I found something I had stashed away in my lockup this evening......completely forgot I had it to be honest. Now this 'something' I believe was intended for a Clio Cup race car although I might be wrong. It's got JASA embossed in it and is in a box that has the name Jasa Engineering on it...

Has anyone got the wiring diagrams for the following switches... Central Locking Hazard Lights Rear Window De-Mist Central Locking Thanks in advance. Cheers Lee

Got a Ph2 172, never had a problem with starting etc until last weekend. Got in it after it being sat in my lockup as usual for a week, put key in, turned it - nothing. Red immobiliser light flashing - so presumeably immobiliser isnt turning off. So far I've changed the transponder ring & the...

Can someone please take a picture of the rear of the alternator thats fitted in a 172/182 engine bay and include in the picture the aircon pipes fitted into the air con pump if possible too - then post it up here. Many thanks Lee

Bit of a strange one this..... Coming back from the Pod on Sunday evening, was giving the car a bit of stick round the back country roads near mine - everything was running sweet, next minute there was a car ahead of me so I slowed right down....went round a fairly modest left hand bend.....and...

Last time I did this I took the whole engine & box out in one. This time however I have my ramps so I'm going for the 'out the bottom method' Reckon an hour or so & it should be out.....or is that wishful thinking?! Cheers Lee

.....I'm suspecting not but here goes anyway!!! Approximately 1000miles ago I had a Gripper Diff fitted into my 172 gearbox by a company (they shall remain nameless unless they mess me about). Now I have done exactly one track day with it fitted & the rest of the miles are road miles. Recently...

Anyone know whos car this used to be??? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BREAKING-RENAULT-CLIO-172-2-0-16V-2001-MODEL-PARTS_W0QQitemZ370144201919QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item370144201919&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=66%3A2|65%3A10|39%3A1|240%3A1318 :eek::eek::eek::eek:

Decided I really should give her a wash seeing as she doesnt very often get one.....so I froze my ass off giving her a quick going over....I must say she looks much better when clean! LOL! :cool::cool:

As above Guy driving with maahoosive WAG style sunglasses - think you had a couple of passengers. I came past you in a Blue 56 plate X5. Your exhaust is whonky & needs straightening mate!LOL! :rasp::rasp::rasp::rasp:

Well....picked up my coilovers for my Clio yesterday so I rushed home to fit them as you do.... Got them on fine no probs.... Then I reverse off the ramps.....and off the concrete slab and I hear a little scrape so I thought best check.... Ok....so its a bit close but only just touching so...

.....ok not a Clio project but it will certainly help me when my 172 breaks!!! LOL! This was all done over a series of about 4 weeks hence some of the random comments about today/tomorrow etc. Decided it was about time I got my arse into gear & got concrete laid in my lockup so that I can erect...

Bit of a strange one this... Drove to Coventry last night, car drove mint no problems at all. Parked it up round the back of my mates house left it there until around 10am this morning. Started it up & for some bizarre reason it was idling at 3000rpm!! Drove down the road to see if it would...

Anybody on here......I had a bit of a play with it on my way to Coventry this evening for a good few miles of the motorway....you werent shaking me though were ya!!! :rasp::rasp: You peeled off to go on toll road & I took the cheapskate option and stayed left!! Looked over to give you a nod &...

Went to a VAG Rolling Road day at Awesome GTI today - took my Bora 110TDI & cheekily managed to wangle my Clio 172 track toy on for a few runs as well!! Engine spec - Standard 172 internalled engine, 182 manifold, decat, Magnex stainless system, pipercross foam induction kit, aircon pump...

...in its current guise as of today - ready for Wednesdays track day at Oulton Park!! Hope people approve!? ;);) Still lots to do to get it exactly how I want it, but the next few bits will get done after winter now!! :D

Is it a 75AMP unit - Valeo part number TG8S017?? Cheers Lee ;)

Just finished putting my engine & box back in my Phase 2 172. Plumbed all the pipework back in & electrical connections, fuses etc. Went to start it.....but the red immobiliser light wont go out - so obviously it doesnt start. Is there anyway of resetting it? Is there any way of bypassing it...

Removing Air-Con Pump......my alternative method!!! Here you go guys....heres a cheap & easy way of removing your air con pump... Basically consists of new Saab pulley, 1400mm 6 Rib belt, modded cosworth alternator bracket & a 172 non air con alternator (I'm sure I could of used the original...

.....and it appears I can either go with Helix or Alcon paddle clutch......someone correct me if I'm wrong here please. I believe I'd heard good things about the Alcon paddle but not sure who could supply me with one. Helix paddle is around the £340 mark I think from Yozzasport. It is...

Hi guys... Can one of you knowledgeable people please tell me if a clutch off a new Clio 197 will fit a PH2 172 please? I'm thinking maybe because they use the same bottom end dont they? Anyone in the know....could let me know? Cheers Lee

...any chance someone can stick a picture on here - looking down into their 172 engine bay - preferably without the fuel rail cover attached so I can see the oil filter and the very left of the radiator if that makes sense. I'd have a look my self only my engine is out of the car! LOL! Cheers...

Can someone with experience tell me what the oil temperatures are like on a throttle bodied 172 on track on a hot summers day with or without a cooler fitted?? Unsure whether a 16 row oil cooler is going to be overkill or whether to go with a 13 row. Cheers Lee

:rasp::rasp::rasp::rasp::rasp:

...with a female driving it I think - not sure as the windows were slightly tinted. 182 Alloys, lowered - looked quite nice actually!! Cliosport sticker in the back window....anyone off here??

Where is the cheapest place to get one from people - direct from Jenvey? Other Distributor? What about Chadil? Anyone else manufacturer them? Cheers Lee

Whilst the engine is out I think I'm going to remove the AC pump as I've no need for it being there - after all its just taking up space & zapping a couple of bhp whilst its at it! LOL! Am I correct in thinking I'll just need a shorter belt & different tensioner to achieve this. Anyone got any...

Finally found the time and motivation to get the gearbox out of the track toy today. 2 reasons - one to find out why my clutch had suddenly started slipping & also because I need to get my gripper diff fitted to the box & get it overhauled at the same time! I decided the best thing to do was to...
