Started on the engine loom but it’s much better protected than the Clios original loom 😂
Thought I’d go for Ktecs red race mount and see what these are like.
The gearbox mount is for sale as don’t need that if anyone’s interested
So the conversion kit
Engine mouts
Chassis leg plate
Driveshafts
Filler neck and hoses
Rad and fan which will be 99% for sale soon
Exhaust manifold and down pipe
Will be inspecting it all soon.
I’m not sure what brand the manifold is but it feels pretty cheap tbf but it’s been modified with a vband clamp.
I’ll use it to get the engine in and running and then look into others after
Engine and box now ready to drop in
Brake hoses are made and fitted, steering rack will be in soon also
Wiring is next on the list.
And I need someone to buy my bike to fund more shiny parts for the Clio type r please
A lot of work and money 😂
Engine and box alone are 1500ish.

Yeah please be good to see. I was thinking about going that route until this kit popped up.
Fingers crossed, if you send Nick a wheel he’ll trail fit it over the brakes before you buy
Thanks bud.
I was going full custom loom with DTA ecu on the ITB engine but not really sure on this yet.
The Honda KproV4 seems an incredibly easy option with it fitting the OE loom etc and seems a really good piece of kit.
Once the engine is in I’ll look more in to that.
The Kits really nice but designed around the Braid wheels that puremotorsport sell. Nick doesn’t think this kit will fit under TD 1.2s which I’ll need to address 😂
I’d be very interested in seeing the tubular subframe and arms if you don’t mind posting pic or PM them?
Spent some time on the Clio fitting some nee parts.
Started by getting my Laguna hubs built up. I’ve machined these to be able to produce much more camber and accept a large ball joint pin bolt.
Got a 20 tonne press to press the bearings in which worked really well.
The hubs needed the...
