Good day everyone! I finally got my little track monster back. Since I hurt the front bumper anyway, I want to repair/repaint it and add fog lights to it. Here are the questions: 1. Is there a specific 172 ph1 air duct made, and if there is where can I buy or 3d print one? 2. Are all the...

So I finally got the car to an actual Renault sport specialist in capital city. Here are the main things done to it: - New ECU with a racing tune - Engine wiring harness redone - Rear light wiring fixed - Grounding wires fixed - Radiator fan wiring fixed - Engine head work (new valves) - New...

Long coming update! The good part: The good part is basically year 2021: I had made a commitment to do at least 5 track days, which I did. However, there is a bit more to the story then that. Since my car in 8 years of ownership never had it's cambelts changed, I decided to make that...

What does goosed mean? I will try and get my work laptop and reconnect the RS tuner to it. I highly doubt this car ever had been mapped, because the RPM seems to indicate stock levels. I will look into the wiring of ECU, it seems to have a few interesting-looking wires that have been...

Good day, I just spotted that I have messed-up wiring coming out of my ECU. Does anyone have a pinout diagram for 172 ph1? The ECU is the Sirius 32N.

Sorry to revive my dead thread, but I have poured in quite a bit of cash into my little Clio, and now the engine refresh part has come up. Maybe anyone has a clue how to fix my problem? Also, would it be possible to just send my ECU unit to EFI and have them do the job? Here is my Ecu code on...

Darn pandemic got in the way of me going racing again, but that does not mean I shouldn't prepare the little rocket for fun. First things first, as noted before I got almost all used exterior parts that I wanted/needed to be installed, as well as my rear fender arches and side skirts welded. I...

Update time! I had quite a bit of work done to the little Clio. - Spark plugs changed - T1R tires - Grams springs with cup shocks - Exhaust fixed - New brake rotors, pads, and calipers. - Fixed the brake bias regulator. - New alignment, camber of negative -1.5. Question of the day - what is...

Good day all! It has been pretty much seven years since I have posted here on the forum about my gravel Clio rs 172. Basically, I have raced it in snow, ice, and gravel. I was not kind at all to it. It does have quite a few special bits to it, and it even has a special VIN number. Good bits...

Good day, So I got my 172 ph1 renault, and after a few years of not using it I tried to read and write ECU with RS tuner. I have read the .cal and ecu files without problems. Here is what I got tho while trying to rewrite the file that I read: Also, here is the ECU fault I got when I read...

Well I still get the same error message. And i did replace icv to no avail.

I did right away. I thought you guys could be faster then Henk.

Hello guys, Here is the deal, I just got my renaultsport 172 clio race ready for iceracing. Last thing was to install an RS tuner Ron98 map. So I do get the correct software and read both my cal and ecu files, and then I try and upload my new .cal map. I get an Error message saying: Could not...

Ugh it has been a while since I got to work on my new clio, and this is because I was busy with the old (silver) clio. However, since the weather is going to get better in the next few weeks I will surely do much more work. First, I have already bought a used 4-2-1 (182) exhaust manifold, and I...

Interesting to say the least. I will try this for sure! Just, what is that UHC type unit.. Google seems to be of no use for this search.

Hello, I currently own two identical 172 RS Clio sports both ph1. Here is my question, can I swap their ECU's? Can there be anything that comes up? Why you might ask? well I have a suspicion that one of them is acting up. I really want to try this out today, so any quick answer will be...

So a bit of an update, I have got the car back to my garage, and the first impression is just WOW, it drives so much nicer, my car feels like a medusa compared to this one. I guess the full roll cage, suspension, seats, wheel etc, give this feeling of rigidity. Exciting bits are that my racing...

Hello guys, this is the first day I got my next project car. It has a full cage in it and the guy that sold it to me says it surely is some sort of french renault chasis. This is the only number I found so far: Any information on this would be highly appreciated. I had a hard time finding...

You guys are not gonna believe this. My buddy, national rallycross champion has no time to drive his practice car, and henceforth gave me an offer to buy it for dirt cheap. I could not pass up the opportunity so I have just purchased it! I will be getting her back to my garage tomorrow. This...

I know it is an instagram picture, but since I made this myself, I thought it is worth sharing.

Hello, Just so that I would not lose my list of what to do and what I have done I have decided to make a project threat to throw all my pictures and ideas at. So here it is: Renault Clio Sport 2.0 16V upgrade megalist Performance - Gearbox oil change - Clutch change -...

Sweet, yes I know for sure that for rallycross my buddy runs Avon slicks that are cut. But I want mine for this type of weather that is going on right now, just for practice. 65 fills the gap quite well!

Duuuuude! Those rally spoilers look SICK.

Hello guys, I have quite a bit of love for rally/cross events, and as the time now is such as the weather here in Lithuania blows (meaning snowish-rainish wet weather) I have a question. What are the best options for gravel road tires? For now I just rock the winter tires, and I have taller...

How hard is it to change the front sensor? Just take old one out and plug the new one in?

Phase 1

Thats what it is!!! It also shows the same error. How much is the new lambda?
