home and it will be sorely missed. Can I just point out before the guns are turned towards me that a couple of issues I never got around to resolving but were present when I purchased the car is the intermittent alarm fault (although this...

Very nice fella. Your pictures are excellent and very inspiring. I love that red trophy it’s my favourite colour combo. So nice. With regard to the heat Shield as I want to do this, is the black piece a standard item? I want to rip the carpet out of my cup it has no aircon already so will the...

I paid over the odds for mine when I bought it last year but in fairness it’s still going well I’ve had no issues and it goes like a rocket. I’ve had a lotus and trophy r Megane and the Clio in terms of performance is not too shabby at all. They are great cars. I plan to make it even more tidy...

Thanks guys. Yes that pic above does reveal how tricky a job it may be with engine in situe...hmm we will see. Mine looks so gash though I’ll have to address it. Another idea is a Pov spec one. Saw in another thread a lad has done a tidy job with this : Looks mint this:

Ok thanks, just across the sump or what?

It’s all pulled to pieces though and buggered basically!

Is it possible to source a replacement piece of carpet / heat shield / sound deadening for the rear of the engine? My current piece is scruffy and let’s the bay down. Or what else have people done instead? Pics would be appreciated, thanks!

As above please. I’ve done the inlet manifold and fuel rail cover and want to do the mount to match. I want to do it properly though and take it off. To do this do I just support the engine with a jack/some wood blocks then undo the bolts? Also what is the safest area to support the engine as I...

Yep that’s what I meant. Ok thanks fella.

Hi all, is there anywhere you can get these wheels as a complete wheel and tyre package all ready to fit? Ideally was after a set in anthracite with Nakang NSR’s (thibk that’s what they’re called). Cheers guys.

Should say ‘was fitted with’ Above ?

This looks lovely! I have some fairly hooptey tyres on my 172 Cup at the moment too but will be upgrading them when I sell my Lotus. Michelin’s look so much better too and fit the wheels perfectly. It’s what the car wasn’t fitted with as standard so I’m sure sure Renaultsport gave this a lot of...

Toyo T1R’s are utterly shat I do not know why so many people use them. May as well have your wheels wrapped in bread rolls. You should get Michelin Pilots or similar. I had Toyos on my Saxo years ago after Yokohama’s and it killed the feel of the car. Good tyres should not be underestimated...

Well I assume because the injector fault caused it to come on but now that’s fixed will it need to be reset manually ?

THanks fellas. I did use the tiniest amount of copper slip on the o ring on the fuel rail end but literally a tiny bit to liber the surface of it. So will I need to get the EML light switches off with a device or what?

Few typos above due to my sodding Phone but you get the idea!

Ok...another update for y’all; You are going to say i told you so haha...anyway, bit the bullet and bought four new injectors from Renparts on Thursday, paid for next day delivery as I was off Friday. They arrived in time and were all new I can confirm. Fitted them in about an hour and thank...

DID try that should say above ..!

Ok thanks. I didn’t try and unplug them as advised above and it’s noteably made it worse hence why I thought this may not be the issue. I will buy four anyway I’ve already spend a hundred or so quid on the f*cker so what’s another hundred Lol!?

Anyone?

Ok update on this I’ve been a bit busy. Tried the injector test and didn’t really notice any discernible difference in that unplugging them it really changed the engine note. It could be an intermittent one of course but not sure. Fitted new spark plugs today and still no joy. Seemed marginally...

Ok thanks fellas. I’ll guve that a try. I did a similar thing with the HT leads as initially I thought it may be those at fault. Annoyingly I’ve already needlessly spent £60 trying to find the fault but hey ho. Will keep you updated with how I get on. Can you buy genuine ones anywhere other than...

OK thanks dude. So by unplugging each one whilst engine Is running how will I be able to tell? Are they expensive to buy?

My Clio has developed a fault. Driving it the other day it suddenly lost some power, eml is on and it feels like it’s running on three cylinders. I’ve fitted new ht leads and coil pack and it’s still not right. Am going to do plugs too just in case but any other ideas? Can’t be something...

wow what a job, looks epic so far...

Looks excellent job well done. They certainly look awesome OEM spec!

Longshot, but does anyone know if these are still available? Mine is a cheap ass copy and the text is wearing off already...failing that, does anyone know what the options are for replacements? Photos would be useful, ta.
