second hand is the best bet in terms of value.

Mine was also making creaking sounds when idling, soon as the clutch pedal was pressed the creaking stopped. You'll find it is the clutch release bearing on its way out! Had mine done last week by Andy Greer at clioturbo and it is fine since.

I've read on another forum that there is no track time or anything like that?

70mm internal dia, buy an 'ASH' hose.. Seemed to have the right leg lengths either side of the bend to get away with just buying one 90 degree section. About 15 pounds iirc

U clamps are not up to the task. You need a stainless steel Mikolar type clamp.

Not sure if you've used these already but Renault made an 'updated' centre mount and is a red colour.

Looks smart Yeah the clutches are pretty heavy, nothing unusual there.

A girls opinion of a car is entirely based on its age, they'd rather have a 14 plate Audi A1, over a 55' Mercedes Benz 300 SLR.

Unless we did it on the 9th.. Wheyyyyy!

I've been told I'll be away at Sea now! Sickner! Have a good one lads.

Have to be in London getting a visa, sickner!

Shame about the rain eh!

I'll be there if work haven't sent me away by then!

The Clio looks a lovely car but.. that saxo is pretty unreal, it's a tough decision

Kinda wanted a rapid response, I'll wait till Monday then

Before I start its not the usual Phase 1 Vs V6 box thread.. Its about the rubber strap to hold it in place, Can I still buy this part from Renault? Pretty sick of waiting around for one to come up, then loosing out on it! Cheers

I would probably look into re-spraying that passenger door! Looks good for the money though, enjoy it.

Spending 2200 then spending 600 on getting belts/dephaser etc done isn't stupid at all, its called peace of mind that you know its definitely been done and done by someone with a know-how with these engines which is essential!

Hi, Its most likely touching the ARB.

I chose the Michelin Pilot Sport 3's, you don't get a great deal of choice with 195's but they are more than fine for me.

No spacers is the last thing you need if its touching there.. My only suggestion is stretch the front tyres ever so slightly? And possibly run Camber adjustable bolts. Though with standard top mounts there won't be much in terms of camber.

Hi, me and a few lads are well up for this! I'll keep my eye on this thread for any updates on how to pay etc.

Throw out the s**t U-clamps they provide and stump up for a stainless steel mikolar style exhaust clamp.

Right for anyone who uses the search bar about this issue, my car passed on Saturday with an OMP wheel and the Maplins resistors no issues.

Aren't some Kangoo's 4x4 to? That would be interesting or would cobbling the 172 motor to the Kangoo's box be too hard.

I hope not! Mines going in tomorrow for an MOT with an OMP wheel, but my light is off (resistors).

This is incredible! Hats off to you for being so pro-active, hope you get some ideas on what to do with fuelling I wanna see this on some rollers! I hope the sound isn't the Charger needing a refurb though!

I really enjoyed mine, well refined and did instill vast confidence with the brembo's! Biggest positive is its ease to drive, and the fact its very easy to drive fast! Lacked the rawness of the earlier models though, and the fuel is around 10mpg worse! To be honest if I was to own another it...

Just re-assemble using nylon threaded nuts next time?
