Guys, not a sport I know, but ......
The step daughters 1.2 02 Reg Clio is a non runner, the garage have told her the ECU is dead.
Now, on a previous car, I sorted this myself with a second hand ECU and lock/key combo kit from a breakers. Question is this, can I buy a similar kit of parts ie...
I recently sold my superb Clio 172 Cup, http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?615340-Clio-172-Cup-Trophy-Recaros-Eibach-Koni-Suspension-and-more-%A33500
Why, well as a daily it was proving tiresome, and despite the fact it was an fantastic car when I was it the mood for it, most of the...
Has anyone in the Chester area got access to CLIP?
I need my airbag lights switching off, I've tried all the usual fixes after putting in my Recaros but no joy!
Thanks

Around 8pm tonight, Trophy heading north on the M56, heading away from Chester towards Warrington/Manchester. I was in the Cup, gave you an indicator wave!
No words, just follow the link and drool!

Yep, another one!
The car was bought September for a very good price (some cheeky bargaining went on!)
I'd driven around 16 RS Clios looking for the right one, this was the best by a long way in terms of the drive, the fact there was no mods and it was very clean inside and out was a bonus...
Just a quick question. Do these generally fit the seat belt anchor points or not? I'd hate order a load to find out the threads or diameter is different!

Flamer going into the side entrance (2 Site) at Airbus of the Broughton to Saltney straight this morning at 7.30. You went towards Airbus, I went towards Hawker!
Also, Blue 172 Cup (I think, could be the similar coloured 182, can never see the reg plate) parked opposite the airfield down the...
Where can I buy a DA Polisher from a shop, yes, a shop! (ie. not online)
Anyone know, I live in Lancashire, there must be a shop that sells this kind of thing surely?

Guys, swapping my suspension over this weekend, have decided to get new wishbones while I'm at it. Anything else to consider? Haven't looked under the Clio yet! Does it use drop links etc?

Friday afternoon about 5.30. Noticed it at the last moment as I drove past, 2 or 3 passengers and side Cliosport stickers, 04 plate, similar blue to my Cup (the correct name escapes me).
As above really, I've seen people using them (last trip to Oulton there was a guy shooting next to me with one) and I'm told the zoom available is huge, but are they up to much, not seen them mentioned in a single thread on here (that I could find anyway).

Has anyone come across, or custom fitted a head unit that actually fits the PH2 Clio properly?
I've just fitted an aftermarket one to mine just to see what the sound difference would be like and like all the others with aftermarket units I've seen, it doesn't come close to sitting flush!

Guys,
Anyone know where in the Chester area I can go to get some tyre swapping around done? I have two tyres I want fitting, the ones coming off are going to a mate, he'll want them fitting.
The first couple of places I called weren't interested!

Just a quick question!
I've noticed lots of Cliosporters go for 15" wheels for track days, what is the reasoning behind this?
Is it purely due to the cost of tyres, I know the 15" track tyres are cheaper etc, or is there a handling/performance gain I don't understand?

So, I've read lots about the Cup culling season.
Have we lost any yet this year??
I haven't seen any "My Cup is Dead" threads, but I may well have missed them!
I'm still using mine daily, although it's not been out this weekend, it will be out in the morning, and it's pretty bad here in...
Possibly a stupid question, but here goes!
Are the front and rear standard 172 Cup wheels the same PCD, ET offset etc?
I remember reading somewhere they weren't, but I could have dreamt it I suppose!

Guys,
Since the cold snap my Cup has been left stood, so about two weeks. Its warmed up a bit here so used it to commute the last couple of days. I've noticed it has gained a squeal that gains frequency with engine revs, but stops when I depress the clutch.
I'm guessing release bearing or...
What's this and what does it do? The plug in the centre of the photo that is! I'm guessing it's some sort of inlet air temp sensor, but I don't know for sure, hence the post.
