Wow this is the the thread of the moment isn't it! I seem to have missed quite a bit! Is it still about the coil overs? 35 pages felt like 300!
Is there a funky forum rating poll or something we can set up so people with them rate them in a easy to look at format? I dunno I just think that...
Apparently, you would not want any of those particular engines, but the idea is there! As I say the SC is mmmental, but Seans Turbo is pretty mental too! hummm, I think there is a decision to be made, perhaps i'll do her indoors dinner and see which wins! :)
It's kind of burnt mango! But the SC in situe and Sikooooo with it running made the visual onslaught worthwhile, Monaco blue, fastest ever! facto! ha ha!
They're not yellow, they are sort of orange, but no, not my taste, they do grab attention though! Even if to a secret snapper! ha ha (Waits for Dave to give some!)
Well decided to take K-Tec up on their offer of the first whizz in the SC Clio. After my last post, well, went a bit silly I went in to see the progress and decided to take a candid shot. The SC car unreal, I mean unreal! I'm going for it!
Anyway I picked the Cup up at closing, well a bit...
Get ya point there but, my Cup was £1800 9 months ago with more of a smoking problem than I have!, new bottom end etc, done. Driven it the last 8 months (£150 month on another motor, maybe) owes me nothing. Still be worth £2k when I sell it. Simples
Cars that are somewhat different are better...
Totally see where you are coming from, but the Cup owes me nothing (in my head!) I want three years out of it at Combe, the basics are already done (brakes, bushes etc...) it'll still be worth what 2k then? so 2k for three years of WTF motoring, not too bad.
P.S. I am my own accounting legend...
If the kits are DIY, how much is it for you guys to fit? Please take into consideration you do all my servicing etc... oh and I had an exhaust a top mounts on the Cup in the last 2 months! :)
I think the Cup will live on as does the Williams, so it's leave it unmolested or go for power and use it on the track etc, it kinda owes me nothing so it's the ideal op...
Has everyone seen this? Thinking about Supercharging the Cup for that sort of money and they are just down the road, anyone had any experience of the Supercharged stuff?
OK it's 4K but, 80BHP in the Cup would go down real well!
Get a 197 if you do most of your driving
a) around town, 0-30 even 40, six speed box, oh yes.
b) track days, these will kick the arse out of any 182,172 for this application, out of the box I mean, no tuner debates here, just the chassis is far better than the 197 PS prescribed.
Hi Guys,
Picking up an old thread here but my 172 ph2 only came with one key, foolishly I bartered £50.00 off the car for this, when I rung Renault £120 plus programming! WFT!
So I looked on Ebay and have bought a second hand key just to see what can be done. I have also found a device that...
Ah ha! V6 Espace! (Hides Phase 1 V6 Clio Airbox under desk!) Which ilk of Espace? V6 of course but a year at all? This would be rather helpful. thanks guys!
Hi Guys,
New to the site, so hello to all firstly. I have heard / read plenty about fitting a V6 Airbox to the 172 for power gains, does anyone know which V6 it comes from? There is a difference between the airboxes in the Phase 1 and Phase 2 Clio V6's and don't want to spend a fortune on the...
Hi Guys and girls,
Just bought a 172 Ph2 in silver! At Last! got a couple of teething issues i'm sure you peeps can help with, but wanted to say hi and hope to gain lots from your experience with these cars! Wanted one for years, finally got one! Bought a totally stock car, cam belt done...
