Thank you! Be warned (IMO) for some strange reason they'll look not only different in the flesh but not as good up close. When you stand back say 20 ft they have a completely different look about them. Side on and quarter angle is all good ?
Spent the evening working everything out ready for CS18. I took out the PMS 10mm rear shims as the wheels sat just too proud for my liking, then put a 5mm spacer on up front as the original Eibach 16mm spacers were too much. Pretty damn happy with how it sits now, just need to pick up the new...
The only noise I've heard people describe is they sound like your wheel bearings are f@@ked! I wouldn't say they're unbearable though. Mark Abbott uses them on his daily, I can't seem to tag him in.
A bit of an impulse buy! I saw these on photos on the Internet so I called John at R Sport to enquire on price and availability. I then ordered them and picked them up last week, I also ordered new Yokohama ADO8R tyres from Ben Patey and picked them up today in Bracknell. Arrived home and had...
If I'd have missed that run they were heading back over 10 days after, but glad I caught them at the right time as the parts i ordered I wanted before the CS weekender at Blyton. With their involvement with the Clio Cup I imagine they're constantly going over to France picking up parts for the...
Give them a call direct, I spoke to John and had no problems with my order. I was lucky they were heading over to France the next day to pick up a load of parts so mine was on the list. He was quite helpful
On a side note, any Clio Cup specific parts can be ordered through R Sport based in Maidstone.
There's a PDF file for all the parts

Spoke to John at R Sport today and the parts are in ? as they're at Rockingham this weekend supporting the UK Clio Cup I've made arrangements to head over to Maidstone tomorrow (Thursday 9th August) to pick them up.
Exciiiiited!
Hmm, so browsing the Internet a while back i came across a couple of photos that took my interest pretty quickly regarding the Mk4 Clio. After doing a bit of digging I managed to find the relevant part number, now the only company I know that deal in RenaultSport parts is R Sport. One for the...
About 6:40am this morning (Tuesday) pulling onto the A127 from the Rayleigh Weir roundabout slip road and sat behind me. No point in waving as I was in the Peugeot 407 estate work car ?
Lowered and wheels spacered, looks real good
Hey Micah! Good to have you on board, yes that convoy back on the M20 yours looks so on point lowered on Cooksports and the wheels with the offset you've chosen. It's a great looking 220, purposeful, everything on it is there to do a job. Be good to catch up again ?
So we're bang up to date and pretty much ready for the Cliosport weekender at Blyton the end of August. I feel I've ticked all the boxes on the Clio in changing parts that will help out on track like the Brembo 4 pot calipers, H&R coilovers and the Pro Alloy FMIC kit. One thing I might change is...
Not driven much but when it comes out it's a nice opportunity to take a few more snaps. A date for the intercooler is arranged and that's the Saturday 4th of August back down in Ashford Kent. Chris King is now the mechanic of choice to do all the aftermarket work, to keep the Clio on record I'll...
Another upgrade I wanted to do was change the OE intercooler to a front mount, I did this on the 200 with great effect with the Airtec FMIC. I had a result with that one as Airtec needed to borrow a 200 to mock up some new products, I let them use mine as I was fairly local so in return we did a...
It's been a while since updating the thread since June, I have posted a couple of threads in between so I won't bore everyone again too much with the same content.
The main contribution to July was in the first week being the roadtrip to Monaco making it into a holiday taking 2 days each way...
To make the 4 pots work
R26 calipers (Red to match OE)
PMS 4 pot bracket kit
Brake hoses from PMS sold separately
Brake pads, I'm using OE R26 brake pads
Have to use min 16mm spacers to clear the wheels
I bought Mr Pink pins as they're better than OE pad retaining pins
Motul 600 RBF brake...
Meg 250 are a different offset and believe they use bigger discs. It might mean reworking the PMS brackets or designing new to make the different offset work. The Meg boys run 17" wheels on their 250s so it's potentially doable, with a bit of work.
It's a better experience driving abroad, in Europe. Over here we're overpopulated with cars so it's rare to enjoy any kind of long distance drive.
Its certainly an experience I can highly recommend, being able to take in such scenery en route, photographing it along the way.
My uncle lives...
Aah the 80kmh limit, that came into force the first day of the trip. I didn't know until Matt told me, i did wonder why I was seeing conflicting 80 and 90kmh signs. No worries at all, I stuck around the 90 when I was on those roads heading to my mates as it was all non toll on the first day. I...
It is indeed! It's Prima Racing's old demo car, they used this to develop their parts. Painted carbon bonnet, caged, on bodies, 220bhp. Used on sprints and hillclimbs, Matt took it with him as well as an Odyssey Blue 172 which is now registered in France.
