just not used to seeing tsw wheels on jap cars bet they are quite heavy too

thanks bud so that and hopefully fitting my steering wheel will be Saturdays jobs :) and also painting up the horrid engine bay anyone know where I can buy a boss kit and a good place for quality heat proof paint

was under the car today the exhaust is in a shocking state but found it has relatively new rear shocks and what look like spax springs all round so something to sell on when I find the coil overs I want another annoying problem is it sits at 2k rpm unless you blip the throttle then it will sit...

ohh damn :( why didn't I go jap again lol then I could have my preferred hsd's best coilovers iv ever used for the money, I doubt hsd will make me some for the Clio so I guess I will go bilstein eventually

someone's selling the spax ones on here not sure how good they are on these arb's I will go for whiteline ​

hey done a bit of checking see standard 172 wheels are 4x100pcd 60.1mm bore and 16x7 et38 will 16x8 et20's fit if not how much work is needed? http://www.rotashop.co.uk/rota-gridv-16-8-4x100mm-et20-bronze-single-rim_p23363957.htm these ones :) ​ offset calculator says il have 5mm more...

done

y reg 2001

I shall put up pics later but it has kinda smoked back lights and yeah gave them vin number and reg said it was definitely a mk2 phase 2 originally why is the phase 2 front end cheaper?

Renault said definitely sold as phase 2 it is on a y plate what I presume happened was the panels got damaged and it worked out cheaper to fit a whole phase 1 front end ​aslong as the performance parts off each fit thats all I care about :)

phoned Renault its a 172 but not a cup its a phase 2 as well but it has a phase 1 front end I checked its never been recorded damaged and underneath everything is straight and original no signs of overspray ect im quite confused by it so im going to put all the phase2 bits on it and get it...

yeah its got the Renault sport half leathers and yeah tbh £480 isn't that bad it needs hardly any work interior is good paint needs a good polish all it needs is an engine mount and the exhaust fitting correctly it bangs against the floor maybe s**t rubbers thats all it failed mot on will be...

think mine is last of the phase one

definite 172

well I want everything upraded tbh and any links to the brakes side of things would be great shame my dad just broke a 406 with brembos but my brother stole them for his 106 :(

p.s understeer sucks !!!! but any performance upgrade ideas would be good as would suspension upgrading ideas need to make it handle better
