Checked the cctv remotely to make sure its still in the garage

@Tomotek i cut a hole in the bulkhead below the wiper linkage and welded up a raised platform with the correct size hole for the bulkhead plug to locate into, it then allowed me to reuse the interior and engine bay plugs. I might have a picture, i'll have a look an stick it up if i do.

Good up date. The engine bay wiring is the next task I have on mine, already done all the interior loom

Be interested to see what it weighs

@ph-reebone I have that cage and I altered mine to go to the rear strut tops with a bar joining both struts and also triangulated through to the front strut towers. I'll be adding further triangulation to the rear beam mounts over winter

I may be being daft but doesn't state a price?

I for one will be interested in the reinforcement plates. So count me in for a set

Don't have any experience but I would presume it would be 100% fine. Most cars with turbo'd as standard these days have plastic engine covers

I agree, we need updates........... so i can steal ideas for my winter overhaul

with the car so high on the cill stands i would just drop it down

@Djw John as garry said above i have a silver ph1, had no plates on and full silver cage. Yeah the gearbox was making a loud clunk when down changing into the hairpin so came in to have a look. gearbox oil all over the place so new box time. Has been whining all year so its been coming

I kept missing you out on track, i came across a few clios but none were up for a play

said it before, but i shall say it again. LOVE this!

You on the MD motorsport tracknight on thursday? @Djw John if so i shall see you up there, will probably be my cars last trackday this year before it goes in the garage for some changes

Charged the battery and gave it a quick spanner check and fluid check as i have a trackday on thursday

I have seen this in the flesh before and its pretty rough. Also from the outing i seen it on knockhill from a performance point of view it was quite underwhelming (might not have been running properly though)

I cant see that being a solution to the sticky throttle as they will be of the same age, mileage etc. therefore have the same issues?

64mm internal diameter from memeory on the PH1 cable body, pcd for fixing holes is 70 something but cant remember the exact figure. I'll measure it if i remember later

@Andyman speak to AT power and if you tell them the application they will sort you out an appropriate bracket

I have found cleaning them makes no difference to the sticky throttle problem. The issue lies with the spring becoming tired and expanding, therefore rubbing on the plastic wheel the throttle cable goes around. If you look a the spring there is always a shiny slightly flat spot where it rubs...

There isn't from having a quick skim read, too much discrepancy in this thread. fuel an spec of cage being the main differences. Regarding the fuel weight you refer to as full fluids, nobody runs there car with a full tank when competing (unless endurance racing). Race weight is more akin to 1/4...

@vroomtshh may be able to give some advice on the ME221 clio pnp ECU. Albeit he used it on an ITB build

good to see your keeping it an adding the extra power rather than getting rid, i will be watching the thread with interest

Love this thread, always enjoy reading the up-dates and thought process behind the modifications made.

When i enquired i was told they were no longer available! Have since been looking for a rebuild kit with no luck. AT power have a suitable item but its £300 before you add a new TPS sensor

I have driven both, on the road and on track. Both are noticeably quicker than the standard clio, the turbo car is noticeably quicker than the ITB'd clio. Would either be more fun on track, No would be my opinion. Although if i was to invest my money into either ITB's or turbo it would be Turbo...

Love this

Tidy cupra, would do me as a daily but your miiiiiiiiiles away

@yeecup do you work in edinburgh's west end?

I don't use the top mounts for camber. They are adjusted to give maximum castor
