I've just looked, doesn't look like he's a trader anymore. http://www.cliosport.net/forum/member.php?67460-Dan-M-A-D Hope that helps. I'd go as far as saying £ per fun it's hard to beat a 172. In fact I'm thinking about selling the M3 to focus more on this instead of having 2 projects/ish.

Dan @ M.A.D. Really nice bit of engineering to be honest and a great buy for £15.00. Still lots more progress to go. We've booked for the 8th at Oulton but with every day that passes it's look ever so more unlikely.

See I wanted to go 15's but at the time I was going to put them on the OEM wheels just for ease. I may attempt to fit the 205's and if they are that bad I'll simply have to raise the car.

As title suggests. I have a slight problem. I bought some 205-45-16 Federal RSR tyres before I bought the car as previously I was looking at a 182 FF but I went with a 172 with cup wheels. At the moment tyres are 195-45-16 but on a spirited corner I can hear the wheels touching the arch...

What an awful week I've had regarding the car. Firstly the exhaust, I couldn't see the OMP Spec N getting on track so I took it down to the nearest exhaust company. After a few attempts It would have been cheaper to simply buy a new system but we live and learn. Also I now have the EML on...

The EML light wasn't showing before though and the decat section wasn't altered?

Thank you, I'll try that and report back this afternoon.

It has a decat, not sure the lamda is the cause?

As title suggests... Just went to collect the car from an 'exhaust' company as I know the OMP Group N was going to struggle on track. So I've had a new larger back box fitted to try and keep the noise down. Anyway upon collecting it I noticed the EML light kept on, I thought this is...

I always try and use Redex on a new car I buy. Not sure why its just something I've always done. Never noticed much if any difference though...

I have pm'd you regarding some other bits.

Working from home today so I thought I'd do a little to the Clio. I've stripped as much out the back as I feel is right, I'm not sure why at a guess I'd say you save around 20kg but not much more. I think the weight saving could comes from the front door cards and OEM seats but until Xmas...

Have been thinking about a RARB but I think we're going to add / remove as we need. As you say I think its just a case of add when needed / feel comfy. I'll drop you a pm this week regarding the brakes. From Wiltshire to Staffordshire was a little under half a tank of fuel so around £25.00...

Well after many months browsing the forum I thought it was about time to join. After speaking and reading a lot of information on here I had a budget of ~£2000. When this came up I thought that looks ideal for what we want in a clio sport. The idea is to transform it into a track friendly...

This is correct, cheaper to insure an E46 M3 than it was an Evo 6. However the fact it was 470ish bhp didn't help.

Wow, really good progress. Stunning results!

They were 'RS' fog covers. Not keen on the VI bumper as it looks so wide from certain angles so when I bought the VI, they were a bonus for me.

Mine says dispatched on the 'Game' website. Nothing arrived yet so I'm guessing I'll receive it tomorrow. Not a major issue though, just looking forward to running around doing random things as never good with the missions.

Miss a few of mine, but upgrading parts on them becomes extremely addictive. Mine hardly come out the garage when I owned it.

Really enjoyed reading your progress thread! Well done!

Very similar to you, I've always wanted one and focus it for track use. So many tunable options for not alot of money. Cooper S supercharger is a common upgrade for more power.

One of my favourite cars 'Bang For Buck'. Easily tunable, very reliable and cheap to run. Very nice car you have yourself!

If you're feeling 'flush' snap on do a leak detector, can't say I've used one but a few specialists use them.

I don't actually mind the plates, I think they look good. Never really looked into the MPS, what is the performance like on these. Looks nice and looks like a clean example!

It's not the first thread I've read where the OEM VI wheel has deformed after being 'powder coated'.

Awesome, wasn't being funny with my reply. What made you go with the 4S ? Mine was basalt black with black interior.

I'm guessing you've not drove these cars... I bought my first 4S for 2 reasons, 1) Believing the sales rep 2) The 996 4S had the 'turbo' body and turbo 'style' wheels. Also being the later 996 it had the 3.6 engine which is a much improved version over the earlier 3.4 but do suffer with piston...

I meant the 4 in general 996 & 997...

and that's arguable the worse handling (911) they did. Masses off understeer on the way in, followed by masses of oversteer on the way out. Pushed hard it oversteers but going into the corners its prone to understeer so makes the perfect line a little difficult.
