Anyone installed one of these?
Pretty interested in one, mainly for monitoring temps on track. Especially the transmission oil temp on the EDC!
I know there’s a few copies out there, are any of them worth the ££ considering some are significantly cheaper? If so, what’s the compromise...
Hi everyone
Not made a progress thread in a while, but good to be back in a fun car again!
So we have my 2013 Silver Clio RS200T EDC Lux - Cup Chassis
She’s done 21,000miles with full Renault history, has a Cup Chassis as an option, and currently, couldn’t be more pleased with her...
Hi again....
Been on and off this site for years! Had a 197 Cup, then two years ago bought a 172 track car. Then today I bought a 200t, for our second car, while the mrs gets to have the main car.
Which is absolutely fine with me, as means I can medal with it! Haha
So, I’ve had a quick...
Helllloooo there,
Kinda new here, but not quite. I'm Martin, from Chester. Know a few people on here are local but anyways...
Used to have a 197 CUP, absolutely loved it, but traded in for a Scirocco 2.0tsi. Had quite a few cars since, but knew I'd be back at some point! This was the 197, if...
Just at the cross roads...
You going into blacon from sealand rd, me going out of blacon at the lights.
Nodded at you in a White 197 Cup :)
Seen you around when I had my Corsa and RX-8.
So the 197 went in for abit of warranty work. Nothing major, just rear pads needed changing and I thought there was a knocking from the exhaust...
However, cutting a long story short, i never trusted this garage from day one, and me and the owner of the garage had a MAJOR falling out. Ended up...
So, had the 197 for 2 weeks now and today the penny dropped!
Before this car, the only performance car I've had long enough to adjust to driving was my 1.6T Corsa SRi. That was quick and felt it near enough from the start. Because its a torquey car and the turbo kicked in at 3k rpm, it near...
So, theres someone who's done this with their seats....
Fitted aftermarket sliders that fit onto the OEM floor fitments, with adapted beams. Like so...
The square bar that has been welded to the runners will attach to the floor by the same 2 bolts that you'd use to put the standard seats in...
So this is an OPINION thread...
Most peoples opinions are Recaro Pole Positions are the be all and end all of light fixed buckets. But what other options are there?
I thinking of 2 that are comfy enough for a trip to the 'ring or Spa etc, but as lightweight as possible with it. I know that is...
So I'm after a solution to putting one recaro pole position in for trackdays,
I want it to be simple so that the normal seats can be used daily, then the day before a trackday or whatever, I can stick the pole position in easily.
Does anyone have any ideas how I could go about this?
As...
Worth it?
I'm looking at taking it to a local performance tuner, rather than ktr or rs, very highly recommended, but just abit different.
I've heard of people putting the r26 carb on, but I was think individual jenveys or the like?
The actual mechanical fitment will be no issue and may even...
So went and swapped the Mazda after a grand total of 2 WEEKS for this...
Its a Clio 197 Cup and heres what the showroom had to say about it....
2008/08 RENAULT CLIO 197 CUP EDITION IN BRIGHT GLACIER WHITE, VERY SOUGHT AFTER COLOUR
COVERING ONLY 23K MILES WITH FULL SERVICE HISTORY, THIS CAR...
So, sold my Corsa and the 182 that I never used and I've bought this:
http://www.revitupuk.com/car.php?id=632
Absolutely fallen in love with it and can't wait to pick it up!
Think I'll put a full stainless system on it, new induction system (if any benefit over a panel), black vinyl roof...
So, Just about to go outside to fit the sender to my oil gauge, which is inside a tapered sump plug.
I changed the oil and filter around a month or 2 ago.
Is it worth emptying it all out and fitting the new plug...then putting the oil all back in.
Or should I do a full oil and filter change...
Ok, so we've had the discussion about turning my 182 into a race car, and it came to the conclusion that it was either make a track day car, or down class into say Class C racing.
I spoke to my mate about this, who I was going to race with, and he was adamant he wanted to race in Class A an...
So I'm entering the CSCC Tin Tops next season, and I'm going to race prep the car while this season is going on :)
Because of this....no turbo'ing :(
So I have several questions, all of which a search helped in no way...
First and foremost, in your personal opinions what will a N/A 182 max...
So if I was to look at a complete engine transplant, there's no need in me buying a 182, except if it contradicts the answer to my question!
Apart from the engine...what other upgrades did they do to the 182? Not bothered about cosmetics, just chassis wise really :)
Is it going to be worth me...
Personally I'm thinking, 172/182 stripped etc etc. Standard Fast Road/Track Car!
However! What common engine conversions are there?
What's a realistic BHP figure to talk about from a 172/182?
Is it comparable to the common engine conversions? Or is it a significant power increase with a...
Well, as I've said before, just ordered a black 1.2 i-Music and had a couple of ideas to run past ;) I'm going to have to get everyhing fitted by Renault as I want to keep the warrenty valid.
So was thinking a set of Renaultsport carbon skirts and a black Renaultsport spoiler. Just as I...
I've read all of the posts about it up in the stickys, but there's doesn't swan to be any Clio 3's in that sooooo,

Quick question on warrenties
just ordered the i-music, and wanted to put a whole sound system in to replace the orgional, focal 6x9s, jl audio fronts (on this topic, anyone know the standard size?) alpine headunit and a custom sub setup using a EV 18" driver, from a disco cab :) a 500w rms...
Hello everyone :)
Not exactly new to cars as I've owned and modified a White Corsa b for a year :)
then thought it was time to move onto bigger and better things
for example a black 10 plate Clio i-Music 1.2 16v
ordered it and put the deposit down this morning, and should be coming in the first...
