Do they need specific top mounts? I understand that they can run with OE top mounts but if going for PMS top mounts then they need to be specific :S Eventually i want to go for PMS top mounts and strut brace but it wont be till a while after getting the coilovers, is this going to be an issue?

Just had a thought, should of checked with my ICV while i was up there! Bit late now though. Have you secured that breather filter any better?

@GrahamS i'll try and get some tomorrow, few finishing touches yet but looking good. needs the gear gaiter and 182 seats and the inside is done @Dr Jekyll lol all's good mate. Was a laugh although I was worried for a second that i'd have no seat belt ;)

And they are done!!! Finally! Good drive home from Essex, doesn't feel any quicker but then I didn't really give it any stick. feels smoother though and soooo much quieter! All I can say is that its a job well done! Nice clean cam cover, no oil leak, coolant level where it should be :) No...

Good to see you today buddy. Car doesn't look to bad and I'm glad your getting it sorted.

£2500!! fcuk that! I had a quote to do bonnet, front wings, front & rear bumper, roof for £450 from a very very highly recommended place near me.

Kinda agree (although I have a Ph1 and done the ph2 dash conversion), at least all the correct loom will be in place for the dash to work correctly and have all the proper fratures. You'd have to fit a ph1 rear bumper. All other ph2 stuff can stay

Just get a PH1 and do the PH2 dash conversion, if i can do it anyone can

I have 25mm and front with 16" TD et43. Sits peferct imo. well I did have until I some how cross threaded a bolt on the spacers :( 10mm rear stub axle spacers to go on when I get a chance

Is it a 3" tip?

Looks nice buddy. Not sure on the massive exhaust but still looks great. Welcome to the ph1 club :smile:

Didn't see neil's post befoe I posted. Even still i'd go to your choice of repair place than assess the damage and quote on it

Do NOT let any assessors take it away I've had this before a very long time ago fortunately I didn't care to much for the car but it got picked up to be assessed got written off and then stripped of all the good parts and I lost out big time Take to to your choice of repair shop who you know...

Looks lovely mate, really is stunning when clean! I may have to set you to work on the 18th and help clean mine up its a mess! 3000 miles of road grime and bugs all over it! I fear of using the wipers because of the baked on bugs on the windscreen!

Yeah mines in front of the psu, took the odd drive mounts out. ive got 3 3.5 drives above the psu

That looks bloody mint @Addicted kinda wish i had the funds to go dual gpu watercooled. Dont suppose youve seen anyone mount an EK x-res 100 in front of the graphics cards mounted on the back grill?

I would do buddy but bit of a trek and i don't trust the car that much lol Yeah car isn't getting done till a week after that 😧 Already know what car did as it is now just need an after now

As title really... Getting the belts done this month so wanting to get the car out for a proper drive, possibly RR day

Tbh I really wouldn't bother with the 182 look exhaust for the money the they cost, As above just get a pearl black 172 kit, will be same colour bolt straight on and cost a hell of a lot less in the long run.

ahh cool, do you work near parker building supplies by any chance? missus keeps saying she sees a 'silver clio friend' near there where she works

Where about's in East Sussex are you buddy?

haha tell me about it! been a long time coming!

A bit more progress hopefully this week. Drive shaft is going on along with new gearbox oil, hopefully get my front spacers back on and the rear sub axle spacers fitted. Going to get a compression test done so I know if it's worth doing the belts or go full hog and drop another engine in. Then...

Yep @Bobby. This is his old motor he'd put Trendlines in but not for long before it was put back to near standard and sold. All the yellow was removed along with the black(possibly carbon) wrapped badges. i had the vibra engine and gearbox mounts which are still on my ph1, oh and the maxxis...

I want to like the Clio 4 but the god awful standard alloys really put me off. Some Superleggera's or something like that would look spot on with the white

I do love the look of those Hi-Spec brakes but all the issues you've had with them makes me think that brembo's woyld have been a better choice?

Coming along nicely Dan. I've still got to fit my relay and holder for the ph2 das, been sitting in the car for weeks Have you any pics of how your ph2 steering colour surround is fitted? mine seems go be on either wonky or it doesn't line up.

Mk2 Ph2 is at the bottom of the lens, Ph1 is slightly different. not sure about the other models

Nice results. The 3m cutting/polishing compound can be had on its own but its not cheap as you have to get a pretty big bottle. either the Fast Cut Plus or Fast cur XL but they are near on £30 a bottle. I went for the wet/dry sandpaper route along with the 3M Fast Cut Plus, Extra Fine...

So glad you've got rid of that horrible exhaust ;) What's the k-tech stealth like with a decat no silencer mid section?
