shocks seem to be ok with the springs then again they are 14 years old so they might not last too long tho. was surprised how easy the back torsion bar was to lower :) have heard some people having loads of trouble getting them out i was lucky
Well i finally took my finger out of my bum and got to work on the clio,
Before....

This has to be one of the stupidest places to park ive ever seen, was staying in a hotel in dublin at the weekend and parked in the carpark, checked out next day to find this, i mean how could anyone think thats a sensible place to leave the car lol, mad oh and even better it had L plates to top...
Ops i dont think i explained properly last time lol, what i ment by taking the silencers out was take off the middle section, chuck it away and replace it with pipe right upto the bk box, like this, its not a "bodge"
lookie
my clock and heater controls dont light up :( changed all the bulbs and then changed the whole unit and fuse lol still nothing, must be dodgy wire, i gave up in the end lol
sorry for the late reply havent been on in a while, thats all a stright thru pipe is, an exhaust with no silencers :) i made some vids and took some pics today ill send you them on msn tomorrow
mine is a 1.4 fidji (carb instead of spi) not an rt and with decat etc i still get around 95 - 100 miles per 10er driving normal, and about 85ish driving it hard, my old rt got a bit less but not much

no its joined by a clamp to the center pipe just at the back passenger wheel, but to get the universal box on you have to take off the back section (from back wheel back) then cut off the std back box then weld the universal box to whats left of the back box pipe then just clamp it back onto the...
was just a universal back box, yea it clamps to the middle section at the back passenger wheel (normally blows out at this joint) but it has to go over the back axel first all they do is take off the whole section and more or less cut the old box off and put the new box onto the back box pipe if...
got the scorpion back box from a m8 for 20 quid!, the fidji has no cat :) just has 2 silencers so no need for a decat :D ive only 1 vid ill try and get it off my phone and post it :) ill make some tomorrow
on my last clio i had the twin scorpion back box with decat but left the silencers in that sounded nice and wasnt too loud.
pic here..
Ive the same model as you now, the back box on this one is a tiger (big), rest of the exhaust is just ss pipe, i was going to leave the silencers on again but...
I tried one off a 19 its not exactly the same, ended up i just got it off the dealer for £43 instead of £52 made a massive difference to the car :) one last question, will i be able to put on this k&n kit? part number 56-9042? its for an xr2 but bolt spacing etc is supposed to be the same, its a...
Got a price for a new one off my renault stealer, £52.72 inc vat! for a chunk of rubber lol. looks like its going to be a scrapyard jobby and if i cant find a clio a ren 19, if anyone happens to have one lying about (i doubt it but worth a try lol) send me a pm
