Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

The Cup still has the rear doors but seeing as there is a roll cage they are surplus to requirment's.

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

That'll be the day. 50hp from a remap? Lol

Yep, Megane 250 maps to 300bhp without any other mods.

Clio might map to less I guess as its a smaller engine and possibly a smaller turbo?

I think in spite of that 215 at 220hp will be possible only with a remap and especially without dangers & risks for the engine and the gearbox

After 230hp or + , hum i'm not sure for that the set remains reliable...

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

I can believe the Meg does, but the clio would never, small 1.6 small turbo.

My brothers corsa vxr is a stage 2 with full exhaust, filter, Fmic, stage 2 bluefin map and it's around 230-240.

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

^ agree. Looks tha shizz boi,

wasnt impressed with paris show pics but those cup ones have totally changed my mind. Looks very aggressive in those shots. Aslong as its got potential to look like that i would have one

Im sure itl be a riot stock power. But 220bhp+ would be nice!

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Hopefully clios from now on will actually produce there claimed power and maybe more if you go by the meganes rr results

Why does the Cup racer have 1mm shut lines on the rear doors, number plates, headlights, and LED daytime running lights?

Because it was a badly, rushed promo photo.

People who think that that is a race car, mmmmm.

The Mini FJCW has a 1.6T and can be reliably tuned to 270bhp with only a larger FMIC, remap and de-cat. No doubt the Clio lump will be the same, providing it can handle the power hike.

With its rally engines 1.6L Turbo (the "same base" of commercial cars) Peugeot-Citroen say possible to have 400hp with good reliable for the engine & the car so yes it's possible ...

BUT the problem is for the rest of the parts and the gearbox for example

Put 270hp on a Clio 4RS with its semi-auto gearbox is pure madness without change or strengthen the gearbox for example if you want to take advantage of the save power gain

And in your "BMW-MINI" it is the same thing by the way, your gearbox and the rest of your car aged and worn much faster now...

208 rallye?

[Munson]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Maybe if they give it a round steering wheel.

I'm not joking. It's not just the the pics. The 208 has an oval steering wheel.

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

This would have been a great looking car in 3 doors

The potential is all there, but it somehow is lacking any visual drama, maybe when we see the first ones on coilovers and 18" turinis with that cup spoiler on I'll change my mind a bit...but....4 doors arrghh

 

[Munson]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

5.

 

[Tunst]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

I personally cannot wait to have a drive of this... I dont see the issue with 5 doors personally.. Have to say though im not a fan of it in LY

 

[Munson]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Most people are just eager to find a reason to hate it before they've even seen it.

alot of people tend to jump on the band wagon these days.. Renault are taking a step forward with the DSG box, I bet alot of opinions will change once they have driven it

 

[Tim-182]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Surely less weight, more power and as good as a chassis as they've done before can only equal a winner, the gearbox is the only thing that could go tits up i think.

I will definitely look at test driving one

And why is the the Clio 200 EDC, what is EDC?

 

[The Fatty]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Does this mean in a few years time we can stop having to use the clutch in forza as i suck at it lol

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

EDC = Efficient Dual Clutch

+1

and i'm an example of that

I was this previous weekd-end at the World Series Renault on the track of Paul Ricard (SE of France in Le Castellet) and Renault exposed this last Clio 4 (not the RS version but the "normal")

And if I dont liked the forms of this new Clio 4 before, seing pics and videos on the web and newspapers, now I saw it IRL I find it more attractive (even with its 5 doors ^^) than of what I thought before

It has harmonious, well-balanced forms and which are well with the whole car

And inside it's very classy <3

Photos of the Clio 4 I made this previous weekd-end at the WSR 2012 in the Paul Ricard track

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Still not sure.

 

[Munson]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Definitely not keen on those stupid trimmings on the door bottoms, but with a bit of imagination, it's easy to see that without them, the car would look very much like an MPV.

 

[Clio 2 RS Minicup]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Hum ... I think you say that because your eyes are still used to see the Clio 2RS & the Clio 3RS BUT like say "Depeche Mode" in an old song of the 80's ^^ : "it's a question of time" like usually for you too and like I said you dont see IRL this clio 4, so ;-)

AND NOW LADIES & GENTLEMEN the last pics from the "Paris Motors Shows" of the Clio 4RS !! ^^

And the colors possible in the start

 

[czechplastik]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

That actually looks decent in those photos.

 

[Munson]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Orange looks nice. Are those Renault images? The car is sitting 100mm lower than the motorshow one.

 

[Hixle]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

I like it from the direct front view and from the side, but at an angle it looks all wrong.

 

[Jaff.]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Orange and blue look ok. Still doesn't take away the fact it looks terrible from the front and the back though

 

[aucky]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Rear profile: I like
Side profile: I like
Front profile: vomit. everywhere.

 

[Adamm.]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Certain angles it looks really really nice I think.

Then sometimes it just look wrong.. Look forward to seeing one in the flesh.

 

[Hixle]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

I still can't get over the size of the bloody headlights.

 

[Clio 2 RS Minicup]

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

Personnaly more I see current pics more I like it, ...like usually lol

As I said it's just a question of time ^^


I like especially this, we feel here the character "Sport and Nervous" of the new little-big bomb from RS BECAUSE IT IS AND IT KEEP A RS CAR never forget that ! ;-)

Re: CLIO IV RS for 2013, Last news

The silver diffuser looks really s**t.
