Hi, going to have lots of questions from me, good and bad; some retarded.
Anyway, on idle at the side of the road, there sounds to be a thumping here and there from the exhaust? It's not constant but it does happen regularly. Is this unspent fuel and is this normal? Just eliminating whether it...
Hi Gents,
I'm confused. I thought these cars have around 185BHP or am I going about this the wrong way?
Pulling out of work earlier and my friend in his 1.4 Little Chevvy thing wanted a pull, the car was quarter heated at this point so I wasn't worried about cold racing, it was nearly there...
Hi guys,
Heard that things commonly go wrong with these cars. What tips can you give me that will prolong the life of parts such as the gearbox?
Should I take it to the Renault Garage if I need things done or are they a "Yeah we've done it" but actually haven't type of place?
Thanks.
I've done a little research, but I'm looking to see truthful figures.
My car is on 12,000 miles which I pick up tomorrow at 12:00.
How much BHP do these cars usually make? 185-195? Does my car need to be broken in more or should I just take it to a Dyno when I save a couple of quid? I know...
Hi,
Bought a car yesterday, haven't got it yet but the man told me it had the cup pack. Just want to know if he could possibly be fleecing me or not, the car drove superb so I don't think I'll say no but I just want a piece of mind tis' all.
Thanks
Hi everyone, long time no speak; I've been saving hard.
Anyway, I'm having issues with my decisions and I need some advice. On my current car, which is now a 19k mile 1.1 TCE Mark 3, I have the opportunity to put a 3 plate clutch, a wide intercooler and a K03S turbo on it at low boost and...
Hi, I'm at a loss on which clutch I should pick. It's in need of a new one fairly soon. Seems like the previous owner rode the clutch a lot and It's just about being finished off by myself. Preferably one which can handle 160-180BHP
Or this will happen:
£180 for a new glass window... I've only myself to blame. Left my laptop under the passenger seat. Due to it being Privacy glass, the individual who snatched and grabbed must have been peering in cars. I was saving money for new springs too! In dire need! Well damn...
Okay, let me write a short story so you all understand where I am coming from:
I had the car remapped about 2 months ago and I've been loving it ever since, when it was mapped; there were zero problems, and the mapper could get it up to its limiter easily. The car obviously had air being blown...
Would these fit? I've got a GT Line front Splitter on order which I know will fit the facelift bumper, but I want to know If I purchase these, will they slot on or are they only compatible with the wider arches?
Hi, I use the car mostly for the road with the odd track day here and there.
I want to lower the car, it is too damn high and is like sitting in a lorry at the moment.
H&R Coilovers or Weitec Coilovers? I don't want them to seize up!
Hi, as title suggests; what will I be looking at. I know someone else who has achieved 180 BHP and 180 foot pounds of torque balanced with a K04 but I am looking for a faster spooling turbo with a good kick rather than waiting for it to spool every time as it is such a small engine. Would a K03s...
Does anyone know where I can purchase a new or fairly new Megane 265 engine or have I got to go looking around scrappies for one? I know they are fairly new, but do Renault just sell them willy nilly too?
Anyone know one that is coming up after the New Year or close by? Looking to see some 2.0l 182's as I'll be doing the whole track day car thing after another year in Uni. I want to see what all the fuss is about. I'll admit, I'm a member of this forum, who hasn't actually been in a 2.0l Clio...
Hi,
I am extremely interested to know how this person achieved 60 in such a short space of time. I know it's slight wheel spin but the shifting is amazing.

Surely that cannot just be the driver?
Hi Gents and Ladies,
I've recently come to love a bodykit that looks OEM from Renault.
However, I cannot find the name of it, it is not the SX bodykit as I am really not a fan as it looks extremely 'Chavvy'. This however, looks extremely subtle.
If anyone knows the name, PLEASE post it...
Hi, can anyone recommend me in what way I should go with this?
I can put a K03 turbo on my car and get about 170BHP after a few more modifications or go for a 225 2.0 engine conversion.
What does everyone think? Is it more sensible to do an engine conversion? Can anyone give me estimates for...
Hi, I'm going to upgrade to a K03 turbo when I go down for an intercooler setup with a company.
I've seen Mark run a K04 Turbo with 170BHP on his TCE but I was thinking that a K04 would be too big and that a K03 would be big enough to match that number with even less turbo lag.
Can anyone back...
Hi, I'm looking for a FMIC company like FORGE to produce a custom setup for my 1.2 TCE. I've tried contacting M.West through here but to no avail for the intercooler measurements and setup he has! The only real issue I have with these companies is that they are all based in England or far north...
Hi, does anyone know where I can get a VVT 1.6 Mark 3 body kit? I have a 1.2 TCE Running 130BHP and I feel that it could do with a more 'out there' look, its a bit of a sleeper at the moment.
Also, how do I spray paint the front black bumper grille, how do I get it off? I really like the gloss...
Hi was driving the windy roads in Dorset the other day and coming up to sharp corners the car has difficulty slowing down and the brake almost feels like it's grinding when I'm pressing down.
Need to to upgrade these brakes to match the 130bhp I'm producing now and the car has all the extras...
Hi been mentioned to me that I can fit a bigger compressor in the tces turbo housing. If anyone has any experience with this can you let me know what compressor you are using. Thanks.
Total noob here,
I've recently got a Forge 007 DV and I've had instructions with it but they give me no confidence on how to complete the task; I am a total novice at vehicles and the only thing I can change is a filter! I want to learn, which is why I'd gladly do it if I had a set of clear...
Hi, looking to fit this to my car
http://www.ktrdirect.com/equipment/seats/road-seats/sparco-bucket-seat-r100.html
Do I need a subframe? What one? How do I do it? Need a complete walkthrough of this!
Hi, going to order some injectors for my 1.2 TCE, where can I find a reputable place to buy matched injectors, the standard ones will do; but matched? Better.
