    Best Speaker & Sub Upgrade?

    I think rear speakers are not necessary for creating stereo image on the front screen. So I dont use original rear speakers except when my children are seated there. ts-e130ci :thumbup1:

    Best Speaker & Sub Upgrade?

    I dont use direct replacement because clio's door speaker mount is so weak that it vibrates easily with deep bass.Tweeters at the standard locations, you are listening to the reflection from the front window glass (opposite phase sound), I wand to listen to the direct sound from them. My way...

    Best Speaker & Sub Upgrade?

    I recommend pioneer TS-E130Ci 13cm Separate 2-Way Speaker System (180W). I've got it in my clio for 9 months and completely sutisfied. I dont think you need sub with this TS-E130Ci. Its bass is awesome (but requires some months to start pump out). I cant believe it is 13cm mid ...

    Clio RS 20th mod in Japan

    1. Its on the ceatre console next to the hand brake. 2. I think clio's clutch travel is too long. You can pedal it long way after the clutch meet, and it bothers me. 3. Yes, you can hear the shift indicator's alarm much earlier than before. I recommend a high flow air filter also. 4. Two...

    Clio RS 20th mod in Japan

    Hi, arranshuker The extra interior door handles are custom by my Reanlt dealer's mechanic. He doesnt tell me where the pockets from but i think they are from Nissan parts. Many people here feel the doors too heavy to open and close as you say.

    Clio RS 20th mod in Japan

    Hi,RalphyBMW Thank you for you comment. Yes, 200's have only two seats in Japan too. But I have three children and one wife:p so I asked the importer to add one more seat (headrest and seat belt).

    200 Cup Gearbox seems noisy

    If I misunderstand the problem, I am sorry. My English skill is not good ,sometimes I dont see what you are talking about. Yes, I tried deadening around gear stick to reduce the noise from it. In the same way, I stuffed inner dashboard, inner meterhood, inner doors and so on.

    Real Dry Carbon Rear Defuser

Compared with Toyota,Nissan and Honda, Renault sales valume in Japan is very very...

    Real Dry Carbon Rear Defuser

    I think Japanese supplier's cost will be much more expensive than £800 ,because the rear one is £2700 !!!! The Japanese Sifo front deffuser covers almost all under part of front section to make air flow smoother, so it uses big amount of carbon. Anyway, I will inform you the price when Sifo...

    I am very surprised to see high popularity of the front diffuser among you. I heard that the front diffuser is a trial production and still is not on sale. If they start to sell, I will inform you the price:)
