Fairplay. Some work going in here!

I did a very nest job the first time. Ha. A nozzle on a silicone gun is very important 😂

Because I can't stop banging on about my excellent YT career. Here's another terribly awkward video.

Exactly what my thought process is. I believe the down turn reverberates (?) the exhaust note back in to the car. With the window down a bit, it's not so bad.

Can assure you the hanger is correct. I think if anything the rod/bar welded to the box isn't where it needs to be, maybe? Hahahaha. Made me laugh. I've got a KTEC stealth here, but it's too boomy. Maybe I'm getting old or what but I want a quite exhaust? Or at least an exhaust I can't hear...

Had a big birthday recently and the wife surprised me with a weekend away (kid free) in a lodge in the sticks of West Wales. As it was just the two of us the missus suggested taking the 172 Cup and choosing the scenic route. I really got back in the grove with the Clio, giggling like...

I'm no expert, but I'm going to say, false. The subframe mounting holes, not just for the 4 bolts where it attaches to the car but all the other gubbins, will be RS specific. Also the weight of the engine and gearbox. I believe 172/182 subframes are interchangeable. They're quite readily...

Not me thinking this was a baby's crib thread. Never heard of that term for Jenga.

Yeah I did spot that. I might add one to tidy up the stuff on the shelves. Eternally grateful as it's a awesome gift.

Big birthday recently and the wife got me this. This was after I'd just built, shelving on the left is alot neater and junk on top of the beer fridge has gone. Tumble drier needs to stay there due to the vent. Need to peel the protective film off the peg board. Cabinet itself is well built...

Link please. Need some for my 182.

Seem to remember the previous owner of this one being of the TikTok generation and quite enthusiastic about it until it stopped. I think he found the rust and wanted shot of it.

Not sure how, but I'd missed this trailer. Thanks for posting it.

Nice mate. Looking forward to this one.

Missus booked a weekend away in West Wales for my birthday and said let's take the 172 Cup. Absolute blast.

Brace yourself, I'm quite s**t.

It was meant tongue in cheek. Perhaps I should have said "shy" instead, as it's really out of my comfort zone. Also, 6 videos in and the first time I've mentioned it. It's also in my thread, where people may have an interest, not in a more wider part of the forum, where I could really lack...

It wasn't THAT loud in the first place to be honest, but compared to anything modern it is loud. Plus gave me a chance to scrub the car under the floor mat. The RS mats, cheaper from RPD than Renault themselves at £48 👌

I'm old and forgetful, but I did.

Just tagged you in the build thread @ex-Chinese Dave I don't think I ever dropped the link in here to the 172 Cup rebuild, so here it is....

@ex-Chinese Dave update for you mate.

As others have picked up on I've started a YouTube channel. I've not actively promoted this, as I'm a humble kind of guy, but if you want to watch some YouTube content and see me amble my way though please feel free. https://youtube.com/@bowzgarage?si=KGTWukINwLj5W9vt Regarding the 182, I've...

Same. The pads, the little bar that slides along the bottom, awful.

INCREDIBLE work. Fairplay mate. Smashed it. When can I book my 182 in? ;)

Nice read. Sub £1k car.... oh for it to be 2016 again.

That is strange! :ROFLMAO: Thank you for the view and comment mate, means alot. If there's one thing I know about Clios, it's as soon as you stop one rattle another appears!

x2 Didn't another mate mess the gearbox/linkage up? If it's the same person, he's out to sabotage you son.

Save starting another thread. Does anyone have a link to a set of front door speakers for the 182. I'm running an aftermarket Pioneer headunit. I don't want to run and amp. I don't want to replace the tweeters in the dash if I can help it. May replace the rear door card speakers in time...

More photos to prove I'm driving it. Really, really pleased with it. The sound the RS2 inlet gives is a proper dirty noise and the way in drives compared to my 182 is really different. More photos and videos on IG @bowzgarage

Stills taken from a video so not the sharpest quality.
