Next job was to remove the stereo as that won't be needed anymore!... Plus this made room for me to fit my custom din switch panel... Really pleased with how it looks!

So made a start on her this afternoon, took the custom induction set up of my ph1 and set about fitting to the cup...

It needs a bit of tlc but will hopefully get there with it. Yeah, I've got a standard ph1 but couldn't resist this when it came up as a lot of the time consuming bits had all ready been done.

Cheers! I'm not really local to any but determined to do a few at least this year!

Ok well I have always wanted a cup for the track and finally got my hands on one. It's already been stripped out, has coilovers, seats and harnesses, rear brace, and some wind deflectors, so not a bad start. My plan is to continue with the track theme, general tlc all round and add my own touch...

Because I bought this at the weekend, always wanted a cup!...

Now listed for sale on eBay!

Castleford West Yorkshire. No, sorry the wheels are being sold on the car. Thanks

Well ended up buying a clio cup today so this ph1 is now for sale if anyone is interested? I'd be looking for offers around £800 for the car as she stands today I.e standard car. Most of the bits will be finding there way on to the other car apart from the cup suspension and rear brakes maybe...

Few other bits arrived today, Brembo Max grooved high carbon front discs with Mintex race pads plus a set if MLR braided hoses... Plus added some obligatory tow race decals, I ordered black but turned up red!...

Finally got round to fitting the switches to the din panel. I've gone for a push button start, fuel pump switch and an aux switch plus x2 LEDs one if witch I hope to use as a shift light.... Standard panel... Drilled and switches installed... Fitted... Really pleased with how it looks...

Ha ha cheers will do!

Set of Clio cup shockers with lowering springs purchased which should help the looks and handling for now, ultimate plan will be coilovers....

The car came with a horrible cheap aftermarket gear knob fitted. Plus the gaitor clips had snapped so managed to source a full OE replacement item....

£300 for the pair delivered to the door inc side mounts & runners!

Cheers, I love these little cars, can't wait to get it on the track!

Direct from Corbeau! :up:

Also managed to get the new omp wheel fitted. Before, the old wheel had seen better days... Much better now... Getting there slowly but surely!

Another parcel arrived, new rear mintex pads & discs with bearings.... Then decided to crack on stripping the rear seats and few other bits out and was left with a nice mess! .... Good clean out later, much better... Then fitted the engine cover I had previously taken off cleaned up and...

Ha ha tell me about it, they are on the list to be changed also don't worry! 😌

Another slightly bigger parcel arrived today... My brand new spanking corbeau seats with side mounts and runners!... Really pleased with these! Bargain too IMO. :up:

New OMP boss and wheel arrived today to replace the tired Renault item... :cool:

They are new, I bought them used and was actually thinking of sticking with the original alloys now so I could be tempted to sell!

Agreed and cheers!

I think it's just the camera angle and my drive, it's still on OE factory suspension. Here's another pic from a higher angle which looks better...

Agreed! My drive is slightly off camber so looks worse than it is. I wanted to go coilover route but might just end up on springs for now to keep the costs under control.

Cheers. They are just the standard Renault items by the look of it!

Yeah body work is pretty tidy after a good clean, it had been sat for months when I bought it. Bonnet needs a lick of paint but other than that for her ages it's quite tidy. Mechanically well just from driving it I know it needs brakes all round, has a knock when setting off ( suspect gearbox...

Also fitted a din blanking panel that will house a few switches in the future plus replaced the faulty standard clock display with an LED volt meter to keep an eye on the battery charge...

Cheers, long way to go yet but only had it 2 weeks! Ha. Managed to source a set of 16" oz wheels as not a fan of the black f1 wheels. Plan is to refurb them silver and use for the track. In the meantime I gave the 16's a good clean up... Went to fit them but the car hasn't come with...
