I am looking for a set of Turini for my Mini Cooper S, and was wonder if the clio standard fit cup wheels had a renault specific centre bore, and if so are the cups the same 60.1mm as the non cups? Thanks Rich

Hi guys, Wondering what advise there is about. I bought the car and it has a Magnex Exhaust which is horrible an droney and also look ridiculous hanging out the back. Would this exhaust be for a 172 pahse 1 or 172 pahse 2. The only reason in asking is I am about to order a K-tec Stealth and...

Hi Thanks for the reply, not sure why it says I have an MX5 thought I updated that. SO in the end i bought a second hand ecu, uch, key and immobiliser halo. This sorted the problem and it started up first time. It then conked out again after a few minutes of driving, thought I might have...

Right, I have played with a lot of things today but after plugging a snap on solus in I am getting a reading that the immobiler is constantly on, the key, either key, will not turn it off. I am not getting a light on at all on the dash, I know the imobilser is on due to the fact I am not...

Need to remove it as I am checking everything as my imobiliser is on constantly.

I'm trying this as well, removed the 13 mm and also the one from fuse holder, still feels solid.

Do you think it would be fairly straight forward to remove. If I follow wires carefully etc, or should I get an alarm guy out to remove? I don't need an aftermarket alarm.

Anyone, what does no light at all mean? Need to get this sorted now. Thanks Rich

No immobiliser light at all. When I go to turn over the car the hazards flash once, and to be honest I never notice if the car did this before or not.

Hi guys, looking for some help please. Clio Phase 1 172, with what looks like a TOAD alarm fitted as well, there is a SIGMA alarm siren in the engine bay. My car recently decided to not start. I will start at the beginning and try not to leave anything out. Car st some point when driving...

Yep level ground.

Trying to set up my ride height before infer it aligned. The front is fine, however at the rear is a bit funny. One side is 15mm lower that the other side even though the height adjustable collars are the same height. I've set up quite a few coilovers before and never really came...

Anyone?

Right so driveshaft has really shag itself now, shakes the steering wheel and making so much noise I've taken it off the road. Do I need genuine Renault or not do people think? Need to order them asap. Thanks for all the replys so far, really helpful. Rich

I have realised that the cv joint on the inner and outer of the drivers side needs changing. Car is a phase 1 172 I have been doing some reading and am a little confused. I have read somewhere that the phase 1 and phase 2 driveshafts are the same but also read that they are different. I...

No I haven't checked that. Will have a look later, thanks.

Hi guys Haven't really posted much on here, been lurking and reading mainly. Car is a 172 non cup 2003 with 85,000 miles on it. Anyway my problem. I have changed suspension to GAZ coilovers, and installed PureMotorsport solid top mounts and also installed new lower ball joints both side as...

Re: phase 1 non sport steering wheel be used with the phase 1 airbag and horn arrange Scott you have a PM

Sorry about the long title. Basically phase 1 steering wheel is nackered. Having had a look around its impossible to find a good nick sport wheel. There are a few standard wheels about that have the air bag and horn as one unit rather than the airbag seperate to the two horn buttons like...

As above, I have 205 tyres now so would be great to find out with 205's fitted. Thanks

edit, delete this, found some threads, couldnt find them at first, sorry!

What are the size spacers people use to get the wheel out as far as possible? Mine seem quite far inset. Thanks Rich

What makes the 205 a better tyre then? Just ordered some Yokohama AD08 in the 205 size.

Ive been using megs stuff by hand and used claybars, cleaners, polishers and waxes but have just bought this lot yesterday. Also if anyone wants a decent cheap Pressure washer, look here, £29.99 for a 110bar 440L/h washer from Nilflisk, they get a lot of good reviews. Bought all the stuff from...

As above, looking to get some but want inspiration and something that matches a bit with the standard clocks. Thanks Rich

Need some new tyres, dont like the soft sidewall on the Toyo T1Rs' I currently have 195/50/15, thinking of going for a 205/50/15, anyone run this on a 7 inch wheel? I have Speedline 2118 wheels and its pretty low! Thanks Rich

Hi guys So i have 2 exhaust leaks on my car. The first is the rear of the cat to the mid pipe then the second is the mid pipe to the rear section. The cat to mid pipe section should fit together, it was pretty dirty, I cleaned it all up with a wire brush and sandpaper so it would fit together...

I saw this while looking at my leaking/blowing exhaust. What is this, looks like it should attach to the torsion bar! Looks like the clip has broken off. Thanks Rich

Looking to do the whole kit for peace of mind as I bought the car a few weeks ago, had the whole belts done 30,000 miles ago but not sure if the Dephaser was done, does this kit include the dephaser do you know, doesnt actually say! Thanks Rich...

They sound ok, just wondering what people think of them, wanting to get rid of my toyo T1R as I do not trust them in the wet. Thanks Rich
