I think it looks great on the F1's, has an old school, JPS Lotus vibe.

Thanks Guy's, yep it came out pretty nice in the end. Exhaust will be rectified in due course, I do have a set of track wheels for it which will be red ala R26R.

Bort was bought by a mate of mine! Yep I'm Sydney based. Interesting about the spoiler so its an addition bonded to standard spoiler? You really should bring this car with you and the V6 of course, great RS community over here, you'll be made very welcome, where in Sydney will you be living?

Epic build mate, loving the attention to detail. Had a phase 1 (Iceberg) myself we only got 85 of them here (Australia) and only 3 or 4 were Sunflower and now 1 remains! Sold my Ph1 to buy a Lotus Elise and regretted it, hope to buy it back one day. But I digress, I'm currently building up a...

Hi Guys, Had an old 8 ball in my top drawer, decided it might be fun to turn it into a shift knob. My 172 had the obligatory Richbrook which I never really felt comfortable with, the size just never seemed right, I also used to have a Ph1 Cup and this seems to approximate the size and feel. I...

Hi All, Just thought I'd add an experience with CV gaiters. I've seen a bunch of posts stating that if the inner CV gaiter fails on the driveshaft it can't be replaced and means a new shaft. I'll disagree with that. I have a replacement on mine and also another car that I sorted on the...

yep, need the clip tool to change the programming to turn on the intermittent function.

Actually you can change this, if you can hold of a Clip tool theres an option in there to switch off the sensor and switch on the variable intermittent function. A previous owner of my car had changed the screen for one without the sensor so I had no intermittent function. I recently borrowed...

Thanks Jonny, i'll give Mick a try!

Rain sensor? Mine had been removed by a previous owner so no intermittent wipe until I got hold of Clip and changed the programming to no rain sensor and intermittent wipe. In my case I also had a 'serv' light on the dash due to the missing sensor.

Bueller?

Anyone??

Can't comment on legality, but did this on my Audi A4 with projectors with no problems. Results are excellent much better light output, never been flashed by oncoming traffic.

Do you have a serv lght on? I bought my car with the sensor missing and 'serv' light on. Just repgrammed my uch with the clip tool and told the computer that it didnt have the rain sensor and switched on the option for intermittent wipers. All sorted, no more 'serv' light.

The car I am repairing belongs to a friend, the gearbox ran out of oil and seized. I reprogrammed my car, which is the same model, confirmed in the clip that it has saved the option for "ABS" in the Instrument panel, disconnected my gearbox sensor, no speedo. In the Clip I can see individual...

Hi All, Trying not to be a pest but I am struggling to find an "absolute" answer. I'm in Australia, I have an 02 Ph2 Non-Cup (we never got the Cup here) with gearbox speed sensor. The car needs a new gearbox and we have sourced one from a later car WITHOUT gearbox sensor. Gearboxes are hard to...

It seems that it's little more complicated than that. Don't spose you can shed any light on the exact procedure? I have changed the source in the Clip, but it no work. Have a car sitting waiting for a gearbox change so I'd really appreciate any insight!

This is how all the ph2 172's are down here in oz up till they fitted esp. Trying to work out how to get the speedo working via the abs using the clip, I have been able to change the config of the dash but there must be something else that needs changing too. That or the wiring is different.

Thread Resurect! Does anyone know the procedure in Clip to get this working? I have the Clip and can find the option to change the Instrument Panel Config, this is fine an I can change it, but no speedo reading on the dash. I have confirmed in the Clip that the wheel speed sensors are working...

Thanks edde. I'm really looking for an absolute answer on this. Unfortunately down here in Australia, used geraboxes are difficult to come by and breakers typically want stupid money for them. I have a 130 gearbox, and the car we want to fit it to has ABS, but the original box has speedo running...

ok ' , so more searching has thrown up the question, is it possible to reprogram the ecu to use the abs sensors as the speedo signal. seems to be lots of maybe's. has anyone actually done this?

Hi All, Is it possible to rewire the speedo to an ABS sensor in an an early, non-esp clio, to enable the fitment of the later gearbox that does not run the speedo sensor? i.e. can you put a JC5-130 box and still have a working speedo? Sorry of this has been asked before, but I did a search...

Heres a better one... http://w1.movies.taner.nethttp://w1.movies.taner.net

Jeez I feel old, I was 18 not that long ago (13 years ago!) suddenly Im 31! I did have a 205 GTi when I was 18 though, still have it in fact along with a few other toys. As a matter of interest I pay just on $1000 Australian for my full comp insurance, thats about £350 in your language

Ill ignore the "thats what you get for buying Sony" comment from ClioJohn escpecially considering Im using the standard Renault unit.;) Thanks VR6man any info would be most appreciated. I actually fabricated a mount that sits beside the console and required no holes to be drilled in the...

Me too, Northern Beaches area...

Hey SydneyClioSport, Do I gather from your nick that you are in Sydney Australia?

Anyone installed a handsfree car kit in their 172 Mk1? I need to know how to interface the kit with the standard head unit (single cd) to enable the phone to "pause" the radio when it rings. I pulled out the head unit expecting to find a "phone mute" wire ala sony head units but to no avail. I...
