    Brake cooling

    Is the Brembo 4 pot conversion an option? There's a set for sale in the classifieds.

    Seeing 1990's cars on the roads nowadays....

    My friend popped round to where I was having the Clio worked on the other weekend in this. Not quite 90s but they stopped production in 91. 1 owner from new, garage stored with 25k He gave me the keys to have a drive out, wow! Blast from the past but showed me how much has changed, no power...

    Solid front brake discs?

    The worrying thing is the garage was going to fit them? I ordered a set of front discs for my daughters 1.2 Clio from ECP using the reg number and they gave me solids, even hers has vented discs. I can't imagine for one minute they'd even fit for offset differences.

    Ricardo's Pearl White 220 Trophy

    Thank you, yes I was lucky to have the mechanic recommended to me so he's now going to be my go to. I should be ordering the Pro Alloy FMIC and he's already booked in to fit it. Since my friend Matt moved to France I've had to go to various companies for work so hopefully now I can stay with the...

    Ricardo's Pearl White 220 Trophy

    It's getting there! To be fair I did say to myself I wouldn't change a thing but the petrol head who enjoys trackdays in me knew it would. I really wanted the 4 pot calipers when I had the Liquid Yellow 200 so I saved up and bought them. Appreciate you taking the time to read the update, I'm...

    Ricardo's Pearl White 220 Trophy

    Tyre pressure gauge arrived, £10.95. Just need to sort a pump out then I can find optimum tyre pressures when out on trackdays.

    Ricardo's Pearl White 220 Trophy

    Thought I was buying an already decent car that didn't need changing! Oh well, what's been done to be fair hasn't changed the looks just enhanced their own areas. Once the intercooler is done then everything that's been compromised due to the mapping has been covered, then in theory it's just...

    Ricardo's Pearl White 220 Trophy

    Thanks mate! Well I've booked the Clio in with Chris down in Ashford for intercooler fitting the second weekend of July so that's dictated where my money's going! Was hoping to do a other evening session maybe the end of July but I'll see as if CSS18 is in August I may as well wait for that. I...

    Ricardo's Pearl White 220 Trophy

    Brands Hatch Indy circuit Wednesday 13th June Booked a week before and pre Brembo and H&R fitment, my plan was to give the parts a shakedown so Brands seemed the perfect place as its less than an hour away for me. I'll do the update in parts sections as well as general text in between. Arrived...

    Clio 200T Badge removal

    If you're referring to the diamonds you can buy gloss black ones that go over the top of the originals. If you Google Diamond Performance on Ebay or go to the Cliosport.net Facebook and tag Paul Brandrick he should reply.

    Pre Brands blow over, just to say I NEVER use the brush. Really needs a going over, wax and seal.

    Good to meet up with everyone last night, apologies for not getting round to speak to ALL of you. From where I live in Southend I navigated my way on the country roads from Rayleigh over to Hanningfield, onto to Stock where there's a Shell garage for V Power, then up to Galleywood, Writtle and...

    Ricardo's Pearl White 220 Trophy

    The Meg 250 calipers are indeed bigger, I've been told they're the same bolt locations but can't answer as to why they didn't go ahead and use them. I think the Meg 250 discs are 340mm where the Clios are 320mm. The disc offset is different as well on the Megane but it's something that could...

    Ricardo's Pearl White 220 Trophy

    RenaultSport did as they used the Brembo 4 pot calipers on the Clio Cup race cars, at some point in time they changed to PFC 4 pot calipers using a 2 piece disc setup. Who knows if we share the same hub setup but I imagine what will be different is the disc offset between the OE Brembo disc and...

    Machine alloys or longer hub bolts?

    Assuming the wheel nuts have the same taper angle as the wheels,and there's no paint on the wheels stopping the nut mating up to the wheel 100%. Step away from the stepper drill bit, do not DIY the wheel bolt holes AT ALL. Bar changing the studs to longer ones you could have the backs of the...

    It's a nice step up in power for sure! What with 260 torque as well I'm more than happy with the outcome.

    Ricardo's Pearl White 220 Trophy

    Bird s**t! I hate it, the sad thing is I don't have a unit or garage so as mentioned it's open to the elements which brings the birds. They decided to drop a couple of bombs on the pearl so I thought it was a good excuse to jetwash and QD it. On a side note I've been speaking to a person who...
