At the beginning of the month fitted my coilovers, solid top mounts and a few other bits
Since then there had been a creaking noise (sounds like a creaking floor board) when going over bumps
The bits I had fitted had once been on my 172 for a few months then when I got my 182 I swapped it all...
At the weekend I had some time to fit the front suspension and brakes that I had on my black 172.
The suspension parts I fitted included bilstein b14 coilovers, Pms solid top mounts and strut brace, Powerflex wishbone bushes, new ball joints and track rod ends
I also fitted my brembo...
Been watching this since you started the thread and been looking forward to it being completed
The work you have put into it has definitely paid off ! It looks so good
Looking forward to seeing the mapping results [emoji1303]
Thanks mate yeh hoping to do most of it myself when I comes to it like the engine build and making of brackets and other bits. Got the other car to get it all fitted and running right then can just swap everything over
I agree sort of goes abit golden when the sun catches it I think

Hello
I have been on here a couple of years now and last weekend I bought my third Clio.
My previous was a black 172 Ph2 which I had modified abit. This included bilsteins, Pms bits and brembo callipers.
It was @couzens petrol blue previously and am pretty pleased with it so far.
The...
So Over my time off over Christmas I fitted the brembo callipers along with new disc and pads.
I made my brackets at work in my free time and machined the hub and made a bracket to suit this meant I didn't have to machine the calliper at all and also moving the calliper around the centre of...
They are 280 discs And I made the brackets myself.
The pads don't cover the whole disc it's just because they are brand new discs there's no markings yet
Over the last few weeks I have been collecting even more bits for a front end refresh to fit over Christmas while I'm off from work
I have now got new, ball joints, eibach camber bolts and Powerflex steering rack bushes and the new top engine mount they do
I have also been collecting and...
Since last time a few little bits have happened,
Firstly the car had its MOT which it passed no advisories.
I also have my personal plate fitted too now.
I spent some time realigning the exhaust as it vibrated on a heat shield now an then.
Also fitted some Powerflex rear shock bushes . As...
That would be handy if you could mate ? The main ones I need would be hole diameters, distances between the mounting hole centres and the measure to from the hole centres to the centre of where the disc will locate.
Thanks again
Yeh I do and, will be Ordering them this week so will when I get them.
Yeh just everything I needed to make the brackets and the dimensions to make the calliper sit correctly on the disc.
Yeh it's made a huge difference mate they are pretty solid but still comfortable for the road .
Did a long motorway trip with them and made the car me so much more confident at higher speeds if you know what I mean. the the old suspension which actually got abit dodgey when going for it...
I just had it lying about in the garage no idea where I got it
Can't remember the size of what you need
I'll check and have a quick look if I get a minute today
I made it, it's really simple to make just make a cardboard template then I just used half mm Ali and snips to cut out the shape
Then just get some rubber trim and fitted it to make it look good
Update time...
Last weekend I had a Friday off so got the Bilsteins fitted and also the PMS solid top mounts and strut brace.
Then I've spent the last week adjusting them to work out what position is best to have them in
This was before (I know the car needs a clean :L)
Rears...
