    Shock Absorber Options

    I'm 200+ miles from them, plus unless they're offering free coilovers and free fitting I wouldn't be interested in them :D Don't think they're worth £500 more than just replacing my shock absorbers, unless I was doing loads of trackdays

    Shock Absorber Options

    Just as good practice I would replace them anyway

    Shock Absorber Options

    Yeah i've considered coilovers but don't really think they're worth buying. It'd be £800, plus top mounts, plus fitting, plus set up/geometry/tracking and even then i'd still have 95k mile old bushes all round and probably a bone shaking ride that i'd regret. Just been looking at Bilstein B4...

    Shock Absorber Options

    My car is a non cup 197, i've got some Eibach springs for it which I debated selling on but now i'm leaning towards fitting them. My cars done 95k miles so i'm thinking it'd be a good idea to change shock absorbers and top mounts at the same time while its apart. What are my options for new...

    Keyless Entry & Surfing

    A genuine aquapac is the one to go for. I've used one before and the seal they make is really tight.

    Keyless Entry & Surfing

    I reckon you can trust them, they must be very confident in them as they market them as submersible and suitable for car keys so they'd be in for some hefty lawsuits if they leaked!

    Keyless Entry & Surfing

    It is a tricky one, can't you get a little waterproof pouch to put the key in? http://store.aquapac.net/explore-product-range/waterproof-money-passports-cases/keymaster-fits-asthma-inhalers-608.html

    Clio turbo

    Ahh Right yeah I took it the other way haha I guess with the stage 3 you get the boost controller, so you could run it at lower boost most of the time and turn it up when your out for a drive or on track, thats the appeal of stage 3 to me. Although I think an LSD would probably be needed at...

    Clio turbo

    If the stage 3 kit can give around 320bhp for £5k, I don't think thats too bad. You'd struggle to do the same for less with a meg engine from what i've read. Plus that price is fully fitted isn't it? Including engine strip down and build inc new bearings, new turbo, new pistons - Sounds really...

    Clio turbo

    Figures sound tasty! I'd much rather turbo my own engine than pour money into a used Meg engine with no idea of its history. Also I guess there's less wiring involved having to hack together a meg and clio loom. Wonder why it isn't common for companies to offer turbo kits for the 197/200. I...

    Clio turbo

    What sort of power are you expecting for stage 2? The website is quite basic on the info. I've read the same! Seems to be the general consensus that you can't turbo them very well...

    Clio turbo

    Prices seem good! Seems better than a meg conversion to me anyway

    Brake calliper bolt torque setting?

    Can somebody confirm the torque setting for the front brake calliper bolts? I've got the workshop manual and it says in Nm - 110 then its got in bracket next to that 170. So is it 110Nm or 170Nm? If someone could confirm asap that'd be great as I need to get it all back together!

    Not so sure about my choice of Lotus so far... But overall 162 points isn't bad

    Changing springs - What else do I need?

    Just got home and had a look at the manual again and its the shock absorber rod nut and the upper lock nut of the anti-roll bar tie-rod ball joint that I need sizes for if anyone knows? If not i'll just order M6, M8, M10 and M12 and hope that covers it :lol:

    RenaultSport Mats

    Is that for a full set? Seems like a bargain to me, I thought Genuine Renault mats were nearer £70
