Plenty of non sport owners on here. I remember when I attended Cliosport saturday a few years back there was quite a few non sports there too. Miss having my clio, not been back on here in a couple years :(

Out of interest how much would you charge to do a respray in the same colour ?

If you are doing the doors etc make sure you deaden the actual door cards, makes a massive difference

Go for the fk springs. I have them with the fk shocks, work very well together, plus the springs are progressive so its a lot comfier than the apex :)

Anybody on here ? Was in a traffic jam between junction 14 - 16 heading north ?

I agree, i bought fk uprated shocks direct from them, cost about £7.50 each at the time. Matched them with some 60mm fk lowering springs, it drives lovely but if i had bought the coilovers i could adjust the front slightly to make the stance perfect

Its a 1.2 ron :)

Have you tried greasing up bushes ? That might help

My car :)

yeah thats what i was thinking, hopefully with a bit extra camber it should handle better too. Thanks for the help mate :)

Yeah i had been reading around and thats the only thing i can think off besides slowing down a lot ( im not driving like a loon but where its has less roll now it holds the corner better, when you really push it it understeers a bit, i think thats down to the outside edge though ) i should...

camber isnt ajustable, i know they set the toe bang on standard settings ( i dont know the settings myself but they are reputable renault specialists so i believe them when they said they set it bang on, not within tolerances as they took an hour near enough to do it, they took it out on the...

i never got a print out. work was done at twotechs in dartford, they fitted the suspension and done the tracking along with new top mounts and a dogbone mount. would it be wise to get a laser print out alignment done and check camber values etc are correct ?

pressures are at 32psi all round. yeah now you said it i might be taking corners a bit quicker ( roundabouts etc ) where im slightly stiffer and less body roll. you think it might be down to me taking corners quicker ? if so if i was to add a little camber up front would it help the tyres...

On my 1.2 16v ( 2003 ) the front tyres have started eating the outer egde, had all four tyres replaced christmas when i upgraded to 172 wheels, since then i have lowered the car 60mm on fk uprated fk shocks and springs ( 30% stiffer ) had all the alignment done when fitted and took it back a...

i think its more down to the rear axle position/ length on the non sport that causes it

If they are the same offset as your standard wheels they wont rub, but if they are the same as 172 wheel offset they will rub slightly at the back

172 wheels will rub on the inner arch at the back due to the offset, you need at least 25 mm spacers on the back to cure it, saves fuel too lol

if you're going up to 195/45/R16 then theres only about 1% difference in diameter

i have 15mm spacers all round on my non sport ( standard wings etc ) and it fills the gap but i think i can get another 5 - 10mm , with the sport arches i think you will need more than 15mm

yeah would make it easier lol. you could stick spacers on but i'm not sure what size you would need, maybe 25mm ? might be best to get all the bumpers on erc then see how much arch gap you have

if you have a whole car as a donor why not use the rear axle and front driveshafts etc and do a wide track conversion ? should solve some of the arch gap for you

get a drawing pin, heat it up with a lighter and poke it into the male part,wait for it to cool then pull it out. simples

Totally unrelated but yes, might need spacers due to offset to stop rubbing

Yep There the ones i have on mine with 60mm lowering springs, come to about £57 delivered

hahaha my bad Every other non sport ive been in has a slighty different/ larger wheel than mine, could that be down to dynamique/exlression differences ?

going on this thread then i have a sport steering wheel in my non sport, came like it when i bought it :)

Oh i think i know what ones you mean, have you got a full torx set ? in my halfords jobbie i had one that fitted them, but i cant remember the exact size pal, sorry :(

If you are talking abiut the massive bolts in the boot which hold the bar down use a spanner, they're not easy mate

Yeah its like a really long bar that slides in and fits over the plug and pulls it out when its loose. where are you located ? i bought one ages ago and more than happy to let you use it ( i live in dartford )
