Cheers George! Brakes arrived yesterday, spot on as always mate thanks!

Yeah it's very loud mate heard every little stone hit the car etc lol It's not a daily though so i can live with it, it's actually ok though.

Update Spent the last couple of days finishing off little jobs on the car, inner tie rods + ends, Aerocatches, steering rack loop and a few others. Took it out the garage first time since it arrived last year, first thing I noticed was how hard it was to manoeuvre at low speed with the pas...

Nope I oRiginally had the old spacers in place and was the same, still not level. You must of been lucky or never used a spirit level as most others have this issue. They don't look too bad until you out the spirit on.

Harness arrived, matches the colour scheme perfect :wink: Untitled by Arran Bell, on Flickr Spent a while wondering on what way to mount it all but in the end went with a way I seen @Sir_Dave describe in another thread with the Schroth bracket and a couple of extra M10 eyebolts, so thanks...

Just washers mate, going to look in to getting some steel spacers made I think.

Just fitted mine with OMP subframes. Removed the sliders, however had to space up the centre side as the subframe sits off level, can't understand why it would be made like this!

@NorthloopCup have you got any pictures of where you have mounted yours? Unsure on the best option for the lap belts.

Delivery today! Untitled by Arran Bell, on Flickr And the seats threw in, still to bolt down and get harnesses. Excuse the poor photo was too dark at the front! Glad i went for XL! For reference I'm a 34" waist, i think the standard would of been too tight. Untitled by Arran Bell, on Flickr...

Obviously not haha ill see now they are, if too big I'll change.

Yeah I think I seen someone using them with the standard belts.

Don't like being to tight, I'm 34" waist and been told there snug with 32".

Yeah I got mine in XL mate and they seemingly come with the side mounts and runners too. Never knew that with the seats, good to know! God knows long list still to do :( Sweet! Straight forward enough to fit?

Cheers mate! Yeah they seem cracking for the money, £300 for the pair however not FIA approved that'll be where the price drops. Perfect for me just starting out getting the feel for it all still. I did look at the Revolutions but i think i prefer the smaller seats, as assuming you'll need FIA...

Not done much as of late due to being away with work but got a day on the car yesterday. First was to set about fixing the leak coming from the 5th gear cover on the gearbox. Ordered one from Adam along with a new earth cable and set about fitting. A bit awkward to wiggle out but managed by...

Nice work on the bumper catches, ill be doing my next week dreading it!

I have an Airbus wing right next to the wind farm I'm on guessing it's going your way!

I always used to worry about miles. Until now, got my works van in 2013 only on 34k but I've abused it like something else, something no one would know if buying. I used to assume lower the miles the better it will be, now I know lol

I think yours is best standard as is a good example :up:

I measured mine to be 72mm, not sure if most are this or not. Probably best checking once you've stripped down.

I got all the parts off eBay when refurbishing mine: Big Red seal kit with new pistons http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-Clio-Sport-2000-2005-FRONT-Brake-Caliper-Seal-Piston-Repair-Kit-BRKP87-/271651814388?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&fits=Model:Clio&hash=item3f3fb5bbf4 New slider kit...

Looks rapid mate.

Renault only do the ball joints with wishbones. I got some Lemforder ones off eBay for about £14.

Brilliant cheers!

@Budgie whats the easiest way to replace the 5th gear cover? Will I need to lower the subframe?

Step away from the tools Marc :wink:

Is there not a head on the other side?

This thread revival is making me miss this car!

Yep would agree, nice and simple is the way forward.
