Certainly is matey. Yep that's exactly what I was after. Got bored of waiting for it to be produced. Had a lot of positive comments on it this week! Very very pleased with it, even my mum liked it. Cheers mate, the sunstrip is an ebay job 8"...

You forgot the staple trick! We de-pinned the SPA plug using staples so we didn't have to cut a huge hole in the bulkhead. That is all.

Cage What an eventful weekend! Friday night, just gone half six, I popped my earplugs in, threw my bags in the car and left Greenwich for the 200 mile drive up to Hull having been mega excited for what lay ahead the next day. Earlier in the week I had spoken to the receptionist at the hotel to...

@Akay thanks matey. Maybe yours is after mine then! You understand correctly with the airbags. If you have a look at the photo on one of the previous slides those are the wires to leave in. I've kept the airbag ecu so the light turns on and off for MOT purposes. It's also used as part of the vin...

Hi Adam It's a custom cage being built by @Tom Johnson so it goes through the dash unlike the SD one.

same experience here. Any negatives are blow out of proportion, it's a great mod.

Evening chappies The cold weather has really hit now. We did a bit of final winter work on the cup yesterday before the next track day at Brands in december and it was freezing outside. Managed to get a couple of bits done to the car though. Brake Ducts - these were actually very easy to fit...

Couple of updates to keep the thread alive as everyone goes into winter hibernation. Drove the car briefly on Sunday which of course was huge fun. The seats at the moment are too far back and need moving forward for the sake of control and the new cage. I'll do that at cage fitting time though...

Cheers Dan, must have a look through yours soon, seems to progress very fast! It's a DRE shift light. It's possibly one of the easiest things to fit, live, ground and signal wire from the coil pack.

Painting finished. Got the seats in today and the shift light in. That was a quick sentence to write but it took ages to get both things done right. Big thanks to @Martin. for coming down and helping with all the cup jobs. Cage next. I'm wondering if it's actually going to be possible to get a...

Thanks matey, it is great to have it finally done but god I miss having unlimited time at my disposal! The car is on 438 cat cams, rs lower inlet, ac and pas delete, decat, 182 manifold and a terrible induction kit! Yeah it would be usable if I bored it out but I'm looking to get around 250 out...

Evening Chaps, few little updates on the Clio. Weekend just gone I headed down to Surrey Rolling Road, arrange by @TimR26, with buddies @AlexW @Sash and @Martin. It was a very good day and I was over the moon to see the cup run 196.3 bhp after saying I'd be happy with anything over 180. It shows...

Was @Timmsy polo. Totally standard, book figure of 190 was thrown out the window. Apparently VW always understate.

Thanks for organising the day Tim, thoroughly enjoyed it, especially after my run. Was good news for the cup today, it made more power then ktec claimed! Hilarious amounts of oil coming out the back. Not bad considering the engine and ECU came out of another car. A great day with great mates.

Assume I need cash or is card good?

Cheers boi, would have missed that

Sounds like fuel system needs looking at, do leak off on the injectors and report back with how much they let out over 1 minute.

Very quick progress Matty boi! Like the quick and new idea for the hydraulic clutch and heater. Welding coming on nice too :)

😂 Cheers matey, I'm old in the head that's for sure. Spent a little time on the car today fitting the PMS brace and top mounts and looking over it after the trackday. Thankfully the car has had solid mounts on in a previous life so it had pre-drilled holes for them, huge time saver...
