this is somewhat modified. Belongs (or belonged) to J3NED off here.

I lowered it last week 30mm springs. Made a big difference, much harder ride. I also have a K&N filter induction kit and soon gonna install a tuning box. Next up, im putting on an OMP exhaust box. :evil:

Brock · Oct 13, 2005

The thing is AJM that cars here are very expensive. I could have bought your clio sport for what I spent on mine! It cost £11000!! Im tellin you its ridulous here! Its so pissing off! :banghead:

Im trying to get one down from the Uk but there is a lot of importation tax (although we are a EU country).

Brock

Hellcat · Oct 13, 2005

where abouts are you from mate?

Brock · Oct 13, 2005

Im from Malta, just below siciliy. Small Island! Have you heard of it?

Turkish · Oct 13, 2005

I've heard of it, i would imagine most people have tbh.

Brock · Oct 13, 2005

Yep Looney, everybody has the turdo diesel hatch! Was even worse is that you can only buy the 65bhp version!

I got all the xtras I could get on mine and am trying to make it look as sporty as possible. Future plans are for the 182 but £19200 new in Malta. Possibly a good second from the UK.

The alloy wheels and lowering the car made it look very sporty!

Brock · Oct 13, 2005

By the way what do you mean by TBH??????? lol

Sorry........

Turkish · Oct 13, 2005

TBH = to be honest.

£19,200 ouch!! talk about going in dry.

The Hoff · Oct 13, 2005

TBH = To be honest

Don't worry hes such a malt(teas)a ;P

Brock · Oct 13, 2005

Hehe!! Cheers for that! hehe I thought Turbo diesel hatch TDH!! hehe

Good 1 ozz

Yeah mate im maltese living in a country were its expensive to buy clios!!! Damn! Im drivin my woman crazy!! hehe

So anyways, like I said im trying to do mine up!!! Will post a few pictures next week when I spray some parts!

Although I dont have a clio sport I have two friends of mine who have great lookin ones. In fact this weekend I should be going to the quarter mile track and will get some videos and pictures to post!! I went last week in the 172bhp and we flew, wish I had my cam!

Brock

Hellcat · Oct 13, 2005

yeh im off to New Zealand next week and clios over there are stupidly priced. £13,000 for a 172 which works out to about £22k when you take exchange rate and wages into account.

Brock · Oct 13, 2005

To make matters worse, its hard to get insurance. Plus its quite expensive. I got a quote on a second hand clio sport 172 valued at 12.8K and it would cost me £1104 per year full comprehensive, 25 years old.

I guess i'll have to wait until im better off

. Some day im gonna have my hot hatch!!!!!

Brock

Ali · Oct 13, 2005

I tell you what i'll help you find a decent 2nd hand RS we'll roadtrip over to sunny malta and i get a free wk's holiday! lol...anything to get away from this weather. i paid 7k for my 172, 11k miles and 3yrs old...

Brock · Oct 13, 2005

Hehe! fine with me, I got a speedboat, so if you come down we'll do some wakeboarding!!!!!!! Lots of nice women too and clubs here!!!! especially in summer

I would have to add a minimum of £4800 importation tax! aaahhhhhhhh

Cheers

Brock

Brock · Oct 14, 2005

Thanks Sirus!

By the way, did the electronic box you installed make a difference ? 20bhp + or was is not worth the expense because no real major difference was felt?

Have a good weekend end!

Cheers

Yes U really feel it. Especially in the lower gears like second and third, it really feels faster. Chiptuning really brings power in dci's. But look after serious offers, a lot of these cheap chips/electronic boxes only destroy your engine instead of giving you more power.
The only thing else is, a box / chip only increases your acceleration but not your top speed.
