Evening all, I recently bought a clio cup and it has an unknown remap on it (higher idle and increased rev limit). I am looking to revert it to standard as i used to own a cup previously and preffer the standard power delivery. The 1200rpm idle is also a little annoying at times! Is it...

Morning all, I have recently bought a clio cup. When i got it home i noticed it was running negative camber on the o\s\f but nearside seemed fine (my own fault for not taking it on long enough test drive) On closer inspection im guessing it may have had a knock at somepoint in its life...

Evening all, Can anyone point me in the direction of which insurance companies they use to cover a standard\modified 172 cup. I phoned my insurance company today (more than) to swap my cover from an Audi A3 2.0T (group 15) to a 172 cup (group 16) and they said they wouldnt cover me. I am 29...

Sold my 172 cup recently. Had owned it from new and was an awesome car that gave me 6 years of great fun but it was time for a change. I wanted my new car to be a bit bigger and comfier but with similar performance so i ended up with an Audi A3 2.0T Sline Special Edition. Been driving it for...

Had a little blast down the dual carrigeway together this morning about about 8am I was in a grey 56 plate Audi A3 2.0T S-line Thought it was quite funny as i just sold my cup and picked the audi up last night and then ended up racing a cup on the first morning of having it!! Cup...

Had a little blast from the BP garage. Sounded nice when you came past. Any mods?

Evening all, I fitted new front brake disks\pads a couple of weekends ago and now i get weird feedback through the steering wheel. Everything seems fine on smooth ground and i get no vibration through peddle when braking hard. The problem is i seem to get extra vibration through the...

Afternoon all, Does anyone know if the engine mounts have to be undone for the cambelt to be changed on a 172 cup? I had my cambelt changed last Friday and now get a harsh knocking noise when the wheels spin up in first and also a vibration when accelerating hard in second. Cheers Paul

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEESHsPqx5k Not sure if this is a repost but a good comparison vid of civic against cup. I have battled against a few out on the road and always find there is nothing in it. Some of the comments are quite funny... "this is a ragnotti clio, and it is...

Anybody know the part number for the above. I bought one of ebay which was advertised as a 172\182 coilpack but it doesnt fit. Exactly the same size but the electrical connector on the right is more round than rectangle. Part number on the one i bought is 7700873701. Anyone know if the...

My car has started misfiring under load and the toxic fume light has come on and stayed on. Want to try changing my plugs to see if this cures it but question is, how do you get to them? Do you have to remove the top head bit (if thats what its called) to access them? Not great at mechanics...

Can anyone recommend a good place around the Brackley area NN13 to get my Ktec exhaust fitted? My normal garage is busy and cant book me in for another week! Cheers

Afternoon all, How easy will it be to fit the new Ktec Stealth exhaust? Is it a simple enough job on the driveway backed up on ramps? Basically, my backbox snapped off the other day and am in need of a new exhaust. I had to cut the rubber star shapped mount when taking the old backbox off...

Afternoon all, Have been phoning around today to get the 36k service done on my 172 cup and am baffled as to how poor the service\knowledge of renault garages is. I know that people have always said that the customer service is poor but this is the first time i have really experienced it...

Had a problem the other day. Got a puncture and the hole was too big for the spray foam to do its job and seal it ( foam was just coming back out of the hole, and it was on a dark unlit road!) And yes I did jack it up to take the pressure off the tyre! Two hours of waiting for recovery truck...

Anyone found decent tyres out there, emphasis on a good price (£60 - £70 each, that last longer than 6K, without compromising grip? Especially of interest to me, as I do approx 2.5K a month and the torque steer just kills the tyres!

I have an 03 Cup, and have taken the pipe out leading to the bottom of the airbox, and just aimed it at the hole leaving a couple of inch gap. This gives a cool induction roar and also noticeable power gains. It seems to be in the perfect place to get cold air, as it is shielded by the battery...
