I use ferodo ds3000 mate thinking of going to the newer ones ds1.11 I think they're called or maybe even something else, they are mega squeaky though lol but don't bother me as it's purely a toy, I'll find a video for reference lol
That's a good thought actually I never even considered that mate! You've thrown a spanner in the works now
Just standard rear brake set up mate
I do often wish I reshelled into a cup shell but when it's clean I love it lol
How you getting on with the ph1 sort the braking issues?
Started pulling interior looms out and just working out what colour to paint the interior and cage, I'm swaying toward a ford sea grey interior with a red roll cage? Any suggestions ??
Some pictures to see the state it's in at the moment, must invest in a car cover!
Cheers guys! It was such a spur of the moment decision to go to brands, my office pretty much behind brands hatch infact if i stand in the car park i can see paddock hill bend lol so i just though 'f**k it' and left early and went and got the clio i wish i put my track tyres on now but still for...
The car stayed like that for a while i done a few track days in it Done snetterton back in september, a few clios there any one from on here??
Most recently was Brands Indy, a lot of traffic but really good fun out on track again a few clios were there so had a good drive with most of them...
Little rolling shot on route to BHP 2015
Got a really good reception a lot of my friends were happy to see me in a clio again as it had been about 2 and a bit years since they last saw me in one lol
Got some great track photos also
Felt the car was amazing to drive really quick and...
Hi guys !
Bored at work so thought I'd do a little build thread of my Clio !
It started a few years ago when I was 18 nearly 19 I was after a new car and I had just been to test drive a Corsa Vxr and something didn't feel right,
So on the way back my friend suggested I looked at his mates...
Yes mate most defiantly!
My car seemed to be using oil on the last few outings suspected piston rings so this is my opportunity to have a go at rebuilding an engine then I'll send the engine somewhere to be timed up correctly because I know how easy they are to get wrong (originally my car made...
Brilliant nice one!
Mines gonna be far from perfect mate but I'm not very mechanically minded so I've always been on the sidelines even building the car up until now my friends have done the majority of the work so this winters work i want to have a go myself albeit under supervision from them...
Ah what a fail! Oh well mate this car isn't gonna be seeing the Tarmac for the rest of the year now I doubt so I'm in no rush for them but I'd love to get on the next batch I'll have to keep my ears on it lol
@NorthloopCup thanks mate, well I've bought a 197 engine and gear box to convert into the car but the more I think about it the more i don't want the aggro of one day on a track day I snap a drive shaft and I'm stuck instead of nipping to euro's to get me out of trouble if that makes sense? So...
Latest picture from tonight getting it ready for a winter overhaul!
Now realised I'm in the wrong section is there any way I can easily move this over to the projects bit?
I will get around to doing a build thread although I have done a little write up in here earlier today http://www.cliosport.net/threads/seans-bg-182-track-car-introduction.782750/
Fit the pms strengthening kits to rear beam and subframe, gripper diff and Megane 5th gear, possibly itb's and fit my fibreglass boot and bonnet and possibly buy fibreglass doors!
Oh and paint the inside but have no idea what colour... Looks like this at the mo
Hi there,
Been on here for a while but rarely post up. Recently been looking at other peoples cars and must say I'm mighty impressed. I'm from kent and I have a 182 as a track car started out a few years ago when I was 18 I bought a Clio 182 as a stop gap and fell in love with it...

Hi, thanks for the replies.
They it over my oz ultralaggera track wheels with 10mm soacers guess I'll need some td1.2's then.
Also, I have a stud and wheel nut conversion, can any one reccomend any hub centric spacers for me?
Thanks for your help!
I have recently had my brembos machined down to fit with my 280 mm discs
I understand the wheels need spacing before they fit on but i must of put on like 35mm worth of spacers today, the caliper fits in the middle the top of the caliper hits, do these wheels just not fit or have I done...
Hi guys I have my 197 calipers being rebuilt at the mo and the guy rebuilding them can machine them down to fit on my car with 280mm discs, but I need to know what needs machining and what measurements so I can let him know, I've had a search and couldn't find my answers, any help would be...
