massive update: Clio scrapped, bought a civic eg5. It was bound to happen.

Hi guys, got the sump plug and washers last night. it came with 2 washers, a copper one and a steel one with a rubber seal, which one should I use? Cheers

Haha thanks, I'll bear that in mind!

Totally skipped my mind! Found a new plug and washer on ebay for 3.29 or something though so not a problem thankfully!

Hey guys, Gave the car a good service today, unfortunately after being a left for a few hours it seems my car wet itself and is leaking oil from the sump plug. Not sure whether its not tightened enough or the washer is fucked or whatever But does anyone know where I can pick up a new plug and...

Does anyone know what the diameter of the cold air intake pipe is on the K&N 57i 1.2 kit is? Any help would be awesome, Cheers Newbie

cheers guys. So wait...just anywhere on the metal body of the car??

Hi guys, just about to go down and install my new Fusion AT1100 tube sub, just want to make sure I know everything I need to know before I get stuck in. All I need to know is where the best point to ground the negative wire is! Cheers! Newbie

Also, what sort of mpg did you average? Cheers

She's looking at the 86, how much would she be looking at price wise for a remap?

Hey guys, a mate of mine is looking at a mark 3 Clio, the 1.5 dci. Anybody got something to say about them? Reliability, performance, fuel economy etc? any help would be great cheers newbie

haha, well this helmet was booya'd anyway, been thrashed about a lot after coming off quads and stuff, just did it as it was all scratched up. This car is being done up on a budget, and a damned tight one at that. A lot of stuff I can get done for free so its not a massive problem, just want it...

RIGHT well, today I got bored and decided that my car no longer deserved to have insides. So this happened Decided to completely remove the rear seats, parcel shelf, side cards and most of the panels. This obviously isn't done, a rear strut brace will be going in along with a decently...

See I've been thinking that as well, like if the whole thing was one colour it might look a bit bland? Problem is my standard trim model came with black bumpers so I may have to get new ones, how much is it gonna be to get them sprayed do you reckon?

has anyone got a royal blue mk2 ph1 that's had colour coded strips/bumpers? Really want to know how they look, and how easy it is to do yourself? Cheers

Well I'm keeping the little runabout for a few years, to be honest its good on fuel and I won't be able to afford a 172 for a while, but that's the goal in about 2 years. I just want to get this one looking tidy and sounding a bit nicer and I'll be happy, not going to go crazy on it, there's...

That is the wire for the boot interior light. I only know this because the garage that MOT'd mine stole the light itself.

Well its been a while since anything happened with the little sh*tbag. Finally got it lowered in late august, with great difficulty as the garage that replaced the shock a few months before i had it decided to use an airgun to tighten the strut back up. Anyway, I enjoyed the 35mm drop until...

Bought my ph1 1.2 a few months ago with no big plans in mind as, unfortunately, its only a 1.2. Ended up lowering it by 35mm and putting some alloys on it and now i want more. Dammit. Anyway, I'm aware any engine mods above an air induction kit are pointless, so stripping it out seems the way...

Literally cannot be any worse than my clio. The wheel fell off the other day. I am not kidding.

If I could afford to buy and run a 230 I would, but it's pretty much going to be either the 1.5 or 1.9 dci

any chance of a link?

Well its my second car haha, insurance isn't too bad on the 120 but i'm pretty sure the 175 would skint me for life. What exactly is crap about them? I've got a good few months to make my mind up

Basically I've been thinking about what the next car's going to be, pretty much settled with a 1.9 DCi megane 120 (I've got a thing for arses) Anyway, does anyone know if theres a forum similar to cliosport where I could check out what some people do to them? Cheers Newbie

Hi guys, I need to remove the headlights on my mk2 phase 1 clio, Mainly because they need cleaning out but also because I'm replacing them with the cliosport ones soon. Had a whack at taking them out yesterday but they just wouldn't seem to budge, and as a result my bonnet now doesn't close...

1.2 Mark 2 Phase 1 - First car Ok so bad news.... Went off on saturday to get the new Eibach springs fitted (35mm drop) and, after taking off the wheel etc etc we found out that the spanner that I had waited so long for......didn't fit. Renault decided that they'd use a 21mm nut instead of a...

Re: 1.2 Mark 2 Phase 1 - First car That's pretty much what I'm going for! Just to make it look a bit smoother round the edges, haven't decided on alloys yet. Was thinking either pro race 3s or my mate has some wolf racing 15s going for 120 quid with fresh tires.....quite tempting.

Wait...do the ph2 bumpers fit the ph1?! Not sure how that would even look.... Off to get him lowered now! Shall post picture updates later

Ah well I sprayed my off road bike helmet matt black.....drippy. oh so drippy.

Thanks a lot!
