Hey guys,

Just thought id write word of two about my new little toy, after selling my r33 this is the only car i actually liked - nothing made me smile more. The beauty of RS Clio.

Done couple of little mods to the car just to differ from the rest :P

So far the list is;

Braided brake lines

Ferodo DS2500 pads

Camber pins, -1.7 Left, -1.4 Right - Toe 0.5mm out Left, 0.5mm out Right (1.0mm total) so much more grip and sharper turn in!

Remus exhaust

Eibach springs

My all time favorite, Mille Miglia HT3 wheels with michellin pp2 rubber!

Samco sport air pipe

BMC CDA Carbon intake - sounds like a wounded animal hehe :(

Various sound system upgrades and very dark tint...

odyssey pc680 battery

Almost forgot, home made front splitter :)

And of course 30hp TOY number plate!

Im sure i missed the little things out but thats how far i got it for now, not finished yet!

It loves to be trashed, and toyed with!

its uh... cute...

haha, looks pretty decent dude, handle well does it?

Straight line speed is not this cars strong point, but to be honest it does keep up with most of the cars.

Handling wise, i already gave grief to couple of subby boys in the hills :P

errr shouldn't you be posting this on a Renault site? :(

Sorry, hate it. Unless you have a vag. But even my wife wouldn't drive a frog car (yes, I know they now own Nissan, but that's not an issue) :P

Why not post it here, im sure many members here dont have a skyline.. at least i had one :)

no offense meant mate .... was just pointing out that surely members of a frog-loving community would have much respect for such a car .... however opinion here may differ. Imagine the response one would get on for posting up about a new Skyline acquisition on a Renault club site - a fair lynching, I would imagine :P

Non taken! Believe it or not, were revving about new GT-R on our forums. Great car doesn't need a specific community to be appreciated thats my point, not talking about my car.

Oh crap, work in few hours!

I quite like it. Friend of a friend has a Clio (sporty one, whatever the model) and he raved about it, as did my friend who drove it. FWD still sucks ass for REALLY spirited driving (I know I own an SP23) but overall looks like a fun package.

Love it - and remember that Renault is owned by Nissan these days, or is it the other way around??

Anyway, if dovla can drive, this froggy girl's car would hand your arse to most Skyline drivers on here through Chain of Ponds :)

Confucius say, "it not how fast yoo go up mountain, but how good you rook getting there"

some little buzz boxes like ur clio can be HEAPS of fun... my bro in law had (till recently) a worked pug 205, i have never been in a car that u can throw at a corner as hard as that. awesome for motorkhana and hills driving.

however oversteer > understeer when u step on the loud pedal

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
