Nothing nicer than fixing a problem. I’m in the process of changing all my suspension parts and all I need now is top mounts, shocks and springs. I always buy new nuts and bolts as I don’t want this happening on mine. Can’t be dealing with chasing a knock/rattle it’s the worst lol. Good job that...

Been a while since I've updated this thread and I've mainly been acquiring a few suspension pieces and carbon fibre parts as well as trying to get to Andy at engine dynamics for cam timing and a remap. So far I have purchased the following. Track rods x2 Track rod ends x2 New wishbones x2...

Nice update list so far mate, keeping it fresh I see.

Cracking work that mate. Like a good freshen up when I buy cars as well makes it all better.

Liking the progress mate. Coming along nicely.

Unfortunate that mate but for the money you payed it's still a bargain. Good updates, I too prefer the oem+ look.

You should get the ktec then. Here's mine inside a stripped out 182 cup.

I really rated my ktec recessed/hidden system and de cat was awesome it picked up so well. Pms are very good though. Engine bay looks better, nice little touches like new bolts here and there, polish what you can makes it pop nicely.

All of these from eBay i take it?

What we talking?

Another update after having a few weeks off. Been busy doing small but important bits. Intake/battery cover pinted satin black. Made up a new cold air feed from the front grill using the original fixing and new ducting. Need to make a hole in the front metal panel again il use another...

Nice work mr well deserved indeed. Car just works so well and clearly thought out so yeah very deserved, sure we can do something with the paintwork one day nice detailing/mopping session Where you located as well need to take that offer up on that bilstein drive.

Blacked my sensors yesterday and fitted my turini wheel stickers, little pieces like this just lift the car and make it more personal I think. Always the little bits that make the car, may have a BMS shifter going on soon ha.

So another break time free to play meant I had to do the A pillars the same as the rest of them B-C pillars are black so painted them to match. Again sandblasted them with fine bead to key them up and then masked and primed, blacked then Matt cleared them. Looks much better inside and from...

Seems to be a few dead cable ties in that bay son can we attend to those please, and the screw near the battery??? I see there is some touching in to be done on the rusty bolts also...... if we could have that done by end of the week I will be happy then . Good work!

Ha, drop off anytime it's easy to do mate Does look a lot better I don't know why Renault thought it was ok to chuck grey into the mix

Had a spare half hour at work today so at lunch I removed my grill, masked it up and then fine sand blasted it, best way to key up plastic as it keys everywhere perfectly for adhesion. Then cleaned it down, re masked it and painted it satin black with proper paint of course (I'm a painter)...

Much better colour choice that, being lighter suits it well. I'm waiting on matched inlets and having them powdered same as me wheels to lift the bay slightly. Never stops does it. Really need to meet up and go out in a b14'd clio before I take the leap and buy some.

So turinis happened, got them refurbished straight away in a custom colour me and the powder coated made up, wrapped them in Michelin Pilot Sport 3's and love them. Work so wel I think. Need to lower it now and do a caliper refurb or upgrade so will see what comes up. My sister is a...

Cool thread like the bits you're just buying and that shed. Yeah boy!!!!

Yeah like this so far mate. Brakes look good.

So picked up the Turinis today and they're cup et so that's a bonus. Two tyres are good two not so much but still legal. There getting refurbished and wrapped in pilot sport 3's I'm thinking. Going for a light anthracite colour. I toyed with white but think darker is better. Silvers to boring...

£150 ish depending on where you are they shouldn't be to bad. Maybe less if powder coating them, I would strongly recommend doing them properly, wheels take a bashing and ideally doing them once properly will last forever as spraying them ya self won't be. I'm a sprayer by trade and wouldn't...

So went to rollhard today, queue'd up for 2.5 hours and then got told another hour so left to go pub. On route got a massive blow out from a huge pothole, victim number 5 of the day apparently. so limped to a nearest driveway, luckily some lads came out and said there dad had a cliosport track...

Oh massive difference mate, gear changes feel lovely now. Mine was upside down and on metal doing nothing so it's a lot better now. Shakes abit but it's ok, and my lumpy idle prob don't help ha. Andy is a decent blood yeah, could tell strait away he knows his stuff. Safe hands indeed.

Had a very good day on the ClioSport 182 today. Picked her up from Engine Dynamics after having my Aux belt and tensioner doing, as well as a fault finding session regarding lumpy idle, me and Andy think it's injectors or cam timing, will be going on for further checks and a remap next month...

Mines a ktec racing system, unsure on size tbh il have to measure but I would think 2.25.

Is there a noticeable difference to motorway boom and dailying it? I've had a 172 de cat in silenced on my striped out cup but a 182 I need some advice. Is the story true it becomes better once the centre box is out?

Decent thread, well written, love the previous motors and this one also. Neat job so far.

First car check list is complete on this one and rather quickly, nice work fella. Sport bumper and grill for sure though, even paint the sport grill perhaps?
