Hi All,
I just replaced the UCH on my 172 Cup with a re-programmed unit from eBay (i.e. sent my old unit off to be decoded). Everything seems to work, but the key fob will only lock the car, not unlock it. If I lock the car, I have to get in by unlocking the passenger door, which sets the alarm...
Hoping there might be someone who can help out with the Formula Renault engine in my project car, which is basically an F4R but with a Renault Sport dry sump. I came to starting it up today and first cranked the engine without plugs etc to build oil pressure, but ended up spending the whole...
As per the title, really.. Does anyone know what the taper angle is? I'd measure but I don't have any to hand and don't want to buy one if it isn't going to work with my setup (not a Clio - a project).
ETA: 172 / 182
It will save you a lot of trouble!
This happened recently.. I was making my way home from work in heavy traffic on the motorway when someone pulled behind me in the RH-most lane, flashing constantly and very close to my bumper. I was in that lane for a reason and I can't stand that kind of...
Hi all,
I figure this is the best place to post, but let me know if it needs to go somewhere else!
I'm building a space-frame 205 T16, using a few familiar parts as well as custom fabrications. The intention is for it to be used as a demo car for a potential new low cost endurance series. The...
Does anyone know the dimensions of the rear brake caliper mounts? I'm looking for PCD and offset to hub face in particular.
This is going to sound mental at first, but it's to figure out if it will be possible to mount a rear brake caliper on a front upright / hub carrier.
Clarification to...
As per the title, really. Does anyone know where to get new front knuckles from? I'm praying Renault still do them but am not looking forward to finding out prices! As far as I can see, GSF / ECP don't stock them.
ETA: Either 182 or 172 Cup version is fine.. I'm aware of the differences and...
Bonjour!
Possibly a long shot, but does anybody have (or is able to measure) the width of a 172 Cup* steering rack? That would be the distance between the inner tie rod ball joint centres.
Fingers crossed somebody has a rack and a tape measure in front of them.. you never know. :tonguewink...
Morning chaps..
I've read that the Cup front hubs are different to the standard 172 / 182, but does anyone know about the hub carrier / upright? Are the hardpoints (i.e. BJ hole, Tie Rod hole & Strut holes) all in the same place?
It doesn't strike me as something a cheap car company would do...
Was wondering whether anybody else had had problems with this, or if I'm being fed a load of BS..
I bought a brand new set of 15x7" Team Dynamics PR1.2 several weeks ago, and fitted them for the first time at Oulton Park on the 4th June. I had an absolutely miserable day, as the wheels came...
Evening all..
I know there are quite a few topics on this, but my 172 Cup has just failed on rear brake efficiency (RBT Service Brake Efficiency: 45%). I gather from all the old threads that there was a VOSA note to testers explaining that the Cups have poor rear braking, or something along...
Hello!
Last weekend I bought this very tidy little 172 Cup off a member:
It's my first Clio as I've always had 205 GTI's (currently own 2) but I have to say I absolutely love it! :D
With a bit of luck and TLC it'll serve as a good runabout and will also be used to compete in Series...
