Unexpected spot on my holiday. For a wave from the owner, anyone on here? I was in the red Peugeot 208 GTI.

Hello guys, it’s been a while since I’ve been on here but I thought it was probably the best place to get some decent advice. A good few years ago, I built a track car, which turned into a race car, got damaged and I planned to re-shell. I bought the replacement car quite a long time ago and...

Drove my Clio today, in the rain, and when coming off roundabouts with any sort of throttle (I mean at all, not just full throttle), the steering wheel pulls to the left and the car under steers like crazy, almost as if the tyres are bald. The tyres are fine, decent tread on them and pressures...

I had one on the car before but it’s installation was a little bit untidy, just a 13 row oil cooler under the front bumper crash bar with rubber hoses to the low pressure side of the rack and the PAS reservoir, worked well and stopped the fluid boiling over but looked terrible. This time round...

Looking for first hand experience only really, as I’m considering buying one but want honest user opinions... I’ve seen a couple of people complain about extra noise in the cabin but I’m not at all fussed by that. What I really want to know is if the lack of a return spring on the shifter to...

Old build thread here - https://www.cliosport.net/threads/ctcrc-pre-05-race-car-build-claudetheclio.746562/ - ended in disaster, a bent car, financial disaster and a broken marriage! So, the obvious thing to do was start again, right? Almost... I’ve bought my share the old car with some of the...

Before anyone says, yes, I know there's little point as the F4R makes fairly similar power, give or take 20bhp, to the Renault V6 ins non Renaultsport form, but... over the years I've seen all manner of V6s in little cars and the one thing I've never seen is a Clio with one in the front. It...

Ok so we run the Clio in CTCRC Pre 05, the regs say you have to keep the original caliper and original disc dimensions but pads and disc design are free (providing they're one piece) We've been using Pagid RS14s which were recommended to me by the guys at Bremsen Technik who used to supply...

Does anyone have one for a 182, which isn't coloured in? There's one online but it's blue and seems to be shaded so doing blocks of colour is nigh on impossible for my feeble skills.

odd request I know but does anyone know the length of the rear side windows on a 3 door mk2 ph2? (182)

Does anyone know of a way to switch the ESP off permanently? The regulations for the race series we plan to enter say ESP/TC is prohibited so I need to find a way really. Removing the fuse also stops the ABS working which isn't ideal.

So my wife is doing her ARDS test next month with the intention of going racing this year. I'm a little stuck for which championship to prep the car for though. I'm thinking the 750 Motor Club Hot Hatch championship, there's not much in the way of competition by the looks of it, seems to be...

I need some help... My wife is doing her ARDS test and (hopefully) getting her National B license in the next couple of months so I need to prepare the car for racing. At the moment, the springs are too soft on the front but I don't know what to go for! The rates on my Spax coilovers are...

I know it will have been asked before but I can't find definitive info using search... 182 Cup hubs are 60mm bolt spacing, are the cup pack cars the same? I need a hub to mock up my brake brackets, so I'm trying to widen my search...

My 182 has currently got a Fabia splitter but it's looking a little worse for wear so I'm looking for a replacement. I'd like something of a similar design but maybe a little deeper, what are the options? I've searched, but the pics aren't working in the thread from 2009 :(

Considering one of these next but I'm not sure if the Trophy is worth the extra over the standard car. Has anyone driven/owned both and how do they compare? I've read the reviews, the Trophy seems the better choice but journalists don't think with their own wallets so that's what I need to...

i feel a bit stupid here, I don't normally get stuck with this kind of thing but anyway... I'm in the process of removing the rear wiper on Claude, I've got the wiper arm off and he motor is unbolted inside but it's stuck, I guess there's a nut hidden under the trim but I can't get the trim...

So let's say you've been a complete and utter moron when ordering the RS tuner for your 182 and you've managed to order an RS tuner for a ph2 v6 instead... After you've stopped panicking and realised its already been shipped, then you've got the embarrassment of admitting it online out of the...

Having some trouble with my 182, seemed to start yesterday and I tried a few things last night with no success. The car is mechanically standard apart from a set of ported inlets and a decat. When maintaining a steady speed, the car seems to cut out very temporarily before running normally...

I'm struggling to find pictures of a RB car with body colour bullets, someone must have done it, surely?

What are people using? I need to get one ordered so I can get on with moving it so I can fit my airbox but I don't want to get one which is too small for to turn the engine over!

Mine are poop, they don't want to clio onto either the coil pack or the spark plugs so I have a misfire. Anyone else suffering with the same issue? What can I do?

As part of the prep for my next trackday, I've decided to fit an oil cooler as on the last one when the car got hot it got a bit tappy. I changed the oil to 5w50 (from 5w40) to combat it and it seemed to work but now I'm running it with the cooler I'm not sure I need to bother. I was using...

Not really a build thread this as the car is basically all done, only a cage, ported inlets and maybe some Wilwoods in the future. Picked it up like this - Gave it a quick service then set about getting the stripes off. Nightmare job, took about 3 hours! Stripped the rear of...

Hopefully I can get some good input here as I've been struggling for a long time to decide what to go for. My car is a 182 Cup, so I need 60mm bolt spacing. I need something which will go low on the rear, the car is fully stripped and has 2 bucket seats in and not a lot else. It will have a...

I seem to be struggling to find some which will fit, I'm not after something cheap and nasty, they MUST be a full coilover on the rear, not a seperate spring and adjuster setup and they MUST have adjustable damping. I know they won't be cheap but that's fine, I just want to know the options so...

Just thought I'd introduce myself on here, I'm Robin and I've actually been a member on here a while and used to work for a Northampton based tuning company who have done a fair bit with Clios over the years... I've just bought myself a 182 with both cup packs for me and the wife (Anna) to use...

Mid afternoon yesterday, had a little trouble keeping up with you in my 3 series. I have to say, I was very impressed, you managed to get my car to understeer, that never happens. Anyway, nice having a little play, whoever you were.

Which of them share gearbox/mounting bolt patterns? And what's the difference between these engines? Random question I know, but I have a plan, but my Renault engine identification is a bit rubbish :dapprove:
