I have been on the forum a little too long (about 16/17 years) have owned multiple clio's and have been building one for about the past 8-10 years so I am not here to pull a fast one... ha. I am however posting a bit of a shameless plug. (There was a previous thread, but since starting 21ten...

HELP NEEDED. With the rebuild of the car happening shortly I am thinking about replacing a lot of the Nuts/bolts etc etc. Is anyone aware of a comprehensive list of what I would need throughout the car? Car is a phase 1 172

Being a well educated bunch and also into your automobiles it would be good to hear anyones knowledge of good/great car adverts from say the past year, can be any car from a panda to a paganni (sp), can be english or foreign. Post them in here.

A message for the owner of the black 182 (black turinis) that was following me from Northampton to Milton Keynes via salcy forest/hanslope earlier this evening. 1. I can see you in the early evening without the need for your xenons. 2. You don't need to accelerate up behind me then back off...

Thought i'd pop this in here as a fair few people don't go in the projects section. It turns out that our new next door neighbour is an engineer specialising in aluminium products for motorsport, working with a lot of F1 teams machining products such as brackets but also producing heads and...

if you have cut away the whole of your inner door skin, surely you don't need the CUP RACER SPACERS???

after some knowledge if possible, i looked at the guide above but was no clearer (guides been deleted and there is just 2 links). I am trying to sort the GF's iPhone 3G, she was kindly donated it so it is free of any Apps. however we cannot upload any apps to it, i take it this is because of it...

..thats all i can describe it as, sounds like a clunk from the front suspension somewhere... see below: the whole set-up has been spanner checked the car recently went through an MOT without any issues the car has had new Track rods, Track rod ends the noise happens when just moving away or...

Does anyone know if the upper gearbox mount on the DCi's are the same as 172's?

spotted you stuck in the jam on the M25 tonight about 8ish before you shot off down the M4 i think, low, recessed exhaust, sat on turinis, looked nice, would of wound down the window and said hello, you just looked like you were enjoying your reflection too much

for a phase 1 172, i need to know the width of the wheel base (front and rear) if possible, and then even better, the measurement between the inner of the front / rear tyres the measurement between the outer of the front / rear tyres

so i am looking at putting a set of PH2 172 wheels on my DCi, pretty sure i already know the answer to my first question, but not the second. 1. will these wheels go on no problem at all? ie, no rubbing anywhere? 2. what about if i fit the whole widetrack set-up from a 172 aswell? (see below)*...

can you put 15" lower spec wheels on the ph1 172??? the wheels in question are from the 1.2, 1.4, 1.6 or dci models the reason i ask is because i know the 15" OZ f1's only just skim the callipers on the ph1 172 and i am sure there is more meat on the lower spec wheels

I am currently working away from home during the week and upon leaving yesterday i could hear the usual Wheel bearing noise when they decide to go, with the thought of doing another 200 miles on it before i could ge it looked at i turned around, switched cars and got the gf to take it to a local...

i have entertained this thought before, but always persevered, but now i seem to be at this point and unsure what to do... i thought i would open it up to the masses for an opinion, i know at the end of the day its my decision but getting others people views sometimes helps... so i have had my...

bit hit and miss if the cs peeps will know but worth a try.... i intend to service my DCi 80 friday morning, first up can anyone advise on any potential problems i could come across that could deviate from a nice easy service...... ie usual issues etc... any tips etc anyways are more than...

This afternoon, A303 stonehenge

Spotted yesterday, sport (unsure which) in blue, caged, dropped on 2118's... looked good and not seen it around before, a local or someone en-route to k-tec etc?

http://vimeo.com/27967462 and this interview is worth a look too (follow the link) http://www.egarage.com/videos/

seems a common problem (i have done a search). had intermittent starting problems this week with the DCi with it culminating in it not starting at all today. WEDNESDAY (morning): car would not start, so took girlfriends car, was leant a charger and jump pack that day WEDNESDAY (evening)...

So i am at the stage where i need to decide on the colour of my project, I have had several ideas but these have come and gone, so i thought i would open it up to see if anyone can give me some fresh ideas. So the car will be keeping the yellow touches it previously had (hoses, cage, brakes etc)...

what would be best, beneficial? if anything at all?

my good mates Scion Bb, still very much a work in progress, but coming along very well.... i love it personally,
