New Owner Hi Guys. Interesting reading your posts. I'm the present owner of this car now. I've just bought a Yozzasport exhaust for it and just before I did I searched for any videos of a Yozzasport exhaust and found my very car in the video. A Guy call Craig owned the car at some time...

Hi Chaps. Just thought I'd give you guys the part number for the clips that fix the after market mats firmly to the carpet. It stops the need to bl***y adjust them every time you get in the car. Part No: 77 11 220 013 Cost about £5.00 Cheers

Wheel bolts. I found out what and why I had the issue. I have now worked out why I had the issue. The bolts I ordered had threads 20mm longer. But the problem was the taper on these bolts was in the form of a washer that was loose from the bolt. The taper washer was 10mm long. When fitted to...

Smiles per gallon. For me it's about smiles per gallon!! :w00t:

Bolts on Spacers The wheel Bolts on the spacers would be ok if you used locktight.

Spacers Ok I forgot to mention the rest of the fix. Front hubs plus bearings and new bolts. Dam some of you guys don't miss a thing.

I take the odd rumble strip but not major.. The fix will be simple. Just get longer bolts.

Did KTec supply the bolts? I need some new ones. Cheers

Wheel nuts & spacers I'm sticking with the spacers I just wanted to warn others of the thread issue. I torque them to about 110nm. The reason the locking bolt held is when I got them they were far to long. I cut them but left them longer than the other 4 bolts by about 4-5 mm. I was in a...

Hi Chaps. I thought this might help save someone else the hassle and danger I have just gone through. I fitted some H&R 20mm spacers and read on the Interweb what bolts to fit. Basically 20mm longer. Makes sence after all. I have done quite a few miles on them and now three track days...

This is another video of James and I at Le Mans. James has lowering springs. 20mm Spacers. Ktec cams and remap. But one of his piston compressions is down by about 10psi. And his on Yokohamas AD08 tyres. I've got H&R lowering springs. 20mm spacers. Ketch remap. And I'm on Toyo 888...

Hi Chaps. I've just come back from a great weekend at Le Mans. This is the first time I've tracked this car. It's a Clio 197 F1 with James chasing me in his modded 197. It was great fun. Check out this video on YouTube...

Hi. I see your looking for a Clio F1 197 or similar. I tried to strike a deal with This guy call Alexander on this email. backifran@gmail.com Hes got a Liquid Yellow 197 with 36500 Miles on a 2007. He wasn't at the time I bought one interested in doing a deal. But times moved on and he...

Hi Ben cheers for your reply. This is kind of what I was wondering. I think the way to tackle it is see if I can get the shock out without spending to much time on it. Monitor the swearing levels!! Cheers.

Ah right cheers. Tools is the one thing I do have. Cheers

My spanner skills are ok. The reason I asked the question was I read a thread with two guys talking about the front spring change.. One seemed to think it was simple. The other took hours.. Both seemed quite competent. Reading the thread lead to me ask the question is the shocks on a F1 197...

Hi chaps. Ive got some H&R springs coming and I've read some posts on this forum and it seems it could be fairly easy. Or a complete b***h? I know the rears are easy but it's the fronts I'm not so sure about. Anyone got any advice? Cheers

Reply Cheers I will check out the links you've suggested. TB? Turbo? As for trackdays. I'm doing LeMans in a couple of weeks. I plan on doing Brands Hatch, Lydden being as its the local track. And whatever else comes up in the UK. I'm organising a Spa Trackday for November and if the ring is...

Mods and Pics Hi Roy. I have pics on my iPad but can't seem to upload them from it. Roy I see you have a steering wheel trim? Have you had the wheel recovered? I would like mine recovered with black alcantera. Any advice as to who or where? Willis the mods are simple at the moment. H&R...

Hello all. So I now find my self with a new toy to get some fun in. I've been doing the odd trackday for a while now in a German brand but decided the costs of tyres and other items prohibit some of the fun to be had. I've had the new toy for about 2 weeks now and first impressions are...
