That's very kind of you mate thank you!
I think I seem to remember you Clio coming in for its MOT.
I hope the car is going well and if you need any help or advice just give me a shout!
Rob.
I bought my wife one of those A4's cracking estate. Perfect for lugging all her crap about and the dog!
Even though I had to shell out for a new power steering rack last week. Was not cheap...
I used to work for Euro Car Parts and dealt with a lot of the performance parts. Those Pagid RS pads came very highly regarded, not cheap though!
Think I'll follow suit and use a brush, its much easier and cleaner than a can, you get a much more even coat too.
Every track!? That window will...
I'm running standard Pagid discs and pads, and considering they are non performance parts they didn't do too bad!
Did you paint the calipers whilst they were still fitted, or did you remove them? I've used Hammerite smooth in the past on my Toyota Glanza and never had any problems!
That's very...
It was mate! A couple of lads even managed to win three prizes each, lol!
Yeah I've got Goodridge braided lines fitted with ATE Super Blue brake fluid which seemed to hold up okay during the morning session.
I was thinking of painting my calipers and wasn't sure what brand to go for. Ideally...
Got my CSS15 raffle prize delivered today!
Thank you @FinishlineUK
Looking forward to getting these fitted. Might give you a call and get the same pads ordered up for the rear also!
Cheers bud!
They do come pretty raw, and require a bit of preparation. Nothing to serious though!
I didn't actually powder coat them, I'm lucky that my mate @KrisRS182 who has fitted the same cage to his Clio, used to be a painter and still has access to the body shop where he use to work...
Hi @Matthew
I'm using one of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/98-05-ren...utograss-x1-/131567319145?hash=item1ea205f869
With the cross and extra harness bar. For the money they are very good! Make sure to fit them with proper spreader plates.
Quite a few people on the forum are using this...
I did get some footage mate, I borrowed my friends GoPro (fully intend to buy my own) but I've only managed to upload the clips to Facebook so far.
I'll try and get them up on the forum over the weekend, I only got a couple of videos as his battery was dreadful and I didn't have a long power...
Thank's Dan!
Same bud I saw your car several times, and I was camped just over in the corner from where I think you were. In hindsight I should of just wandered over there asking for a Welshman! :wink:
Hope there's another opportunity to meet up soon? Possibly on track somewhere, or if not...
One thing I was disappointed with, I didn't see a single MK1 Clio! I really wanted to have a good look round a Williams.
If there was on there, and I was just being blind I apologize!
Very kind of you Mark! Your Ph1 looked stunning as always, looking forward to seeing what you do next to it!
Was great to finally speak to you in person, and maybe have another catch up say CSS16!? [emoji6]
Yes mate for sure!
They really do sound fantastic, there was a few cars running bodies at CSS15 and not only do they sound epic they go really well too! Even bothering the turbo'd 182's.
I will follow your thread with interest bud, to see your thoughts on the bodies once everything is sorted!
Thanks Matt
Was great to meet you and have a chat on Saturday. The ST looked good out on track, even though I know your not 100% sold on it yet! [emoji6]
Haven't done an update for a while so here goes!
The belts were due this September, not based on mileage but coming up to the five year interval.
So I thought I'd get them done a little earlier especially with a track session booked at CSS15.
Me and a mechanic friend from work tackled the job...
It looked superb on track! Even pushing that turbo'd Arctic blue 182 out of the way!
Such a shame Renault didn't offer that colour for 182's as standard. My only criticism though is that I think the car would look much better with a standard rear bumper, but that's just my opinion!
That the one with red wing mirror's and the rear bumper cut out Dan?
If so, it sounded mental! Had a good look round after his session he kindly left the bonnet up.
Cheeky little ABS delete as his n/s/r tyre kept locking up lol! Either way its made me want to put bodies on the Trophy!
Same here bud. Was a shame not to catch up!
I saw your's on track, looked lovely! I kept on trying to hear out for a heavy welsh accent, lol!
Next time for sure matey!
