Cheers Guys Its a Major PITA , if i had have crashed it more fool me. But someone went into me thats what guts me, it wasnt my fault. I said to the guy, you really dont understand the work ive put into this he just shrugged :( It wasnt classed as a CAT C before (lucky me) so i wont lose any...

Well guys it was all MOT'd and on the road as of last Tuesday, i Taxed it for 12months (which i rarely do it was £250) and it seemed a great little car. It needed the alignment setting up on it but bar that i was chuffed with what i had achieved with her. Anyway on Saturday i was dropping a Lady...

Ahhh cheers mate, ive just searched the Forum RE that issue (never even knew they had one) That would explain alot!! That has made me happier as even less to repair now!!

Well had MOT on Thursday and Failed. But it was not on Much Heres what she failed on.. Front Lights Aim too low Hazard switch not working Offside ball joint has excessive play (it needs the pinch bolt tightening up) Rear brakes recording little or no effort (Just needs freeing up due to it...

Cheers mate,thats what ive been told but im normally a pug man and havent heard of a stealth until today lol FAIL, the exhaust mount is fubared so i plan on getting a new one :) And the bumper is temporary ;)

Sorry guys seems that i cant find a decent picture of a standard exhaust :( Mines a bit throaty, could anyone tell me if its standard? No induction kit is on it Any help would be much appreciated

Well virtually finished her this weekend, Bled the brakes and finished the bits and bobs, starts first time every time :) A few bits that need sorting out but i wasnt going to find them out until i took it for a spin. Needs alignment etc... doing which is a bit obvious and then its ready for...

Cheers Badger, should all be done in good time, not the best condition one bodywork wise but wont look half bad cleaned up :) Yeah ive heard that they are good, i need to invest in some next month dont i. Bizzarely enough it has braided lines on the front already, just needs some on the back and...

Another update Track rod end sorted today, what a pain in the bum hole these are!!!!I hate them lol Also put the wing i got onto her Managed to get her started up and My mate went for a little spin up the close Heres some pics :cool: Some Videos Wont be able to work on it until next month...

Cheers Guys, wouldnt bump at first, tried using the jump leads and earthing the negative to the chassis leg and nothing, got a tow rope out, got towed and bumped it and hey presto it works :) Think the starter has a loose connection or something as it goes sometimes but not others. Will have...

Been working on my clio for the past few weeks sorting its bodywork out Came to it this week and thought id start it (i originally started it 2 weeks ago and there were no issues at all) Came to turn it on this week and nothing All thats happened is i have removed the battery taken it home...

Quick Update Went the Garage today, Driveshaft on albeit without the hub nut, ball joint being the biggest pain in the arse ever! Got the back bumper on and fitted a new number plate light for it The Wing coming next week so that will be getting fitted. Seemed it didnt want to start today for...

Update, Got the car back from the bodywork place on Friday. Ordered a back bumper (albeit with a cut out for an exhaust but getting one on for now is my main priority) also ordered a new driveshaft both are due next week some time Well went to the garage today just to have a look at the work...

Ah this may cause a problem then?The driveshaft that was on the car looks like the one in the link I have an 03 172 hub and not a 03 172 cup hub on my 172 cup What is the major difference between them all?

All sounds a good set up mate S1 16vs are great but i think they are only ideal if you want a Fast road/Track car not a everyday car ;) Sounds like you have all the right ideas and you have a mint Gti to put them on :)

Re: The car you wish you never sold... What were they? Miss my immaculate standard s2 rallye :(

Anyone had any experience with these driveshafts?? http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Renault_Clio_2.0_2003/p/car-parts/car-transmission/transmission-parts/driveshaft/?654746381&1&de285fba38546e7619212c36f553cec0285b31be&DRSH Only reason i ask is I have looked else where and the drivers...

Update - No pics :( Well went to the Garage today and took the rear bumber off Took the bumper off and the bumper protection inside was all cracked so away with that, had to hack the bumper off in places Had a bodywork repair guy who knows my dad come around and have a look at it. He's...

Looks Great!!:D Some people dont appreciate the work that goes into detailing. Its amazing what value it can add to a car in a dealership too. I bet on a AM you could easily add 1k onto the value Did you use a rotary or Orbital Buffer?

Shocking!!! Shame they didnt hit the car behind you :(

Tis true ^^^ Its not like a turbo car where you let the turbo cool, and it would take a fare few minutes for it to start cooling down especially after a sprinted drive The only thing cooling as said would be the metal pipes as they are not getting heat through them when your stood still, it...

It takes me 1 and a half days at least to do a hot hatch :(

No worries mate Hangers would need to be modified on the backbox as they are in different places so wouldnt sit right :)

They are Kam Racings own exhaust, they look very familiar but have a outward rolled end like the Pugsport and are quieter, not much in them and the supersprint really and they are lighter :) Like you said though see whats up forsale nearer the time be easier If you ever need help mate give...

Sound good dont they :) and look the part, Kam racing used to sell them but dont anymore, maybe worth seeing if theres any on the 106 forums, i havent seen them in a while to be honest but im sure they are still out there The Carriers on the callipers themselves are quite bulky so i dont see...

As above definatly ^^^^ Take it to your local tyre and exhaust centre or a cheap back street one, shouldnt cost too much

Theres not much room to play with, if you opt for rallye steelies you the 266mm kit will fit under them wouldnt advise the flat weights though.I used plain mintex disc's and 1188's on my s1 rallye 16v track car and didnt have any issues with brake fade etc... Also i was looking and found a...

Fair play mate :) Will be nice to see when its finished And LOL, i THINK i know whats wrong with mine, getting under it on Thursday lol Not supprised it took a while to start if its been sat for a while mate. Just make sure oil is topped up and leave it to run for a while so it frees the...

Your a lucky one then lol, im stuck with a dented floor pan that i have to get re-jigged :( Its been there since 2007 then thats pretty mad!

Be good to see, get some pics up :) Quite similar to the situation im in Ive just bought a 03 172 cup Cat C for £400 (have a look in the clio project forum on here). Was the boot dented or the boot pan itself? Matt Black is a wishy washy colour for me, its an easy solution to spraying but...
