    Addicted

    I really enjoy this site too. It still small, but not empty, with very knowledgeable people, but I'm able to solve a question or comment something now and then. I've been in several english forums, and this one, for now, is the one that I like the most, and everyday gets better. Is the...

    Bigger (64mm) drive by wire throttle body

    Somebody has found a 70 mm throttle body, not like the last one that was 65 mm but at the end that meets the plenum was 70mm. The problem with this one is that you have to make an adpater plate, so is more work. Some guy from the local forum is selling those at more than 400 pounds, so it...

    Japan 197&200 meet?

    Have you guys noticed that ALL the 197's on that video are LHD, even though they drive like you guys? Is pretty strange, having a RHD version of the car they sell LHD cars in Japan.

    Dash board Flocking

    The cup dash is just ridiculous, I haven't had a cup but I had a basic clio III that had that dash. In Spain, 80% of the year is sunny, and I only saw reflections of the dashboard instead of the road. Even in my FF 197 windscreen vents are in a glossy style of plastic, and I'm desperate for...

    Induction

    If you look at it you can see that you are not bypassing the filter at all, it just opens the space before the filter. The only thing that happens is that you are sucking hotter air, but that's all. I've looked at it several times and done it a couple of them, and I can assure you there's not a...

    Induction

    If you guys want the sound of an induction kit just take the lid of the airbox off. Is way cheaper than any induction kit and you would get the same performace gains as with other induction kits, none. If someone proves me that there's an induction kit that actually makes power I would buy...

    Induction

    I'm starting to doubt that even the V6 airbox is worth it. Cup racers have it, but they are modified with electronics to suit. Is really worth it to spend 300 pounds (including battery relocation) in a filter that gives you what, 2 hp? For what I've heard, the car has something called like...

    Alluminium Pedals

    It should be easier to go to your local dealer and order them. I don't know an online store that sells Renault OEM parts.

    £700 to blow, a few options?

    I don't really like nitrous so my opinion is completely biased, but it could be a good idea, especially if you get more reliability. Plastic widows sounds good, didn't think about it.

    £700 to blow, a few options?

    You have every thing that is in the market (almost) in your car! Is going to be difficult to improve it. The only thing I can think of is or ITB's or turbo, and those 2 things are way more than 700 pounds. Are you happy with the performance of the car? If so, maybe a retrim of the Recaros...

    Think I might have ordered a 200?!?!

    I wouldn't do it, but it could be just me. Financing things is the worst thing that you can do if you don't want to lose money. I'm very reluctant to new car sales, the only one I bought was my clio DCI and, in 2 years i made 70.000 miles on it (don't know if is a lot for you guys, but in...

    Traction control

    I don't turn mine off in day to day conmuting, as I don't feel like it should be. I don't know you guys, but my car is used as a daily driver, and doesn't need the TC off. Is not too intrusive, it's predictable (you know when is going to kick in and how would thae car react), and if you find...

    Do Clio Cup race cars use spacers or different offset wheels...

    I think is not the wheels, is the whole suspension system.

    How to turn off headlights washer?

    Under the refill neck of the washer bottle there are 2 pumps. You have to disconnect 1 of them, dont know which one though.

    Clio200.net???

    You know that in Spain, clio 197 is known as clio 200 and the new clio 200 is known as clio 203? It could be interesting if is the same in other countries, and maybe would be worth to get also the clio203.net domain also ;)

    My boring 197 progress thread

    Really? I was told that all the Recaros had the same bolt pattern, but we'll have to wait and see if that's true. If not, it doesn't bother me too much, I'm not too bad at metal working, so with the original sliders, a welder and a hammer I may be able to make the seats fit. But that's going to...

    My boring 197 progress thread

    That's true, but I have the original Recaro frames that were in the 197 so the bolt pattern in the floor of the car is the same and they are for recaros, not just the sporster CS ;)

    My boring 197 progress thread

    Thanks for the response guys ;) Kevo, I didn't put the seats yet, as I have only found a set of EVO VIII recaros and they are blue, but i'm going to use recaro subframes as all recaro seats have the same bolt pattern ;) About the grey and white combo, some people like it, some not. It's...
