Hey all, So it's time I updated everyone on my situation! So I joined this forum approximately 2 years ago now, when I bought my brothers Renault Clio 172 off of him, about 5 months ago I sold the weeee beasty! As it was time for me to upgrade because I got my full license and am now allowed to drive turbo! Fun times! So after contemplating buying a few different car which included 200sx spec s, a newer clio(197 was in my price range), and 350z as well as the meganes. After tear driving all the vehicles I kept on goin back to the megane as it just provided the whole package, fuel economy, luxury, and reliability, but most of all it put the biggest smile on face which is why I decided to go for a 225cup model, I chose that because I will be using it everyday, and I highly doubt I'll be goin on many track days, if any! And I like leather Approximately 2 months ago, I bought my RSM from a chap in Victoria, he was very sad to see it go! But he made me very happy so I brought it back up from Victoria and it has been great I am so satisfied with it! It is a beautiful! Hopefully you will all meet her at a meet sometime soon! --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=-33.745356,150.878353

Hey guys! Just bought a Renault wrist watch!! I get it in 2 weeks!! ill post pics then just wanted to let you all know Oleg

Hey Wolf, Just an enquiry regarding the exhaust system link you gave me, do i have to give you what dimensions i want eg. pipe diameter, where i want resignators and mufflers? or do they have the designs for a good performance exhaust set up already? How is the mongoose system? also from that site, and the janspeed exhaust if how ever you think i should go with the longlife, would u be able to help me with what design i should go for? Thanks Oleg

Hey everyone, Thanks for all the info, its a real help, even though its confusing me a bit, I am 19 years old, and this RSC is my second car, I used to own a Nissan 300zx. I've decided for the time being I will get the standard RSC clutch with the 182 clutch cable. After I save up some money I want an exhaust system, which I have looked into the Miltek exhaust system, cause I want some noise and when we got the inspection done on the car a few months ago they said the rear muffler was starting to rust so I thought might as well change the whole thing out and the miltek seems to be very popular if anybody else has any recommendations with exhaust systems I am listening, also I thought while i'm doing the exhaust I would fit a cold air induction kit. Any hints regarding what brands and piping size is very much appreciated...

Hey, Thanks for all that info, well first thing i want to do is a new clutch with a lightened flywheel, i've been trying to find out if the 182cup clutch fits cause i have heard its a really strong clutch, and i want to keep it renault cause the seem to last a very long time, after the clutch i want to get an full exhaust system with cold air intake,catback and extractors ... after that i was planning on working on strut bars... I want to go on a track day, just to really test the limits of the car, cause just driving on the roads, u can feel there is soooo much potential, lol i was wondering how much the rs tuner cost, cause that sounds like something i will b interested in doing, and also, if anyone can tell me how much a new clutch would cost? just so i have a benchmark price so i know i'm not getting ripped off. Thanks again for all the information Oleg

Hey Wolf, Thanks for your reply, My RSC is a December 2001 model, it has 128000kms, my brother owned it before me, and he always went to French Tech and that guy seemed to do a good job, though he was really pricey... My brother bought the car at 86000kms and has always maintained it on time, and payed alot of money for it, we have all the reciepts from when the car was bought brand new, as the previous owners handed them down to us... we have all records of what was done for each service, and the mechanic at French Tech has said that the car as has been taken car of and I plan on continuing this level of maintainence... This car is my daily drive but it is not necessary for me to drive it for half the week, as i have other forms of travelling to uni, i mainly use the car to get to work and back and if i go out. I want to get a cold air induction kit, extractors and a catback system and also my clutch will need to be replaced soon enough. well here are some picture of my little beast... also, this might be a really newbie question what does 'itm' stand for?
