Lol, how many do you want? I’ve squillions. 😅

In Maldon mate, not far from Chelmsford/Colchester. I’ll have to keep my eyes peeled for one. 🙂

This is the thing. Modern cars have become so capable and with performance so exploitable by the masses. Often this is at the expense of neutered feel, feedback and enjoyment. Cars are more impressive than they have ever been, theyre all things to all people now. A modern hot hatch will run...

Couple of sponges. 😅👌🏼

Oh right. Lol. Wasn’t quite sure what I was supposed to be looking at. Is it a straight swap then?

Could always plug em up just for the bed in process. 😅

What will?

Lol, kinda been there, done it and got the Tshirt of a big turbo road car mate and it’s alright for a while. You soon get bored and want more even though you can’t fully use what you already have. My Cayman is only 360bhp and you can’t even use all of that. My impreza motor is being collected...

C’mon mate. You know the rules of these slippery slopes. It’s never finished. 😂 Jokes aside, I’m thinking once the dampers are on and dialed in, I think there’s little else for now. Target is my ultimate roadgoing 182 so that means keeping it sensible and maximising on what’s already a great...

So I guess this has kinda come a bit of a way in only 6 months, without listing all the new OEM bits such as clutch, belts, bushes blah blah. This is where it now stands in terms of changes even though I’m keeping it standard. 🙈🙈🙈 Inferno Clio 182 FF & Cup Packs Engine: ITG Maxogen air...

That’s the plan. OEM++ Indeed. Hopefully try and protect as many components for as long as possibje Cheers dude, dropped you a PM with the buckles. Tried to make the install as clean looking as possible Thanks chap

Lol. Cheers chaps, glad you approve. 😎👍🏼

So I’ve been struggling to find time to get these in the car but finally pleased to say they’re in. I spent time removing the birds from the side mounts so as to not scratch the shells, painting washers and capping bolts to make it looks as close to an OEM finish as possible. The car finally...

You could probably twist it off with some Stillsons. But refer to my comment above.

Always the way dude. Chances are you’ll f**k it getting it off anyway.

Lovely little updates mate 👌🏼

Yep. Needs trimming about 50mm off each end but very good quality for the money.

Lol, with respect I built that when I was living at home with no wife and only my c**k to keep. It’s easy to throw all your cash at a car when you’ve nothing else to spend it on. However as I said, it’s apples and oranges. But for a sensible budget you could do your Clio with a refresh, and...

Firstly, I know it’s apples and oranges. For that I apologise. But this was still well over double it’s intended power/torque. But in support of my last response, I built my impreza motor properly which was fed with a GT35R running on Syvecs. Didn’t get greedy and it was wound back to 576bhp...

Personally I’d go low boost turbo. You know you’ll achieve your power/torque goals. Just focus on the usual problem areas so things like effective turbocharger support, improved hardwearing for feeds and drains. Go OTT on heat management and cooling. Turbo motors arrived very effective and...

I was looking at over a grand last year and the best that got to was about £975 fitted. I was going to buy them at the end of this month anyway ready for spring so was dead chuffed to find a saving like that. Asked a mate who’s a pretty large scale tyre dealer and he said to snap the deal up...

Just a heads up for the 197/200 or Megane guys, 10% off at Black Circles today. Life got busy at the end of last year and I barely used the Cayman, so held off to buy tyres this spring. I’ve just got 4 brand new Michelin Cup2s for £823 fully fitted at Tyre-Smart in Witham. Almost £150 cheaper...

Got a chance to have a further look at this today. As said the PPs are a wide seat so with the runners lining up on the door side, they in turn foul the tunnel side. The runners themselves are too wide to align with the holes on the tunnel side location so the bolts cannot be located anyway...

One other thing if this is your first Trackday, take the following 2 items: Compressor to pump your tyres back up at the end of the day. You may find you let some air out after your first session as the tyres will heat up far more than they do on the road. The air inside will expand and...

4 pots and 2118s aren’t exactly light either lol. Just because it happened to be sitting there. I’ve just put a rear AST 5100 on the scales. 3.2kg Perhaps if I remember I’ll weigh a cup damper/spring when they come off.

Did you actually weigh the rear coilover vs the separate spring/damper setup? Just interested to know if there was actually much difference? 🙂

Considering everything inside a Clio other than the seats is made from paper and weighs less than a fart I’d say you’ve done alright. Then factor in you put in a huge chunk of metal in its place and are still 30kg down on a stock car. Until you go to a T45 cage, GRP panels, plastic windows...

Just my personal opinion. Don’t bother with drilled discs, they do nothing for performance and are likely to crack. Some plain Brembo HC discs will be perfect. Add to those a good quality pad. Many people like the Ferodo DS2500, although I prefer the offerings from performance friction such as...

Few little trinkets arrived for WZD yesterday. Seat belt receptacles for me to progress my Recaro install. 16mm front spacers to suit the 2118s. And lastly, a cheeky little dutch delivery from AST/Moton. Thought I’d get some detail photos before they go on as they’re unlikely to ever...
