  1. Sm Inlet manifold:

    about the inlet, do you know if someone has the right ECU map for it in Australia?

      Hey fabien, I don't know about ecu mapping. If you did the air intake and exhaust system I would source someone who dyno tunes renaults and ask them what they thought of the intake manifold, pod filter and exhaust.

      i've put on an Avo dual entry pod filter, bigger intake hose and 2.25 inch Mandal bend exhaust system and I'm happy with my mid range power. 

      But people do different things and get different results 

      hope I've helped

      Do you also have the spare plate for the coilover box fixation?

      No don't think so 

  2. step 2 is done: the belts, water pump, ignition, leads, spark, oil, silicon hose the next step is mallala on the 13th August. the following two are: -mechanical check (rattling noise on the front left from stop position, small noise on the rear right suspension, alternator pully out of rubber) -paint and fiber glass work optionnal: -15x7 or 15x8 wheels with 205 -more power
  3. i had a go at green hill road up in the ills the other week... the car feels amazing in the twisty road and was keeping the 80km/h on the top twisty road. It was a blast. The only guy having more fun was probably the one with the 205 gti which was hoping from one corner to the other one.
  4. hello guys, I bought a rought clio 172 cheap in Adelaide a week ago. it has some electical cremlins (need to find this ground issue), front and rear strut bar, aftermarket adjustable suspension kit, an aftermarket air intake which was not fixed (temporary done now), a air exit hose has been blocked and the engine sounds at low rev like the pistons are fighting each others, the front screen water tank is leaking and i am prety sure that the air co is not working, the roof fan to filter the air is noisy (second hand part on the way), the battery look to be a shorter version than the stock one. As i said, the car is in rough condition but still put a smile on my face when i drive it. I need to find this ground issue and then i will be happy for one month. After a run on greenhill road, the car is a monster in cornering... I was at 80 almost all the way up hill and was not even close to the traction limit. I found a good euro specialist mechanic in Adelaide and if the car survived a go at mallala in August, i promissed myself to bring it back to his glory with few thousands euros. I will start with time belt, plug lead and ignition coil pack. It may even get an enginer rebuilt if we consider that this closed hose is not hiding more issues. On a 13 year car i am thinking of changing most of the hose too. Did anybody ever try the forge silicon coolant hoose and intake hose on a clio? any comments? by the way, i cannot find a renault sport club in south australia... is there one? regards fabien
