Exhaust has been rehung as a temp fix - going for the Ktec decat pipe so will get this ordered up along with new centre and front clamp/hangers.
The knocking noise has been traced to the RH engine mount being more or less completely shot so ordered the Vibratechnics mount instead. Proved it to...
Tomorrow will see the car at MB Motorsport in prep for getting the exhaust sorted and investigating the knock from either the new driveshaft being fitted wrong or the top mount being on the way out.
Today I got rid of the useless rear wiper;
And alongside the former beast of my ST;

N111 JST is mine - black 182 in Peterlee near the roundabout after coming along from A19? Remember seeing yours.
Will upload the pics I took - not that many but am sure I got most of the Clios

Started with snowfoam before clay baring most of the car and then washing with lambs wool wash mitt before drying with a drying towl. Finished with 1 thick layer of wax - if tomorrow is nice will give it another coat and a layer of...
Well fitted what turned out to be the strangest coilovers have had the misfortune of fitting. Seem to be working ok on the car for road use but cant see them staying on the car for long. Ktec coilovers which are the spitting double of the TA Technix I fitted on my brothers Clio 1.2 (Matty1995 on...

Cheers for the info matey
All is well - managed to speak to Ktec and the one they have sent should be spot on and might be here tomorrow along with the coilovers.

Looks stunning matey - cant wait to get it perfected - just ordered a new OSF driveshaft and now slightly worried about the shaft being wrong.
The 172 Cup track is slightly different but I assume the gearbox is Cup and the driveshafts Non Cup in order to retain the standard Non Cup track.
Hope...
