    I need Harness Mounting Help (pictures)

    Hey guys, sorry to hijack an old thread but I have a small issue(?) with my harnesses. I bought the harnesses months ago when I bought my clio and only just had another look at them today after about 6 months. The parts that bolt to the car are solid mounting brackets, which are not able to come...

    Matty's One-Seven-Two PH2 - Track Car Build

    Small update. Finally had a go at sorting out the wiring loom in the car. I'm not competent enough to go snipping out wires everywhere so I had to make do with leaving almost the entire loom in, but just hiding it all out of the way. Before and after pics. Used a shitload of electrical tape (is...

    Clio 182 track car info help

    As above. I bought these plates for my track car, super cheap and should do the job just fine. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/371167531157?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2648&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Just drill a hole in the floor and silicone them from underneath.

    Matty's One-Seven-Two PH2 - Track Car Build

    Been almost 2 months since I've posted anything on this thread but that doesn't mean I haven't been busy. A lot of the stuff I've done I won't bother showing until it's finished as I've been slowly working my way through a few big jobs at once. Did a few aero mods to the front bumper. A lot of...

    Cuttng holes in front bumper

    Just a quick simple question. When people cut holes in the numberplate area on their front bumper, do they also cut holes in the crash bar that is directly behind it too?

    **show us Your Engine Bay**

    Still a load of work to do but this is it's current state. Definitely going to change the matte black to gloss black, and need to spray a few things like the ECU cover and bracket.

    Wiring diagram for a 2005 182

    Did you end up just leaving the full loom in behind your dash? I really want to strip some of mine out but too worried about chopping something Im not supposed to and not being able to fix it again!

    Hey mate, did you ever find one in the end?

    My 182 Track Car Project

    I asked that question because I read above that you bought harness eyelets but on a second (and less stupid) thought I'm guessing those are for the lap straps on the harnesses.

    My 182 Track Car Project

    Looking great. Are you attaching the harness to eyelets in the rear seat belt points or to your rear strut brace?

    My 182 Track Car Project

    Looking awesome. The green, silver and black combo works so well. I still have some canards sitting in my garage that I have to put on, how did you decide where to position them and also what angle do you have them at?

    Roll Cage Dimensions

    Here's a link to the MSA Blue Book, up to date and gives pretty much all the info you need to build a good cage: http://www.safetydevices.com/uploads/ckfinder/MSA%20Blue%20Book%202016.pdf

    Matty's One-Seven-Two PH2 - Track Car Build

    Not too much to update on, progress has been abit slow but decided to give the engine bay a quick tidy up and a paint. Red and black to stick with the future colour scheme of the car. Still need to paint a few other things like the fluid reservoirs and ECU cover.

    Is an anti-roll bar necessary with a full 6 point cage?

    Getting the cage for made for almost free from a friend. When I say I'm on a budget I more-so mean that I'd rather not spend more than I need to, but at the same time buying an ARB wouldn't be an issue at all really.

    Is an anti-roll bar necessary with a full 6 point cage?

    Just a simple question really. I understand an ARB is to stop body roll under fast cornering, but if I have a full 6-point cage and rear strut is it going to be worth my while of using one? I'm on a limited budget so don't want to spend more than I have to.

    More weight loss...

    Thanks for the advice. Think I am going to mask off the weld areas and paint it before it goes in. Thought about grinding off the paint in the weld areas but the paint used at my dad's work is a 4-stage paint process designed for marine use (think structures on boats and oil rigs) so its pretty...

    More weight loss...

    I've had the cage custom made by a guy at my dad's work, so I've got all the pieces but none of it has been welded in yet nor has the inside of the car been painted. I was going to paint everything at my mate's house in his garage, however I've toyed around with the idea of getting the cage...

    More weight loss...

    That looks awesome! May I ask how you painted the cage? Did you just mask everything off and paint the cage? I'm asking because I'm getting a custom cage and can't decide which is the best order to paint, either the cage or the car first, as I'm painting my cage and interior different colours...

    What discs/pads setup do you use on track?

    Seems to me that pretty much the majority of people use standard Brembo discs and pads for the rear. Has anyone had experience using Mintex discs and pads on the rear? At £40 cheaper than the Brembo's it would be helpful to me as I'm on a tight budget. Ebay link for mintex pads and...

    Matty's One-Seven-Two PH2 - Track Car Build

    Small update. Bought some material for my door cards from Cutplasticsheeting.co.uk. Its 3mm Foamex Board, used this because its pretty light, easy to cut, and has a nice matte finish. Was pretty cheap too, only cost about £20 for the two front door cards. I have also decided on getting...

    Alarm Question in a track car

    Disconnected mine and haven't had any problems with locking or starting. They're just attached to the wiring with male-female spade connectors so you can just re-attach them if there are any problems.

    I had this issue but just made a simple aluminium bracket with 2 holes drilled in it and bolted it on.

    What discs/pads setup do you use on track?

    Thanks! How much fluid do you usually need? Whats the difference between DS2500 and DS3000 pads? As I see more people using DS2500's but rarely 3000's. So I should just buy standard OEM discs and pads for rear, correct? Is it best to get these from one of the traders on the site or just from...

    What discs/pads setup do you use on track?

    Can anyone give me advice on what pads and discs to use for track? I know there are loads of threads out there but many people are indecisive and list multiple options. Just interested in a straight forward answer about what you use on track, how much they cost and what you think of them. As...

    Matty's One-Seven-Two PH2 - Track Car Build

    Don't really know to be honest. Previous owner said they were taken off a PH1 172, is the offset on a PH1 different to PH2? But I can tell that theyre quite wide alloys because I had to use a deep socket to fully tighten the wheel bolts. Would like to find out what they are, can't seem to see...
