was very very immpressed at how well the kit was made and how light it all is, as said in his ebay advert will save 16kg and around a kg in rotating mass...good times :approve:

So got the car booked in on a wedensday and drove off in his amazing courtesy car...1.0L Micra

picked the car up on Friday and drove it home :approve::approve::approve:

was very very immpressed at how much the revs seemed to pick up, car now feels so much more urgent through the whole rev range, and the loss of weight from front of the car has made a difference also

so much easier to change the aux belt now

here are some of the kit fitted to my ph 1

overall very impressed with the kit, and the service provided by nick top bloke and really knows his beans, have a look at some of the kit he has/is developing for his race car

in all very very happy with the kit and would recommend it if your looking at de-airconing your clio much easier than trying to hunt down a cup altenator and parts and it dont half look bad either

cheers nick

looks a great bit of kit! that's a fancy looking wiring loom you've got there!

 

[172Ben]

Just don't like how "exposed" the belt is. Probably just me and the way it looks. Obv won't cause any problems just look to open

think I'll still buy a kit tho Should still fit with ITB's the same I imagine, as the lower mount is below the inlet?

 

[Fred@BTM]

its no more exposed than a cup setup

 

[Soot1e]

It's so shiny! Let down by the rest of the engine.

 

[Tom@JMS]

Proper kit. Have you managed to get to the bottom of the low output yet mate?

 

[marinemackay2003]

ok its a dirty engine

polishing is for batty boys who dont spend enough time driving imo

yeah i hope i have tom

had a dying injector and the plugs didnt look to good so changed them all and feels a bit better

 

[Tom@JMS]

Cool, hope you get it sorted, just noticed that's not the ITB car - that was the one I was referring to - do you still have it?

 

[marinemackay2003]

can pop over your way ben if you want a closer look as pass your way most weekends

i never had an itb car tom......i very very nearly did, put a substantial deposit down on here for someone selling jenveys, then he pulled out and refunded my deposit .....pants

 

[172Ben]

Yes that would be awesome!

Just on the look out for a DCI rack now

Oh ok, my memory playing up. Is that the 421/Omex car that was at last SRR? Had a chance to get it rolled again?

 

[marinemackay2003]

yeah it was the 421s omex ph 1 when we were all at srr

made 172.0 and 150.0 torque

not roaded it just yet as toying with other options at the moment from a comany called jms?

 

[Tom@JMS]

Yeah that is low.

Won't touch them mate. They're monkeys. :clown:

 

[marinemackay2003]

was mapped at 185 from k-tec so hopefully fixed it but will wait see

just have to make it lighter hence getting the kit fitted :approve:

 

[chrispy.clio]

Oooooo i like that a lot. The kit is quite expensive though £350

But i suppose good parts dont come cheap.

Have you used the standard rack?

 

[gprs 172]

...this looks a fine kit ! really worth the trouble ?
i 've heard that by changing the pulleys you rev. easier but this causes vibration to the crank etc and maybe this will be dangerous for the engine!
sure is that this needs a balance with crank, flywheel etc...

 

[The_Notorious_C_A_T]

I just got this kit fitted a few days ago, seems a great bit of kit, and the garage who fitted it said it was a good bit of kit as well

 

[Andyman]

Why does the kit replace the crank pulley? Is it for cosmetic reasons or because its lightweight does it have a advantage over the OE Renault item?

Looks a good bit of kit. 16kg's is a fair old chunk of weight

 

[gez 172]

ive removed the a/c from my ph1, used all the parts off a clio cup. Noticed a difference, seemed to rev up better.
I bought a clio cup heater motor aswel though, so all the a/c was removed in the bulk head aswel.

 

[Fred@BTM]

can someone tell me why they supply cam seals/caps with the kit? changing the crank pulley you don't need to touch the cam seals?

crank pin in, buzz off the crank bolt, swap pulley screw bolt back on, done? or am i being dumb (says the trader that should know the answer, yes i've had a beer or 6)

It says on their fitting guide cams and crank need to be locked to change the crank pulley and bolt or the timing will be lost. Replacment cam seals as you'll need to take the original caps off for the Renault locking tool thing.

 

[chrispy.clio]

And fred are you not suppose to replace the crank bolt if you take it off?

 

[Fred@BTM]

actually thinking about it now, yes the cams need to be locked as when you angle tighten the crank bolt, if the cams aren't locked they could be pulled round

 

[pure-motorsport]

Come on Fred - wakey wakey!
As for crank bolt, the original is fine as long at it hasn't stretched to beyond 49.1mm if I remember correctly.
