    Lowering my Clio..help

    Contact K-tec racing and ask about there £100 kits! They have some old surplus stock. 35mm lowered and uprated. Front and rear springs and shocks! With the money you save, buy some solid strut mounts as the knocking will drive you crazy!

    Clio Mk2 Phase 2 1.2 16v tuning

    OK, what about something of only a slightly larger engine maybe the 1.6? This would i imagine give a larger bore for the full length of the exhaust pipe and then a larger freer flowing back box? Also do the "tune able" exhaust inserts actually work, because know seems to use them. Although id...

    Clio Mk2 - Engine swap or new car?

    Just sorted it out temporary now. Took the rear raised (stamped out) stops off the back of the runners and moved it past them and one side locks in and the other side i drilled straight through and put a stainless steel M8 bolt all the way through. For now i have loads of leg room. But its not...

    Clio Mk2 Phase 2 1.2 16v tuning

    Would using a exhaust from say the Clio 172, increase flow and hence performance on my car. Iv heard that its generallt more benneficial. Because as much as i like the performance gains of "sports" exhausts the loudness is something i am not happy with. Id like to find something similar to the...

    Clio Mk2 - Engine swap or new car?

    Funnily enough this was my inital though but i was going to use aluminium plate or the same thickness. My only worry is MOT time. Iv a family memember who had a car which failed because the seat was not secured safely. Could this be the same for my car once the "modifcations" are completed. Or...

    IAT sensor location Clio 1.2 16v Mk2?

    Hey "wezzel98765" The previous owner actually had the courtesy of fitting one and was the only mod he had on the car. I was told it was the one in my name, and so i wanted to get under and check it out and have a play, fuel consumption seems fine atm, but as its a variable resistance chip its...

    Clio Mk2 Phase 2 1.2 16v tuning

    Right ill be sorting out the wheels soonish. Back to my previous thoughts, i understand how the electric turbos could be underpowered because i would have to use a 12v one. BUT iv been bored and thinking about what i have, and what IF i used my current 12v - 240v inverter and a 240v blower fan...

    Clio Mk2 Phase 2 1.2 16v tuning

    I don't really want to lower the car, but sadly iv found it hard to not find uprated/sports suspension that isn't lowered by some sort i understand this is to reduce amount of roll. Also i'm rather large 6ft3 17-18stone, and most of my friends/family are the same so fully laden the car is going...

    Clio Mk2 Phase 2 1.2 16v tuning

    I would be probably using Renault Clio cup 172 alloys anyhow, and as looks aren't exactly my main aim it might be fine. Although i am going to be sorting out the suspension soon, as it is on the out sadly, although i wouldn't be dropping it by much i think max i would go to would be 35mm, as...

    Re: Clio Owners introduce yourselves here. Hey man, thanks for that all :), been checking out the wheels, the tyre's do seem rather good, been looking at some alloys to match them up with and the 172 alloys do seem a good option, quite simplistic as well. Getting the fuzz of my tail. On the...
