I've moved on, but not by choice. I unfortunately wrote my Supercharged Trophy off last year (which was my third Clio Sport)
I took it as an opportunity to purchase a car I've always wanted to own.
However as I'm sure we can all agree Clio's at least in sport guise, are truly incredible...
Crap pictures I know, but just wanted to get a few up to show off the carbon mirrors!
To say I'm pleased is an understatement! I've always wanted a set of these mirrors and nearly bought a pair before I even found the right classic! [emoji23]
I've now got the mini mud flaps fitted, clear...
The 'scoob' scared me half to death over the weekend! (It's been the first time in a while I've managed to go for a decent blast)
High speed sweeping corners are not very confidence inspiring! Very twitchy, and just generally not right...
Further inspection at work finds most of the bushes in...
He comennted on a thread I made on the Type RA forum, and gave them a lot of praise!
I'm undecided on what road tyre I'm going to replace the Vredestein's with, but as for track work my choices are limited as 215/40/17 is an oddball size so I think I'm going for the Federal RSR's
Cheers Scott,
I think it will be a perfect finishing touch to the exterior. I was looking at a set of genuine S201 mirrors but they go for £450! I feel the carbon fibre will be a fair compromise...
I've also got a non chopped front bumper sorted! Just waiting for it to be removed from the...
I couldn't wait for long! 😂
Ordered from a chap called Paul from: http://pjperformance.co.uk/product/subaru-impreza-classic-1992-2001-ra-wrc-style-carbon-fibre-door-mirrors/ (Was previously 'EVOBITS')
@adamlstr they do some lovely parts for Evo's
These are on the shopping list...

IMO they will suit the car very well!

Thanks Ross,
I'm hoping to get the first track day booked sometime around April, which will allow me to hopefully get some decent GoPro footage!
They only weigh 1200 kg! It's pretty lively!
Yes mate other cars are certainly allowed. I'm booked on track this year in a non Clio, but for the last two years there's been a great variety on track!

Stupidly I completely forgot to ask... I've messaged him to let me know what it was. If I recall the previous owner mentioned the torque figure was similar to the bhp. I'll find out though! [emoji5]
Cheers bud, it's a lot of fun!
The bumper is on the to do list, I have a 'saved search' on...
The results are in!
Better than its last session on the rollers (312) but it drives so much better! The way the boost comes in is fantastic! Duncan has also tweaked the anti-lag which is hilarious oh and if I get bored of that he's also added launch control... More importantly however is...
If there's track time still available by the end of the month, I'll be going for sure mate!
Your more than welcome to join our little convoy (Me, @KrisRS182, and @loggyboy ) have driven up together the last two years. We travel up on the Friday, and stay both nights though! You a camping fan...
Thanks Rich, it's been a bumpy start to ownership!
Hopefully onwards and upwards from now on!
Cheers Scott! :smile:
I'm still looking forward to our meet! You definitely going to CSF17?
It's been what feels like a lifetime, but in reality only about a month, the Impreza is back on the road!
The baffled sump from AS Performance took a while to arrive which delayed things, as they take a brand new sump and modify it to suit. Once arrived we were able to fit the other...
I didn't realise it was for sale on SN. I came across the ad on the Type RA forum.
It used to be on a 52 plate, but the previous owner wanted a more age correct reg. He went to the effort of getting a letter of conformity from Subaru confirming it's build date, to allow a M reg!
Haha thanks...
