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.

Looks really good, nice work. I'm sure you've probably been asked this a million times now, but what ET are your wheels and what size / profile tyres? I'm guessing ET43 and 195 50 15? Thanks.

Very nice looks excellent!

Wow those do look great, BUT, 20mm is a fairly hefty spacer size innit! If I get the 2118's in the same ET as my OEM wheels that would, ideally I'd like silver or anthracite in ET38. I've emailed Speedline so we'll see what they say. Does anywhere online sell them in ET38 in those colours??

Why not?

Thanks lads. What spacers do you recommend? Will probably try without first then see.

But does it adversely affect the handling as mentioned above? Assume you'd need hubcentric spacers too, what size? I like to drive my Cup quickly and don't want to c**k up the handling, not too fussed by looks as long as it doesn't look terrible obviously lol!

Just found this thread which is helpful toward my ET enquiry on the other thread - thanks! Most places sell 'em in ET43 in Anthracite.

Thanks. I see the ones available for sale are mostly ET43, will this mean the wheels sit further into the arch than the OEM 16'' Cup Turinis?

old thread resurrection, but do you even need spacers on the 2118's, can you just run them as is? I've never been keen on using spacers myself, but want some 2118's!

Can you buy these new from Renault still:

Looking good, pretty much what I have been doing with mine.

Love this car / thread. One of the best, great attention to detail, thanks for taking the time to document watch step so diligently!

Can confirm ride is firm but handles well, it also looks better from side profile. Not derogatory, just stating how it was. Progress thread locked and do not have time to recreate, but may possibly continue on PH for those interested. Enjoying car so far, has some niggles to address...
