Just put a set of winter tires on the R27 as it got cold so the PS4's were far too hard and slippery, after a while contemplating whether to go for an all season tire, as we dont get much snow, just cold and wet during the winter, decided to go for the winter ones in the end, as maybe if we do...

Hi Guys, Since the wife was sent off to do the home office I could leave the clio at the garage to get some work done. First on the list was the manifold and the steering rack, got the new OEM SR, one ordered according to the vin, but honestly feels quicker :) dont know, maybe they only do the...

Hi Found this yesterday, today the clio gets revealed, so far the interior has been shown together with the RS' one as well, looks pretty good tbh,

Time has come the R27 needed some work done, amazed by how solid the suspension is on these cars, just at close 90 k km had these parts done for the first time, and some of them were actually in a good shape still, just got replaced since parts were cheap Had a NSF spring broken, so thought...

Hi Guys, havent posted in quite a while, been just too busy with the workshop, anyway, have made it to paint the Braids matt black and give the clio some new parts it needed. So bought the Braids Fullrace A in white, just were a nightmare, impossible to keep clean looking, a few miles after the...

Just getting prepared for the first ever change of brake pads on my 2007 R27 :) Looking forward to see the options non trackcar setups people recommend, I did use standard Brembo pads in my previous 197, but to be honest they were worse than the factory pads, nothing special in terms of...

Thought its about time to give the car a wash, as with the snow and salt on the streets it got really dirty, couldnt see the car underneath all thats been covering it. Couldnt use the pressure washer as it was in another garage, so out came the hose and three buckets of warm water, one of them...

Thinking about getting one in the spring, as now its already cold and snowy so wont be able to enjoy it really, but looks interesting, a cheaper alternative than changing the bootlid for the gt spoiler and the cup spoiler being a bit too much for me, this one caught my attention...

Seen a few UK registered clios during the lastweek trackdays on thursday and friday, anyone from here ? Went with a friend in his new ( less than 8k miles on the clock ) all standard JCW, must admit it took it pretty well, standard brakes lasted the 9 laps we did with no real issues, first on...

So there is a test mule running around in Spain :) Looks wide on the front and sitting lower than the GT, brembos are on as well, sure there will be some more news leaking out now, RUK guys say it will go on sale in 2018 so sounds like there;s plenty of time for the RS to have it developed...

Just had these babies put on yesterday, its a BRAID FULLRACE A in 17x7 ET50, according to willtheyfit.com it sticks out only 11,4 mm farther than the et68 wheel in 7.5 width which was my main concern as I couldnt live with the wheels sticking out too much...

Thinking about getting these fitted on a non lowered 197 cup, will it look odd with the ET45 ? anyone has any pics of ET45 7,5x17" on a non lowered 197 cup ?

Yes finally, after over a year since I have sold my deep black 2006 197 I have found a worthy successor :) Its a low mileage - 17k miles - 2007 R27 in perfect shape. Went to see the car two weeks ago, couldnt believe it was as perfect as described in the ad, but yes, proved to be, so the next...

Hi there, been a while since I last posted as I sold the previous car in sept '14, bought another one just a week ago which I will share later on. The thing is, I need a set of DRL's as for the stupid EU law we need to drive with either DRL's or main beam lights on all day, all year round. The...

So today we have seen the Trophy - R which surely is the last of the mk3 megane RS. If we take a trip back in time, we'll see that about a month after the R26.R was revealed also May / June first spy shots of the mk3 megane went public followed by a mk3 reveal on the Paris auto show. What do...

Thinking about using a liqui moly engine flush prior to next oil change, The procedure is to fill the 500ml of their stuff into the engine and leave it running on idle for 10-15 minutes. Then to drain the whole thing and put new oil in. Anyone done it? Anyone recommend or have strong...

Anyone thought about this? I certainly do, one of the features I envy the 200t owners of :) Seen quite a few 2nd hand units available at a decent price, just not that technical personally to do it on my own... If anyone goes for it, please post the progress thread, could be a nice and...

HI all, Tried search but found no answer to my question, Getting the manifold flexis replaced in a few days, the exhaust company offers to do the Y-Pipe at the same time, I have little to none experience in this field, never have had any cars exhaust modified before lol, here goes then...

Anyone familiar with the renault part number for the 197 ? My car is a non cup, so using my VIN will only display the non cup shock absorber... need to get a set for the front as I put a set bought second hand and one of the front ones is gone, thanks for the help!
