PH1 airbox's... Does anyone know if the clips can still be sourced for them, would be handy if they are available still, or even cross matched from a different item. I don't really want to use cable ties. Cheers

Would I be correct in thinking the coil pack mounting bracket that goes with the RS2 inlet is different between the 172 and 182 engine? i only ask as I can not for the life of me get all of the brackets holes to line with anything on the engine, (182 Trophy for reference!)

Would anyone happen to know what the torque setting should be for ARP flywheel bolts, if it makes any difference this is also with a Billet flywheel. i know standard is 55nm, but it would be nice to confirm what they should be before I bolt the box up to the engine. cheers :)

Silver 172, looks like it has anthracite standard wheels and slightly lowered. looks a tidy example from what I can see. i won't say the exact location other than, it's been parked outside my house the past couple of days.

As above really, would anyone happen to know how many hours Renault quote to do an exhaust manifold change on a 197? cheers

Hopefully a different camshaft question... i know there are the usual 421's, 428's and 438's etc, along with some now using the 197 profiles, but is there anything out there a bit more lairy, namely for a high compression engine that's purely for track use? im happy to consider solid lifters if...

Am I right in thinking that a Dephaser doesn't actually fail as such, but just becomes extremely noisy when they start to suffer? also, if one is becoming noisy and tired, can it cause issues with oil pressure? oil light is flickering on/off on a few occasions, aswell as the pressure gauge...

a quick one for those that own a ph1 172, can you disarm the passenger side airbag by means of a key switch in the same manor you can on the ph2 172/182's? cheers

Would anyone happen to know a silver 172 reg No: BJ52 YDL. its come from the Croydon area as far as I am led to believe. its come in at a mates garage as a trade in and I'm thinking of snapping it up, just after a little background info on it if possible. anyone know it? Cheers. PS: picture...

Would anyone know where to source the cup racer dash board atall? not the digital instrument cluster, but the main dash assembly itself? is there anywhere that does a polycarb copy/replica atall? Cheers

Is it possible to get a copy, or fibreglass variant of the Trophy tailgate spoiler atall? Daftly I parted with mine when I was breaking the car, but now need another. im not worried about it being genuine as it's only for the track car. if anyone knows of such a place that I could get one...

Got a bit of a problem which is slowly starting to bug me, so I'm hoping someone may know a way to cure it. if for example I'm scrolling through this site, I find something I wish to respond to but need to add pictures, I'll start typing what I need, then switch over to the photobucket app...

197 cams, worth fitting... ...if they are cheap enough, and if the belts are about to be done, and the rocker cover removed to sort an oil leak? still remaining on the standard inlet for the time being, but pretty much taking bits of the engine off to the stage where the cams are going to be...

I currently have the whiteline ARB, but in motion of having the PMS rear spherical bearing and bracing kits fitted. im in two minds as to wether or not keep the ARB aswell? anyone tried it with both, or has the ARB's requirements now been made pretty much redundant? I don't want to part with...

after a new satnav, havent bought one for a good many years now since i was last out on the road for work, but those days are long gone. my old one was a Tom Tom XL Europe, bought about 5/6 years ago, would have still be perfect now, but it just died one day :( for me, its basic needs are for...

No your usual tyre question comparing between two options, but this time... The Yokohama A048, has this been superseded by the AD08 atall? or are they two completely different identities? cheers.

A bit random, but can you turn off the passenger airbag in a 197 the same as you can with a 1*2? i don't mean via clip, but with the key the same as a 1*2 has a switch on the passenger door panel. ​cheers :)

Having had many a big power Cossie engine for trackday use, one of the first things that's often considered is a baffle plate within the sump to help with oil surge and oil starvation. is there anything available for the clio engines, even big winged sumps maybe? or do these engines not require...

Bit of a pickle of a problem yesterday evening with the Trackday Trophy. It was running perfectly fine, drove it out of the unit so I could pull all of my tools and shelving apart for a big tidy up and throw away what wasn't needed, reversed back in a few hours later all with no dramas atall...

Namely, the airbag and ABS warning lights... are these independent bulbs, or a LED that can be removed atall? im not worried about legal implications, I just want to extinguish them from always being alight on the track car. cheers :)

Do we have any Clio Sport members that live around the Newbury area atall? if so, would anyone mind having a quick once over a 172 at a dealers that's for sale for me please? beer tokens available :)

Hopefully just a real simple quickly for somone to confirm for me... am I correct in thinking, the uprated engine mounts would be the same from a phase 1 172 as to what id need to be fitting on the Trophy? had a nice offer of some that have been removed from a PH1, but I don't want to waste...

Pretty much as per thread title, how much of a necessity really are they? ive pretty much just replaced all of the engine mounts with brand new factory items when I did my recent engine/box swap, and the car is still yet to see a road/track since. ive now got myself a set of AT Power bodies...

I'm looking at the possibility of snapping up a 197, I believe its a cup. the intention is to pull it apart and make it a new trackday replacement for the Trophy. i know this site seems to be 172/182 dominated, but surely there are a good few 197 owners lurking about. has anyone changed over...

These were removed from my FRS just before it was sold. http://bit.ly/1a7CxPL

Quick question for those that have converted a formerly ABS equipped car to run non ABS. how far back have you taken the relevant wiring loom, it seems to have its own loom that disappears up into the fuse/relay box passenger side of the engine bay, does this loom come to a point where it can...

With the challenge of trying to source a second hand cup master cylinder I decided to nip in to my local dealership to get a price on a brand new item. ive been told there is a choice of 3 makes and he wanted to know which one i have (obviously I don't have one as I'm after one to convert the...

This is for the misses 182, not the trophy track car. We have 4 wiring plugs coming through the steering wheel, 2 are self explanatory being colour coded to the air bag. but we also have this one, which I daftly broke when changing the steering wheel over... am I right in thinking this is...
