Had an absolutely amazing time at csf this weekend, will gather some pictures here as they surface but the car did tremendously well, it felt like all the cash I've been sinking into it was all justified [emoji23] only issue I had was overheating brakes but he 1144s are only good road pads so...
Quick engine bay clean, new coolant bottle, pipes, dephaser solenoid seal all done just need new cams so I've got an excuse to get the rocker cover off and painted [emoji23] and got Maself a wee helmet for csf in August [emoji7]

Forgot to put up some pics of the beam brackets I picked up recently, buffed down and gold to match absolutely everything else [emoji23] hopefully I'll get bushes in soon, also picked up my momo boss from the post office today, just awaiting the new wheel [emoji276]

Bc's on and the car drives amazingly they're far better than cooksports and cup shocks, not as stiff as I'd thought with the spring rates, new carbon door protectors aswell, quite like them!

Springs for the bc's were flaking so their gold too [emoji136]♀️ along with calliper carriers, gunna get it all powdercoated at some point so it's all perfect but it's good enough for now!

Did some little bits today, some progress on the replacement rear beam, almost finished spraying it, got the bushes out with some super high tech home made tools [emoji23], took the clear plex windscreen film off as its totaly ruined and scratched, the difference is rediculous, and got my heel...
Also update eon the carbon bonnet, I'm having an absolute nightmare finding one, there's a couple of websites but there are no reviews or anything so I've been hesitant

So not long ago I passed my trade test and decided to treat the clio as these came up at a good price. Ended up with a set of bc racing br series coilovers with custom spring rates, 11kg front and 8kg rear. It's going to be stiff as f**k. I also collected a rear beam and going to get rear hub...
A don't have anything sorted yet unfortunately but I'll probably end up getting a carbon skinned fiberglass one if nothing else is available

After the carbon look, if I was gunna get a fiberglass one and get it painted I'd just fix mines for less, but I fancy this so am gunna keep hunting till I see somethin decent or someone has a good idea [emoji23]

Pretty sure that's what the one from mad motors is, there's doesn't appear to be many places selling them, none thatve been recommended by anyone on here at least
Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
I thought that too which was why I was wondering if there was a trusted place to get one from, maybe a supplier on here or somethin would've been ideal

I'm after a carbon bonnet as mines has started to bubble and I'd rather buy a carbon one than have mines sprayed.
I've seen a couple sites to buy new like madmotors and ebay, does anyone have experience with them or know who the go to would be for the best quality/price?
I always see...
Got a wash in today and noticed that you can see some gold through the front grill which I love but it's hard to get photos of haha, decided since the cams I was after are no longer available I'm gunna save up a few quid and get a carbon bonnet, f**k it, mines is starting to get a tiny bubble at...
Finally some progress! Polybushed subframe on and lookin glorious!! Couple new ps3's for the front to match the back, will keep the rainsport 3s for winter, boot sorted tm so the spoiler doesn't catch, exhaust hanger on and the exhaust finally sits right!! Happy days, got a bit bored of the clio...
Feel like it's been ages since I've done anything to the clio, subframe and exhaust trims still sitting, now the snows gone ill hopefully be a bit more inclined [emoji23]
Did order a poly centre exhaust hanger which I collected today, and also a carbon fuel cap cover, plenty to do!

Picked up a subframe last week that has black series polybushed inner & outer anti roll bar and wishbones, put it back together today after stripping cleaning and spraying it, gunna do a rear axle to match
Also cleaned up an exhaust for my pals 172 that we did 6 hours of driving for yesterday...
fair enjoying the rainsports! especialy with the weather weve been having here...
got the clio mot'd the other day, passed without a single advisory!! first time thats ever happened lol
treated it to some carbon exhaust trims since i seen em cheap and the clios been a wee star
Will be fine, been mixed for ages now, and the backs are new enough, when I decide how much I like these I'll either buy 2 more for the back or maybe just new ps3's all round, will see how it goes [emoji5]

New tyres all round if a had the cash [emoji23] the ps3's on the back have been on a while but there's loads of meat left on them
Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
Just want something that works in the wet, if they're not that great al swap the ps3's from the back to the front [emoji23], but the parada spec 2s are excellent in dry but god awful when wet

Just ordered a couple rainsport 3s off ebay with the discount code and got 2 for 65 quid, so chuffed [emoji7] can't wait to be able to use the clio in the wet instead of it just sliding everywhere [emoji23]
