got it down to 506.10 by adding my old dear on my privilege quote.

ok will do, thanks chris.

Hi, I'm 21 and have 4 years NCB. Cheapest company I have found so far is Priviledge. I have a Liquid Yellow Cup with value at £9000 and Fully Comp I got quoted £642.60. I am looking around because my renewal from Adrian Flux came in at £1243 which I thought was a big P!SS TAKE. It also...

i normally drive braintree way on the weekend as i go fishing sometimes in Greater leigh i think its called, its on the way to freeport basically and i come from rayleigh! Oh and i have a LY 182.

i've had my LY for about 2 months now. wasn't even suppose to be buying a car, it caught my eye in the dealers while driving along so i pulled over and test drove it and the traded in my alfa 147 and drove out in the clio! lol

My 182 is at 30.8mpg its alsways between 30-31mpg! i very rarely do motorways and when i do it goes up to about 34mpg.

Are there any reliability issues with the k-tec turbo conversion that people have experianced or any issues with say something like the gdi cam package? I don't think the cam package would make much difference to reliability but i've heard good and bad things about different cams in these engines.

coilovers you can customise to your own taste by height and stiffness etc, i.e so if you go on track you can stiffen everything up etc. With a sports kit, i.e springs and dampers then you can't alter it, it will drop the car a certain height and will be a certain stiffness. So basically...

I don't mind speaking to people but all i am basically interested in is racing, Slowest car i had was my fiesta zetec s, but even that had nitrous! lol The VW made loads of induction noise but didn't have any go even with the tiny wheels, looked pretty cool though i thought, not my cup of tea...

182 benefits from a 4-2-1 manifold and a 200cell cat rather that 300 cell, thats basically where the power improvements are. Its all down to personal choice though, you also have a twin exhaust on the 182 or if you prefer stealth then you cant see the exhaust on the 172.

i would go for a 182 coz if your stripping it then they will weight the same anyway, the 182 you have a little more power, the 182 cup suspension has wider track and mor camber etc, therfore should be better around track. if you wern't stripping it then i would have gone for 172 cup.

maybe next meet should be at santa pod RWYB drag racing, corsa vs clio, would be a good laugh, no matter what engine size. or maybe a trackday would be better as thats not all down to power. Oh and i wasn't being ignorant, its just i turned up to talk about cars as thats what the meet was...

you booted it to 36mph? easy tiger!!!!!! Sorry i couldn't resist!

My insurance is up for renewal in october, i will be 21 with 4 ncb. I have always had high powered modified cars and i switched to my clio half way through the policy so i dont know how much it was for the whole year! I have always been with flux though. How much people reckon i should pay...

try adrian flux and see what they say as a quote and that would probably be a good base line. they dont charge extra for visual mods, i.e wheels, bodykits, tints. but they do charge for any item that increases performance.

mine on crunches when shifting too quickly for the box from 1st to 2nd! its fine if i give it another half a second changing gear!

i wave whenever i see a good looking girl! but thats just me! lol

check exhaust manifold gasket.

I might come, would be my first meet too. I'm not a definate though! I have a standard 182 in liquid yellow at the mo, I am going to do a few bits to it over the winter though to make it look a bit differen't as i hate having the same as someone else!

someone might correct me but i think they are the same. I think k-tec use the rs-tuning remap or something, i havent looked too much into it but thats what i can recall off of the top of my head!

i've got a nissan 200sx on 18's and they don't slow it down, they make it quicker coz i can actually get grip on the tarmac, its got a full tein suspension kit which makes it lower and a full bodykit...i spose you think thats chav? oh and my 18's are lightweight drift wheels! I also have a...

i have people trying it on constantly, i think the fact mines yellow makes it a bit more lairy, if i am driving normally then i just ignore someone sitting up my arse, if i have gone out for a fun drive then i will have a play! I dont let people entice me! 99% i am driving for fun though as i...

so what is the difference with this new exhaust compared to the old ktr/janspeed on there site which is £295+vat whereas the new one is £345+vat.

good vid for learners, smooth=fast and slow into a corner means fast out of a corner.

i think the spec r has 250bhp. but standard they have same engines as the s14/s14a its called sr20det. standard there wont be much difference between the s15 (197bhp) and clio in a straight line.

what you have got to think of though is not power figures, just think if you are happy with the cars speed, if not then make it quicker but only modify it to what you feel comfortable with, there no point taking it to 200bhp if you enjoy the car as it is!

i believe the 172's had a 400cell cat and the 182's have a 200cell cat. Someone will correct me if i am wrong as i havent had my clio long!

mine whistles at the join too.

for a 182 i think its about £40 from miltek.

if your car is even slightly moving you should always use second, it wont stall. If you have trouble putting it in 1st when stationary try double pressing the clutch. if your stationary you have all the time in the world so just depress the clutch twice and see if it makes a difference.
