Like the drop mate, what coilys you got? Need a stuby arial as well ;)

Haha keep it on the down low....or you could get one of the plug ins? Not as effective as a proper remap but might be worth a shot?

You got any pics mate :) what colour you doing the bumper then?

It can look good, depending on what alloys you get bud, but imo silver or anthracite might look nicer :)

Not done masses yet as i havent had it long. It was part modded already but a bit.....chavy. So trying to make it more oem before i do what i want. So far i have hidden the exhaust behind the bumper, debadged it, i have the bumper strips at the sprayers getting colour coded as we speak. Then...

Looking good mate, wanna keep my eye on this as its practically the same project as mine :) u gonna go for coilys or springs?

Does anyone know if there is a thread or a website where there is a bulb guide for mk3's (there is one on here for mk2's). Should be simple but all the codes etc are confusing :/

Well he is my brothers mates dad who owns his own paint/body shop so i get it a little cheaper. Getting front, side and back bumper strips for about 120 quid. That includes paint. But not sure if he makes the paint or gets it direct from somewhere? But his work is good :) fricking pain in the...

Hi mate, im getting mine done as we speak by a professional sprayer. You can do it yourself but make sure you get the paint mixed correctly by a reliable source as halfords etc can be a bit hit or miss. Definetly worth doing though as it makes all the difference, one of the most important mods...

Not really mate, only drove it for a day since ive done it so will be able to monitor it better 2moro, but i didnt notice much difference. I think with the size of the turbo its not gonna matter too much.

Looking forward to seeing this project unfold, keep us updated mate. U gonna look to get coilys or sticking with the springs?

Yeah as far as i know, the boost will be minimal.....probs just the air filter making it sound more extreme than it is. Btw thanks for sending me that plug and tubing mate :)

Tbh. The noise I can live with....the main thing is that I dont want to damage the turbo or decrease its life.

Is it possible to have a valve where i cant hear anything during release of the accelerator? Currently im getting flutter during nearly every gear change and everytime i release the accelerator. Its not particularly quiet either. I do also have an aftermarket induction kit/air filter (cone...

Nah not messing around with the turbo etc now, if i wanted a fast car atm i would save for a sport lol just wanted rid of that chav valve :)

Yeah i think i read somewhere about it....when its running high boost (which as far a i know, mine is just standard) thats when its starts surging which is bad for the blades, but with low pressure it shouldnt really damage the turbo, just stall it. Now im glad i get a fun flutter noise inside...

Hi, I removed the dump valve on my 1.2TCE clio that the previous owner had on. I plugged one end off with a metal cap and on the other end i kept a little bit of the tube on and plugged that with a screw. Now instead of the pssssst sound you get from the dump valve i get a flutter sound...

Im just so torn lol luckily i got months to think about it :) im really into the calibres, i dont wanna be classed as trying to do "euro" just because i buy them wheels. I reckon it will look nice with them on with out going full euro (thread on here somewhere with a photoshop done) . Ps that...

Ended up removing my twin tips and hiding the exhaust mate. It was sat under the original bumper which didnt look good. Replaced with a single pipe which is now hidden so i can lower it 70mm at the back. What exhaust set up u got now?

Hi everyone, got a mk3 clio in silver and want some new tail lights for it. When i bought it it had tinted rear lights and i dont like them so wandering if there is any nice simple non chavy aftermarket tails out there? Thanks :)

Lol i think i own that now.....exhaust has gone and dump valve is going this week :)

Cheers guys, you've all helped me a lot :)

Hi everyone, if any on here has an aftermarket exhaust fitted could you pop a picture up of where its sat/positioned as I'm gonna change mine a fair bit and need some inspiration. Non sport mk3 if possible :)

Looks smart, did it come with them wheels or you get em off ebay etc?

Yeah, i like the canasta wheel (the one off the dynamique s i think).....simple and nice, but again, hard to find for some reason :(

Yeah man, seen them on a silver mk3 on here somewhere and they look smart. Are they rare? and more importantly, how much?

Haha at the euro quote, tbh mate, i don't think i could pull off euro with the clio, will just leave that to polo owners. I just want to make it look tastefully sporty. Slowly getting rid of the chavyness that the owner before me added, but its not cheap lol

Lights I couldn't care less about atm, know what you mean about the exhaust, tbh i like it, but i don't like where its positioned. Would have been good if he had embedded it in. Wasn't planning on getting wheels till summer anyway but really want to lower soon as the ride height is just...

Hi, got a silver clio mk3, pretty standard, only mods done by person I bought it off. Gonna buy ap coilovers in about 2 weeks then I need some alloys but am stuck on which ones I like and even more difficult, the colour i should get them. Like I said, pretty standard and sitting on stilts. I...

Sorry about the quality of the photos, pitch black outside :/
