Fitted new Alpine speakers in the front doors as the passenger side speaker was damaged, will change the rear speakers in the next couple of weeks for the same Alpine speakers too
I've mentioned this in another thead that with the 60mm cup fitment there are no middle road priced coilover kits. You either buy V Maxx/K Tec, then to the other end of the spectrum with Spax, H&R, AST. At least with the 54mm fitment you have more options up the price range, IMO for £500-£600...
I'd imagine the Spax RSX kit costs much more than the FK setup. IIRC pre the big discounts from many retailers the SPAX kits were about £799.
Without a doubt I would have ordered another set of FKs but the RB has 60mm 'cup' hubs
FK Konigsports coilover kit, for the price they're spot on with adjustable damping, ride height, camber. Dampers are by Koni
I had a set new on the white track 172, brilliant..
AFAIK the ET43 offset was down to the cup race cars being so low it sat the wheels inside the arches more (pub talk?) I believe they come in ET38 too, I wanted to fill out the arches that little bit, it doesn't rub.
Really, really appreciate all the comments :o :)
Its riding on the Spax RSX coilovers, wheels are ET43, 15mm spacers up front, 5mm rear spacers and geometry set up by Code Red Motorsport.
Just so happy how the Clio has turned out over the last 4-5 months. To be honest there's not much more I...
Ok, i did a deal with club member JamesT87 and picked these up yesterday. I decided even though i liked to the look of the white Trophy Turinis i didnt want to run on 16s, the Primer coloured OZ F1s were always going to be slaggy track wheels and prefered the 15" ride. There was only 1 option in...
Its a timing strut, at the start and finish line there's a beam in which the black strut 'cuts' through. On the day everyone has 2 practice runs and 4 official runs that are timed, every car has 1 fitted
My friend drove his phs1 Clio 172 in the North Weald sprint today, midweek i asked if he'd fancy taking mine for a run out too. My camera was took rubbish to take 'action' shots but they had an official photograher there so hopefully there might be some pics coming my way soon.

I'm exactly the same, I file all the invoices (mainly Renault dealer) in date order, I keep the service and MOT slips separate to parts invoices BUT keep them all in 1 folder. I have a draw dedicated to all my paperwork i.e credit card, bank statements in separated labelled folders so I know if...
So white Turinis and OE bullets makes this RB 1 of THE best or if not THE best Clio on the site? It seems like i can't stray from what it was like when i bought it, as it is well known in the club for soo many years in its white turini setup. I'm not fussed, it's nice/interesting to read peoples...
They're superglued on with sealant as well. Its a 2 part adhesive that goes off within seconds, fingers crossed they stay on. I dont leave it anywhere unseen so it should hopefully be ok
Took the plunge and fitted these this evening, i really wanted these as the details are raised and not decals. So when a set came up for sale i had to buy them :) Now toying with a carbon rear insert to match the front splitter.

On my way home from work today (Southend bound A127) I actually drove past another RB 182 with a Cliosport sticker on the tailgate glass. I thought what the heck I'll wave ( in the coolest way possible) to acknowledge the fact I've seen the car, in the club too type thing. I didn't look long...
IMO hiding the fact it's an non FIA, MSA approved quality cage with a sticker from a respected roll cage company.
"Aaaah so you bought your cage from SD"
"Erm......... Yeah... No...... Looks good dunnit"
Its not a Safety Devices cage so IMO they shouldn't be on there
Yes, it looks good, but...
Did a basic Cliosprt search and found 2 options
