I have been thinking about it. May book it in the next couple of days if i can go

You can add me to the list :up:

Yeah its just a metal plate with two holes in for the gauges that ive fit into the existing clock surround thats been cut out.

I went to have a look at the cambelt the other day, as i checked it a while ago whilst trying to diagnose another fault. I used the proper Renault timing tools to check it so i knew that it was out but now i know why. This is what i found: Tippex! everywhere! it was also all over the crank...

We are able to offer the parts you need to install an oil pressure & temperature gauge. We do the gauges, and the parts to fit them, using a sump plug adaptor for the temp and a t-piece for the pressure gauge. I have them both set up in my Clio and they work perfectly. The parts we do can be...

Just a small update as not much has been going on since the trackday. I had to replace the power steering pressure switch as it was leaking fluid everywhere and making a right mess! As it was a right pain to get to i had to improvise with the tools that i had to hand: It worked well and done...

A little compilation of the trackday i did a couple of weeks ago of the sliding around on the damp Rockingham track

I've put together a few bits of the track day of me sliding around in the morning. It was very slippery, which, I expect didn't help with the choice of tyres I had on the car - Goodyears on the front and ditch-finders on the rear! It was a great way to find out how the car handles due to the...

Better late than never! Ive got some of the photos at Rockingham uploaded: The first session in the morning was sooooo slippery. It was like driving on ice and the car was very tail happy but it was so easy to control, very impressed with the car and how it went throughout the day...

They cost £28 delivered from Renault Thanks. It took me ages to work out where to put them as i wanted to put them in a place where i could remove them without defacing the dash. Also they were easy to wire up where they are.

A small update: Ive booked a trackday at Rockingham on Sunday. Ive been there quite a few times, but never been round the track so it should be a good laugh. Its also going to be the first time i will have driven the car in any anger so hopefully i checked everything and it all stays together...

Thanks. Yeah its something that needs doing even tho they cost that much. I think it'll make the difference in the end.

I have now created a project thread for my car here: http://www.cliosport.net/threads/grants-clio-172-cup.781768/

Right, I’ve decided to get a project thread going. I have already got some photos of the car so far in the Media part of the forum but I’m going to start this as its going to be an ongoing project. This is where the car stands at the moment: I brought the car just over a year ago with about 68k...

I did my inlet manifold and fuel rail guard in matt black with the silver Renaultsport: I think it comes out really well!

I have! It does look good i must admit. Its in the list of things to do :up:

Thanks. Just used a normal can of halfords matt black. Got through almost an entire can doing the manifold to get the best covering i could.

Today i did a little tidy up to the engine bay. It used to look like this: Now it looks like this: Think it looks so much better

Thanks chaps. Theres a bit of work to do but its getting there :up:

Washed the cup today using some AutoFinesse goodies i got this week. Thanks to @Auto Finesse for the quick delivery! Thought id take some photos as it took ages to do. This is what i used: And the Results:

I ordered 4 cup shocks for my 172 cup yesterday and they were about £33 each from Renault Wolverhampton :up:

Thanks chaps. The idea is to keep it looking as standard as i can. @George@RTR_Parts I will be wanting some brakes soon so i shall be dropping you a message when money allows!

Hi everyone I have been on the forum for a while now but I havn't put anything up and I thought it was about time to change that. I bought the car last year and have had a mixed experience with it to say the least. It came with a full service history with dephaser and cambelt done – which was...
